
Sensor Programming
Android Platform Preferred
Applications on the following domains:
1) User Location Tracking
2) User’s Gesture & Status Monitoring
3) User’s Presence within Labs & Campus
Mobile Application Development
User Location Tracking
 Make use of the gyroscope, accelerometer, and magnetometer to do location
tracking. Basically a user will start at a check-in location, then based on his/her
walking steps, and directions, the system is able to track the user within the
premises.
 Make use of the WiFi Signals and locate a user with a mobile phone. The WiFi
routers being used is programmed to report the signal received from a user’s mobile
phone. By collecting these signals at the location server, we can construct algorithms
to estimate the user’s location.
User Status Monitoring
 Make use of the sensors from the mobile phone and be able to detect whether a user
is standing, walking, running, climbing stairs, walking down the stairs, sitting, lying
down, and fall. One can make use of the camera to measure the heart beat rate and
add more information to the user status.
User’s Presence within Labs and Campus
 Use WiFi routers to act as sensors to detect users’ presence within the Campus
(more likely in which room in the 8th or 9th floor of FSC). Write a mobile application
to display to see whether a place is crowd with people or classmates.
Mobile Application Development
Mobile Advertisement using Bluetooth 4.0 or Bluetooth LE (Lower Energy)
 Any interesting application that utilizes the Bluetooth technology for mobile
advertisement.
Mobile Game Development
 Any interesting game development on the mobile phone platform.
Extra Note
 Feel free to propose reasonable topics to me for your Final Year Projects.
 Project 1 through Project 3 can be easily extended into Group Project that needs
more than 1 person to develop.
Other Mobile App Development
