Milestone Description

Develop a native mobile application for controlling the Open Source Sex Machine (OSSM) using Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) connectivity. This milestone builds upon the NimBLE Bluetooth implementation from the xToys integration and utilizes the message queue system for efficient communication.

Dependencies

• Completion of NimBLE Bluetooth implementation from the xToys integration milestone

Objectives

1. Leverage the app controller created by Research and Desire
2. Implement BLE connectivity using the NimBLE library
3. Integrate the message queue system for managing app-OSSM communication
4. Develop a user-friendly interface for OSSM control
5. Ensure compatibility with both Android and iOS platforms
6. Optimize for performance and responsiveness

Key Features

• Direct OSSM control via BLE without internet connectivity
• User-friendly interface for adjusting OSSM parameters
• Real-time responsiveness leveraging the message queue system
• Compatibility with modern Android and iOS devices
• No user authentication or sign-in required

Technical Requirements

• Integration with NimBLE Bluetooth library
• Implementation of the shared message queue system
• Development of platform-specific code for Android and iOS
• Optimization of BLE communication for low-latency control

Development Approach

• The core BLE code will be contributed to the open-source OSSM repository
• The full application will remain closed-source
• Focus on creating a standalone app that doesn't require internet connectivity

Success Criteria

• Stable BLE connection between the app and OSSM
• Consistent and responsive control of OSSM functions
• Successful operation on both Android and iOS platforms
• Positive user feedback on app usability and responsiveness
• Seamless integration with the OSSM's message queue system

Resources

• Research and Desire app controller
• NimBLE library documentation
• OSSM repository and documentation
• Android and iOS development guidelines
• BLE optimization techniques

Notes

• This milestone is blocked by the completion of the NimBLE Bluetooth implementation in the xToys integration milestone
• The application will not require any credentials, sign-in, or internet connectivity
• Only the BLE-related code will be contributed to the open-source repository
