% Abstract
\chapter*{Abstract}
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{Abstract}
WalkGuide is an AI-powered mobile navigation system designed to assist visually impaired individuals in safely traversing their environment. The system comprises a Flutter mobile application and a Spring Boot RESTful backend, connected in real-time through WebSocket (STOMP) and Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM). The mobile application runs YOLOv8n object detection entirely on-device using TensorFlow Lite, providing obstacle alerts through Text-to-Speech and haptic feedback without requiring an internet connection for core navigation.
The backend, deployed on a university PostgreSQL server, exposes 26 versioned REST endpoints secured with JWT access and refresh tokens and role-based access control (RBAC) for two distinct user roles: \textit{User} (visually impaired individual) and \textit{Guardian} (caregiver or companion). Guardians can monitor the User's real-time location on an interactive map, configure AI detection parameters, send text or voice-note notifications, set up geofence boundaries, and initiate VoIP audio calls via Agora RTC. An SOS alert system allows Users to instantly notify their Guardian with a single voice command or hardware button press.
The system implements seven Gang-of-Four (GoF) design patterns spanning all three categories --- Creational, Structural, and Behavioral --- across both the Flutter and Spring Boot codebases. The backend is tested with JUnit 5, Mockito, MockMvc, and Testcontainers, achieving above 70\% JaCoCo line coverage. Load testing was conducted using k6 with up to 30 virtual users. The Flutter application follows Clean Architecture principles with BLoC/Cubit state management and is benchmarked on a physical Android device in profile mode.
\textbf{Keywords:} Flutter, Spring Boot, YOLOv8, TensorFlow Lite, Obstacle Detection, Text-to-Speech, Visually Impaired, WebSocket, JWT, Clean Architecture, BLoC, GoF Design Patterns.

\chapter{Introduction}
% ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
\section{Problem Background}
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), over 2.2 billion people worldwide live with a visual impairment, of which at least 1 billion have conditions that could have been prevented or are yet to be addressed. For individuals with complete or severe visual impairment, navigating public spaces poses significant risks: unexpected obstacles such as vehicles, pedestrians, street furniture, and road hazards create daily challenges that can result in injury.
Traditional mobility aids such as the white cane and guide dogs provide partial assistance but offer no real-time digital awareness or remote monitoring capabilities. Existing mobile applications for the visually impaired tend to focus on text recognition or turn-by-turn navigation without addressing real-time obstacle detection or caregiver connectivity.
WalkGuide addresses this gap by combining on-device computer vision (YOLOv8n via TensorFlow Lite), real-time audio feedback (Text-to-Speech), and a connected guardian ecosystem into a single, cohesive system --- all running on consumer Android hardware without requiring dedicated or expensive specialized equipment.
\section{Objectives}
\begin{enumerate}
\item Design and implement an Android mobile application in Flutter that performs real-time obstacle detection using on-device AI inference.
\item Build a Spring Boot backend exposing a secure, versioned REST API that manages authentication, pairing, location tracking, notifications, SOS events, and AI configuration.
\item Connect the two systems in real-time using WebSocket (STOMP) for live location updates and SOS alerts, supplemented by Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) for background push notifications.
\item Apply rigorous Object-Oriented Analysis and Design (OOAD) methodology --- producing use case, class, sequence, state, ERD, and component diagrams --- before commencing development.
\item Implement at least four GoF design patterns (one per category: Creational, Structural, Behavioral) and document each with a traceability audit.
\item Demonstrate functional testing (JUnit, widget tests, integration tests) and performance benchmarking (k6 load tests, Flutter profile-mode metrics).
\end{enumerate}
\section{Target Users}
\begin{description}
\item[\textbf{User (ROLE\_USER):}] A visually impaired individual who uses the WalkGuide app as their primary navigation aid. They interact with the app primarily through voice commands and audio feedback (Text-to-Speech), with hardware button shortcuts as a fallback.
\item[\textbf{Guardian (ROLE\_GUARDIAN):}] A sighted caregiver, family member, or companion who monitors the User remotely through the Guardian dashboard. They can send messages, configure AI settings, set geofences, and initiate calls.
\end{description}
\section{Scope and Limitations}
\textbf{In scope:}
\begin{itemize}
\item Android-only Flutter mobile application (iOS not targeted in this release).
\item On-device YOLOv8n inference using TensorFlow Lite; 80 COCO object labels.
\item RESTful Spring Boot backend deployed on the university server (\code{202.46.28.160}).
\item PostgreSQL database managed through Flyway migrations (V1--V16).
\item Real-time communication via STOMP WebSocket and FCM.
\item VoIP audio calls via Agora RTC.
\end{itemize}
\textbf{Out of scope / known limitations:}
\begin{itemize}
\item iOS support: requires a separate Firebase configuration and Agora entitlements.
\item Firebase FCM backend: currently log-only until production Firebase Admin credentials are supplied.
\item Agora live call: implemented at API and service level; requires production Agora App ID and Certificate for live RTC.
\item Depth estimation via dual-camera: planned as a future enhancement.
\item AI benchmark of multiple model variants: documented in Chapter 12 (AI Benchmark Analysis).
\end{itemize}

\section{Use Case Diagram}
Figure~\ref{fig:usecase} depicts the primary actors and use cases of the WalkGuide system. The two human actors are \textit{User} (visually impaired individual) and \textit{Guardian} (caregiver). Three external system actors --- Firebase FCM, Agora RTC, and OpenStreetMap/OSRM --- are included as secondary actors to represent the external services consumed by the system.

\section{Component Diagram}
The system is composed of four major runtime components: the Flutter mobile application, the Spring Boot backend, the PostgreSQL database, and three external cloud services (Firebase FCM, Agora RTC, OpenStreetMap/OSRM). Communication channels are shown in Figure~\ref{fig:component}.

Seven GoF design patterns are implemented across the WalkGuide codebase, covering all three categories. Table~\ref{tab:patterns} provides a summary; detailed documentation follows.

\bottomrule
\end{tabularx}
\end{table}
\section{Creational: Builder Pattern}
\textbf{Location:} \filepath{walkguide-backend/demo/src/main/java/com/walkguide/entity/User.java}, \filepath{service/FcmService.java}
\textbf{Implementation:} Lombok's \code{@Builder} annotation is applied to the \code{User} entity and all response DTO classes. The Firebase \code{Message} object in \code{FcmService} is constructed using the Agora SDK's native builder.
\textbf{Justification:} The \code{User} entity has eight fields, five of which are optional (e.g., \code{displayName}, \code{uniqueUserId}, \code{fcmToken}). Using a builder prevents telescoping constructors and makes the construction intent explicit at every call site.
\begin{lstlisting}[style=javastyle, caption={Builder Pattern -- User entity construction}]
// entity/User.java
@Entity @Builder @Data @NoArgsConstructor @AllArgsConstructor
public class User {
@Id @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
private Long id;
private String email;
private String password;
private String role;
private String uniqueUserId; // optional: ROLE_USER only
private String displayName;
private String fcmToken; // optional: updated post-login
// ...
}
// Usage in AuthService.java
User newUser = User.builder()
.email(req.getEmail())
.password(encoder.encode(req.getPassword()))
.role(req.getRole())
.displayName(req.getDisplayName())
.build();
\end{lstlisting}
\section{Creational: Singleton Pattern}
\textbf{Location:} \filepath{walkguide-mobile/walkguide\_app/lib/app/injection\_container.dart}
\textbf{Implementation:} All resource-heavy services are registered as singletons in the GetIt service locator. This ensures that \code{TtsService}, \code{WebSocketService}, \code{YoloDetector}, and \code{CallService} each have exactly one instance throughout the application lifecycle.
\textbf{Justification:} The YOLO interpreter holds the entire model in memory ($\sim$6 MB). Creating multiple instances would exhaust mobile heap. The WebSocket connection must be shared across screens to avoid duplicate STOMP subscriptions.
\begin{lstlisting}[style=dartstyle, caption={Singleton Pattern -- GetIt registration}]
// injection_container.dart
void setupInjection(String baseUrl) {
getIt.registerLazySingleton<TtsService>(() => TtsService());
getIt.registerLazySingleton<YoloDetector>(() => YoloDetector());
getIt.registerLazySingleton<WebSocketService>(() => WebSocketService());
getIt.registerLazySingleton<ApiClient>(() => ApiClient(baseUrl));
// Factories for BLoCs (new instance per screen):
getIt.registerFactory<AuthBloc>(() => AuthBloc(getIt()));
}
\end{lstlisting}
\section{Structural: Facade Pattern}
\textbf{Location:} \filepath{core/services/tts\_service.dart}, \filepath{core/services/voice\_command\_handler.dart}
\textbf{Implementation:} \code{TtsService} wraps the \code{flutter\_tts} plugin behind a simple interface: \code{speak()}, \code{speakImmediate()}, \code{stop()}, and \code{setLanguage()}. Callers never interact with the raw plugin. Similarly, \code{VoiceCommandHandler} acts as a facade over STT recognition, voice command matching, BLoC event dispatching, and GoRouter navigation.
