An android app aimed at promoting environment protection by recording and analyzing carbon footprint.
Every person will generate carbon dioxide and greenhouse gases in their life every day. A carbon footprint is the total amount of greenhouse gases that are generated by our actions. Because of global warming, it is emergent for humans to lead a low carbon life. footMemory application is developed as a simple tool for everyone to calculate, record, and analyze their carbon footprint. In this way, users can find how to lower their carbon footprint every day systematically.
The app is achieved by Java, Sqlite and Android Studio. I built this project based on Android 24, but other apis should also work.
First, clone the project into your device
git clone https://github.com/z1514/footMemory.git
Then use Android Studio to load the project and build it. The Android Studio will build it automatically using gradle.
- Search for footprint for specific activities.
- Record daily carbon footprint.
- Calculate total footprint everyday.
- Show historical footprint.
- Display visualization charts for recent carbon footprint based on day, week and month.
- Set up Android Environment.
- Set up Android VM.
- Build main Activity to manage all of the states.
- Integrate SQLite as a mobile app database.
- Design data model for footprint.
- Implement footprint unit query list in the app.
- Implement calculator of carbon footprint.
- Develop history activity and Java logic to show historical data.
- Integrate MPCharts to visulize historical data for users to show their improvement.
