Progress of the project
The project started January 14th, 2013.
Week 1 (January 13th - Janurary 19th)
- Project discovery
- Research of related projects
Week 2 (January 20th - Janurary 26th)
- Development of team goals
- Get a kit to assemble Air-Rob
- Initialize the assembly phase of the robot in partnership with the team of David Levayer and Paul Marriage
- Search on "how to make a skype plugin"
- First attempt to run via java skype: skype must currently be run with a graphical interface for the java code works.
- Search how Skype is used to
Week 3 (January 27th - February 2nd)
- Assembly of two new RobAIRs --> just one for the moment
- Beginning of the redaction of Software Requirements Specification
- ROS environment installed on Ubuntu and work
- RobAIR can now move by itself ! (debug in progress)
- Meeting with Amr Alyafi (effective code obtained)
Week 4 (February 3th - February 7th)
- Fixe Skype objectif with M. Donsez
- We try to run the code from previous years (we can't understand how their project could work with so many mistakes...)
- Now robair can speak with keyboards press

Week 5 (February 10th - February 14th)
- Bug with control and webcam connexion (client try to connect himself but he can't be connected to the server)
- Meeting with M. Donsez because we are so in late to realized this project : Finaly we modify us subject --> skype can't worked because code is closed so we are going to use "WebRTC".
