Hotspot Trigger on Tizen

This project was started to make some features on Tizen at the graduate class. So the code is not well written(we made it for 1~2 days without background), but we had focused on making new feature.

Inspired by the functionality in IOS of Apple, we made Hotspot Trigger.

Under IOS, the devices without cellular network such as IPAD could make the cellular devices turn its own hotspot functionality through bluetooth communication.

Due to this functionality (I call it “Remote Hotspot Trigger”, for convenience), user can use IPAD online without cellular network and without doing any bothersome stuffs such as turning on hotspot & wi-fi on the mobile phone and connect to the phone’s network on IPAD.

I and my friend implemented the functionality on the Android and Tizen mobile devices: Android phone & Tizen Odroid XU3(?) device

Demo is here

The source codes are here for server and clients.
