So, for the couple of days we have the following tasks set which are tasks defined at bitbucket:
John:
- Finally start with the event system with some simple event triggers based on time and incoming data from sensors, and of course have commands sent to devices when needed.
- Start with the media plugin base and begin writing the XBMC plugin for XBMC version 12, connected with of course the event system.
- Support Marcel with Server drivers for his hardware devices.
Marcel:
- Finalize the base functionalities with the adafruit led strip with a ldr and temperature measurements controlled by an arduino boot loaded atmega chip, which communicates with the pi through i2c.
- Create an initial hardware interface with an hall effect sensor, so he knows when for example when a door is open or closed. done with an ATtiny chip and also through I2C with the pi.
- Create a little relay switch board for switching appliances with an ATTiny through I2C.
- When there is time left some PIR sensoring stuff for detecting movement.
As you can see, a quite large wishlist for the next four days. We hope to initial have some extra hardware, event triggers and we can control our XBMC installation.
