Project Outline
Code Name: PriFlex SMART
Challenge:
To develop a bluetooth-enabled mobile card reader and printer with paper cut function along with Apple MFI certification, an SDK for Android and iOS, documentation, and packaging.
Skills Required:
Xcode/ObjC (iOS), Java (Android), Adobe Photoshop, Microsoft Office, ATS, Japanese
Details
In a collaborative effort with companies in Japan and Korea, we developed a new bluetooth mobile printer and 3 track card reader using a previous design as a road map.
I worked with the engineers in Korea to make sure the firmware was complaint with Apple MFi specifications, and developed/submitted all documentation and hardware required for certification.
The project also involved my creating an SDK (localized in English, Japanese, and Korean) for Android and iOS to allow 3rd party developers (i.e., PayPal, Mitsubishi, JR East Railway) to interact and OEM the PriFlex SMART hardware.
In addition, I did all package design, created various brochures/marketing materials, and produced user manuals in English and Japanese.
