The "Be My Super Alarm Clock" project was designed to transform the use of an alarm clock in everyday life. Primarily aimed at making the wake-up moment stronger, the application is targeted towards individuals who may find it difficult to get up in the morning. Either because they waste time on multiple alarm repetitions, or because the alarm isn't even heard.
The application can also be used for daily event reminders, ensuring that users never miss important appointments or tasks. This is the essence of "Be My Super Alarm Clock" – a "super" alarm that requires a unique action to stop the ringing.
Traditionally, an alarm clock rings at a set time and stops with the press of a button. "Be My Super Alarm Clock" goes beyond this and completely changes how the alarm is silenced. Selecting a wake-up sound requires users to perform a unique action to stop the ringing.
Context
The "Be My Super Alarm Clock" alarm application allows users to select a unique wake-up method. From a list of choices provided by the application, users select a wake-up method. The application then uses a unique and evolving alarm tone. "Be My Super Alarm Clock" goes even further, as the way to stop the alarm is unique depending on the chosen tone. This could involve performing a specific action with one's voice, a precise movement of the phone, or even applauding if the user selects the alarm set to Stand Up mode. In this last example, the alarm will play a tone featuring someone performing a Stand Up routine. The voice delivers jokes of questionable taste, and the user must physically applaud to silence the alarm.
TECHNOLOGIES
The application is feasible with current technology. Developing a mobile application for this concept is necessary. Initializing a different alarm tone based on the selection is straightforward. However, "Be My Super Alarm Clock" requires greater expertise in development to implement the various ways of stopping the alarm. Specifically, it requires the ability to develop movements on the X, Y, and Z axes. Additionally, the application needs to analyze the sound produced by the user to determine if the alarm stop sound has been executed correctly. Moreover, it is vital to have a smartphone capable of listening and analyzing sound, as well as detecting touch, gestures, and movements on the X, Y, and Z axes.
