We are at the end of the week, and it looks like we will have a very busy, exciting summer. We have learned a bit about the project that we will be working on, but first we have some preliminary work to do. This week we completed tutorials on C#, Windows 8.1 apps, and Cortana to make sure that we are up to date on everything. We will also be doing a project with Arduino at some point this summer, which I am very excited about! I have always wanted to tinker with it. You can find more information on Arduino here: http://www.arduino.cc/
Our project will be to take a robot, make it autonomous, and enable it to have a human-like interaction with the elderly in order to increase the quality of life and extend the amount of time elderly people can have in their own home.
Our next task will be to create a couple of apps to refine our skills in creating Windows apps. We will eventually be integrating our voice-enabled home automation app with openHAB.
I am looking forward to it!
