Description

This Poster was presented on the Symposium of the DiTraRe Leibniz Science Campus held in December 2025. It corresponds with a paper analyzing a publication by author M. Wieczorek. In this publication the author discusses the efficiency and potential risks of current technologies in self-trackers as tools meant to improve the life of its wearer. Wieczorek demands a human-centric approach to technology to improve the use and minimize the risks of the technology. We took this publication one step further by highlighting the benefits of an interdisciplinary approach to research questions like the ones discussed by the original publication. We added imput especially from a legal standpoint.