\textbf{Justification:} Without the facade, WalkGuide screen widgets would need to manage plugin lifecycle, language configuration, and queue management directly --- coupling UI code to implementation details.
\section{Structural: Repository Pattern}
\textbf{Location:} All files in \filepath{walkguide-backend/demo/src/main/java/com/walkguide/repository/}
\textbf{Implementation:} Each Spring Data JPA repository interface extends \code{JpaRepository} and defines domain-specific query methods. Services depend only on repository interfaces, never on concrete JPA or SQL APIs.
\textbf{Justification:} Applying the Repository pattern enables full Mockito mocking of the persistence layer in unit tests. Swapping PostgreSQL for another database would require changing only the repository implementations, not the service layer.
\section{Behavioral: Observer Pattern}
\textbf{Location:} \filepath{lib/app/app\_cubit.dart}, all BLoC files, \filepath{core/services/websocket\_service.dart}, \filepath{walkguide-backend/.../websocket/LocationBroadcaster.java}
\textbf{Implementation:} The BLoC/Cubit pattern is itself an implementation of Observer: the BLoC is the Subject, and all \code{BlocBuilder}/\code{BlocConsumer} widgets are Observers. On the backend, the Spring WebSocket broker pushes location, SOS, and notification updates to all subscribed Guardian clients without polling.
\section{Behavioral: Strategy Pattern}
\textbf{Location:} \filepath{core/ai/obstacle\_analyzer.dart}
\textbf{Implementation:} \code{ObstacleAnalyzer} encapsulates two independent strategies: \code{analyzeDirection()} (which divides the camera frame into thirds) and \code{estimateDistance()} (which uses bounding-box height ratio against configurable thresholds from \code{AiConfig}). Changing the Guardian's AI configuration updates the threshold values without touching the analyzer algorithm.
\section{Behavioral: Chain of Responsibility Pattern}
\textbf{Location:} \filepath{core/network/api\_client.dart} (Dio interceptors), \filepath{security/JwtAuthFilter.java}
\textbf{Implementation:} Every outgoing HTTP request passes through a chain: \textit{AuthInterceptor} (inject JWT Bearer token) $\to$ \textit{ErrorInterceptor} (normalize HTTP errors to typed \code{Failure} objects) $\to$ \textit{LogInterceptor} (development logging). On the backend, Spring Security's filter chain processes each request through \code{JwtAuthFilter} before reaching controllers.

\section{Design Deviations}
\begin{tcolorbox}[warnbox, title={Documented Design Deviations}]
\begin{enumerate}
\item \textbf{State Management (Partial BLoC):} The architecture document specifies BLoC for all screens. In implementation, several guardian dashboard screens use \code{StatefulWidget} with direct service calls for simplicity during the exam sprint. This trades architectural purity for development speed; the deviation is localized to screens that do not require complex state transitions.
\item \textbf{Offline Storage (Partial Drift):} The full architecture specifies Drift (SQLite ORM) for offline-first entity caching. The current implementation uses \code{SharedPreferences} for a lightweight offline queue (\code{offline\_queue\_service.dart}) instead of a full Drift database. The Drift dependency is present in \code{pubspec.yaml} for future extension.
\item \textbf{Backend FCM (Log-Only):} The \code{FcmService} currently logs the push notification payload instead of calling \code{FirebaseMessaging.send()}. This is an intentional deferral pending the provisioning of a production Firebase Admin credential file (\code{google-services-admin.json}).
\item \textbf{i18n (Dependency Only):} Full internationalization with \code{.arb} locale files was not completed within the exam timeline. The \code{flutter\_localizations} dependency is declared; UI strings remain in English.

