A variety of portable heatstroke risk alert devices are available on the market in Japan; however, an issue in such an environmental measurement device is that the measurement might not be correct if the instrument is not outside, such as in a trousers pocket. We experimentally show the on-body placement-dependency of the measurement. To avoid possible distrust on an over-estimated alert and being at higher risk for heatstroke due to under-estimation, we designed a system that generates an alert message by reflecting the storing position. A prototype system was implemented on a commercial Android-based smartphone, which collects temperature and relative humidity readings from an external device via USB. |
