Project Name: ”Sketch Yourself” an application for Android device users. The main aim of the application is to generate a pencil based sketch out of the image supplied as input.

Project Description:

• “Sketch yourself” – an application specially designed for ‘Art-lovers’, now can have a quick pencil-sketch of their own in minutes, and others they are willing to make of.

• The application is expected to be an easy-to-use Sketch-drawing tool which uses an image as input and fetches different types of Pencil-Sketches as output. Hence providing users with choices for selection.

• Includes an Image-gallery, which supports Image Selection from wide range of Images available on memory.

• Finally, helps in saving the new sketched Image to the memory, assigning a user-defined name.

Scope of the Project:

• Users of the Application are able to get different types of pencil sketches on their finger-tip. No need of sitting for hours in the Artist-queue to get you sketched.

• Makes use of some Image-processing Algorithms for building a sketch. Hence an exposure to learn something new.

Talking about the technology:

o   Android being the latest Operating System for cellular phones now-a-days, there arises a need to develop an application for Android users. Hence, making user more comfortable.

o   One of the best advantage in using Android, is that it is Open source, providing the same API’s for both native and third-party users. And the next best advantage is that Android is not a proprietary version and hence attracts large volume of Developers.

Planning:

Project-definition:

“Sketch Yourself” aims to be an application for android device users, which generates a beautiful pencil-sketch out of any image inputted to the application. The main feature of the application is to generate a pencil-based sketch created by artists.

The features of the system include: 

• Providing the user with Image-gallery interface to choose image.
• Generating Sketch out of user’s selected image.
• Finally, saving it on the phone.

Technically speaking, the project aims at creating the sketch with the help of certain Image processing algorithms like Gray-scale, Invert, Blur, etc.

Let’s have an exact look at what the system should do:

Preliminary Investigation 

Preliminary investigation talks about the first look on what the system aims to do. The main task of the system is to produce pencil-sketch. Now, the question is how to achieve it?

Having surfed the Internet and referred different books on Image processing, got an initial idea of what should ideally be done. One of the Algorithms for generating pencil-sketch out of an image is discussed below.

Let’s have a look at the pseudo-code along with an example:

Brief on Project Development Methodology:

In this application to be developed, I would prefer to use a combination of “Application Proto-typing Methodology” and “Object-orineted Methodology”, as we need to successively develop and test algorithm, its exactness and its quality and choose the preferred one and make changes as required.

Application Proto-type Methodology:

• The term ‘Proto-type’ refers to the working model of an information system application.

• A proto-type may be a diagram, a business process or even a system placed into production.

• Steps involved in Proto-typing method:
  • Identify Proto-type
  • Agree to plan
  • Create Proto-type
  • Review Proto-type

• Proto-type is a live, working application.

• Proto-types evolve through an iterative process.

• Proto-type helps in clarifying user requirements and also to verify feasibility of the application.

Requirement Specification:

• ‘Sketch Yourself’ will be designed to work with the android based mobile phones. 

• The application will have Straightforward and user-friendly interface.

• It will allow viewing images both from the phone as well as the memory-card.

• Any image selected by the user is processed to get a beautiful sketch of pencil. One such example is shown below:

• Allows the user to choose from different variations of sketches processed by the application.

• The one chosen by the user can be saved back on memory as a new Image.

• The output file will be saved with the new name given by the user. 

System Design

Architectural

• Activity Diagram

The above activity diagram depicts the overall activities of the system i.e, it includes step-by-step procedure.

• Use-cases

Use-cases are interactive diagrams which reflect the communication of user with the system. Major use-cases of the system are as follows:

Select Image-file Use-case

          This use-case allows the user to choose a specific Image-file for input to the application. Here, a validation should be performed for supporting only specific image-formats as inputs.

Produce Sketch Use-case

          This use-case allows the user to produce sketch using some image-processing algorithms on image. It also includes resizing the image, converting into Bitmaps, etc.

Save the Sketch Use-case

          Finaly, when the sketch is available to the user. He needs to provide the file-name for the output image file and save it to desired location on the memory card. 

