ABSTRACT
Health-related IT products (e.g., Fitbit) support persuasive technologies to reinforce an individual's desired behaviors. While these products are dedicated to certain health behaviors, such as walking or specific types of sports, IoT at home can be integrated more broadly throughout one's daily life. To address this opportunity, this paper aims to shed light on the use of domestic IoT that can foster changes toward healthy behaviors through a 3-week explorative field trial. This paper reports two major goals of health-promoting technologies using IoT as well as different persuasive techniques according to the temporal phases of before, during, and after the health behaviors.
