Sensor Data Collector

Our main objective for this project is to enhance mobile security. We all know that today's smart phones have a large collection of sensors. We intend to do hardware level profiling of these sensors to enhance authentication. In other words, we intend to figure out if the right person is using the authorized device. Such policy can ensure that unauthorized persons are not accessing the system through unauthorized devices.

We would like participants to run our app under three different scenarios like- while walking, running or sitting. The app needs to run for only 10 minutes under each scenario and we would like participants to repeat each scenarios at least 5 times. Our app will collects sensor readings from smartphones and then uploads those data to a remote server situated inside the University of Illinois campus (UIUC) for analysis. Note that no personal data of the user is being tracked or uploaded.

We hope you will participate in this project and help us enhance the security of smart devices.
