'''In addition, it is proposed that the raw collected data be made available in real-time to the attendees, and that a contest be held for the most interesting use of that data by the end of the conference''' (such as: mapping attendee travels; heat-mapping sessions; doing fine-grained user location to determine who interacted with who at the conference; determining how many people left in the middle of each session; calculating the number of trips to non-session areas such as the break room, Tim Horton's, or the registration desk; mapping when people gave feedback on a presentation; calculating tardiness; figuring out which presentations ran overtime; etc...)
== Information Package ==
Each user will be given an information brochure containing:
* An overview of the Peapod device
* How to use the Peapod to give feedback on sessions
* Information about the data collected by the Peapod
* Data-mining contest details
== Privacy Issues ==
It is proposed that:
* Attendees will be given a privacy statement as part of the Peapod information handout at the registration desk, and the option of opting out of the use of the Peapod.
* Devices be identified by MAC address only, and no mapping of MAC address to attendee name will be performed.
