Abstract
In this paper we present the design of a cost-effective
wearable sensor to detect and indicate the strength and
other characteristics of the electric field emanating
from a laptop display. Our Electromagnetic Field
Detector Bracelet can provide an immediate awareness
of electric fields radiated from an object used
frequently. Our technology thus supports awareness of
ambient background emanation beyond human
perception. We discuss how detection of such radiation
might help to “fingerprint” devices and aid in
applications that require determination of indoor
location.
