Description
How to Do Things with Sensors explores the ways in which things are made do-able with and through sensors. Jennifer Gabrys examines how worlds are made sense-able and actionable through the instructional mode of citizen-sensing projects.
The proliferation of how-to guides for sensor technologies has led to a new genre of digital instruction, raising questions about why this form of guidance has become so prevalent in the digital age.
This book is part of the Ideas First Short series, which features thought-in-process scholarship that prioritises intense analysis, questioning, and speculation.
