Project Summary
Droids On Roids developed the Android app for synapseWear, a wearable environmental sensor, referencing the existing iOS version and adding Bluetooth Low Energy capability to communicate with the device.

- Need for BLE communication between the app and the wearable sensor
- Requirement to display and enable download of environmental data on Android devices
Project Deliverables
