[Android Wear] android wearable device Moto 360 evaluation and development analysis, Android android
Preface:

I just bought Moto 360 yesterday. This is the best Android wearable device that the landlord has seen so far, a round watch:

BesBuy and the official website are all sold out .. This is what I heard from the author that I bought with bestbuy.

This is a common workbook in shape, but it actually contains a lot of functions. The most exciting thing is its circular dial, which is more attractive than square Android watches on the market.

The only regret is .. Not a complete circle (from Virgo ..) This is actually understandable: it is also possible to make a complete circle, but it will inevitably increase or thicken the dial-because space is needed to put the IC and some lines, the beauty and practicality will be greatly reduced. Otherwise, moto has no reason to make it like this .. So it is really difficult to make a good design, but this does not affect the damage of Moto 360.

Maybe you only use android as a helper or a toy, but the appearance of Moto 360, you may seriously consider using Android smart watches as your next electronic product purchase plan.

Main functions:

Of course, as a watch, the necessary function must be the display time. Moto360 allows you to conveniently and quickly display the time.

If you want to see the time, as long as you turn your wrist and align your watch with your eyes, it will be awakened and the time interface will be displayed to you.

Of course, there are not many interface modes at present. There are 6 or 7 built-in modes. You can choose the classic watch mode you like, the electronic clock mode, or the simple mode. With the popularization of wearable devices, more developers will focus on Wearable devices. At that time, there will certainly be more modes for users to choose from.

Second, it is the acceptance of the notification. Moto360 connects your smart watch to your mobile phone through Bluetooth technology. When you receive text messages, missed calls, or notifications from other apps, you can view them on your watch, or click the notification on the watch to open it on the mobile phone, which is very convenient and beautiful.

Another nice thing is wireless charging. Before purchasing the watch, I was wondering how to charge it? When I find my watch on a small table seat, it will automatically charge, with only one idea: Buy

The metal shell and waterproof table body will make you feel better. The leather strap is very comfortable to wear, and there is no adhesive or cold feeling at all, without any discomfort.

If you do not like the strap, you can go to the jewelry store to configure a metal chain belt that you like ~

There are also some other features integrated with the previous wearable devices, such as heartbeat testing, pedometer, alarm clock, and running.

Stopwatch:

Heart Rate Measurement:

Before google released the I/O conference, we talked about Android wear and the corresponding SDK. so far, many mobile phone companies already have Android wearable devices, LG and Samsung.

However, Apple's iWatch was officially launched in next January. I personally feel that the design philosophy of moto 360 is more reasonable than that of iWatch. We don't need or want to waste time on our watches-just do it on our cell phones. Therefore, the operations on the mobile phone are simple click, slide, view, and voice functions. IWatch feels like it .. You don't want to play games on your watch ..

I believe that in the future, wearable devices will be popularized among young people, and more features will be developed. Learning about the development of some wearable devices and combining Mobile Phone applications will inevitably be the trend and trend of the future.

Differences between wearable devices and handheld devices:

The wearable device runs directly on the device and allows you to access the sensor and GPU. All applications are built using sdks, but there is a big difference in design and usage:

(1) The system forces a time-out period: (about 5 seconds) If you do not continue to click it, it enters sleep mode. After all, the biggest problem with wearable devices is power. After all, for example, a smart watch remains in the light state, and the battery will soon be consumed. Therefore, energy saving is the primary consideration. And when you wake it up again, it displays the main screen instead of the activity you just saw.

(2) The size and function of the wearable device are smaller (less) than those of applications on the mobile phone ). therefore, in terms of design, it is generally time-consuming and requires a lot of interactive operations on the mobile phone, and then the results are displayed on the wearable device.

(3) The other point is that you don't directly download the android wear app to your device, but instead, bind your wearable app to your mobile app and download it to your mobile phone, then it is automatically installed on your wearable device. Of course, the development process can be directly downloaded to the mobile phone.

(4) wearable devices can access standard Android APIs, but do not include APIs such as webkit and appwidget.

After configuring Android Studio, I finally connected it to the wearable device. According to international practices, I wrote a hello world Program and put it on my watch,

Where is the coordinate origin of an android wear round watch (moto360?

For software development, the coordinate origin is in the upper left corner!
 
How does a MOTO 360 watch pair with a Samsung mobile phone?

Hello!
According to your description.
1 MOTO 360 was just launched, so it only supports pairing with Samsung mobile phones (Android os4.3 or above)
What kind of mobile phone is your SamSung mobile phone? If 4.3 is officially pushed, we recommend that you connect Kies to your PC,
Use Kies for manual upgrade.

2. You need a google Account for pairing. We recommend that you apply for a Google Account on your PC. You can still log on to Google UK to apply.
There is no google account under the account option added to the mobile phone.
You must have the complete ROOT phone (not one-click ROOT )!!
Then install Google Service Framework and Google PLAY.

3. Fqrouter2 is not required for MOTO 360 !! But Google is required !!

Hope this will help you !!
