III EXISTING SYSTEM

There are some applications available in the android market

1. which requires both the user as well as host of the game to switch on their GPS at the every opening of the

   application. But our application aims to register their 4 preferred locations and save it in their database.

   IV ARCHITECTURE OF THE SYSTEM

   Initially, application begins with the login and signup page followed by application logo. Signup page contains necessary queries which later is used as filters for confine selection of the companions or players who suitable for his/her profile. Once a user is signed in, his details are stored in respective database. Later he/she can login through the application by mail-id and password. Main activity, [1] this page consists of an location bar consisting of GPS button. User can select his/her current location either by GPS or by selecting an area.

   By selecting the location, a player can confine his/her willingness to play in surrounding or nearby location. A button is provided next to location bar which contains the options such as settings, profile, logout and news feed. News feed option contains news of the sports which the user specified during signing in. Host button is followed by location bar. Posts of other games or posts of player area of interest are displayed below the host button. A player can select and join already hosted game by viewing posts or player can host a game by selecting the host button.

   Host activity, again consists of confinements such as max players selector form, time, date, name of the game and a button. Once hosting is done, a chat box is created making the host as admin and notifications are sent to the users or players who are situated surrounding (certain radius) the admin. Figure 4.1 shows the notifications and hosting of the game process.

   Based on the max player limit, server allows players who are willing to play to get into the group. Chat box provides a platform to discuss and by mutual understanding set a new time. New time can be set by polling, i.e. on top of the chat box a counter is provided for agreeing and disagreeing the time. If the time is changed, another push notification is sent to all the players in that group.

   Once if the players are familiar to each other, with the permission of other players one can create a permanent group. If the game selected by a group is an team game, then the admin can select another similar sport group and play against them.

   Features of chat engine:

   • Players can customize their notifications.

   • Player can hide or reveal their contact information if they wish.

   • A player can view other players profile.

   • Players individually can leave the group.

   • If the admin exits from the group before the time specified, the adminship is randomly given to another player.

   • Numbers of emoticons are restricted to avoid spam pings.

   • At the end of the specified date, the group is automatically killed.

V CONCLUSION
