eZ430 Development Tool Overview Slide 16

Earlier in this presentation a GUI was shown which plotted out the accelerometer data. The way that Control Center operated was by taking data from the RF access point to open a COM port, which is running over USB. It opens these at known rates and decoded the packet and split it. The user is not required to use the Control Center. They can take that same data over the COM port or the serial port and display it in the application they would like to use. The community has developed several APIs to transfer data to and from the watch that does not use the DLLs that were provided out-of-the-box. Examples include interfaces that have been written in Python, Processing, Ruby and .net to communicate with the Chronos. Additionally, since these are community developed and supported, users can take that code and modify it and re-upload it back to the web for other users.
