Changes

• Bluetooth code
• Running on the PC was coded in c instead of
  Python due to language constraints.
• Bluetooth Vibra Agent
• Name change from Kiara agent to Bluetooth Vibra
  Agent, was done to describe its functionality
  better.
• User Interface Specifications
• Made more simpler, just show that a type of IM
  was received.
• Buttons reduced for simplicity as well, to remove
  unnecessary options.
• High Level Design
• More classes added to the Bluetooth Vibra Agent,
  while others were redefined. Number of subclass
  change from 5 to 11.
• Low Level Designs
• Same changes as the HLD but obviously in terms of
  pseudo code.

Demo

• Kiara Agent Application
• Look and feel.
• The system
• Kiara receives a phone call
• The win32 application notices this and runs the
  Bluetooth code.
• Bluetooth code tries to send the phone a message
• Problems encountered
• The Bluetooth code seems to send a message
  through to the phone but the phone never receives
  it.
• Not enough or little information on Bluetooth
  Protocol and Stack implementation. Some reasons
  from the forums is that because Bluetooth is
  Free so its no well sponsored.
