This section describes the OSGi bundles used in the Aspire middleware.

1.1 Source repository
* [Source repository>http://websvn.ow2.org/listing.php?repname=aspire&path=%2Ftrunk%2Fbundles%2F]

1.1 OBR
The artifact will be available soon through an [OBR index>http://www.osgi.org/download/rfc-0112_BundleRepository.pdf] mapped on a Maven repository.

1.1 General Purpose
* [Bluetooth Server>Main.Documentation.Bundles.BluetoothServer]
* [RXTX>Main.Documentation.Bundles.RXTX]
* [LibUSBJava>Main.Documentation.Bundles.LibUSBJava]
* [Phidget library>Main.Documentation.Bundles.PhidgetLib]

1.1 Readers

1.1.1 Libraries
The bundles for readers package only implementation classes imported by the ALEServer barfile (bundle+war) deployed on the OSGi platform.
* [ProximaRF Desktop USB reader>Main.Documentation.Bundles.ProximaRFDesktopReader]
* [TagSys Medio Serial reader>Main.Documentation.Bundles.TagSysMedioReader]
* [ACR 122 USB reader>Main.Documentation.Bundles.ACR122Reader]
* [OneWire reader>Main.Documentation.Bundles.OneWireReader]
* [Phidget RFID Reader>Main.Documentation.Bundles.PhidgetReader]

1.1.1 Bundles with HALAdaptor services
The bundles package services that are automatically added and removed to the ALEServer' LRSpec list

1.1.1 UPnP RFID Readers
* [UPnP RFID Reader (based on ACR122U>Main.Documentation.Bundles.UPnPRFIDReader]

1.1 Sensors
1.1.1 Data exchanges
Data sent by the sensors to the ALEServer are:
* [org.osgi.util.measurement.Measurement>http://www.osgi.org/javadoc/r4v42/org/osgi/util/measurement/Measurement.html]
* [org.osgi.util.measurement.State>http://www.osgi.org/javadoc/r4v42/org/osgi/util/measurement/State.html]
* [org.osgi.util.position.Position>http://www.osgi.org/javadoc/r4v42/org/osgi/util/position/Position.html]
* [java.awt.Image>http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/awt/Image.html]
* [javax.imageio.IIOImage>http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/javax/imageio/IIOImage.html]
* java.lang.Double
* java.lang.Float
* java.lang.Long
* java.lang.Integer

Data values must be represented in units defined by the [International System of Units>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_System_of_Units] (such as the [org.osgi.util.measurement.Unit>http://www.osgi.org/javadoc/r4v42/org/osgi/util/measurement/Unit.html]).

Sensors data types are named ~~[flavors>http://www.osgi.org/javadoc/r4v42/org/osgi/service/wireadmin/WireConstants.html#WIREADMIN_PRODUCER_FLAVORS]~~ in the WireAdmin terminology.

Other data types could be
* Location API for J2ME (JSR 179) ( http://www.jcp.org/en/jsr/detail?id=179)
* Java Distributed Data Acquisition and Control API (JDDAC) ( https://jddac.dev.java.net)

1.1.1 Sensors properties
Sensors and data properties qualify the Producer services and Event properties used in the Aspire components.
* application.name
* value.unit
* ...

[UPnP constants>http://www.osgi.org/javadoc/r4v42/org/osgi/service/upnp/UPnPDevice.html] can be used also.

1.1.1 OSGi WireAdmin based sensors
The sensors are developed according the OSGi [WireAdmin>http://www.osgi.org/javadoc/r4v42/org/osgi/service/wireadmin/package-summary.html] specification.
The bundles for sensors package Producer services. Those service are automatically wired to the Consumer service of the ALEServer barfile.
* [OneWire>Main.Documentation.Bundles.OneWireProducer]
* [TEMPer>Main.Documentation.Bundles.TEMerProducer]
* [Oregon WMR 200 weather station>Main.Documentation.Bundles.WMR200WeatherStation]
* [LaCrosse WS 2300 weather station>Main.Documentation.Bundles.WS2300WeatherStation]
* Sunspot
* Wiimote
* [NMEA GPS>Main.Documentation.Bundles.NMEAGPS]
* USB WebCam using JMF
* USB WebCam unig QT
* [USB Multimeter Velleman DVM 1200>Main.Documentation.Bundles.MultimeterDVM1200]

1.1.1 OSGi EventAdmin based sensors
The sensors are developed according the OSGi [EventAdmin>http://www.osgi.org/javadoc/r4v42/org/osgi/service/event/package-summary.html] specification. They send/post events containing measures to the ALEServer' topic <code>org/ow2/aspirerfid/aleserver/sensedata</code>.
The Event properties are :

1.1.1 OSGi MonitorAdmin based sensors
The sensors are developed according the OSGi [MonitorAdmin>http://www.osgi.org/javadoc/r4v42/org/osgi/service/monitor/package-summary.html] specification.

1.1.1 OSGi UPnP Base Driver based sensors
The sensors are developed according the OSGi [UPnP Base Driver>http://www.osgi.org/javadoc/r4v42/org/osgi/service/upnp/package-summary.html] specification.

1.1 Actuators
* [iBuddy>Main.Documentation.Bundles.iBuddy]
* [Rocket launcher>Main.Documentation.Bundles.RocketLauncher]
* [Velleman K8090 USB 8 relays>Main.Documentation.Bundles.K8090]
