Σύνοψη	Mobile sensor data collection uses the built-in sensors of smartphones, tablets, or wearable devices to capture behavioral, physiological, and environmental data in real-world settings. Sensors such as accelerometers, GPS, heart rate monitors, ambient light detectors, and microphones record data passively or on demand, enabling researchers to study human behavior with high temporal resolution outside the laboratory.	Longitudinal sensor data collection deploys physical or digital sensors to record phenomena continuously or at regular intervals across an extended study period — days, months, or years. Unlike one-shot measurement, the repeated temporal structure captures change, trajectory, and variability in outcomes such as physical activity, environmental exposure, sleep, or physiological state. The approach combines the ecological validity of real-world sensing with the analytical power of longitudinal design.
