Open Screen Fund: i2tecnologia’s “ECG Mobicare” selected

2009-07-09T17:48:50+03:00

I’m proud to announce that i2tecnologia’s “ECG Mobicare” application received funding through Nokia.

Our ECG application will collect and report hearth data from a pacemaker to a patient’s mobile. We are going to develop this solution in partnership with the professor Marco Aurelio Benedetti Rodrigues, Phd, and Qualihouse. Our goal is to identify cardiac arrhythmias through Nokia Devices!

FN Tech Days 2008: Code Camp Competition winner uses Flyer Framework

2008-06-23T18:11:40+03:00

~~Arkanoid~~ Flashbricks from Luis Valente and Jackson Feijó Filho of Rio de Janeiro and Manaus, Brazil. The Nokia Champions created a Arkanoid based game controlled by using "accelerometer". In only three hours Valente and Feijó were able to work on all game logic and connect Python and Flash Lite by using Flyer Framework!

They won a Nokia N95 8 GB! The source code will be published very soon! I and Luciano were there helping with the contest organization =D

Connecting Flash Lite and Java ME

2008-05-25T15:52:22+03:00

Hi readers,

I've just released Jarpa source code. You can always use the SVN repository to download the latest code.

Update: You can also take a look at the Wiki Article.

Creating scalable QRCodes (swf) with PyS60

2008-05-25T02:36:34+03:00

I'm releasing a short code snippet to create scalable two-dimensional bar code (swf) with Python for S60.

Unfortunately the generated SWF doesn't work on the native Flash player. I'm already trying to fix this strange behaviour but if you get it running please let me know. You can use the Barcode application on the N95 to decode the following picture.

Flash Lite chats with Java ME

2008-05-15T13:58:19+03:00

I'm proud to share a short application snippet of the next Jarpa Framework. Jarpa Framework wants to provide developers with the combined power of Adobe's Flash Lite and Java's programming capabilities.

Jarpa is opening the doors to extend Flash Lite capabilities with the widespread acceptance of Java ME. No Symbian nor Java ME knowledge is required to start. We've been using the same process to develop the lbs feature (store locator) on Anina Dress Up game.

Note that the application is a short preview (beta) and was only tested on N95 and also requires a memory card to copy the resources (swf) to open the application. As soon as possible I'm going to reveal the sources at Google code. Please, let me know your thoughts and if you are looking to a specific feature to be included.

Nokia Energy Profiler: Measure your application’s energy usage in real time

2008-05-06T20:27:49+03:00

Nokia Energy Profiler is a stand-alone test and measurement application for S60 3rd Edition, Feature Pack 1 devices (and onwards). The application allows developers to test and monitor their application’s energy usage in real time in the target device.

The application is available as a SIS package for S60 3rd Edition devices, but measurement works only in S60 3rd Edition, Feature Pack 1 (or newer). Older devices can still view files.

Nokia Energy Profiler 1.1 has the following views:

Processor
RAM Memory
Network
Signal Levels
Energy
Voltage

Short time ago I measured RAM usage... How many of you have already measured any of these profiles?

Developing Flash Lite applications with dynamic layouts

2008-05-06T14:05:46+03:00

Hi readers,

I've just found an interesting article at Adobe devnet: Developing Flash Lite applications with dynamic layouts. It's written by David Brown Lead Developer of Emerging Technology at Agencynet.

"In this tutorial I describe the process I used to develop the dynamic layout of the Bacardi® Mobile Cocktail application. I'll cover how to react to environment changes, such as the current time of day, and how to implement automatic Stage size and orientation switching. Automatic adjustment is especially important for devices such as the Nokia N95, because it is capable of changing its resolution. For other devices, you will learn how to manually alter the orientation of your application to mimic that functionality. " - David Brown

It's a really great user experience made in Flash Lite. There's also a promotional video, check it out: Bacardi Mobile Demo.
