本文综述了遥测技术的最新进展，遥测技术是一类无线信息系统技术，可以远程收集和传输各种行为和环境数据。遥测包括将身体传感器编织到衣服物品中的可穿戴计算机、将传感器和发射器无缝地嵌入到环境中的无处不在的计算机，以及可以记录认知和情感状态的手持设备，例如移动的电话和个人数字助理。提供遥测应用的例子来说明这种技术如何被用于行为科学，在自然环境中不引人注目地重复收集生理，行为，环境，认知和情感数据。还讨论了与隐私和保密性，实际考虑，以及使用遥测时的统计和测量挑战有关的特殊问题。
This article reviews recent advances in telemetrics, a class of wireless information systems technology that can collect and transmit a wide variety of behavioral and environmental data remotely. Telemetrics include wearable computers that weave on-body sensors into articles of clothing, ubiquitous computers that embed sensors and transmitters seamlessly into the environment, and handheld devices, such as mobile phones and personal digital assistants, that can record cognitive and affective states. Examples of telemetric applications are provided to illustrate how this technology has been used in the behavioral sciences to unobtrusively and repeatedly gather physiological, behavioral, environmental, cognitive, and affective data in natural settings. Special issues relating to privacy and confidentiality, practical considerations, and statistical and measurement challenges when telemetrics are used are also discussed.
