Abstract

Cross-platform application development is a rapidly increasing area of research. SoundBoom is a mobile application created using innovative cross-platform development techniques. SoundBoom provides a unique ability to create a custom soundboard on a device, utilising the device capabilities such as the camera and microphone. Subsequently, the soundboard assets can be uploaded to the cloud. These assets can populate the SoundBoom app on another device, potentially on a different platform, via the cloud using web services. This population of a native app with dynamic content from the cloud is the first step towards on-device application creation.
