Hi Friends
Address of my Embedded System blog in blogspot is changed to androidinhome.blogspot.com
Now I am trying to port Android to my ARM based Home automation platform.
Serial port (com) communication ,General purpose port access etc. is the complicated issues.
Android having good graphics ,sound ,database ,internet ,bluetooth , WiFi , USB, Camera support, GSM/GPRS, 3G, GPS for location etc. so the automation system will get all this additional features without any extra software development. We can access all the features by writing applications in Android SDK.
Porting of the android in to new hardware platform is not so easy , so in the first step I planed to use standard android device for front-end application and another embedded device for actual controlling system.
The automation process ( monitoring the sensors , Controlling the devices ) can be done through another processor with traditional embedded program (without operating system). Android system can be used as front end (attractive User Interface) system to achieve communication features and other processing capabilities. The main thing is to make communication between both part of the system (Android based device and micro-controller based automation unit.