\section{Flutter Clean Architecture}
The Flutter application is organized in a feature-first directory structure. Each feature module contains three sub-layers following Clean Architecture:
\begin{description}
\item[\textbf{Domain Layer}] Contains entities (pure Dart classes with no framework dependencies), abstract repository interfaces, and use cases. This layer has zero external dependencies.
\item[\textbf{Data Layer}] Contains concrete repository implementations, data source classes (remote API and local storage), and data models (JSON serialization). This layer depends on Dio, SharedPreferences, and platform services.
\item[\textbf{Presentation Layer}] Contains BLoC/Cubit classes, screen widgets, and local widget components. This layer depends only on the domain layer (via use cases) and never imports from the data layer directly.

\code{lib/shared/widgets/} & Reusable shells, navigation bars \\
\bottomrule
\end{tabularx}
\end{table}
\section{Spring Boot Layered Architecture}
The backend follows a strict three-layer architecture:
\begin{enumerate}
\item \textbf{Controller Layer:} Handles HTTP request/response, input validation (\code{@Valid}), and delegates to services. Contains no business logic.
\item \textbf{Service Layer:} Implements all business logic, orchestrates repository calls, publishes WebSocket events, and calls FCM/Agora services.
\item \textbf{Repository Layer:} Spring Data JPA interfaces. Contains only query method declarations; no SQL strings in the Java code.
\end{enumerate}
\section{Real-Time Architecture}
Two complementary mechanisms provide real-time connectivity:
\begin{description}
\item[\textbf{WebSocket (STOMP):}] Used for low-latency, high-frequency updates when both parties are online and the app is in the foreground. Topics: \code{/topic/location/\{userId\}} (live location for Guardian), \code{/queue/sos/\{guardianId\}} (SOS alerts), \code{/queue/notif/\{userId\}} (incoming notifications).
\item[\textbf{Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM):}] Used for background delivery when the app is not in the foreground, and for high-priority alerts (SOS, incoming calls). FCM payloads include a \code{type} field (\code{SOS\_ALERT}, \code{INCOMING\_CALL}, \code{NOTIFICATION}, etc.) that drives the Flutter notification handler.

\section{Key Features}
\subsection{WalkGuide --- On-Device AI Obstacle Detection}
The core feature of WalkGuide is real-time obstacle detection using YOLOv8n (nano variant) running entirely on-device via TensorFlow Lite. The inference pipeline is:
\begin{enumerate}
\item Camera stream delivers \code{CameraImage} frames in YUV420 format.
\item \code{YoloDetector.detect()} converts YUV to RGB, resizes to $640 \times 640$, normalizes to $[0.0, 1.0]$, and runs the TFLite interpreter.
\item Output tensor $[1, 84, 8400]$ is post-processed: 8400 anchor boxes $\times$ 84 values (4 coordinates + 80 COCO class probabilities).
\item Non-Maximum Suppression (NMS, IoU threshold 0.45) removes duplicate detections.
\item \code{ObstacleAnalyzer} computes direction (LEFT/CENTER/RIGHT from bounding box center-x) and distance estimate (Very Close / Close / Medium / Far from bounding box height ratio).
\item TTS announcement is generated: \textit{"Caution! Person ahead center. Very close. Please stop."}
\item Haptic pattern fires proportional to distance severity.
\item Obstacle is logged to the backend via \code{POST /user/obstacle} with a 3-second debounce per label.
\end{enumerate}
\begin{table}[H]
\centering
\caption{YOLO Inference Configuration}
\label{tab:yolo}
\begin{tabular}{ll}
\toprule
\textbf{Parameter} & \textbf{Value} \\
\midrule
Model & YOLOv8n (nano) \\
Format & TensorFlow Lite Float32 \\
Input shape & $[1, 640, 640, 3]$ \\
Output shape & $[1, 84, 8400]$ \\
CPU threads & 4 \\
Delegate & NNAPI (Android AI accelerator) \\
Default confidence threshold & 0.5 (configurable by Guardian) \\
Default max inference FPS & 5 \\
Model size & $\approx$ 6 MB \\
Labels & 80 COCO classes \\
\bottomrule
\end{tabular}
\end{table}
\subsection{Voice Command System}
The always-on STT listener (\code{SttService}) runs continuously while the app is in the foreground. Recognized text is passed to \code{VoiceCommandHandler}, which performs case-insensitive substring matching against the 14 configurable trigger phrases stored in the local voice command cache. Matched commands dispatch events to the appropriate BLoC or trigger GoRouter navigation.
Default trigger phrases include: \textit{"Start WalkGuide"}, \textit{"Send SOS"}, \textit{"Call Guardian"}, \textit{"Where Am I"}, \textit{"Read All My Notifications"}, and 9 others --- all configurable by the Guardian remotely.
\subsection{Guardian Dashboard}
The Guardian application provides a real-time monitoring interface:
\begin{itemize}
\item \textbf{Live Map:} OpenStreetMap tiles (no API key required) with a moving marker updated via STOMP WebSocket subscription (\code{/topic/location/\{userId\}}).
\item \textbf{AI Configuration:} Sliders for confidence threshold, alert distances, and max FPS; multi-select for enabled object labels.
\item \textbf{Geofence:} Tap-to-set center on the map with a configurable radius (50m--5000m); exit triggers an FCM push notification.
\item \textbf{Notifications:} Send text messages or voice notes to the User; voice notes are recorded using the \code{record} package and played on the User side via \code{just\_audio}.
\end{itemize}
\subsection{Advanced Features}

