Is there any way to see in one compact view details about the signals, taken from the Jawbone UP wristband in real-time? I am personally interested in detecting light, REM and deep sleep and have access in real-time while someone is sleeping.
Thanks!
If i am not mistaken, this is official page for developers that describes API for all Jawbone products. Check SDK for iOS/Android(depending on which platform u are developing), here is example of Jawbone SDK for Android, and it looks good documented
Currently, it is not possible to get real-time sleep depth values from UP. These values are not calculated until the user wakes up and then the entire sleep is evaluated.
This may change in the future.

I am not a coder and having a web platform built with PHP that includes a series of 1-1 video chats in a scheduled networking "event". The problem that the developer is not able to solve with the video plug in that they are using (https://www.magnoliyan.com/video-chat-pro/) is that the user needs to give camera permisson before each chat. I need this permisson to happen one time only at the beginning of the event and not need there to be any further permission giving throughout the event. Of course I would like this to work on all platforms. I'm exploring agora.io as an option to solve this and replace the current plug in with agora. Does anyone know if agora would be the right fit for this or which video chat platform I should use to accomplish this? And if there is specific developer kind of language or code - please speak in as if I was a developer and I will pass on what you say to him directly. You don't need to worry about whether I will understand it.
Thanks!

Agora.io like any other WebRTC provider requests device camera permission only once. And all subsequent Videocall won't need any special permission (provided that they are on the same domain)
More specifically, Agora.io requests browser permission when stream.init method is invoked. This also turns on the camera light. stream.close turns off the camera light and deallocates the resources.
However, the subsequent stream.init function calls do not require permissions. (Camera light will just turn on)

I'm 100% sure that this isn't the right form to post a question like this, but I hope someone on here has the answer to my question.
Is there advertising platform that sends a true or false response dependent on if the user finishes the ad video to the server so I can add points to the users account.
(I don't need help adding points, or creating a point system, just an advertising platform that would be easy to integrate with the videos on my site)
I understand if this isn't the right forum for this, if someone could point me in the right direction. Before you say anything, yes I have googled, just can't find anything that suits my needs.
You need a video player that supports the VAST protocol
VAST provides a common protocol that enables ad servers to use a
single ad response format across multiple publishers/video players
This format allows to specify the so-called tracking elements - URIs that would be called once a particular events occurs. You can manually provide a VAST xml response with a tracking element for a video completion event.
Also consider using DFP to serve your video ads - it's free up until a certain traffic volume and would track everything you might need
Hi I am developing an android app which needs to send alert to the fitness device worn by the user.Basically it should make the band vibrate or sound an alarm.
I checked many bands including mapmyrun,jawbone etc but they are not exposing this api.
Have you seen GoogleFit? It is supposed to be integrated with all of them, so you can use a Vivofit, Fitbit or the one you want. Not sure if this is the correct answer, but for sure it will give you some clues about it. Hope it helps!
I just found out that Fitbit gives this feature for some of their bands
https://dev.fitbit.com/docs/devices/#alarms
"Fitbit activity trackers (excluding MobileTrack) have the ability to set alarms.
Get Alarms
Resource URL
GET https://api.fitbit.com/1/user/[user-id]/devices/tracker/[tracker-id]/alarms.json"
I searched about this on google but could not find any suitable answer so posting here for help.
I want to implement video streaming with multiple participants connected. While google this topic I found that WebRTC provide similar functionality but I want to make sure whether WebRTC can support all my requirements.
I want to build an application that should support large number of participants in conference (around 10000).
I want to implement facility like one participant is broadcasting its video and audio streams and other are just listening to their stream.
Also when prompted only one participant will be able to communicate with broadcaster which will be managed by one participant (a administrator). Administrator will decide who can communicate with broadcaster.
Is same can be possible with any other WebAPI ?? I found OpenTok, but not confident if it provide any feature of moderation in conference (i.e. feature of having an Administrator who manages stuff)
Did anybody worked on similar concept or having any information related to this.
Let me know if I am not clear of any further details are required.
Any help would be useful,
Thanks in anticipation
Hardik - I am Product Manager at TokBox, the makers of the OpenTok platform. Good news: TokBox can fulfill virtually all of your requirements, but with a few caveats.
TokBox has been building a video chat/conferencing platform for years, long before WebRTC even existed in fact. In that time we have supported many customers with almost your exact requirements on OpenTok, a platform that is based on Flash (Major League Baseball is one such customer). Building applications on this architecture has the added advantage of solving virtually all of the interop issues that exist when connecting people using different devices and browsers. It is based on Flash however, which technically doesn't meet your WebRTC requirement. So you know, there's that.
WebRTC is where it's at though, which is why we created OpenTok for WebRTC in 2012. It was a complete rewrite of the platform that not only provides higher quality video, but also gives developers more hooks and far more control over how exactly they integrate video and audio chat into their primary customer experience.
Currently in beta (as of this writing in June 2013) are two new components in our WebRTC infrastructure. The first we refer to as Mantis, which solves many of the challenges associated with hosting large multi-party calls. The other is Cloud Raptor, which gives developers access to a stream of events stemming from a WebRTC session, and through which developers can issue events and commands of their own. Raptor is what enables you for example to moderate calls, boot participants, and control whose audio and video streams are broadcast to all the other participants.
So, TokBox has what you need. In the short term we can help you get up and running using OpenTok pretty quickly. Then we can discuss with you how to get you onto OpenTok for WebRTC and into our Mantis and Raptor beta program.
I have a live tile working which updates how many users are online and how many lobbies are open within the app. This begins updating when my app loses its visibility (no point it updating the live tile whilst the app is running), but I want it to update when I first turn the computer on.
I have had a look around and mentions of making the app a lock screen app have popped up but that is all, no explanation how to do it.
Does anyone know how to do this and provide a nice little explanation or link of how to do so?
Many thanks,
Kevin
You should use push notifications for this kind of behaviour. This msdn link has more info:-
Using tile notifications
Choosing the right notification method to update your tile
There are several mechanisms which can be used to update a live tile:
Local API calls
One-time scheduled notifications, using local content
Push notifications, sent from a cloud server
Periodic notifications, which pull information from a cloud server at a fixed time interval
The choice of which mechanism to use largely depends on the content you want to show and how frequently that content should be updated. The majority of apps will probably use a local API call to update the tile when the app is launched or the state changes within the app. This makes sure that the tile is up-to-date when it launches and exits. The choice of using local, push, scheduled, or polling notifications, alone or in some combination, completely depends upon the app. For example, a game can use local API calls to update the tile when a new high score is reached by the player. At the same time, that same game app could use push notifications to send that same user new high scores achieved by their friends.
You're right with the assumption that you require a lock screen capability to be able to run background tasks without your app being started once. The main process would be to extract the part of your application that gets the data into a background task that is probably triggered by a timer and write some code to be on the lock screen.
When I first encountered that restriction I was kind of surprised, but in terms of battery performance this design decision makes sense: Only consume battery power if the data is absolutely worth it. If it's worth, it is also of interest having it on the lock screen.
On MSDN is a good overview about lock screen along with further reading links. It's much better than what I could type in here. Come back with problems related the implementation (which actually even better fits the purpose of SO). This blog might be useful, too.
