Abstract

For the implementation of multimedia applications on mobile devices several platforms exist. Getting started with mobile programming can be difficult and tricky. This paper gives an introduction to the development of mobile multimedia applications on Symbian OS devices. In particular this paper presents the step-by-step development of an easy image processing application that makes use of the mobile device's camera. Here, a Nokia N95 phone is used, which is widely used in the community due to its features such as autofocus, GPS, wireless LAN, gravity sensors and more. This paper will provide background knowledge as well as step-by-step explanations of all implementation steps ranging from installation of an appropriate SDK to signing, installing, and running the developed application on a mobile device.