Validate an Image File Use-case

This use-case enables the system to check whether the selected file is an image or not. It also confirms whether the file is in specific image format supported by the application.

Views the Image File Use-case

After the user selects a particular image-file and the the file is also validated, this use-case enables to view the image to the user.

Re-size Image Use-case

This use-case enbles the application to resize the image, if it exceeds specific limits, inorder to ease the faster execution of the algorithm used.

Sharpen Image Use-case

This use-case allows the user to sharpen the image, if the user requires.

Convert to Bitmap Use-case

This use-case enables the application to convert the Image inputted to Bitmap format, so that we can process the algorithm which uses Bitmap format.

Process the Algorithm Use-case

This use-case allows the most important part of the application i.e. to apply algorithm on the Bitmap image and produce the sketch. 

Provide desired file-name Use-case

The above use-case enables the user to enter the file-name he wishes to provide for the output file.

Choose Location Use-case

This use-case enables the user to show the location where the sketch-image file should be stored.

User-Manual

“Sketch yourself” is an android application which is helpful to people who are art-lovers and wish to design their own pencil-sketch from the image in minutes. We may explain the procedure in detail as below. 

First Step

This document explains you(users) with how the software works. Let us say you have your android device. You need to open the application by selecting it from the menu as I have pointed out.

Here, the user needs to open the application by clicking on the application icon from the menu-window.

Second Step

As we click on the application icon in the previous step, next we get the home-page of the application. Home-page is designed in such a way that it shows what we would receive as output from the input given. A very self-explanatory image shown.

Here, At the home-page of the application, the user needs to press the “Open File” button, as I have pointed.

Third Step:

As we click the open file button i.e , the control of the application is transferred to the Gallery application where user needs to select an image and click on it to select. By click we mean – finger touch.

Here, scrolling is facilitated. So the user can scroll for more images down in the gallery.

Fourth Step

As the user selects a particular image, the above screen appears so as to show the user, the image he has selected. Here, the user needs to press any of the two buttons available.

The first button “Pencil Sketch” is to create a pencil based sketch while the other button “Black & White Sketch” is to create a black-white sketch of the given inputted image.

Fifth Step

On selecting the first button “Pencil-sketch”, we get this output. Here, we need to provide the name of the sketch inorder to save the file to the device and press the save button. Final step is user can exit the application by pressing the “Exit App..” button.

Allows the user to save the sketch..

Allows the user to exit the application.,

Fifth Step-b

Here, when the user selects the second option of “Black and White Sketch” , he gets the above image as output. Hence, he can save the file to the device.

Allows the user to exit the application.,

Allows the user to save the sketch..

Future Enhancements:

The project produces two different types of sketches a user can have for his image.

Next, we can have a camera running directly from the application itself to facilitate user have a sketch of the instant image clicked.

Another future enhancement I would like to see in my project is to share the image to social-networking sites like facebook, twitter, etc.

Security for Lost or Misplaced device – iLocate

In this fast moving world, people are always in rush. People usually carry few necessities with them, and we cannot separate mobile phones from these. For one or another reason, it sometime happens that people misplace or lose the thing, and one cannot easily afford losing the thing like mobile. People always want the mobile to be with them.

Purpose behind developing the iLocate is to provide its user to track their lost or misplaced mobile.

Misplaced mobile

A simple text message from a friend’s mobile will make users mobile to ring (even if it is on Silent mode) if phone is misplaced within reachable range.

Lost mobile

Sometimes user loses his mobile and he/she may not able to locate it through making it ‘ringing’ because mobile may not be within a reachable range. At those times application can serve the user by following ways:

A simple text message from friend’s mobile will help user to receive his phone’s GPS location information on friend’s mobile as a URL. By clicking or opening this link user will be able to see the current location of his/her mobile on Google Map.

If SIM change takes place on user’s mobile, iLocate will notify about this SIM change activity by sending text messages to friend’s mobile numbers.

Following are terms used throughout this documentation:

Pass code

Pass code is a keyword that user of application sets when he uses the application for the first time. This code is then used by user for subsequent login to the application. User can’t access application without having pass code. User may change pass code any time.

