概要	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.	API-based data collection is a systematic technique in which a researcher sends structured requests to an application programming interface to retrieve data automatically from digital platforms, databases, or services. It is the primary method used in computational social science to gather large-scale social media records, government open data, financial data streams, and scientific repository content in machine-readable formats such as JSON or XML, enabling reproducible and scalable data acquisition that manual collection cannot match.
