Abstract

In data collection of the human physiological and psychological conditions for mental healthcare (e.g., work engagement), measurement methods using environment-installed sensors and questionnaire surveys have been often used. However, these approaches are not practical in continuous data collection, due to the large burden for people. Recently, in association with advancing sensing technology with IoTs, sensing by small sensors and wearable devices has become possible easily. In this paper, we aim to establish a simple and general sensing method based on a mobile application for measuring physiological and psychological state of office workers and environmental state. Through the experiment for 2-3 weeks involving 60 office workers of four Japanese companies by using our application, we succeeded to create a dataset of physiological, environment, and mental state. This paper explains the developed mobile application, experimental procedure, and a summary of the data collected in the experiment.
