The project started January 26th, 2014.

Week 1 (January 26th - January 30th)

 * Project discovery
 * Discovery of Kodi (formerly XBMC) and the add-on structure

Sprint 1 (February 02nd - February 14th)

 * Installation of a shared library in kodi between computers
 * Use of mySQL database/server on the SalleAIR computer
 * Synchronization of the movies lecture (can resume a movie on any computer, viewed list updating)
 * Discovery of dev tool for the kinect : we chose to use C++ library (native library) instead of python one's, because on windows, it is not userfriendly at all, and in the aim of providing an addon that can be easily installed, it's not the good solution.
 * Discovery of the source code of the remote control android application

Sprint 2 (February 23rd - March Xth)

 * Development of the kodi add-on
 * Pop-up mechanism
 * Port communication in order to communicate with the kinect program. We first wanted to use DBus or ZMQ but once again, the fact that the installation is not easy on windows, is incompatible with the fact that we want an addon easily installable by anyone.
 * Development of a kinect program to count the number of people in front of the TV
 * Development of the NFC part, and including it in the remote control android application