Whitelist

White list is a list of mobile numbers of user’s friends. User may add to, remove from or change numbers defined in this list. Once user adds a number to this list, this number is recognized as a Trusted Number by iLocate, and user of this number is a Trusted User. This means that only a trusted user can send codewords from his/her trusted mobile so that application can prevent unwanted users from misusing the features of application.

Friends

A friend is a trusted user whose number exists as an entry in white list. Friend and trusted user are names that may be used interchangeably.

Codewords

A codeword is a keyword that user has defined for taking a desired action when his/her mobile receives that codeword to his/her mobile, from a trusted number. iLocate has currently two kind of codewords.

1. GPS Codeword: A GPS codeword is a keyword that user has defined within iLocate. When a trusted user sends this codewords from his/her trusted mobile to user’s number as a text message, application recognizes it and generates a link that can help user to view his/her location on Google Map. This link is sent back to trusted user’s mobile so that he/she can locate user’s mobile on Map.

2. Ringer Codeword: A Ringer codeword is another keyword that user has defined within application. When user’s loses his/her mobile within a reachable range but due to the current profile on the mobile he/she may not be able to locate mobile, at these times a friend may help user by sending a simple text messages (we call it Ringer codeword) that will make user’s mobile ringing.

These codewords are configurable by user of application once he/she is logged in.

SIM change notification receiver

SIM change notification receiver is another list of mobile numbers of user’s friends. User may add to, remove from and change numbers defined in this list. Once user adds a number to this list, application notifies on these numbers by sending text messages when SIM change takes place on user’s mobile. Numbers in this list are also termed as Trusted Numbers.

Implementation:

1. Setting application pass-code at first use
2. Asking pass-code to enter System
3. Application prompts when user selects small pass-code
4. Application’s main user interface
5. Codeword setups- to set/modify codewords
6. Whitelist- list of trusted user numbers
7. SIM change setup- to add/update SIM change notification receiver
8. Prompts when user leaves pass-code setup activity
9. Error message on setting invalid pass-code
10. Prompts when any updates are made
11. Alerts when user leaves any activity without saving details
12. Received message on friend’s mobile when he sends codeword to get for user’s location information
13. User’s location is shown on the map when friend clicks on the link sent as a message through iLocate
14. Defined friends receives notification as a text message when user’s mobile’s SIM is changed

User Manual

Introduction

This application will help an Android user to track the lost or misplaced mobile. If user misplaces a mobile which is currently in silent/vibrate mode, he may change the phone mode to ‘ringing’ by using another mobile with facility of sending text message. Also if user loses mobile he may find current GPS location of his mobile through another mobile. It notifies mobile user on SIM change via text message on another predefined mobile. This application also restricts unauthenticated change in App-Settings by using password protection.

Users of this guide

This User manual is intended to be used by user’s of iLocate application on the android mobile having Android platform version 2.2 or later. It provides a complete set of instructions for an iLocate user to demonstrate each individual feature of iLocate user.

Functional Description

iLocate comes with the set of features to locate your lost or misplaced android mobile. User may find his mobile by turning off the silent mode by sending simple code as a text message to make his mobile ring.

User may also locate his device on map by requesting the mobile’s current location through sending a simple preconfigured code as text message from another trusted device to user’s mobile. In response user will get a link as a text message on a trusted device which will show user’s mobile’s current location on map.

User can choose specific numbers to receive the command from by maintaining a list called – ‘Whitelist’.

User will receive notifications on preconfigured trusted mobile numbers; about any SIM change activity on user’s mobile by configuring the SIM change setup.

Instruction Sections

Getting stated

(User may get the application by visiting <x.com>/iLocate). Installation may take time depending on your device and data connection. Once you are done with installation you are ready to GO.

First use

After installation you can run the application by going in to main menu and launch the application by clicking iLocate icon as shown in Figure 1.1. Application will prompt the password (Figure 1.2) to be used for login. This is asked only once when you first time or when password is not set.

After setting the password you will be redirected to pass through activity (Figure 1.3). Enter the password you set here and click Ok. On correct password entry you will get the main interface of iLocate (Figure 1.4).

