Participatory Sensing - An Interview with Deborah Estrin - O’Reilly Radar

The iPhone is a rich portable computer with onboard sensors. Specifically, it is a location-aware (GPS), motion-aware (accelerometer), directionally-aware (digital compass) visually aware (camera being used to scan QA codes or serve as visual input), sonically aware (microphone and speakers), always-connected (wireless or 3Gs) handheld computer. Every operative word in that sentence is deeply meaningful and rich with possibilities we have just begun to explore. The iPhone does a whole lot more than display information. It is an environmental sensor. Its value lies just as much in sensing information as it does in displaying information.

About:

This blog is about "INTERACTION". We as human are living with interacting everything from small object to music and tremendous amount of information per daily and etc. So i have three focus on this blog. First, it is infographics and data visualization. Second is about interactive prototyping technique such as arduino and processing or related project. Third is about design thinking as framework to excavate design beyond design.
