Communication about sensors and communication
through sensors: localizing the Internet of Things in rural
communities
Internet of Things (IoT) sensor networks are an emerging technology at the center of the datafication and optimization of far-reaching environmental
infrastructures—from “smart cities” to workplace efficiencies. However, this low-power, low-cost…

Mediating social support through sensor-based
technologies for children’s health behavior change
Sensor-based technologies (SBTs) allow users to track biometric data and feature interactions that foster social support. The social support from
SBTs can increase intrinsic motivation to engage in and sustain positive health behaviors. Guided by…

Sensor work: enabling the interoperation of
autonomous vehicles
This article examines the “sensor work” carried out in the development of autonomous vehicles which, without sensor data, would not and
arguably still do not, have the capacity to decide on where, and how, to drive. I begin by discussing three…

Digital governance with smart sensors: exploring grid
administration in Zhejiang’s “Future Community”
This study explored sensor-based e-government practices in eight pilot “Future Communities” in Zhejiang Province, China. Adopting the ap-
proach of “e-government in everyday practice,” it examines how grid members at the grassroots level make sense…

To intervene or not to intervene: young adults’ views on
when and how to intervene in online harassment
Incidents of online harassment are increasing and can have significant consequences for victims. Witnesses (“digital bystanders”) can be crucial
in identifying and challenging harassment. This study considered when and how young adults intervene…

Nalaquq (“it is found”): a knowledge co-production
framework for environmental sensing and communication
in Indigenous arctic communities
In 2007, the Yup’ik village of Quinhagak contacted archaeologists after locals found precontact artifacts on a nearby beach. This collaboration led
to the subsequent excavation of Nunalleq, an important ancestral site threatened by climate change.…

Digital parenting divides: the role of parental capital and
digital parenting readiness in parental digital mediation
This study investigates digital parenting divides, or how parents’ strategies for regulating their children’s online activities differ based on their
available resources and digital parenting readiness (i.e., digital parenting self-efficacy,…
