Disadvantages For Organizations To Use Smart Dust


A possible disadvantage of the use of Smart Dust is the possible invasion of privacy. [1] The device can be used both inside and outside the building structure of the company. Both ways, people may feel insecure and uncomfortable with the idea of constantly being monitored. Knowing that there is sensors for night security cameras, temperature, or lighting dectection may make peopel feel like no matter what they are doing, they are constantly being followed. [2] Also, there is a technological disadvantage for Organizations. [3] The data collected collected may not exactly be real time since it is transmitted in short bursts after some time intervals. Therefore, for some critical real time data collection/processing it might not be as appropriate.