Defining Whitelist

White list is a list of numbers which are allowed to send the codewords on user’s mobile. We will refer them as Trusted Users or Whitelist.

To define or update Whitelist, Go to Whitelist from main menu (Figure 2.1). You may add up to 5 contacts. Click on Update after you are done.

Now iLocate will recognize these numbers as trusted ones and will allow to command user’s device.

Configuring the commands

Go to Codeword setup from main menu.

Define Ringer codeword and GPS codeword.

Ringer codeword will cause user’s device to switch to General profile and make it Ring for some time, upon receiving Ringer codeword.

GPS codeword will cause user’s mobile to generate a link defining its current location and cause it send it to the trusted user’s mobile as a text message.

SIM change setup

This feature allows you to define mobile numbers which will receive notification if SIM change takes place on iLocate user’s mobile.

To define or modify your SIM change notification receiver’s mobile number, go to SIM change setup (figure 2.3) from main menu. You are allowed to enter up to 2 mobile numbers.

iLocate will notify these defined notification receiver about any SIM change on user’s mobile via a Text message.

Changing application pass code

Once you are logged in, you can change your password. To change password, go to Application settings from main menu, simply replace password with new one. You must select password that is at least 4 characters long.

Future Enhancement:

We have included very basic features that required for application to work. Some advancement in futures may possible for better features and better user experience.

Dynamic entries for contacts & fetching contacts from mobile instead of manual typing:

This version of iLocate has fixed number of allowable contact numbers for White list and SIM change list. Advance controls may be used to add or remove text fields as per user’s need. Also application may allow user to fetch contact from People list itself and selecting accordingly.

Connecting using internet

Application may be extended to make a use of internet to allow the device to be located through another device by trusted users (already registered with application) and to track movements of user’s device.

 Project Title : City Bus Management

Abstract:

• This is an android application used to find out the bus number from one place to another place.
• User need to give the details of source and destination.
• Accordingly it will display the details of the bus number which is going in that route.
• It is a time saving application to user.
• User can easily get the information of the bus number of a particular route.
• In this way a user will be free of confusion about the buses.
• It will also be very helpful for those people who are new to the city.

KEY FUNTIONALITY:

In the cities, especially  in India buses are major form of transportation.  So by this app we can get the information required for reaching to the desired destination. We select  the source and destination  and after  pressing  the  submit  button we get the  bus   number   of the  bus  we have to travel  . Thus this application has its importance in the city travelling.

Introduction

Existing system:

There are some bus route finders and bus number finding  systems in the internet these days But these require  internet  connectivity for the working of the application. This is somewhat money consuming. Also if the net is slow the process is also slow. And  if the net  connectivityis weak  then the process of finding the busses will also be difficult. To overcome the above problems we have developed our particular   project which will work without internet.

Proposed System:

CityBusManagement applicationthat wehave developedwill workwithout internet connectivity. This is the  major advantage  thisparticular applicationwe have developed our  project t has  a database of  its own which makes it independent of  internet,and  it displays the bus numbers  on its own.  This makes finding  of the  bus numbers easy, fast and  efficient .

The objective of this project is to create an android application “Mobile theft monitoring” where we are able to find our lost phone easily.

Sometimes we accidently tend to replace our phone somewhere and we end up searching for it. Yet sometimes we are lucky to get our phones back but sometimes we never get it back.

Hence to avoid such situations and keeping the recent demand and the greed for phones in mind we have decided to develop this application “mobile theft monitoring”.

This application gets activated as soon as the person who has stolen the phone changes the sim and switches on the phone. The user will not know that an automatic message is being sent to the predefined number.

This message will contain the sim details as well as the location details. This information will be sent as a message to the destined number till the application is uninstalled in the mobile. This will be like a torture to the user and makes it easy to find the location of the phone and track the user.

The location of the device is found using GPS and the details are sent to the predefined number in the form of a message as soon as the user changes the sim and switches on the phone .

The application also consists of the setting of the number to which the message regarding the sim and the location details are to be sent.

In this application all the operations are done in the background using the concept called “service”.

Thus “mobile theft monitoring” is a useful application which helps us to track and find the device in an effective manner.

