Dowse Awareness and insight into connected devices in your home: With the growing connectivity of devices in the Internet of Things devices are exchanging more and more data among themselves. It is very difficult to have an overview of these communications. This project wants to create awareness on the privacy, security and sharing challenges of connected devices and ‘smart’ homes. Dowse is an open source project to give citizens insight in the behaviour of their environment through the Dowse ‘router’. Dyne.org
