What it does

Device Connectivity

Device Connectivity SDK

  1. Facilitates connectivity with Bluetooth Smart (also known as Bluetooth Low Energy or BLE) devices.
  2. Retrieves the raw data of the devices’ sensors.

Ready-made connectors to the following devices:

  1. Texas Instruments SensorTag
  2. Microsoft Band
  3. Gemsense
  4. iOS (get data from the sensors of the phone)
  5. Future: Apple Watch

Note: The SensorTag and iOS Connectors are build in the framework, the Microsoft and the Gemsense Connector are connectors that using third-party SDK's.

Extensibility

  1. Utilize the SDK to build a custom connector in order to connect with other BLE devices.
  2. A code sample is provided.

Data dictionary

  1. Allows standardized utilization of inconsistently formatted data coming from different sensors while minimizing the burden on the developer.

Data Interpretation

Interpretation SDK

  1. Facilitates the identification of real world phenomena from raw data.

Ready-made interpreters

  1. Fall Detection
  2. Excessive Temperature Detection

Extensibility

  1. Utilize the SDK to build a custom interpretation algorithm in order to identify different types of phenomena.
  2. A code sample is provided.

Gesture Recognition

  1. Use a cloud service to analyze a recorded flow of data and generate an algorithm for identifying when the recorded gesture takes place.
