Professor Eiman Kanjo
Pervasive Sensing, Nottingham Trent University
Biography
Professor Kanjo’s Smart Sensing team at Nottingham Trent University has successfully developed and set up a social prescribing platform called TagWithMe.com at both Rufford Country Park and Highbury Hospital in collaboration with Nottingham County Council and Nottinghamshire Healthcare respectively. TagWithMe is a gamification platform that aims at improving well-being by visiting local parks and being physically active. The platform utilises wireless tagging features that send challenges, AI quizzes, and prompts directly to the user’s mobile device. Eiman also works closely with Nottingham City Council on developing its Smart Nottingham initiative including the current deployment of mobile environmental monitoring stations in Nottingham city centre.
