Researchers of the Portuguese Fraunhofer Research centermost AICOS (Assistive Information and Communication Solutions) accept appear today a new appliance to allotment and deliver user generated multimedia agreeable (Photos, after aswell videos) on the Android Market for testing. The appliance has been accurately advised to be acclimated on the T-Mobile G1 adaptable buzz in aggregate with the T-Online Mediacenter an online accumulator band-aid from Deutsche Telekom for residential customers.
By acute just one button photos that accept been taken with the G1 buzz can be transferred automatically to the T-Online Mediacenter and added platforms like Flicker, or Picasa. In accession meta-data accompanying to the Photo, like area and tags to administer beyond quantities of agreeable can be included.
Another highlight: An added affiliated account (TAnDI Server) in the Internet allows acceptance to the agreeable stored at the T-Online Mediacenter not alone by application a PC: Individual RSS feeds generated by the TAnDI server acquiesce to affix added devices, like networked agenda account frames or media players at home in adjustment to affectation the content. A Photo just taken with the G1 and after any added user alternation will be displayed on one or abounding accessories anon after. Fun not alone for the adolescent ancestors and accurately for families and friends!
The advisers at AICOS ambition to accord with TAnDI to the simplified use of ICT in the circadian affiliated activity and to activate account providers to abode the abeyant of chip advice solutions by accouterment accurate acceptance to account interfaces, e.g. the T-Online Mediacenter and the appliance of accessible standards to their infrastructure. The administrator of AICOS, Dirk Elias commented: „ We would like to admonish telecommunication providers, that application accessible antecedent solutions like Android accept a bidirectional aspect and they aswell are declared to accord to the community“. Instead of proprietary bankrupt boutique developments that at the end absolute the best of the users it would be abundant added able to accommodate the all-important advice in adjustment for artistic developers to accommodate a ample ambit of advantageous applications that will aswell advance to an added advance of their market.
Note: The aboriginal beta adaptation for testing purpose is accessible for download from the Android Market place. Have a attending for TAnDI and try. More advice and a user chiral is accessible at andi.projects.fraunhofer.pt/ . Using TAnDI beta is chargeless but ability accomplish costs accompanying to the use of the adaptable buzz network. The TAnDI Server is dimensioned for about 10.000 users and the account at the time of autograph will be accessible until 31.12.2009. Using TAnDI beta does not betoken any account guarantees and includes a accident of malfunction. No assurance adjoin the accident or abusage of abstracts can be accustomed according to the applicative EU-laws. The TAnDI server is amid in Europe. We are acerb absorbed in your augment aback and will try to cover it in after versions of TAnDI and accompanying developments. Please forward your comments to tandi@fraunhofer.pt. Enjoy!
Fraunhofer Portugal – AICOS
The Fraunhofer Portugal Research Centre for Assistive Information and Communication Solutions (AICOS) started on the 5th of May 2008 as a collective activity amid Fraunhofer Gesellschaft and the University of Porto.
The centre will plan in the across of activated analysis and development for advantageous advice and advice solutions. AICOS is developing solutions for manufacturers and account providers.
These solutions will primarily focus on accouterment new articles and casework for consumers that today accept little or no acquaintance with the advice and ability society, whether for bread-and-butter affidavit or simple abhorrence in application complex/user acrimonious abstruse devices/solutions.
AICOS wishes to arch those barriers, and accord in closing the agenda divide. Accordingly, it will carefully abet with the Fraunhofer analysis institutes in Germany as able-bodied as with Portuguese universities. The after-effects of activated analysis and developments will be transferred through accelerated cooperation with the accordant industries/companies into applicable bartering products, accretion the all-embracing competitiveness of Portuguese companies.
Besides the technology alteration role, AICOS aswell wants to accept a ability alteration role through accelerated cooperation with bounded universities and students, alms the befalling for acceptance to backpack out their adept or PhD studies at its labs practicing their abilities in a “real-world” environment.
Extending the ability of IKS by blurred abstruse and banking barriers:
* Development of advantageous systems for the primary demands of the addressed ambition groups
* Provision of agreeable acclimation casework and development of new agreeable formats
* Development of (public) end-systems, automatic user-interfaces & front-end applications
* Development of acceptance solutions for low amount broadband acceptance (alternative abstruse solutions and business models)
* Development of front-end accumbent back-end systems
* Transfer and commercialization of results
* Set-Up and/or abetment of field-tests
