Title: EKEN M002 as orbiter
Post by: daballiemo on July 26, 2010, 04:33:26 pm
Hi all,

still looking for a very cheap gadget I can use as a orbiter. The Eken is a 7" touchscreen computer with Google Android 1.6.

Wil it be able to run the weborbiter or even Touch Orbiter in time?

I like 'm because you can get them already for $100,- online  ;D.

Yes... as Johannes suggests above try Web Orbiter 2.0...which should work fine (check the WebOrbiter 2.0 Wiki page for the latest hardware/browsers that forum members have tested Web Orbiter on; http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/Web_Orbiter_2.0 (http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/Web_Orbiter_2.0))

Alternatively take a look at Touch Orbiter which is the app equivalent of Web Orbiter 2.0 - we provide full source code to a reference implementation for WinCE which can be easily used as a basis to create a version for Android... or any other OS/device in fact; http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/Touch_Orbiter_-_for_the_CUWIN3500_in-wall_Touch_Panel (http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/Touch_Orbiter_-_for_the_CUWIN3500_in-wall_Touch_Panel)

All the best

Hi,

a wall mount kit for the EKEN M002 would be great... ;)

also somebody could test SIPdroid on it and make it a LinuxMCE phone as well as an orbiter.

Did you add the a new 'Generic SIP softphone' from the Phones menu in Web Admin first?

Then in the SIPDROID Account settings page on your Eken M003 add the following:

Username: what ever LinuxMCE assigned as the Extension for the new Generic SIP softphone
Password: again, what ever LinuxMCE assigned as the Extension for the new Generic SIP softphone
Server: the IP address of your core 192.168.80.1 by default
Port:  Leave this as the default, it may need to be 5060 or 0, not sure.

I don't have a SIPDroid extension set up but I have a SJphone setup on my Win CE orbiter. So this is a bit blind but based on the settings I have on my device

Lets spin out any discussion on SIPdroid into its own thread...it just makes finding relevant information simpler for people who find this thread later.

We'll it arrived the day before yesterday, took some fiddling but boy I should have done this years ago ;-)

One word: FANTASTIC  ;D ;D ;D ;D

For a bit over $100 from 1 to 9 on the WAF.

Have a look at the wiki page I created: http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/Eken_m002 (http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/Eken_m002)

Nice, lets have a pic or vid or the device in action!!

Techstyle,

I have made my first Youtube movie ever, so do not laugh  ::)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eA0SaYYQb7E (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eA0SaYYQb7E)

Sound is horrible, so you better switch it off, but its the idea that counts, right?

Hi Han,

Your video is perfectly fine and does a very good job of demonstrating the snappy performance of the Web Orbiter running on M002. A reference to this video in the Web Orbiter 2.0 wiki page would be good...also a still pic of the M002 running the Web Orbiter to add to the gallery of images on that page would cool to.

Thanks for your efforts on this.

All the best

Andrew

NP, I think seeing the money even though the quality is not superb I will order 2 more in a couple of weeks. Hopefully somebody with Android knowlegde will write an orbiter app to make things complete.

Well you might want to look at the Touch Orbiter wiki page... http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/Touch_Orbiter_-_for_the_CUWIN3500_in-wall_Touch_Panel (http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/Touch_Orbiter_-_for_the_CUWIN3500_in-wall_Touch_Panel). We have someone working on a port of this code to iPhone/iPod touch/iPad... maybe you could try a port to Android :-)

Both Web Orbiter and Touch Orbiter are based on the same basic architecture... the UI device runs a 'thin' app that is simple to implement and the 'heavy lifting' is done at the Core by the proxy_orbiter. In the case of Web Orbiter 2.0 the 'thin' client side app is written in Javascript and hosted by a Web Browser and in Touch Orbiter the 'thin' client side app is written in C++ and does not need a web browser. In both cases an instance of proxy_orbiter is running on the Core abstracting all of the complexity of the Orbiter from the development needed on the target device.

Give it a try ;-)


All the best

I will have a look at Android, but programming is not really my game. I have see the CU3500 but still it is about 3 times the price of this piece of equipment, though this can't be wall fitted unless doing a bit of work.

Sure... I was not suggesting the CUWIN3500 is a device you should look at... but the reference implementation source code is there to inspire others here in the forum to use it as a basis to build version for other devices... like M002 ;-)
