Project Title: Building
a Wireless Location-Based
Application ] -
Schedule |
 Supervising faculty
member: Prof.
LEE, Dik-Lun |
| Project description
and objectives:
|
|
|
Develop
an application on a
GPS-equipped PDA to
track the locations
of the users. Location
data will be uploaded
to a central database
to support various location-based
applications such as
buddy finding and location-based
alerts. |
| Language of instruction: |
| |
English |
| Software tools
/ programming languages
involved: C
or Java |
|
Deliverables:
*
(see footnote) |
| Things students
will learn: |
| |
Gain
hands-on experience
with PDA, GPS and WLAN
devices by putting them
together to build an
application. Understand
the ideas and difficulties
of buidling location-based
applications at the
conceptual level. Gain
some programming experience
on PDAs and the server
side. The students will
also learn the existing
research prototypes
- the objectives and
research behind them
- developed within our
research group and potentially
integrate their applicaiton
into one of them. |
| Prerequisites: |
| |
Students
must have know programming,
preferably in C or Java. |
