Challenges of External Device Integration
with Mobile
Use of Analogue vs. Digital Equipment
This is an era of technological height. Before a couple of
decades, we used to use one or two digitally equipped
devices and the rest was same as before. However, the
scenario has changed dramatically fast with introduction of
more advanced and efficient smart devices like mobile
smartphones and tablet computers.
This has taken us in the time where everyone has their own
computational eco system with interoperable devices like
devices like phone, laptop, music player, etc.
All this has become possible due to facility of External Device Integration and Device Synchronization concept. We
present some fundamentals about device integration with its present scenario and challenges for the road ahead.
Have a look!
It's a digital world! We have shifted from analogue systems to digitized
applications step by step over last few decades. And now, we are at a
stage where we need to redefine everything we do.
We can easily see increased use of Smartphones and tablet devices. But if
we closely observe, we will see that we have gone digital in almost
everything we use. Usage meters, television experience, still and video
cameras, equipment used in medical sciences, food processing and a lot
other things are gradually becoming digitized day by day. Even clothing,
We've turned Digital
for military uses, have become digital so that it can monitor soldier's body statistics and report at base camp.
If all these things are working on same fundamental of digital signals and algorithms, the next thought which comes
to mind will be, can we integrate them with each other?
Well, the answer is little complicated. Even in the case of a similar logic between two devices, we cannot connect
them unless any of the devices has such provision.
But there is a link we can use to connect them and is available with about 6 million people today. Yes, it's a
Smartphone, or Tablet computer. We shall see here how it is useful, what it takes and what the challenges are.
Understanding Integration
All the devices we used previously and use today belong to a system or an environment, some of which are explained
above. For example, television, DVD player, speakers, set top box, etc. are the instruments that belong to one system
or one environment, while air conditioner, fan, light etc. belong to other. And, integration of any two devices depends
upon what system they belong to.
Hence, if we want to integrate one device with the other, there are two possibilities –
Co-system Integration
Cross-system Integration
Co-system integration is where you connect or integrate two devices of one system with each other. In the beginning
of this technological revolution, we used to integrate two devices belonging to same system analogically. Connecting
external speakers with television was never a big deal.
The challenge, however, increases a lot in the case of cross system integration where two devices belong to
completely different systems with non-matching set of rules. We first have to make a common ground or platform
where both the device can communicate. Well, it is not that tough nowadays. We shall see how.
Smartphones – an Ultimate Solution
The hurdles in integration discussed above can be answered nowadays with help of a state-of-the-art smartphone or
tablet computer. Things which were difficult executing in early stage devices used for calling or primary multimedia
operations are now very easy and more efficient with anything-is-possible devices of today's market. The more
advanced the phone, the more it can integrate with itself.
The mobile phones answer very basic and primarily important three checks for device integration procedure very
effectively.
Connectivity – A connection, either wired or wireless is needed between two devices for
integration. Type of connection depends upon requirements of integration. More
sophisticated and advanced connection types have come in the market in recent years.
Mobiles can either be primary or secondary device connected for integration or they can provide third party
connection between two devices which is not possible otherwise. Also, advancement of wireless communication has
led to elimination of cables from connection reducing the complexity in integration process.
Compatibility – A common platform for data and information sharing and transferring is
needed for device integration. The compatibility allows one device to understand language of
the other device and vice versa.
Security – Any device, when exposed to other environment, raises issues related to security.
To eliminate this, certain procedures for identity recognition in the phase of connection is
needed. This security verifies not only identity but also defines whether or not the access is
to be granted.
With more and more operating systems, coding platforms and utility apps becoming open source, it is now easy to
answer the compatibility issues mostly found in cross-system integration. In addition, mobiles have made entire
integration procedure easier and more user-friendly.
If we put aside the discussion of integration for a while, then also we can see variety of security features and
standards added in latest smartphones. Apple products do not accept anything without conversion in their platform.
The information encoding has become rich with help of QR codes and NFC which decreases possibilities of errors
compared to early stage. This helps a lot while integrating devices like POS for financial transactions.
What It Takes
Any external device integration problem raises two questions:
Hardware requirement of the problem and
Fulfillment of necessary Software base for integration
Hardware – Hardware requirement is generated from connectivity or from data tracking. For example, GPS based
apps use specific antenna for connection while apps related to driving use specific device which takes care of car
statistics. Fabulous device integration possibilities can be generated using a camera in your smartphone. Wi-Fi,
Bluetooth and Mobile Internet antenna can also add to the list.
Need of particular hardware depends completely upon type of external device and output requirement of such
integration. It can vary from a simple connector or mobile holding stand to advanced graphic support on main board.
In addition, fitting all the micro hardware in a tiny device raises more challenges to the industry and requires more
logical solution to base design of the device without making compromise.
Devices in the current time are equipped with most advanced hardware such as High Definition cameras, fast and
efficient processors, highly sensitive and smart touch screens and a lot others. Some of them are internal and some
can be purchased and connected externally. For external connection, necessary ports are required in your device
which is again hardware.
Software – The key part and the game maker is software for current market. Bunch of open source platforms have
made most of the External Device Integration problems solved in no time and effort. In addition, a rapid development
is taking place in smartphone usage platforms with high level of competition. Hence, software industry is promising
for this field.
An example of use of software for external integration was hypnotized by Warner Brothers, Inc. in their film, The Dark
Knight, where a smartphone can turn into Sonar using same frequency of operation which is used for mobile
communication, and generates video output on the phone itself without any hardware requirements.
OS: Key Role Player – Operating System is the key role player in software part of device integration. Symbian,
Windows and Blackberry OS transformed the era of multimedia phones to early stage smartphones. Smartphone
Operating Systems today are either open source or adaptive for any type of mobile app with very less hardware
requirements.
While Apple Inc. brings innovation with variety of apps which invite more and more external devices to be integrated
with, Google Inc. leverages external integration functionality to various handsets using latest Android versions in its
open source policy. With Android 4.2 Jelly Bean update, you can now take into account support to more speed in
RAM and processor and some fabulous apps that use its high-end feature of Sphere Camera, gesture typing key-pad,
Current Scenario in External Device Integration
In this section, we shall see where we are in the field of Mobile Device Integration
and where this road leads us. Many mobile apps today uses your car, sound
system, remote, laptop, alarm, other phones, POS and a lot other devices in a
totally adaptive manner with never before smoothness. Let's review some
examples given below.
Remote Control: to and from – In most primary stages too, smartphones had turned remote controls. Smart TVs can
use smartphones as remote control. In addition, devices like SwivlTM use Smartphone camera in unique way and can
make your smartphone operate by a small remote control. The device supports iOS, Android as well as other smart
devices.
Various Utilities for Drivers using GPS and Radar technology – A lot of mobile apps which synchronize various car
operations are available in the market. These apps are easy to operate and are designed for ease of driving experience
and monitoring other issues related to car and traffic. You can easily connect your phone to your car's electronics
system with bluetooth. You not only can lock-unlock the car but can monitor speed, fuel, get directions, locate nearby
gas station, car locator from parking and a lot more.
Apple's iOnRoad is an app which not only uses current iPhone features but also an additional concept of Augmented
Reality to generate accurate results while tracing speeds of both – your's and next vehicle to deliver output in the form
of time by which you can reach to it.
Integrate other devices with smartphone and use them from anywhere – Softweb Solutions has generated a
fabulous mobile app which integrates all your home or office equipments with your smartphone or tablet and you can
easily operate them from any location you want.
Cobra – PhoneLynx
You can connect to your home phone, access its data, recorded messages, generate address book and quick contact
list. A lot ease of operation is made possible with such innovative device integration concept.
Financial System Integration – We have reached at the level where we do
not need to carry multiple identity cards and access codes for financial
transactions. All we have to do is to connect our smartphone with POS
terminal and we can transfer money, access and generate account
statements, generate billing and invoices, etc.
Using your Smartphone as a POS terminal takes a lot challenge in device integration. It has to combine hardware
support for POS extension, can be able to read account information present on the card and have to synch the same
with bank using high speed- internet. In addition, security becomes unavoidable issue with such financial service
integration apps.
Speed Measure using Smartphone – It is not that only car driving requires speed measurement and devices only
from car electronics can be integrated. Shaka LLC has brought an extremely simple yet useful device integration
system for iPhone and Android users for measuring speed of wind.
Conclusive Remarks
We have achieved a lot and even more is yet to come in the field of External Device Integration.
With phones becoming smarter and smarter every day, we can foresee a great future with mobile device integration
from both user and business perspectives. Integration of devices can provide great solution to corporate companies.
It solves identity, data transfer, work tracking and security issues at once. With more and more devices falling under
'Integrate-able' category, life is becoming simpler and smarter!

External Device Integration with Mobile

  • 1. Solutions Challenges of External Device Integration with Mobile
  • 2. Use of Analogue vs. Digital Equipment This is an era of technological height. Before a couple of decades, we used to use one or two digitally equipped devices and the rest was same as before. However, the scenario has changed dramatically fast with introduction of more advanced and efficient smart devices like mobile smartphones and tablet computers. This has taken us in the time where everyone has their own computational eco system with interoperable devices like devices like phone, laptop, music player, etc. All this has become possible due to facility of External Device Integration and Device Synchronization concept. We present some fundamentals about device integration with its present scenario and challenges for the road ahead. Have a look! It's a digital world! We have shifted from analogue systems to digitized applications step by step over last few decades. And now, we are at a stage where we need to redefine everything we do. We can easily see increased use of Smartphones and tablet devices. But if we closely observe, we will see that we have gone digital in almost everything we use. Usage meters, television experience, still and video cameras, equipment used in medical sciences, food processing and a lot other things are gradually becoming digitized day by day. Even clothing, We've turned Digital for military uses, have become digital so that it can monitor soldier's body statistics and report at base camp. If all these things are working on same fundamental of digital signals and algorithms, the next thought which comes to mind will be, can we integrate them with each other? Well, the answer is little complicated. Even in the case of a similar logic between two devices, we cannot connect them unless any of the devices has such provision. But there is a link we can use to connect them and is available with about 6 million people today. Yes, it's a Smartphone, or Tablet computer. We shall see here how it is useful, what it takes and what the challenges are.
  • 3. Understanding Integration All the devices we used previously and use today belong to a system or an environment, some of which are explained above. For example, television, DVD player, speakers, set top box, etc. are the instruments that belong to one system or one environment, while air conditioner, fan, light etc. belong to other. And, integration of any two devices depends upon what system they belong to. Hence, if we want to integrate one device with the other, there are two possibilities – Co-system Integration Cross-system Integration Co-system integration is where you connect or integrate two devices of one system with each other. In the beginning of this technological revolution, we used to integrate two devices belonging to same system analogically. Connecting external speakers with television was never a big deal. The challenge, however, increases a lot in the case of cross system integration where two devices belong to completely different systems with non-matching set of rules. We first have to make a common ground or platform where both the device can communicate. Well, it is not that tough nowadays. We shall see how. Smartphones – an Ultimate Solution The hurdles in integration discussed above can be answered nowadays with help of a state-of-the-art smartphone or tablet computer. Things which were difficult executing in early stage devices used for calling or primary multimedia operations are now very easy and more efficient with anything-is-possible devices of today's market. The more advanced the phone, the more it can integrate with itself. The mobile phones answer very basic and primarily important three checks for device integration procedure very effectively. Connectivity – A connection, either wired or wireless is needed between two devices for integration. Type of connection depends upon requirements of integration. More sophisticated and advanced connection types have come in the market in recent years. Mobiles can either be primary or secondary device connected for integration or they can provide third party connection between two devices which is not possible otherwise. Also, advancement of wireless communication has led to elimination of cables from connection reducing the complexity in integration process. Compatibility – A common platform for data and information sharing and transferring is needed for device integration. The compatibility allows one device to understand language of the other device and vice versa.
  • 4. Security – Any device, when exposed to other environment, raises issues related to security. To eliminate this, certain procedures for identity recognition in the phase of connection is needed. This security verifies not only identity but also defines whether or not the access is to be granted. With more and more operating systems, coding platforms and utility apps becoming open source, it is now easy to answer the compatibility issues mostly found in cross-system integration. In addition, mobiles have made entire integration procedure easier and more user-friendly. If we put aside the discussion of integration for a while, then also we can see variety of security features and standards added in latest smartphones. Apple products do not accept anything without conversion in their platform. The information encoding has become rich with help of QR codes and NFC which decreases possibilities of errors compared to early stage. This helps a lot while integrating devices like POS for financial transactions. What It Takes Any external device integration problem raises two questions: Hardware requirement of the problem and Fulfillment of necessary Software base for integration Hardware – Hardware requirement is generated from connectivity or from data tracking. For example, GPS based apps use specific antenna for connection while apps related to driving use specific device which takes care of car statistics. Fabulous device integration possibilities can be generated using a camera in your smartphone. Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and Mobile Internet antenna can also add to the list. Need of particular hardware depends completely upon type of external device and output requirement of such integration. It can vary from a simple connector or mobile holding stand to advanced graphic support on main board. In addition, fitting all the micro hardware in a tiny device raises more challenges to the industry and requires more logical solution to base design of the device without making compromise. Devices in the current time are equipped with most advanced hardware such as High Definition cameras, fast and efficient processors, highly sensitive and smart touch screens and a lot others. Some of them are internal and some can be purchased and connected externally. For external connection, necessary ports are required in your device which is again hardware. Software – The key part and the game maker is software for current market. Bunch of open source platforms have made most of the External Device Integration problems solved in no time and effort. In addition, a rapid development is taking place in smartphone usage platforms with high level of competition. Hence, software industry is promising for this field.
  • 5. An example of use of software for external integration was hypnotized by Warner Brothers, Inc. in their film, The Dark Knight, where a smartphone can turn into Sonar using same frequency of operation which is used for mobile communication, and generates video output on the phone itself without any hardware requirements. OS: Key Role Player – Operating System is the key role player in software part of device integration. Symbian, Windows and Blackberry OS transformed the era of multimedia phones to early stage smartphones. Smartphone Operating Systems today are either open source or adaptive for any type of mobile app with very less hardware requirements. While Apple Inc. brings innovation with variety of apps which invite more and more external devices to be integrated with, Google Inc. leverages external integration functionality to various handsets using latest Android versions in its open source policy. With Android 4.2 Jelly Bean update, you can now take into account support to more speed in RAM and processor and some fabulous apps that use its high-end feature of Sphere Camera, gesture typing key-pad, Current Scenario in External Device Integration In this section, we shall see where we are in the field of Mobile Device Integration and where this road leads us. Many mobile apps today uses your car, sound system, remote, laptop, alarm, other phones, POS and a lot other devices in a totally adaptive manner with never before smoothness. Let's review some examples given below. Remote Control: to and from – In most primary stages too, smartphones had turned remote controls. Smart TVs can use smartphones as remote control. In addition, devices like SwivlTM use Smartphone camera in unique way and can make your smartphone operate by a small remote control. The device supports iOS, Android as well as other smart devices. Various Utilities for Drivers using GPS and Radar technology – A lot of mobile apps which synchronize various car operations are available in the market. These apps are easy to operate and are designed for ease of driving experience and monitoring other issues related to car and traffic. You can easily connect your phone to your car's electronics system with bluetooth. You not only can lock-unlock the car but can monitor speed, fuel, get directions, locate nearby gas station, car locator from parking and a lot more. Apple's iOnRoad is an app which not only uses current iPhone features but also an additional concept of Augmented Reality to generate accurate results while tracing speeds of both – your's and next vehicle to deliver output in the form of time by which you can reach to it.
  • 6. Integrate other devices with smartphone and use them from anywhere – Softweb Solutions has generated a fabulous mobile app which integrates all your home or office equipments with your smartphone or tablet and you can easily operate them from any location you want. Cobra – PhoneLynx You can connect to your home phone, access its data, recorded messages, generate address book and quick contact list. A lot ease of operation is made possible with such innovative device integration concept. Financial System Integration – We have reached at the level where we do not need to carry multiple identity cards and access codes for financial transactions. All we have to do is to connect our smartphone with POS terminal and we can transfer money, access and generate account statements, generate billing and invoices, etc. Using your Smartphone as a POS terminal takes a lot challenge in device integration. It has to combine hardware support for POS extension, can be able to read account information present on the card and have to synch the same with bank using high speed- internet. In addition, security becomes unavoidable issue with such financial service integration apps. Speed Measure using Smartphone – It is not that only car driving requires speed measurement and devices only from car electronics can be integrated. Shaka LLC has brought an extremely simple yet useful device integration system for iPhone and Android users for measuring speed of wind.
  • 7. Conclusive Remarks We have achieved a lot and even more is yet to come in the field of External Device Integration. With phones becoming smarter and smarter every day, we can foresee a great future with mobile device integration from both user and business perspectives.