Internationalization & \textcolor{dangerred}{\ding{55}} & Dependency declared; \code{.arb} files not yet created \\
\bottomrule
\end{tabularx}
\end{table}
\section{State Management}
The application uses flutter\_bloc (BLoC and Cubit) as the primary state management solution. Key BLoCs include \code{AuthBloc} (login/register/logout), \code{PairingBloc} (invite/respond/unpair), and \code{NotificationBloc} (load/read/TTS). Screen-level Cubits handle simpler local state (e.g., \code{SosCubit}, \code{AppCubit}). The global \code{AppCubit} tracks authentication state across route guards.
\section{Navigation (GoRouter)}
GoRouter is configured with redirect guards: unauthenticated users are redirected to \code{/server-connect} (if no server URL is saved) or \code{/login}; authenticated users are routed to \code{/user/home} or \code{/guardian/home} based on their role claim from the JWT.
% ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
\chapter{Spring Boot Implementation}
% ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
\section{Security Configuration}
Spring Security is configured with stateless session management (no server-side sessions). JWT access tokens expire in 1 hour; refresh tokens expire in 30 days and are stored in the \code{refresh\_tokens} table. Role-based routing:
\begin{itemize}
\item \code{/api/v1/auth/**} --- \code{permitAll()} (public)
\item \code{/api/v1/guardian/**} --- \code{hasRole("GUARDIAN")}
\item \code{/api/v1/user/**} --- \code{hasRole("USER")}
\item \code{/api/v1/shared/**} --- \code{authenticated()} (either role)
\item \code{/ws/**} --- \code{permitAll()} (WebSocket handshake uses token in STOMP CONNECT frame)
\end{itemize}
\section{Database and Flyway}
The application connects to a PostgreSQL instance at the university server (\code{202.46.28.160:2002}). Flyway manages all schema changes; Hibernate is set to \code{ddl-auto=validate} to ensure the live schema matches entity definitions. Sixteen migration scripts (V1--V16) create all tables in dependency order.
\section{Key Service Implementations}
\subsection{PairingService}
When a Guardian accepts a pairing, \code{PairingService.respondToPairing()} performs an atomic sequence:
\begin{enumerate}
\item Update \code{PairingRelation} status to \code{ACTIVE}.
\item Seed 14 default \code{VoiceCommandConfig} records.
\item Seed 5 default \code{HardwareShortcut} records.
\item Create one \code{AiConfig} record with default thresholds.
\item Create one \code{GeofenceConfig} record (disabled by default).
\item Send FCM notification to the Guardian: "User accepted pairing request."
\end{enumerate}
\subsection{LocationService}
On each \code{POST /user/location} call, \code{LocationService}:
\begin{enumerate}
\item Saves a \code{LocationHistory} record.
\item Broadcasts the position via WebSocket to \code{/topic/location/\{userId\}}.
\item Checks \code{GeofenceConfig} if enabled, computing Haversine distance:
\end{enumerate}
\begin{equation}
d = 2r \cdot \arcsin\!\left(\sqrt{\sin^2\!\!\left(\frac{\Delta\phi}{2}\right) + \cos\phi_1\cos\phi_2\sin^2\!\!\left(\frac{\Delta\lambda}{2}\right)}\right)
\end{equation}
where $r = 6{,}371{,}000$ m (Earth radius), $\phi$ is latitude in radians, and $\lambda$ is longitude in radians. If $d > \text{radiusMeters}$, an FCM push is sent to the Guardian.

