OpenDoTT Deployment Dataset: ESR3 Communities and Neighbourhoods

The overall aim of the PhD is to explore the potential use of Internet of Things (IoT) to support the creation and sustainment of community technology/infrastructure and other publicly shared objects. For the second year, the Dundee West End Community Fridge was considered to allow continuity from the first year.  

 

The research followed a mixed approach consisting of a prototype and a field visit, that were supplemented using storyboards and a Miro board. 7 UK-based participants contributed to the research through in-person and 2 virtual interviews and workshops. A 5-day field visit was organised to allow in-person participation as online recruitment did not yield many participants.  

This Dataset contains: 

Field notes 

Assorted photographs of the prototypes and other activities 

Storyboards 

Sample forms, documents and announcements 

Participant recruitment tools
