Custom Palm Software Development

Need a custom solution for your Palm?

Many developers check claim they can do everything. Well, we don't. We are a small company, we know what we do well, and what we don't do.

If you need a Palm application built, we are your source. If you need a partner that will focus on your application idea, we are your partner. If you need an application built fast, give us a shot.

We have built a RAD IDE environment in Windows that allows us to rapidly prototype your application, and then generate ANSI C++ source code that can be customized and extended to meet the demands of your application. We have a very robust class library that all our projects are built upon, and we have built several applications that qualify for Palm's Platinum certification.

Praise for our Team

Here is some recent praise that our team has received for completed work. We have an extensive list of references and will be happy to have you contact any or all of them. They will be able to affirm the quality of our work and professionalism of our team.

"Ted single-handedly pulled this application out of the mud, brushed it off, and turned it into gold. He provided an enduring contribution that will last long after he stoped working on it. Ted was particularly adept at fundamentally sound design that facilitated maintenance and stable development."
- Alan Ying, M.D., President, Mercury MD, Inc.
"Ted is the most progressive programmer for the Palm platform in the world today. His ability to rapidly assimilate design parameters coupled with a pragmatic approach to object-oriented Palm programming allowed us to take a product from concept to rock-solid reality faster than we thought possible."
- William Lawson, M.D., CTO, Mercury MD, Inc.
"When our previous palm developers were unable to deliver the quality solution we needed, we turned to eLowery.net for our Palm development needs. They delivered a quality solution, on-time and on-budget. All of our future Palm development efforts will rely on eLowery.net staff."
- Don Rich, Owner, Acorn Solutions

Solutions

Here are some sample screen shots for some of our previous work. In order to respect the intellectual property of our clients, we can't really discuss in detail the intent of these applications. But we will be happy to discuss your specific needs and design a solution that fits your requirements and budget.

Thalimedes

This application connects via infrared to a remote water level sensing device, and allows the user to configure the data capture attributes of the sensor, or download collected data. This data can then be transferred to a PC for further processing.

MData

MData is an application that presents medical information regarding hospital patients. This application displays data collected from various hospital databases. Data is collected nightly and delivered via infrared hotsync to the physicians at the beginning of rounds. Then the physician can review the previous days data while rounding on patients, making additional chart notes and ordering other tests.

Application has over 30 forms, displays data from nearly 1MB of database records, and runs in color and grayscale on PalmOS 3.5 or higher device. It displays patient lists (filtered by team), basic patient data, vital statistics, meds ordered, billing and procedure codes, and graphic images for 15 types of ordered tests.

Dynamic Information Transfer

This application collects GPS location data for emergency vehicles (police, ambulance and fire), transmits that data to a central server over a wireless link, and receive status information from the server, which is displayed to the user. This communication can happen on demand, or at a specified interval. The ETA of the vehicle is then calculated and displayed for the user.

We also built a generic XML parser for this application. It can send and receive XML messages to/from any IP address.

The target hardware for this program includes: Palm VII or VIIx and Rand McNally GPS for Palm VII.

	This is the main DiT screen. It shows the current status of the GPS, in this case it is locked and received the last valid lock at 9:20am on 12/8. You can send the current location to the server on demand with the “Send Lat&Lon” button, or can be done continuously by selecting the check box. The field allows you to enter the time delay in seconds for each send. The five fields at the bottom show you the information returned from the server upon a completed send.
	This screen shows the information last received from the GPS. The arrow in the upper right always takes you back to the screen you came from. The Palm Date is the date this info was received as recorded by the palm. The GPS Date is the date string sent from the GPS. The checkbox at the bottom shows whether the GPS is currently sending locked info. This screen updates automatically each time it receives new GPS information.
	This screen allows testing of http requests to the server. Enter the http request, hit “Do It”, and the info received will be displayed.