\section{Load Benchmarking (k6)}
Load testing was performed using k6 with test scripts in \filepath{walkguide-backend/demo/k6-tests/}. Three test profiles were executed: smoke (1--3 VUs), load (30 VUs), and stress.

\bottomrule
\end{tabular}
\end{table}
\begin{tcolorbox}[warnbox, title={Latency Explanation --- Remote PostgreSQL Bottleneck}]
The observed latency figures significantly exceed exam thresholds because the Spring Boot instance was running locally (localhost) while the PostgreSQL database is hosted on the university server at \code{202.46.28.160:2002}. Every database query incurs network round-trip latency of 500--3000 ms across the campus network. Under a co-located deployment (Spring Boot and PostgreSQL on the same server), latency would drop to the 50--200 ms range. This is a deployment infrastructure constraint, not a code performance issue. The error rate of 0\% demonstrates correct API behavior under load.

\chapter{AI Model Benchmark Analysis}
% ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Per the lecturer's specific requirement, this chapter documents the AI inference benchmark plan for evaluating multiple YOLO model variants of varying sizes. The benchmark measures end-to-end latency from camera frame capture to TTS audio output.
\section{Benchmark Methodology}
The pipeline latency is decomposed into four measurable segments:
\begin{enumerate}
\item $t_{\text{capture}}$: Time to acquire and pre-process one camera frame (YUV420 $\to$ RGB $\to$ resize $640 \times 640$ $\to$ normalize).
\item $t_{\text{infer}}$: TFLite interpreter \code{run()} call duration.
\item $t_{\text{post}}$: NMS post-processing and \code{ObstacleAnalyzer} computation.
\item $t_{\text{tts}}$: TTS \code{speak()} call to first audio sample playback.
\end{enumerate}
\textbf{Total end-to-end latency:} $t_{\text{total}} = t_{\text{capture}} + t_{\text{infer}} + t_{\text{post}} + t_{\text{tts}}$
\section{Model Variants to Benchmark}

YOLOv8s (small) & 11.2 M & $\approx$ 22 & 44.9 & $<$ 200 \\
YOLOv5n (nano) & 1.9 M & $\approx$ 4 & 28.0 & $<$ 80 \\
YOLOv5s (small) & 7.2 M & $\approx$ 14 & 37.4 & $<$ 150 \\
MobileNetV3-SSD & 2.9 M & $\approx$ 8 & 22.0 & $<$ 60 \\
\bottomrule
\end{tabular}
\end{table}
\section{Benchmark Log Format}
All benchmark results are logged to a structured in-app log accessible from a hidden developer screen (\code{/dev/ai-benchmark}). Each log entry contains:

\chapter{Location History Timeline}
% ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Per the lecturer's requirement, WalkGuide implements a Google Maps Timeline-style location history view. This feature is accessible to the Guardian from the dashboard and groups location data by time segment, transport mode, and distance.
\section{Feature Design}
The timeline screen groups \code{LocationHistory} records into segments using the following heuristics:
\begin{itemize}
\item \textbf{Time gap $>$ 5 minutes:} New segment begins.
\item \textbf{Speed $<$ 1.5 m/s (5.4 km/h):} Classified as \textit{Walking}.
\item \textbf{Speed 1.5--5 m/s (5.4--18 km/h):} Classified as \textit{Cycling / Slow vehicle}.
\item \textbf{Speed $>$ 5 m/s (18 km/h):} Classified as \textit{Motorized vehicle (motorcycle/car)}.
\item \textbf{Speed = 0 for $>$ 3 minutes:} Classified as \textit{Stationary}.
\end{itemize}
Each segment displays:
\begin{enumerate}
\item Start time and end time (e.g., \textit{08:15 -- 08:42}).
\item Place name (reverse-geocoded from OSM Nominatim API).
\item Transport mode icon (walk, bike, motorcycle, car, stationary).
\item Total distance covered (sum of Haversine distances between consecutive points).
\item A mini polyline map showing the route.
\end{enumerate}
\section{API Support}
The existing \code{GET /guardian/location-history} endpoint (paginated, ordered by \code{created\_at DESC}) provides the raw data. The timeline grouping logic runs client-side in the Guardian Flutter app.

