Although sensing technology has advanced in recent years, little attention has been paid to understanding the relationship between the benefits and exposure of personal information using sensors. This lack of understanding is a major factor hindering introducing sensing systems in daily life. To deal with ELSI related to sensing technology, this study proposes a Willingness to Expose (WTE) method to clarify the relationship between the amount of information exposure and the benefits of sensing services. The authors conducted a questionnaire survey for 500 people using the proposed WTE. The results of the WTE survey show that the more attractive the service is, the higher the WTE is (p<0.0001). The survey also shows that the WTEs significantly differ depending on where the sensing systems are installed (p<0.0001).
