Announcements

• 06/27/06 Posted a linkt to an entire book on protocol design and a Berkley paper on wireless protocol design. The Berkley paper is a real-world application of the stuff in the protocol desing book. They are a great starting point for our wireless desing. --Phillip
• 06/20/06 I looked up the price of the dev kit for the Linx modules. You get everything you need but it cost $299.99 on digikey. Here is a link to it Dev kit. It might be a good idea to go ahead and buy it to test out. They have an ES-series quick kit thats a bit cheaper at $179.99. Its here.--Phillip
• 06/17/06 I've posted the schematic for the wireless board. Its a rough version one, I'll refine it through the week. Give your input, its under the wireless in the electrical section. I've also posted the general roadmap on this page under general roadmap. I'm going to make an excel version that each area can add to. Be sure to post all updates to the wiki since I'm not there at the meetings, I'd appreciate it cause this is only way I can communicate with ya'll.--Phillip
• 06/01/06 I've updated the electrical with a to-do list on each page. Also have we chosen a motor yet? Andy by general roadmap do you mean the plan we wrote up at the meeting?--Phillip Yes. --Andy 11:13, 2 June 2006 (EDT)
