Studies

Managed, End-to-End Data Crowd Sourcing

Oftentimes, you want to collect measurements from multiple participants. Sensor Logger’s built-in Studies is an out-of-the-box solution for crowd-sourcing recordings in a streamlined way. You can control how data should be collected from the participants, ensuring data consistency. Participants can send their recordings back to you seamlessly via Sensor Logger’s secure cloud in a single tap, all whilst being privacy compliant. You can even set up custom questionnaires for participants to fill out to accompany their contributions.

Comprehensive Data Collection Management

Studies address three critical challenges in collecting sensor data from phones and research participants:

  • Configuration Consistency: Ensure all devices are set up correctly, including sensor types, sampling frequency, smart rules, and export formats.

  • Effortless Data Transfer: Simplify the data submission process, eliminating the need for cumbersome uploads and reminders.

  • Built for Scale: Manage data collection from a few participants to thousands, with infrastructure designed to handle large-scale studies efficiently.

Sensor Logger’s Studies feature offers a seamless, end-to-end workflow. As an investigator, you define every aspect of your study, from data collection parameters to participant instructions and privacy statements. Participants join via a single link or QR code, ensuring correct configuration and consistent data collection. After recording, they can upload data securely with a single tap. You can even set up automated upload reminders, freeing you from the hassle of follow-ups.

Beyond Sensor Data

Studies allow you to collect more than just sensor data. Participants can provide additional information through customizable questionnaires, featuring text, numerical inputs, multiple-choice options, and even signatures. Questionnaires can be presented when participants join the study or after each recording session.

Seamless Cross-Platform Compatibility

Sensor Logger’s Studies work seamlessly on both iOS and Android devices. This cross-platform functionality ensures that anyone can participate, regardless of their device. Sensor Logger harmonizes data discrepancies between platforms, allowing you to focus on analysis rather than data format inconsistencies.

Out of the Box Privacy & Compliance

Privacy and compliance are at the core of Sensor Logger’s Studies. Every study includes an explicit privacy policy, ensuring transparency for participants. Participants must opt-in and explicitly upload their data, which is encrypted during transit and accessible only to the study investigator. Our infrastructure, powered by Cloudflare, ensures robust data protection.
