IoT: Designing for Human Values

ABSTRACT

This one-day, embedded workshop will explore the design intersections of human values and internet of things (IoT) applications. In a day-long session we will configure and build small IoT devices (using the Particle platform), then deploy them to collect, share and publish the data they harvest throughout the conference. During the conference program we will reconvene to debate how a world of connected devices intersects with human values (such as privacy and transparency) and to articulate the specific challenges for designing a value-conscious IoT.
