Agenda:
 
AID group meeting, February 8th, 2004 at 1:30pm @ Interaccess, 401 
Richmond, Suite 444
 
In-Meeting Tasks:

  1) Work on USB Integration into mainboard.
  Participants: Mike, Rob
  Progress: Rob thinks the USB issues are driver related, will try on a 
PC machine.

  2) Plan out the "Getting started" guide for AID:
      - How to get a chip programmer? Links to schematics/manufacturers.
      - How to build a programmer?  
      - Construction notes (tools, solder tips, external resources)
      - Part and tool suppliers.
      - How to build a mainboard?
      - How to build a test-board?
      - standalone AID test application
      - links to worked solution pages (on community site)

  3) Continue the development of the AID community site.
  Participants: Ian, Tim, Mike, those interested.

  4) Implement bulk write command. (requires 16 arguments)
  Participants: Stefan.  
  Progress: n/a

  5) Modify the AtoD on AID to full 10bits!
  Participants: Ben, Stefan
  Progress: We're now using the 8 most siginificant bits of the reading.

Between-Meeting Tasks:

  1) Complete mainboard PCB Design.
  Participants: Rob, etc.
  Progress: n/a

  2) Decide on which schematic program is standard.

  3) Six Worked solutions for the AID launch:
      - Switch Reader (Ben's Responsibility)
      - A/D Bend Sensor (unowned)
      - Polaroid Rangfinder (Rob's responsibility)
      - Sensbar-120V relay box (Mike's responsibility)
      - Audio/Video Playback (Ben's responsibility)
      - Motor Driver (Yeshua's responsibility)

  4) Revise and fix existing boards for AID Demos
      - sensebar
      - stelarc switch reader
      - PD video playback patch
      - Bend Sensor board
      - Rangefinder

Deffered Tasks:
 
  1) Continue development of map command (change to 16x16 bit array?).
  Participants: Stefan, Ian, Ben
  Progress: n/a
 
Special Events:
 
  * Stefan and Ben did not have time to present their report on the
  "Embdedded Ethernet in C"  workshop last week. Ben and Stefan will
   send a written report to the list. In particular how the workshop 
pertains
   to Open Source, and the AID project.

What we need help with:

   * We need someone from the AID community to take responsibility for the
      "bend sensor" AtoD documentation. The circut is simple, we just need

      someone to take the charge on it. The sensors are available @ 
Interaccess.
   * Anyone will enthusiasm, administrative and/or technical skills to 
help us plan
      the AID launch in a short period of a weeks!  
 
AID is an open participation collaborative project. Please join us on
February 8th from 1:30pm to 5:00pm at InterAccess if you are interested in
helping with:
 
* Designing PCBs
* Adding USB support to AID
* Developing a dynamic AID comunity site.
* Development of the AID Dev Kit.
* Development of the AID command language.
* Planning the AID launch event!  
 
Or, if you are just curious, feel welcome to come and visit.
