They not only show you how to use the sensor related APIs effectively, they also describe how to use supporting Android OS components to build complete systems. Along the way, they provide solutions to problems that commonly occur when using Android's sensors, with tested, real-world examples. Ultimately, this invaluable resource provides in-depth, runnable code examples that you can then adapt for your own applications.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eShows experienced Android developers how to exploit the rich set of Android smartphone sensors to build human-interactive Android apps\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eExplores Android locational and physical sensors (including temperature, pressure, light, acceleration, etc.), as well as cameras, microphones, and speech recognition\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eHelps programmers use the Android sensor APIs, use Android OS components to build complete systems, and solve common problems\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIncludes detailed, functional code that you can adapt and use for your own applications\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eShows you how to successfully implement real-world solutions using each class of sensors for determining location, interpreting physical sensors, handling images and audio, and recognizing and acting on speech\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eLearn how to write programs for this fascinating aspect of mobile app development with \u003ci\u003eProfessional Android Sensor Programming\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eINTRODUCTION xxvii\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePART I: LOCATION SERVICES\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCHAPTER 1: INTRODUCING THE ANDROID LOCATION SERVICE 3\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCHAPTER 2: DETERMINING A DEVICE'S CURRENT LOCATION 11\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCHAPTER 3: TRACKING DEVICE MOVEMENT 27\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCHAPTER 4: PROXIMITY ALERTS 45\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePART II: INFERRING INFORMATION FROM PHYSICAL SENSORS\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCHAPTER 5: OVERVIEW OF PHYSICAL SENSORS 65\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCHAPTER 6: ERRORS AND SENSOR SIGNAL PROCESSING 103\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCHAPTER 7: DETERMINING DEVICE ORIENTATION 121\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCHAPTER 8: DETECTING MOVEMENT 147\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCHAPTER 10: ANDROID OPEN ACCESSORY 189\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePART III: SENSING THE AUGMENTED, PATTERN-RICH EXTERNAL WORLD\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCHAPTER 11: NEAR FIELD COMMUNICATION (NFC) 219\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCHAPTER 12: USING THE CAMERA 255\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCHAPTER 13: IMAGE-PROCESSING TECHNIQUES 281\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCHAPTER 14: USING THE MICROPHONE 303\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePART IV: SPEAKING TO ANDROID\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCHAPTER 15: DESIGNING A SPEECH-ENABLED APP 333\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCHAPTER 16: USING SPEECH RECOGNITION AND TEXT-TO-SPEECH APIS 349\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCHAPTER 17: MATCHING WHAT WAS SAID 407\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCHAPTER 18: EXECUTING VOICE ACTIONS 441\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCHAPTER 19: IMPLEMENTING SPEECH ACTIVATION 471\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eINDEX 495\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Computer programming \/ software development [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Computer programming \/ software development\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Computer%20programming%20\/%20software%20development%20%5BUM%5D%22\"\u003eUM\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Wrox","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52507203731736,"sku":"9781118183489","price":28.46,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9781118183489.jpg?v=1786439339","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/professional-android-sensor-programming-paperback-softback-9781118183489","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
