  • Pebble Smartwatch
    Pebble (watch) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Pebble Smartwatch, often known now as the Pebble Classic, is an American smartwatch developed by Pebble Pebble Smartwatch Technology Corporation,[17] and is the first generation of the Pebble watch lineup. The smartwatch was pledged from a Kickstarter campaign, proving massively successful, collecting around $10 million for development of the smartwatch. Pebble connects to both Android and iOS phones, so they can display notifications from the phone, control music, view calendar events, and create reminders.[18][19] An online app store makes the Pebble compatible with apps tailored for them from many third party sellers, for many purposes especially sports. The Pebble is distinct from competing watches like the Apple Watch due to its fully functional, always-on e-paper displays that allow them to have full waterproofing and having a 7- to 10-day battery life, depending on the version.[20] E-paper inhibits the displaying of pictures, but it gives Pebble's watches better battery life and lower cost than competing Android Wear smartwatches and the Apple Watch.[21] The Pebble Classic features a monochrome, battery-efficient liquid-crystal display, a programmable CPU, memory, storage, Bluetooth connectivity, a vibrating motor, a magnetometer, an ambient light sensor and accelerometer; with the hardware Also known as Pebble extending its use into many roles including interacting with smartphone notifications, activity tracking, gaming, map display, controlling music and connected devices, setting timers, alarms, and reminders, viewing calendar events, and run and golf Developer Pebble Technology, Corp., Pebble Devices, tracking.[9][22] Corp in California.[1] When connected to an Android or iOS smartphone via Bluetooth, it will vibrate and display text messages, emails, incoming Manufacturer Foxlink Group in calls, and notifications from social media accounts when they are received on the paired device.

  • Test Platform Prioritization for Smartwatch Game Development
    Iiro Rassi Test Platform Prioritization for Smartwatch Game Development: Case Everywear Games Helsinki Metropolia University of Applied Sciences Master’s Degree Information Technology Master’s Thesis 11 May 2016 Abstract Author(s) Iiro Rassi Title Test Platform Prioritization for Smartwatch Game Development: Case Everywear Games Number of Pages 45 pages + 1 appendix Date 11 May 2016 Degree Master of Engineering Degree Programme Information Technology Instructor(s) Mika Tammenkoski, Chief Technology Officer Teemu Saukonoja, M.Sc. Testing in game development does not follow the same priorities and processes as in common software development. Game testing places a larger emphasis on usability aspects such as the fun-factor of the gameplay. Due to the different quality criteria, the approach to test planning is different as well. This thesis explores the possibility of prioritizing the testing platform based on the testing task at hand in order to improve the efficiency and reduce the resource costs of the test execution. Testing platforms in this context refer mainly to the simulator provided by the application development software and a real device. The client of the thesis, Everywear Games, develops games for the Apple Watch smartwatch. As a growing company they were interested in building up their processes in the most efficient way. The primary goal of the thesis was to formulate a set of principles for conducting test platform prioritization in a smartwatch game development project. This goal was fulfilled by the contents of the thesis. There were many discrepancies found between the operation of the simulator and the device, which were categorized as performance, physical and functional differences.

  • Smartphones and Apple Watches
    Sept 2014 Vol. XXV, No 8 printoutKeystone MacCentral Macintosh Users Group ❖ http://www.keystonemac.com Smartphones and Apple Watches At the next Keystone MacCentral meeting, (if the technology gods permit) we will watch and discuss parts of the Apple presentation that took place on 9/9/2014 at the Flint Center in Cupertino, California. Apple had plenty to talk about as it revealed two new iPhones and its much anticipated smart watch that we now know is called the “Apple Watch” (and not the “iWatch” as most of the world was guessing). As expected, Apple updated its smartphone line with two new models, the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus. Both have bigger screens than the last-generation, along with improved cameras and NFC chips that’ll enable you to use your phone to pay for things at retail counters. The new phones will ship on September 19th. Meanwhile, the new version of the company’s mobile operating system, iOS 8, will be available on September 17th, the day after our meeting. The most impressive news at the event was the introduction of the Apple Watch, a wrist-worn accessory for the iPhone that can (it seems) do almost anything: it’s a fitness monitor, a communication device and front-end for numerous iOS apps. And get this… it tells time too!! It starts out with a price tag of $349 and will be available in early 2015. We won’t have time to watch the entire event, but will hit the highlights, including the announcement that a new U2 album entitled “Songs of Innocence” is available for FREE to everyone with an iTunes account (that’s more than half a billion iTunes customers in 119 countries around the world).
