Summary: | A wireless device user controls participation in a study panel. The device contains a data collection agent installed by the user, the manufacturer, or a distributor. The user enlists in a study panel. The essential steps include: a user obtains a panel identification identity and provides it to a data collection agent; the data collection agent receives the panel identification identity and uses it to initiate the transfer of a data collection profile. Upon receiving the data collection profile, the data collection agent on the wireless device is configured to participate in a specific study. The agent is controlled by the profile to record metrics and user selections, transform the data into a package, and transmit the package to a destination package reception server determined in the profile. |
