Tiivistelmä
This Bachelor’s thesis is following development of a kiosk launcher for Android operating system. The purpose of this thesis was to create an Android program that would answer the requirements of the commissioning company.
The commissioning company, Pointer Group Oy, is a small local business in Turku that provides feedback-gathering services in Finland for other companies. The Launcher is used in a questionnaire device in public places such as banks and restaurants to collect user feedback on the products and services offered by the companies that ordered the device. The application provides the environment for the questionnaire website to run on the device and restricts access to general and network settings for the user. At the same time, the authorized users have the freedom to modify the configuration of the device.
Tools that were used in the project are Android SDK and the Java programming language, the integrated development environment Eclipse and Android studio.
The resulting program was approved by the company and used in their business although some of the requirements had to be dropped due to time limitations and technical reasons, for instance, the audio and video playback. The requirements that had to be dropped due to the time limit are scheduled to be added in the future updates.