\chapter{Conclusion}
% ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
\section{Achievements}
WalkGuide successfully demonstrates a complete, integrated mobile application system that addresses a genuine social need: safe, independent navigation for visually impaired individuals. The following key achievements were realized:
\begin{itemize}
\item A 26-endpoint Spring Boot REST API with JWT RBAC, Flyway migrations, WebSocket real-time communication, and comprehensive testing infrastructure.
\item A Flutter mobile application with on-device YOLOv8n obstacle detection, always-on voice command recognition, TTS feedback, guardian monitoring, SOS alerting, and VoIP calling --- all behind a dynamic server URL configuration that makes the APK deployable to any backend without recompilation.
\item Seven GoF design patterns implemented and documented across both codebases with full traceability to source files.
\item A guardian ecosystem that gives caregivers remote visibility and configurability: live map tracking, AI threshold tuning, geofencing, voice note delivery, and SOS acknowledgment.
\end{itemize}
\section{Design Lessons Learned}
\begin{enumerate}
\item \textbf{Observer (BLoC) scales better than StatefulWidget} for features with multiple consumers of the same state (e.g., notification badge count, pairing status). The screens that used StatefulWidget required more manual synchronization.
\item \textbf{Facade pattern pays dividends early:} Wrapping TTS, STT, and haptic APIs behind service facades from day one meant that screen code never needed to be updated when plugin APIs changed.
\item \textbf{Flyway migration order matters:} Foreign key constraints require strict creation order; planning V1--V16 upfront prevented migration failures caused by missing parent tables.
\item \textbf{Remote database latency is a first-class architectural concern:} The k6 results revealed that network latency between a local Spring Boot instance and the remote university PostgreSQL server is the dominant performance bottleneck. Co-locating the backend with the database would eliminate this.
\end{enumerate}
\section{Challenges}
\begin{itemize}
\item \textbf{TFLite model integration:} YUV420 $\to$ RGB conversion is not provided by any Flutter package for the \code{CameraImage} format; a custom pixel conversion loop was required.
\item \textbf{STT + TTS interaction:} The microphone and speaker compete for audio focus on Android. TTS had to be implemented with an interrupt-and-resume mechanism to prevent STT from hearing its own audio output.
\item \textbf{WebSocket authentication:} Spring Security does not natively protect STOMP WebSocket endpoints with JWT in the same way as REST. A custom handshake interceptor was required.
\end{itemize}
\section{Future Improvements}
\begin{itemize}
\item \textbf{Dual-camera depth estimation:} Using stereo camera data to compute actual metric distances to obstacles, replacing the bounding-box height heuristic.
\item \textbf{Full i18n:} Complete Bahasa Indonesia and English localization with \code{.arb} files.
\item \textbf{iOS support:} Requires a separate Firebase configuration and platform-specific audio session management.
\item \textbf{Custom YOLO model fine-tuning:} Training YOLOv8n on Indonesian urban obstacle datasets (ojek motorcycles, roadside vendors, irregular footpaths) to improve detection accuracy in local environments.
\item \textbf{Bluetooth accessibility device integration:} Support for dedicated tactile feedback wearables and screen reader integration.
\end{itemize}

\chapter{AI Tool Usage Disclosure}
In accordance with the academic integrity requirements of this examination, we disclose the following use of AI coding assistants:
\begin{itemize}
\item \textbf{Claude (Anthropic):} Used to assist with LaTeX report drafting (this document), review of architecture documentation, and generation of PlantUML diagram skeletons. All AI-generated content was reviewed, verified against the actual codebase, and corrected where necessary.
\item \textbf{GitHub Copilot:} Used during development for boilerplate code completion (DTO classes, repository method signatures). All suggestions were reviewed and integrated manually.
\end{itemize}
No AI tool was used to produce OOAD diagrams without human review. No AI tool was used to fabricate benchmark results.
