AWARE Framework Android Client

Release

AWARE is an Android framework dedicated to instrument, infer, log and share mobile context information, for application developers, researchers and smartphone users. AWARE captures hardware-, software-, and human-based data. It encapsulates analysis, machine learning and simplifies conducting user studies in naturalistic and laboratory settings.

User Studies

The platform is scalable with plugins and can be integrated with other platforms using JSON, MQTT or MySQL.

Arquitecture

Getting started

1 - Contributing to AWARE, building from source

You can get the source code of all the components that make the AWARE client from GitHub.

$ git clone --recursive https://github.com/denzilferreira/aware-client.git
$ cd aware-client
$ git submodule foreach --recursive git checkout master

You can now import this project to Android Studio and hack away :)

2 - Using AWARE as a library in your own app

Add to the build.gradle inside your module to include AWARE's libraries

repositories {
    maven { url "https://jitpack.io" }
}

dependencies {
    api "com.github.denzilferreira:aware-client:master-SNAPSHOT"
}

You can now refer to AWARE's functions inside your app. For example, if you want to use the accelerometer sensor:

    Aware.startAWARE(applicationContext) //initialise core AWARE service

    Aware.setSetting(applicationContext, Aware_Preferences.FREQUENCY_ACCELEROMETER, 200000) //20Hz
    Aware.setSetting(applicationContext, Aware_Preferences.THRESHOLD_ACCELEROMETER, 0.02f) // [x,y,z] > 0.02 to log
    
    Aware.startAccelerometer(this)
    
    Accelerometer.setSensorObserver {
        val x = it.getAsDouble(Accelerometer_Provider.Accelerometer_Data.VALUES_0)
        val y = it.getAsDouble(Accelerometer_Provider.Accelerometer_Data.VALUES_1)
        val z = it.getAsDouble(Accelerometer_Provider.Accelerometer_Data.VALUES_2)
        
        println("x = $x y = $y, z = $z")
    }

Special sensors: Applications, Touch, Notifications, Keyboard, Crash logs

If you plan to leverage the Applications, Touch, Notifications, Keyboard or Crash sensors, you will need to obtain access to the Accessibility Services on Android OS. Create a file called "bools.xml" inside /res/values/ inside your app: bools.xml
