A Synchronized Scheduler/Reminder Application for Philips 2KTV with Joint SPACE Platform

JointSPACE is an Open Source project that allows every user/supplier to develop applications for Philips TV displays. JointSPACE is based on the SPACE architecture which was developed by Philips to ease internal development. At some point of time, Philips decided to open its architecture to allow users or anyone to develop code for the TV target. In this paper an application developed is developed based on the JointSPACE platform. The idea is to synchronize the Reminders stored on the mobile phone or any wireless device to the TV. The reason for the development of this application is majority of the people watching the Television tend to forget their schedules while watching Television. Since remote wireless devices like mobile phones and laptops are most common these days, people normally have their schedules stored in these devices. So as a solution for the above mentioned issue, we propose a synchronizer for Scheduler application for the Television that will work with a remote wireless device.
