NexJ Medical Peripheral Mobile Adapter Will be designed to enable NexJ's Mobile Healthcare solutions to interact with Bluetooth peripherals.
- Main article: Phonegap Healthcare Adapter
Contents
Class Diagram
Classes
phonegapMedicalDeviceInterface
- Interface to a medical device for use by the NexJ mobile health solution
- Implemented in Javascript
medicalDevice
- Representation of a medical device
- Delegates to a native medical device interface
- Implemented in Javascript
nativeMedicalDeviceInterface
- Private interface to physical medical devices
- Implemented in native code (Objective C on iOS, java on Android)
bluetoothAdapter
- Adapter to allow medical device objects to interact with communication libraries on the device
- In the future a Wifi adapter will also be needed to fulfill the same role of communication over another protocol
- Implemented in native code
bloodPressureBluetoothAdapter
- Adapter to allow medical device objects to interact with specific medical peripherals
- These will be needed for each type of medical peripheral
- Implemented in native code
Native Bluetooth API
- Libraries on the mobile devices SDK that allows programmable interaction with Bluetooth devices
Blood Pressure Device
- Physical medical device peripheral
Flaws
- Should we be concerned about managing the instances of medicalDevice or will the rest of the solution
- Rest of the application: It becomes more of a Medical device factory
- This Project: Another layer should be added to represent a device manager
- bloodPressureBluetoothAdapter should know about specific device communication without relying on any specific communication protocol, otherwise it will need be reimplemented per communication adapter(eg. BluetoothAdapter, WifiAdapter)
Mobile Device Libraries
iOS
Wifi
- Unknown at this time
Bluetooth
- CBCentralManager entry point to Bluetooth communication
- Allows querying of devices
- Can list connected devices
- Can connect to devices, creating CBPreripheral Objects
- CBPeripheral's allows reading and writing of CBCharacteristic Objects
- Can listen for changes to characteristics
- Writing and reading is event driven programing via callback parameters
- CBCharacteristic's represent a piece of data from a device along with semantic data
Android
Wifi
- WifiP2pManager is the starting point for all peer to peer communication
- Upon initialization devices connections can be established
- Peers can be queried
Bluetooth
- Supports many 'paired' devices
- BluetoothAdapter is the starting point for all Bluetooth communication
- Discover devices
- Query addresses
- Get remote BluetoothDevice objects
- Control BluetoothProfile's
- Create listening sockets to addresses
- Classes Implementing BluetoothProfile can be queried for BluetoothDevice Objects, implementing classes:
- BluetoothDevice objects allow the creation secure and insecure Bluetooth socket's
- These all data transfer between physical devices
- Bluetooth protocols are transparent
