Sensorized map using Human Probe

Environment monitoring in urban areas is becoming important to provide information for safety and relief for daily lives. Wireless sensor devices are regarded as means of such monitoring. However, it is not efficient to deploy the sensors more than the necessity in the city. It is efficient to deploy the sensors on the place where many people move around. Therefore, we install sensors to walking people and acquire information to complement the embedded sensors. Based on the idea, we have extended WINFO, human probe, a previously developed system, to accommodate reading peoplepsilas walking states obtained by pressure signals at the peoplepsilas feet. Our goal is to create a map utilizing the information obtained by a collection of the walking signals.
