Abstract

At the University of Washington, the RFID Ecosystem creates a microcosm for the Internet of Things. The authors developed a suite of Web-based, user-level tools and applications designed to empower users by facilitating their understanding, management, and control of personal RFID data and privacy settings. They deployed these applications in the RFID Ecosystem and conducted a four-week user study to measure trends in adoption and utilization of the tools and applications as well as users' qualitative reactions.
