====== Smart Objects and Services ======

====== Project Presentation ======

== Name : == 
UbiMug

== Group Composition : == 
Karim Hamrouni, Aymen Ben Alaya, Ramla Bachrouch


==== Scenario :====

UbiMug is intended for use by everyone who loves coffe and cares about his health. This little gadget will of course, let you enjoy your prefered beaverage, but it will also helps it's users monitor their stress their sleep cycles among many other possibilities.

Let's take the example of workers at offices: the end-user can measure it's consumption of coffee, sugar and the amount of breaks he took in a journey. By collecting informations like the current temperature of the beaverage inside the UbiMug, data concerning the positionning of the mug, acceleration data, sugar concentration and times of consumption, it will be able to provide accurate data in order to be used in many cases: doctors, therapists, psychologists, project managers or the "drinker" itself.
Temperature is gatherd by a precision temperature sensor in the base of the liquid container, which will provide accurate sensing of the temperature.

An accelerometer will sense the orientation of the mug; in other words, how it's used and how much coffee remains in the container.

Another voltage sensor will provide measurement about liquid conductivity: we can detect sugar concentration, presence of liquid, salt concentration and many other liquid-conductivity-related properties.

==== Specifications and interface of the service on the object  ====
During the prototyping of our object, we focused on the ability of our object to provide the data through different, well known, standards such as CSV files and UPnP.
With those two communication paths, many ways of high added value services could be added. As an example, we choose to delpoy some of them:
  * All data is collected in CSV data tables, those data tables are widely known and could be used in programs such as MS-Excel for easy charting, MatLab & Simulink for visualizing time-differed usage of the mug. They also can be imported into databases or used along with other CSV files or data in the Google Fusion Tables plateform. Analists can get correlations in using our CSV files in utilities such as 'R', and with a sufficent number of UbiMugs deployed in the world, beautifully informative data vizualisations, like the ones generated by Gapminder (Hans Roseling), are withing reach.
<code>
CSV files are stored into the device, and the embedded webserver can deliver thoses files to any device via simple webqueries (dnsnameofdevice.local/dd-MM-YYYY.csv)
</code>

  * UPnP status variables are sent on the lan of the connected object, this is useful for communicating values to other devices on the same network.
As an example, a UPnP enabled coffe machine could know if you are running out of coffe and prepare some for you.

  * We also imagined a "hacked way" to use UPnP data: let's take teachers as users: many times a day, they are doing presentations in classes and have to deal with a remote controller or their keyboard to jump from one slide to another. The UbiMug, with it's motion detection ability, can become a controller interface for the computer: turn it to the right to jump to the next diapositve, and vice versa...
Cases like brutal mouvements can of course engender coffe to leak from the UbiMug ; here too, a TTS (TextToSpeech) service reminds you whenever your mug is unstable by sound notifications from your personal computer.

    * Put beans into the Beans Folder (dll only)
    * Put WCC container into the phidget
    * Add autostart script to /etc/rc.local (mono /root/wcomp/SharpWCompContainer/Container.exe -r /root/wcomp/Beans/ -l /root/wcomp/SharpWCompContainer/UbiMugSBC.wcc -n UbiMugUPnP), if problems were encountred, wrap into a sed command line (check: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sed)

   * Put Beans (DLL), into beans folder of SharpDevelop
   * Open SharpDevelop and create a new C# container
   * Import and Replace WCC from Wcomp menu

   * Back to SharpDevelop, Bind UPnP Device
   * Back to UPnP Wizard, connect container
   * Back to SharpDevelop, connect recently added devices to th Simulate-Key Bean
==== Results of the relations with Reims (being factual without personal opinion) ====
Working with CAO-Designers from Reins was an effective relation, resulting in a nearly commercial product.
We learned how to deal with prototyping issues, such as cost, feasibility and size.
They also learned how adapt their methodology and artistic added value for constraint-specific applications, such as embedding wires, waterproofing, temperature and environment constraints etc...

It's not an easy task to communicate around a project with virtual tooling, such as VoIP systems, emails, boards, 3D sketches... but it have to be done this way in order to reduce costs.

The end result of our UbiMug is very convincing and the implementation of the hardware went most of the time like a charm (not to consider small holes in the device for wiring).
==== Prospects : ====
== Possible extensions of the object ==
  * Blutooth support for Smartphone synchronization 
  * GPS enabled for outdoor tracking (10m)
  * RFID for better indoor tracking (10cm, floor, room etc...)
  * Moisture & other variables (such as caffeine, milk) detection 
  * LEDs for showing the state of the mug
  * Ambient sound detection
== Possible extension of the service on the Object ==
  * Use the object as a controller for other devices (remote controller for TV for example)
  * Use the object as a controller for the coffee machine ; disabling it if too much coffee is consumed in a certain period of time.
== Possible extension of the high added value Service ==
  * Google Calendar integration, for detecting work days and better stress detection.
  * Coupled with ambient sound sensor for better "stress zones" detection.
== Possible GUI for data visualization ==
Microsoft Excel
