Implementation Plan and Goals
Development process
For creating the application we are using the spiral model.
| Increment | Description | File |
|---|---|---|
| First | Creating the basic alarm application | first_iteration.zip |
| Second | Adding the microphone input feature | second_iteration.zip |
| Third | Reading the sound level | third_iteration.zip |
| Forth | Integrating the features to stop by sound | forth_iteration.zip |
| Fifth | Save settings to file | fifth_iteration.zip |
| Sixth | Testing the application and repairing bugs | sixth_iteration.zip |
| Seventh | Stop by Shake functionality | seventh_iteration.zip |
| Eighth | Stop by Flip functionality | eighth_iteration.zip |
| Ninth | Beta version | ninth_iteration.zip |
| Tenth | Beta 2, if no alarm sound found, a browser appears | tenth_iteration.zip |
| Eleventh | Beta 3, bug fixed | eleventh_iteration.zip |
At the end we should have:
Voice Controlled Alarm should have
- Time reading

How to run software
You need to open the project file in the Qt Creator.
in the simulation folder you need a folder with sounds and the name of the sounds should be warning.wav and ringin.wav.
When installing on phone, you need to select a *.wav file from the browse if it doesn't find the sound automaticaly.
Note: you can copy the wav files from the package. They are located on the sounds folder from any of the root folders of the archive.
Note: If you do not have the *.wav file the application lets you choose a file, but this will appear only if the configuration is wrong. You need to select *.wav files for the sound to work.
Note: if you just want to install on a Symbian phone, you can just install it using ovi and uploading the sys file from the project folder. (tested on N8)
