ShakeToCompress is a Mobile App for Nokia Maemo. which enables you to compress a directory in your mobile phone only by shaking your mobile several times.
Instructions:-
To Compress |
- To Compress
- Put your mobile in an upward Vertical Position.
- Choose a Directory.
- Shake your mobile with an angle several times like shaking a bottle.
to Decompress |
- To Decompress
- Flip Your Mobile making it face downwards.
- Choose a Compressed Direcotry
- Shake your mobile upside down, like you are trying to make a bottle empty
- The idea is relly simple, There is a Thread Running in the background that listens to the frequency of the change in the accelerometer values. and if the rate of the change is up to a certain threshold the compression thread fires up. =) The Idea is Inspired by the Bar Guyz who shake the drinkes bottles in an artitistic way :D :D I don't go to bars btw :D i just see them in movies :D

Compatability:-
- This version Only works on Maemo Nokia N900
- I will provide an Andriod Version soon but this was only because i wanted to implement it in C++ and explore Maemo :)
- I also made a Windows Gadget that compress directories By dragging them into the dropable area. but this was just for the delivery of the assignment. the thing that I'm proud of doing is this Mobile App :)
