Experience

HubSpot Mobile App

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hubspot.android

A mobile version of the HubSpot product (inbound marketing and sales software).

iBeacon-enabled Mobile App

I developed an iBeacon-enabled mobile application that pushes notifications about deals and special offers available at the given point of sale to a user. The alerts are triggered when the user steps into an iBeacon zone. Additionally, a web-based dashboard and administration console was created to allow a dedicated user to manage content, iBeacons, application themes (e.g., colors, logos for the app distribution purposes), deals, as well as to view statistics and reports.

Technologies: Java, iBeacon

Sport Video Timer App

Android video stopwatch application. The application takes slow-mo video (up to 120 fps) and disassembles it into frames. The user chooses frames of motion start/end. Based on this information app calculates high-precise time of motion. When assembling the video anew, the timer with accurate time is overlayed on each frame of the video.

Technologies: Java, C, FFmpeg

Comics Engine

A comics engine with parallax scrolling feature. Comics scenes are stored in a special data format. Instead of plain pictures, there used several Z-layers for every scene, so that creates a pretty looking "parallax" effect and new experience for the user. All textures are loaded in a separate GL context, so it provides seamless texture loading/unloading.

Technologies: Java, LibGDX, OpenGL

DLNA Library and Apps

Adapted a customer DLNA library written in C to an Android library using JNI. Worked on several digital media management/sharing apps based on this library for storing (DMS in DLNA terminology), playing (DMR), and controlling (DMC). Everything can be played on everything using any device as a remote controller.

Technologies: Java, C, DLNA, and AIDL.

Worked on a crossplatform zuma-like game based on cocos2d-x engine. Worked on a framework that allows customer to customize the game flexibly without recompiling source-code. Developed Android-dependent parts like the sound engine and social network integrations.
