This paper presents a novel approach defined as laboratory on phone “Lab-on-Phone” which include the main features of “Human Centric Sensing”, “Participatory Sensing” and “Ubiquitous Computing” paradigms in a multiuser and multipurpose acquisition, processing, storage and analysis chain infrastructure. Lab-On-Phone includes a generic sensing module which shares data with a Smartphone via Near Field Communication (NFC). The sensor measurements are processed and displayed by an Android application running in the same Smartphone, a web server stores the measured information sent by multiple Smartphones, considering privacy and security. Lab-on-Phone also uses a set of web applications which allow accessing data from many different places and in any platform with Internet access.
