LinkControl is an automation application that can be used to control lights, dimmers, motors and other physical devices. This application is essentially a button processing application that needs to be paired with a server component that ultimately controls the physical devices. This application downloads button definitions from the server application and when a button is pressed a button identifier is returned to the server indicating which button was pressed. With that information the server decides the appropriate next step. LinkControl has no knowledge of the overall process as it just handles button definitions and button presses.

Welcome to the MyPath project. We aim to build an accessible routing and navigation system for wheelchair users to get to their destination from any source location. We achieve this by identifying surface types from user-collected vibrational patterns and subsequently use the surface type and incline information to generate end-to-end personalized accessible routes.
