Air Waves (Lite) Details

♪ What does it do? Air Waves is a "one to many" local radio broadcasting service which could be used for many things such as live translations for an audience, a baby monitor or a 2-way intercom/walkie-talkie. Prior to creating this app, we had looked into alternatives. The translation system we needed for Ecclesia Mission Hills church (translation service) was almost $8,000. That included only a transmitting station, microphones and 4 headset devices. With Air Waves, we paid (in $AUD): • wireless N150 router ($60) • $120 for x2 cheap Android phones to test our setup with • $20 for x2 in-ear Sony headphones • $0 to bring your own additional listening device So for $200 we've provided the same service which an $8,000 system would have, except Air Waves is easier to set up and far cheaper if we need more headsets. ♪ How to use it? It doesn't get much simpler than this! • Broadcaster: Click on the microphone to start broadcasting immediately. • Listener: Simply click on the headphone icon and choose the channel (or language) you want. Note: all devices need to be on the same WiFi network. ♪ Advanced usage • Press menu to set your device name • Press menu to enable/disable audio playback via headset (for speaker) ♪ Hardware required • At least 2 Android 4.1+ devices • A router with wireless capabilities (preferably at least N standard) • (optional) Some headphones and/or microphone for better audio quality ♪ Notes I've only tested on a handful of phones, simply because I can't afford to buy every phone in the market. Below are the phones I've personally tested and works with Air Waves: • HTC Droid Incredible 2 • HTC One X • Nexus 4 • Samsung i9000 / S2 / S3 / Note 2 / S 3 Mini / S4 • Sony Xperia X10 mini / Z1 / Z3 / Z5 • Xiaomi Mi 2S • ZTE T12 / Telstra Uno ♪ Some additional advice • Lite version can only broadcast for 2mins. You can get the full version here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=twig.nguyen.airwaves.pro • Both broadcaster and audience must be on the SAME wireless network. • Each listener will use approximately 20Kbps, so please ensure your broadcasting device can handle the given number of listeners. See below for a detailed breakdown. • There is noticeably less audio latency on Android +4.1 devices as Google has fixed up some audio processing issues and again in Android 6 • If you use a hands free microphone, the microphone used will affect recording quality. (Garbage in = garbage out) • Each broadcasting device has different methods of noise cancellation. Pick the one which works best for you. ♪ Some features on wishlist • automatically reconnect to server • use non-blocking IO ♪ Contact If you have any problems, EMAIL ME!
