Project possibilities

Over the last few labs we have been worked with OSC. We have successfully sent and received data and triggered user initiated events using two Arduinos. I cannot really see creating anything very interesting that incorporates user interaction other than pre-packaged information that can be sent by a verity of push button or trigger sensors.

I'm looking forward the seeing the capabilities of the xbee device. If possible I would like to use it to intercept packets from devices that are connected to the network. My overall idea is to create a passive flow of information that can be collected and used to create a visual or physical reaction not explicitly triggered by the user.

From what I have seen so far, data can be sent directly to the xbee device and does have the capabilities for interception. Although a project that creates reactions based on signal strength is a distinct possibility.

Quarter Begins

First brush with OSC programming and active communication between computers. There is a possibility of integrating touch OSC and Lemur as external phone controllers. Project ideas could range from sensor capture on event, or human event. No significant problems or implementation ideas.
