Radar IM

Radar Instant Messenger

Radar IM is a multi-platform messenger combining device features such as location based services and multi media device features used with buddies and buddy-robots as well.

A “buddy-robot” is an application which can be added to a given users buddy list providing a specific service to the user.

Robots can be weather or RSS serices sending IMs in a predefined interval containing news or the current weather conditions or image push services to WiFi enabled Photo frames, where the users simply sends an image to a robot which then sends this image to the picture frame. More robots can be implemented and added as OSGi bundles.

A system overview is shown in the image below:
