IoT, Wearable sensing, Animal behaviors
With the advancement of sensor technology, capturing real-world phenomena using sensors on game consoles or high-performance mobile devices, such as smartphones, has become more accessible. However, since the majority of sensor data consists of numerical series, it's essential to analyze and abstract this data so it can be interpreted by humans. I have delved into sensor data processing methods to estimate and analyze the behaviors of humans and animals based on the data from these sensors. Such studies can pave the way for numerous real-world applications, from enhancing worker performance and monitoring the elderly to promoting coexistence with wild animals.
