CSR Announces SiRFstudioTM Client LoCoMo API – Powerful, Flexible Location ...
20.05.12
LoCoMo API innovations are based on the concept of “Locomotion” allowing
the differentiation between different modes of physical movement, such
as walking and running. These capabilities can be used to distinguish
applications in a number of categories, such as gaming and physical
fitness. The LoCoMo API Software Developer Kit (SDK) comes with a
fitness applet called “GoRun” developed by CSR to illustrate LoCoMo API
capabilities.
“CSR sees a strong desire on the part of application developers to
bridge the physical and virtual worlds,” said Ashu Pande, General
Manager and Managing Director, Infrastructure and Services Business Unit
(ISBU) of CSR. “Developers of games increasingly demand a means of
incentivising physical activity with virtual rewards, and fitness
application developers would like applications that can sense motion and
classify and quantify physical activity throughout the day -- not just
during exercise routines.”
