After the last 2 quarters worth of development, we have completed the Android app! The design hasn’t changed much since the Week 7 updates, but we cleaned it up, added the proper attributions to the source code, and packaged it all up into our Github project.
You can find the final codebase (nicknamed phantomboreas) on Github.
The Android app is nearly done!
First, our app now authenticates with the server using a token system.
Moreover, we redesigned the app to follow Material Design standards. To that end, we added a tabbed display: one tab for the video stream / image upload functionality and another tab for a gallery. Moreover, the photo capture button’s design was made in line with the Material Design theme.
A gallery was added so parking officers can view their recent photo captures. Given the extremely high resolution images captured by the Phantom 3, we opted to use the Picasso library to load the images efficiently.
Here are screenshots of those tabs:
Lastly, we used Android Asset Studio (https://romannurik.github.io/AndroidAssetStudio/) to create app and web icons. Here is a preview:
