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

Bluetooth

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
