商品描述

Although wearable devices have existed since the 70s, they have only recently become mainstream. Google Glass and Android Wear smartwatches, in particular, are relatively new devices that provide countless opportunities for creating innovative apps with unprecedented user experiences. Beginning Android Wearables gives you the skills you need to take part in the wearable revolution and to delight your users by providing the information they need at the tips of their fingers.

This book is very practical and contains many examples that not only show you how to write code for Glass and Android Wear, but also demonstrate how to apply this code in the context of an app.

What you’ll learn

  • Build notifications for handheld apps that are automatically shared with Glass or Android Wear, and learn to customize these notifications specifically for wearables
  • Create apps that run directly on Android Wear devices and leverage the Android Wear SDK
  • Use the wearable UI library to build effective user interfaces for Android Wear
  • Use the wearable data layer API to share and synchronize data between a handheld device and Android Wear
  • Build custom watch faces for Android Wear
  • Build Glassware (that is, apps for Glass) using the Glass Development Kit (GDK)
  • Use the views and widgets of the GDK to build effective user interfaces for Glass
  • Receive user input on Glass with touchpad gestures, head gestures, and voice recognition
  • Take pictures and record videos on Glass by either leveraging the native camera app or with the Camera API
  • Utilize location providers and orientation sensors to build contextually sensitive apps

Who this book is for

這本書非常實用,包含許多示例,不僅展示了如何為Glass和Android Wear編寫代碼,還演示了如何在應用程序的上下文中應用此代碼。

您將學到以下內容:
- 構建與手持設備應用程序自動共享的通知,並學習為可穿戴設備定制這些通知
- 創建直接在Android Wear設備上運行並利用Android Wear SDK的應用程序
- 使用可穿戴UI庫為Android Wear構建有效的用戶界面
- 使用可穿戴數據層API在手持設備和Android Wear之間共享和同步數據
- 為Android Wear構建自定義錶盤
- 使用Glass開發套件(GDK)構建Glassware(即Glass應用程序)
- 使用GDK的視圖和小部件為Glass構建有效的用戶界面
- 通過觸控板手勢、頭部手勢和語音識別在Glass上接收用戶輸入
- 通過利用本地相機應用程序或使用相機API在Glass上拍照和錄像
- 利用位置提供者和方向傳感器構建具有上下文敏感性的應用程序