INTRODUCTION

Nowadays since the usage of phones has increased ,the demand for  creative and new applications has also increased .

The security of mobile phones play an important   role hence we decided to create a project   called “mobile theft  monitoring”.

PROJECT ANALYSIS

It is an appication where it helps the user to find out where the device is if it is stolen.when the person steals the phone and changes the sim an  automatic  message which displayes the location of the device ,sim number,phone number, imsi number  will be sent  to a number  which  we specify in the settings . thus the device that has been stolan will be found easily .

In our appication we have the facility to specify the num to which a msg about the location.

The application also consists of the setting of the number to which the message regarding the sim and the location details are to be sent .

In this application all the operation are done in the background using the concept called “service”.

A special feature of this application is that we have provided a long press for the specification of the  broadcast reciever number in the application itself which the user will not know. The screen that will be displayed to him

SCOPE:

The scope of this project is that we will be able to get our device back and we will get the sim details even if the person has changed the sim . In addition to that we will also get the phone number and the location  details which makes the theft monitoring action an easy task.

The objective is to design a simple, intuitive interface with limited screen estate for the monitoring of the theft action.

FEATURES:

The main feature of this project is that this application does not need any special indication or operation, the sim and location details are automatically sent as a message to the destined number as soon as the user changes the sim and switches on the phone .

Another feature of this project is that we have the option to put the sim in white list , so that it traces only if a new sim has been inserted by another person and not our permanent number.

Usually when a device is lost we have applications where only the location of the phone is sent to another phone but in our project the SIM details and the location details are sent to the destined number making the tracking process a less tedious job.

Our project works in such a way that the user will not be knowing that the sim and the location details is being sent as a message to a specified number as soon as he changes the sim switches on the phone.

Since nowadays the craze and the greed for phones has increased it is becoming highly difficult to protect and safeguard our devices Hence we have proposed this project in such away to get our devices back even if it gets stolen.

Existing system with limitations:

In the existing phones we only have the facility where the location of the device is tracked and is sent back to the user.

In such cases if the user has lost his phone and the person who has taken the device changes the sim and replaces it with another sim then the tracking of location will be of no use since the sim has been replaced with another sim . and even if ther is a provision of sending the location of the device to another android phone ,the information is not enough to find out the location of the device.

This application combines both the details that is the sim and the location details and sends it in a message to the predefined number making the tracking of the device an easy  task.

Proposed system with features:

In our application “mobile theft monitoring”  gives both the sim details as well as the location details of the device which has been stolen.

As soon as the user removes the sim and replaces it with another sim the GPS tracks the location of the device and sends it in the form of a message to the predefined number which has been set by the owner of the phone.

Additionally this application takes all the sim details such as phone number, sim serial number and the imsi number and sends these details as a message to the predefined number .

ABSTRACT: The Crazy Alarm Android Project is quite different from the standard alarm application which we use daily.Sure wake up of the user is achieved with this application. The Application consist of an alarm personalization menu where user needs to enter the details for setting the alarm. Once the alarm is set , it gets scheduled . Whenever the scheduled time arrives, the alarm raises. Basically , in any alarm application when the alarm raises at scheduled time , the two operations that user can perform are : STOP and SNOOZE. But , my application when it raises , it asks some number of mathematical and logical questions randomly to which the user must answer.   It is must , because until and unless the user solve those questions , the alarm tone plays in the background. The only way to stop the alarm is to solve the questions ,during this process the user comes out from drowsy through which the main aim of the app is achieved. So that,the user can ensure sure wake up. CONCLUSION  We have proposed and built a Crazy Alarm application, which can be used to add a layer of accountability to any android mobile , which helps user to ensure his sure wake up.The project is mainly to differentiate the Standard alarm application which we have in our mobiles where we find only stop and snooze operations where as in the presently developed project.

Abstract:

Slide navigator is an android application for sliding the pages of the PowerPoint presentation through smart phones. Here the computer and the smart phone must have internet facility. Here the user requests to the server through port and server checks the port and verifies it, when the details are matched it moves to further process to navigate the ppt presentation. These presentations can be handled by the user from anywhere by navigating with a single touch making it more easier.

