Week 2: Group allocation and roles

In this second week of the course, we were allocated into a group of 5 students. Our group is on the kinect and arduino project. We will be working with Kinect sensor and Arduino set and connecting to CryEngine 3 environment. In this week we discussed and brainstorm on our ideas towards project. Many ideas came up and we still have not yet decided which approach we are going to.

The ideas that we had at the end of the class was automated garbage disposal system, automated alarm and locking system, automated bed heater/cooler and electronic storage.

The use of sensor in out ideas are the facial recognition and hand gesture control from kinect to Arduino.

For the role and responsibility. We discussed and allocate each role to fit to individual skill. My roles are as followed:

- Ensures that there are clear communication paths within the project team and the organisation
- Development and operation of technical programmes
- The updates of progress onto wiki

All of the group members will together responsible on Updating Wiki of their progress and approach on the Wiki page.

As me and Janu are the two programmers of the group we then will be working together in term of conducting code to the project. I will be focusing on coding Kinect gesture control to Arduino and Janu will focus on facial recognition coding. We both have Arduino set to take home and start working on the project. The idea is research on Arduino capability and possible coding system and we can discuss what we can do for our project later on.
