SC Sound Command Demo

This version is in test mode and may not work properly on all devices that it can be installed on, due to changes in most recent versions of Android. Please report issues to sergemasse1@yahoo.com

Designed to demonstrate the execution of custom sound commands emitted by dolphins (or others) and captured and recognized in real-time by the DC Dolphin Communicator app, also for Android. The human user can define the frequencies of a sound command in DC, a dolphin or other participant emits the sound command, DC recognizes it in real-time, sends it to this app, which executes the programmed logic for it, and sends the results back to DC.

Using this app as an example, Android programmers can write their own app to process customized sound command via DC.

The present app is also designed to demonstrate the effectiveness of DC for implementing sound commands and automated responses to dolphin signals. This may be useful in an authentic sanctuary to help ensure the health of the animals under care.

the transmission of the command (sc-test) to CustomSoundCommandDemo;

app name later.

The app CustomSoundCommandDemo is run and is shown by Android.

7. Select the EXECUTE button which will generate a test text in the results field.

8. Select the SEND SUCCESS TO DC button, and this will send the results back to DC.
