An Android Geofencing App for Autonomous Remote Switch Control

Abstract—Geofence is a virtual fence defined by a preset physical radius around a target location. Geofencing App provides location-based services which define the actionable operations upon the crossing of a geofence. Geofencing requires continual location tracking, which can consume noticeable amount of battery power. Additionally, location updates need to be frequent and accurate or order so...

Genetics: Breeding and Genetics

In broilers, heat stress results in reduced feed intake, digestion inef­ ficiency, impaired metabolism, and death. Our objective was to initiate a study on the effects of heat stress by profiling the transcriptome of a metabolically active organ, the liver, from heat-stressed and non-heat­ stressed broilers. From 21 to 28 d of age, heat-stressed broilers were exposed to daily 7-h cycles of 35°C...

HifoCap: An Android App for Wearable Health Devices

Android is becoming a platform for mobile health-care devices and apps. However, there are many challenges in developing soft real-time, health-care apps for non-dedicated mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets. In this paper, we share our experiences in developing the HifoCap app, a mobile app for receiving electroencephalogram (EEG) wave samples from a wearable device, visualizing the...
