CrowdSense 1.3.4

CrowdSense is an open-source, continuous sensing application designed for iOS devices, leveraging the SensingKit library to facilitate sensor data collection. It offers researchers an accessible interface to capture diverse sensor data streams with a focus on preserving user privacy. All data collected are anonymized and require explicit user permission prior to sensor activation. Data can be shared within the application or accessed externally via iTunes File Sharing.

The tool supports a broad range of sensors, including:

• Accelerometer
• Gyroscope
• Magnetometer
• Device Motion (Gravity, User Acceleration, Magnetic Field, Rotation, Attitude)
• Motion Activity
• Pedometer
• Altimeter
• Location Services
• Heading
• iBeacon™ Proximity
• Eddystone™ Proximity
• Battery Status
• Microphone Input
