Do you live in a world of information, characterized by speed and abundance?
Are you always on the go and you don't have time to follow all the received information?
The Companion is the perfect solution for you! Just one click, and he will adapt to all your preferences, offering relevant news on subjects of your interest, not only from the internet, but also from friends.
Besides important events, the companion will also trace the shortest way to get there. He will also calculate the aproximate time in which you could reach your destination by car, or on foot, depending on your personality (jovial, lazy, night-bird).
He keeps track of your agenda, checks your current location in the world and makes suggestions that fit in your schedule.
For future development, we would include the safety feature, enabling the companion to call 911 in case of an emergency like a car accident etc.
Server-side and client-side applications.
Role: Java implementation of the communication elements from the visual module.
