In reality, the vibration of the Haptic Jacket will be provided by the modules shown above. However, where the modules are **not available physically**, an android app has been designed for testing purposes.

This app acts as a fake module and tests whether the UDP packets can be received from the Controller Appliation on the computer or not.

## Setting Up and Running

Download the Android app [f](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1c3SjEGMCM6_uIJoY_0nN4Bp5_DNB5J8y/view?usp=sharing)rom <https://drive.google.com/file/d/1c3SjEGMCM6_uIJoY_0nN4Bp5_DNB5J8y/view?usp=sharing>

Once activated, the Android phone will act as a fake module.

An IP and port will be assigned to the phone, and the app will listen for the UDP messages.

In the Haptic Jacket Controller Application on Computer, edit the configuration to match the IP and ports in Android App.

Then, hover over the available modules. The Android Phone should receive the UDP packets, display the messages received and vibrate.
