\chapter{Materials \& Methods}
To develop, test and benchmark MagSend the following devices and software are needed:

A laptop, which acts as the sender. This laptop needs to be able to run a modern web browser which supports the Web Workers API (see \autoref{section:webworkers}). The operating system is irrelevant as MagSend is web based.

An Android smartphone, which acts as the receiver. This phone should run at least Android version 10 to be able to run the MagSend client application. Furthermore it is required that the phone has a magnetometer. Most modern smartphones should have a hall effect sensor for that purpose (see \autoref{section:hallEffectSensor}).

For developing, the official IDE for Android development, Android Studio \cite{androidStudio} was used. While this is not strictly required to run MagSend, it should be the most convenient way to do so.
