Supporto

Learn to build human-interactive Android apps, starting with
device sensors
This book shows Android developers how to exploit the rich set
of device sensors–locational, physical (temperature,
pressure, light, acceleration, etc.), cameras, microphones, and
speech recognition–in order to build fully human-interactive
Android applications. Whether providing hands-free directions or
checking your blood pressure, Professional Android Sensor
Programming shows how to turn possibility into reality.
The authors provide techniques that bridge the gap between
accessing sensors and putting them to meaningful use in real-world
situations. They not only show you how to use the sensor related
APIs effectively, they also describe how to use supporting Android
OS components to build complete systems. Along the way, they
provide solutions to problems that commonly occur when using
Android’s sensors, with tested, real-world examples. Ultimately,
this invaluable resource provides in-depth, runnable code examples
that you can then adapt for your own applications.
* Shows experienced Android developers how to exploit the rich
set of Android smartphone sensors to build human-interactive
Android apps
* Explores Android locational and physical sensors (including
temperature, pressure, light, acceleration, etc.), as well as
cameras, microphones, and speech recognition
* Helps programmers use the Android sensor APIs, use Android OS
components to build complete systems, and solve common
problems
* Includes detailed, functional code that you can adapt and use
for your own applications
* Shows you how to successfully implement real-world solutions
using each class of sensors for determining location, interpreting
physical sensors, handling images and audio, and recognizing and
acting on speech
Learn how to write programs for this fascinating aspect of
mobile app development with Professional Android Sensor
Programming.
