Description: Nominated as OAPS (Outstanding Academic Papers by Students) paper by Department in 2008-09.
Abstract: The project primary objective is to develop a system on tracking the real time position of the outdoor mobility nodes. By using the GPS and mobile data network, all the node locations could be tracked and managed in the backend server. The nature of the project is about developing a low cost automatic real time location tracking and management system to assist people to track the location of outdoor sport participants, dementia patients, pets and peoples’ outdoor wealth, such as cars and construction machines. And also, it provides an abnormal alert on outdoor sports participants. Through this project, various wireless technologies like GPS and cellar phone network are explored. The development of JAVA Internet client server applications on mobile phone and personal computer is analyzed. The project consists of two fields. The first one is the backend server on personal computer. It bases on Java Standard Edition and responses the clients’ position data from internet. The other one is the mobile phone of the client. It bases on Java Micro Edition and decodes / displays the GPS incoming data in order to provide internet connection to the backed server.
