Children Control Solution
CHALLENGES
- To write an interactive game.
- To limit calls to a certain list of allowed contacts.
- To develop the pairing protocol with the parent's application.
KEY FEATURES
- The parents can see the child's geolocation.
- The opportunity of sharing the access control is provided.
- Messenger.
- The possibility of adding friends that have the same watches, creating chats, sharing information and calling is provided.
- Setting the School Mode that disables incoming calls.
- The parents can view activities without the access to private messages.
- Games and interactivity.
- The connection with other devices, such as radio-controlled cars and robots is ensured.
APPROACH
- Custom BLE protocol has been developed for the pairing process and first initialization of the device. In this way, all necessary information comes to the watch from the parent's application (time, user’s data, data for initialization in the system) after appropriate settings.
- The task from the client has been to develop the game, during which the watch would find friends nearby. After the agreement of two friends, the playback of the song should start simultaneously in order to create the duet. Due to some peculiarities of working with Bluetooth, the team tested various options of solving the problem and, eventually, applied the one that minimizes the sound delay.
RESULTS
The Embrox team has succeeded in creating the device, with the help of which parents are able to see kids’ geolocation and constantly keep in touch with them. We have also paid great attention to the convenience of functionality and tested it on children of different age groups.
