Problem Statement

• Alzheimers disease and dementia currently affect
  a large and growing segment of the population.
• Most people who are initially diagnosed with
  these conditions cannot be immediately placed in
  a care facility.
• They cannot live on their own a close family
  member typically stays in close contact in order
  to take care of them.
• This situation can become extremely stressful for
  both the caregiver and the cared-for due to the
  constant presence required to ensure the safety
  of the cared-for person.
• The proposed solution includes an easy to use
  communication system that will help both the
  patient and caregiver to communicate with each
  other.
• They can communicate via voice, video and text.

Coding Details for Display UnitShariq Tehsin
30
Display Device Software

• The display device software uses the Skype API
• The Skype API passes commands in simple text
  messages between Skype and client applications
  and devices
• The Skype API has two main components the Skype
  phone API and the Skype access API.
• The display device software uses the Skype access
  API.

31
Skype Access API

• The Skype access API enables external
  applications to control certain Skype functions,
• For example to place a call

32
Characteristics of Skype API

• All actions performed using the API are mirrored
  on the Skype client
• All times and dates in the API are in UTC
  (Coordinated Universal Time)
• Multiple applications can use the Skype access
  API at the same time.
• Transmission over the API is in UTF-8 encoding.

33
Initialization

• Use the RegisterWindowMessage method to register
• To initiate communication, a client application
  broadcasts the SkypeControlAPIDiscover message
• Skype responds with a SkypeControlAPIAttach
  message

34
Communication between Skype and Client program

• The client application issues a command to
  control Skype
• In reply to some commands, Skype returns a
  synchronous response
• Skype objects are application, call, chat, chat
  message, profile, user, and voicemail.

35
Commands

• CALL command (Use the CALL command to make a
  call)
• Set CALL INPROGRESS command (Use the SET CALL
  INPROGRESS command to take an incoming call)
• SET CALL FINISHED command (Use the SET CALL
  FINISHED command to end a call)
• SET CALL ONHOLD command (Use the SET CALL ONHOLD
  command to place a call on hold)

36
Message Receive Code

• The display device software uses the sockets to
  receive the text message
