April 22

New features added: can see wifi icons on robots list.

A few issues still remain. Close them. Need video demo.

April 8

Robot stops and sounds alarm before hitting obstable. Warning system settings.

Can move waypoints and add new ones.

Help tutorial screens.

RC1 functionality is there. App is nearly done. I added a few small Issues.

March 25

New demo shows waypoints working (robot gets stuck sometimes). Good progress. Close to RC1.

@lightyz cannot attend any of the meetings because of work

March 4

Demo looks good.

Will meet on Monday to check waypoints implementation.

For RC1:

  • Give it to someone in robotics class, watch them try to use it.
  • Work on usability features: make it easy to connect, easy and safe to drive.

Feb 19

Unit test has been added. Work on integration test started.

Demo looks good.

For next meeting:

  • beta demo.

Feb 5

Team did not add beta features as I requested below. So, I added Beta milestone and some issues.

There is no need to use pull requests since you are all on the same repo. It is easier to just "merge into master" from Android Studio.

No tests yet.

For next meeting:

  • Demo
  • Tests

Jan 22

For next meeting:

  • Start reading about Android testing
  • Add features to Issues, associate with Beta milestone.

Andrew, Zipporah did not attend.

Final demo done: android app moves simulated robot and shows camera input.

Nov 9

One remaining person: git push.

Demo: Android app talks to ROS simulator on laptop, can show camera from laptop and laser sensor map.

Good progress, on track. Keep working.

Maybe, for demo have a nicer GUI.

Oct 26

For December demo:

  1. An app running a tablet.
  2. Joystick controls robot.
  3. Get some input from robot to app: photos? GPS location? laser map?

For next meeting:

  • Everyone commit and push to github.
  • Start coding towards December demo, start using issues.
  • From now on, demo at meetings.

Rosjava docs: http://docs.rosjava.googlecode.com/hg/android_core/html/javadoc/org/ros/android/view/package-summary.html

Have a repo that can build an Android app that talks to to ros simulator and implements a Joystick view.

For next meeting:
