- Control shower session characteristics through mobile app.
KEY FEATURES
- User profile management.
- Setting heating temperature.
APPROACH
The Embrox team had limited time for project realization. In order to reduce the development time, it was decided to use Flutter framework and develop the cross platform mobile app. To connect between the application and device BLE protocol was used to provide reduced power consumption and better battery life. To optimize network traffic usage, the app synchronizes with the cloud only in case of Wi-Fi connection and while determining periods of time. It was decided to add OTA DFU for updating the device at any time and protecting users from failures that might happen.
