Sensors are ubiquitous in our daily life, from smartphones, wearable devices, internet of things, micro-satellites to self-driving cars in the future. We propose a new concept named Senseable Economics, which is about sensing the real-time dynamics of economic system by analyzing massive sensor data. In this talk, we will show how we use this concept to demystify China’s economy, gauge the impact of Covid and tackle climate change.
