This award is funded under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Public Law 111-5).0854399/0854445Mankoff/LandayThis research will leverage mobile technologies and sensors to empower individuals with personal feedback about their carbon emissions and suggestions on how to improve. The project will be on transportation activities, with three foci: (1) sensing individual carbon footprints using commodity mobile phones, (2) developing feedback visualizations on the web and on phones that support in-the-place awareness about carbon footprints that explicitly handle issues of uncertainty at the user interface level, and (3) validating and testing techniques in the domain of transportation. Field deployments will explore the relative accuracy of the sensors employed and the impact of visualizations on users' ability to identify which areas represent opportunities for reduction. High school outreach will be included through CMU's Green Design Apprenticeship program.

该奖项是根据2009年美国复苏和再投资法案（公法111-5）资助的。0854399/0854445 Mankoff/Landay这项研究将利用移动的技术和传感器，使个人能够对他们的碳排放量和如何改进的建议提供个人反馈。 该项目将涉及交通活动，有三个重点：（1）使用普通移动的电话感知个人碳足迹，（2）在网络和电话上开发反馈可视化，支持在用户界面层面明确处理不确定性问题的碳足迹意识，以及（3）验证和测试交通领域的技术。 实地部署将探索所用传感器的相对准确性，以及可视化对用户识别哪些领域代表减少机会的能力的影响。 高中推广将包括通过CMU的绿色设计学徒计划。
