Sunny Consolvo,David W. McDonald,Tammy Toscos,Mike Y. Chen,Jon E. Froehlich,Beverly L. Harrison,Predrag Klasnja,Anthony LaMarca,Louis LeGrand,Ryan Libby,Ian Smith,James A. Landay +11 more
TL;DR: This work has developed a system, UbiFit Garden, which uses on-body sensing and activity inference and a personal, mobile display to encourage physical activity to address the growing rate of sedentary lifestyles.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Design requirements for technologies that encourage physical activity
TL;DR: Houston, a prototype mobile phone application for encouraging activity by sharing step count with friends is described and four design requirements for technologies that encourage physical activity are presented, derived from a three-week long in situ pilot study that was conducted with women who wanted to increase their physical activity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tanzeem Choudhury,Sunny Consolvo,Beverly L. Harrison,Jeffrey Hightower,Anthony LaMarca,Louis LeGrand,Ali Rahimi,Adam D. Rea,G. Bordello,Bruce Hemingway,Predrag Klasnja,Karl Koscher,James A. Landay,Jonathan Lester,Danny Wyatt,D. Haehnel +15 more
TL;DR: In this article, a wearable activity recognition system is proposed to recognize human activities from body-worn sensors, which can further open the door to a world of healthcare applications, such as fitness monitoring, eldercare support, long-term preventive and chronic care, and cognitive assistance.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Location disclosure to social relations: why, when, & what people want to share
TL;DR: A three-phased formative study of whether and what users are willing to disclose about their location to social relations shows that the most important factors were who was requesting, why the requesters wanted the participant's location, and what level of detail would be most useful to the requester.