Existing system:

Earlier the presentation was done only through the computers where one person would handle the slides and the other would present the slides. where it requires two persons to operate.

Proposed system:

The application when installed in smart phones acts as a remote control but the difference is that slides can be handled from any amount of distance convenient to the user and this can be done only by a single person just by clicking a button.

 

ABSTRACT:

 The main objective of this Profile Changer through SMS Android Application is to help finding a missed mobile through a single SMS.

A profile changer is an android application which is useful for security purpose without any user interaction. This application is used when you don’t find your mobile i.e., when it is kept in a silent profile mode, it can be automatically activated to the general mode through a message.

About Project:

This is a project mainly responsible for changing the profile such as silent, vibrate, flight, meeting into general mode through an SMS.  Using this project any people who have missed or unable to find their mobile can easily access their mobile phone by sending an SMS from any other mobile. When an SMS is sent to the missed mobile the profile which is in silent mode automatically gets activated into general mode. This can be done when the application is installed in the mobile phone. This type of application is very much useful as security purpose.

Existing System with Drawbacks 

1. This is not compatible in mobile screen.
2. Not easy to change the profiles.
3. Profile changing can be done through blacklists but there is no profile changer through SMS application till now.

Proposed System with Advantages 

   The proposed system contains how the mobile phone has to be accessed through an SMS. It is a mobile app so it is compatible in every mobile. This android based app helps in accessing a missing mobile. The mobile becomes accessible thus secured.

Future scope 

   A lock screen of a mobile phone can be opened as well as pictures can be taken using a camera through SMS.

 MODULES

1. User Module

2. Receiver Module

1. User Module: In this module the user sends a message from another phone to activate the profile silent mode into general mode.
2. Receiver Module: In this module the receiver or the application reads the message, splits it, retrieves the key, validates the key and finally changes the profile.

We have concluded that using this application, we can change profiles of mobile phones just through sending an SMS. It is helpful for people who use mobile phones. When he/she frequently happens to have a problem in finding the mobile which is kept in silent mode can install this application and then the phone can be easily accessed by sending an SMS from another mobile phone. This app finally helps in security purpose.

About the project:

In this Phone Mode Conversion Android project we will convert any profile mode (silent) to general when the message sent is matched with the password that we had saved. If not it will be as a normal message to the mobile and will be stored in inbox.

Existing system limitations:

In the previous projects the message sent will be sent as a normal message to the other mobile .But there is no application developed to change the modes of the mobile automatically by receiving a predefined message.

Proposed system with features:

In this project we are proposing a new form of messaging to get the general mode back as a delivery report. In this project we will send a Message to my mobile, it will authenticate the message and reply mode conversion If the message is not matched with the mobile password then it will be normal message.

 INTRODUCTION:

In present days in the entire world mobiles are used most usually. So the people are expecting some new technologies in mobiles as we know android is an open source.

Our project name is “Phone Mode Conversion”. It is an application which can convert any silent, vibrate mode into general mode. This application must be installed in the receiving side of the mobile. When this application is installed in mobile it automatically runs in the background always. There is no need to open the application each and every time once it is installed in any mobile it automatically runs in background until it is uninstalled from the mobile.

Here in this project we set a predefined code which is itself a password and this password must be sent in the form of message from another mobile, then my mobile after receiving that message my application authenticates it and reacts converting from any mode to general. And if the message is not matched it will be received as a normal message.

Mostly many of the people are negligence about their mobiles as the mobile will be in silent mode and forget their mobiles somewhere and search for that again but they cannot find it, in such a case this application plays a major role in such a way that he types the predefined code like password set by (developer) and sends it from another mobile.

After my mobile receiving that message the application verifies that code and if it is matched with the code set by the developer, the mode of the mobile will be changed automatically from silent mode to general mode. Then he calls to his mobile and he can hear the ringtone of his mobile and finally he finds it back.

This application can be installed in an Android mobiles and the predefined message can be sent from any mobile, this is the major advantage of this application. This application can automatically run in background once it is installed until it is uninstalled.
