Abstract

One challenge in the context-aware environment is to detect user's presence in a natural way and to process such information in order to provide suitable services for Ugers. This paper introduces PlaceSense, an application using bluetooth technology, building on top of the Place-based Virtual Community architecture that can detect users presence for triggering services automatically. The paper also discusses the different use-cases of bluetooth technology for community sensing.
