Description

AIRS is the most comprehensive lifelogging platform for Android, recording a large variety of phone-internal and attached physiological sensors, such as the Zephyr HxM pulse monitor. Recording such data can serve many purposes, e.g. monitoring your physical activity or memorising your latest holiday (check out http://www.tecvis.co.uk for examples).

You can enjoy your local recordings directly on your mobile with our Storica application (http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.storica), processing and visualising the information as engaging digital stories, maps with flyover effects and a context-enriched media gallery.

THIS SOFTWARE IS NO SPYWARE!! You ARE under full control over any data that is gathered!

In local mode, data is stored in a secure SQlite database, while the remote mode connects to your own Windows-based application server. You can download the server from http://sourceforge/projects/nors.

To simplify configuration, AIRS supports templates. You only need to configure once, save the settings as a template and start it from a launcher screen shortcut. You can have different shortcuts for different settings, easily switching recording scenarios! AIRS is battery-optimised, allowing for recording all day, and you can optimise battery consumption through the configuration!

You can find an online manual at http://tecvis.co.uk/software-2/airs/, providing a list of sensors, making permissions more obvious. If you have doubts about any permission, please send us an email instead of rating down or commenting badly - AIRS is NOT a spy-tool!!

The AIRS source code is available at https://github.com/dirktrossen/AIRS where you can inspect how we obtain the data. We also provide developer information at http://tecvis.co.uk/software/airs/developer-information.

A special thanks goes to Dana Pavel (http://dalore.me.uk/Dana/research-areas). She provided invaluable input into major design decisions and included her Java-based desktop software into the AIRS Github distribution. This software parses AIRS text files and inserts the values into a MySQL database on your desktop. With this, you can implement own visualizations!

5 ★ Does what it says and all is right! Love it!!!

5 ★ What I like about this app is the amount of opportunities for sensing and organising information that it provides. Well engineered and well supported.

5 ★ That's a cool application that unifies the reading of sensor values. You can enable or disable any sensor data and adjust all available parameters. No data leave the device!

5 ★ I've been using this platform for my research project and it is very stable. The data recorded provides a lot of information about daily activities.
