Aphasia minutes from 2012/09/19
Heather met our focus group and got some good direction, which she outlined in the document she emailed to us. Passwords versus icon sequences not so important, as long as logins can be retained. My Story/Diary will be a flow of posts, which can individually be shared with any or selected other members. Events calendar […]
Communication is Key
This past week I was able to get the Raspberry Pi device to communicate with my personal windows computer on my local network, via a simple Python program that I based off of what I found here: http://ilab.cs.byu.edu/python/socket/echoserver.html I adapted it a little for Python 3.2 and here is what I ended up with: #client example […]
First Few Weeks
I figured I would come on here and summarize what has happened so far for this project. We (Heather, Chris, Mike, and I) first met Wednesday, September 5th. On this day, Heather explained to us about Aphasia and the different types and how it affects those individuals in their ability to communicate. We also discussed […]
Raspberry Pi + OpenGL ES
OpenGL ES works on the Raspberry Pi! How did I do it? Well, I… Grabbed vim with sudo apt-get install vim. Grabbed my ~/.vimrc. Calmed down. Looked in /opt/vc/src and built and ran the examples there. Braced myself to plow through the EGL junk. Found pyopengles and downloaded it on my Raspberry Pi. Thanks, Mr. Divaz. […]
Storybook minutes from 2012/09/17
Lots of questions about Android projects asked and answered. Nice work, team! Set up PocketSphinx and get the demo app going. Folks have gotten it to work on Windows, but Linux makes it so much easier. (Di) Integrate asset copying code into demo. (Chris) Figure out license. (Chris!) Build a simple rig to test in […]
Simplifying PocketSphinx demo
Following the PocketSphinx Android instructions left me with a demo that did more than I wanted and I didn’t really understand. I pruned away it to simplify it and eliminate the step where I had to copy over the model files with adb. Now, I put the model in my project’s assets directory and mirror that […]
Copying assets out to storage on Android
PocketSphinx depends on some files to get its job done. The HOWTO assumes you push those files over manually. We’d rather bundle them with our app as resources or assets. Assets have the advantage of retaining their directory structure, so we prefer to use them. However, assets don’t have a path to their location on […]
Buster minutes from 2012/09/13
We are not the first. Should we do something different (not a cluster)? Peter says yes. Display wall. Chris says cluster + display wall. “Our goal was secondarily the product. Our primary goal was a repeatable process for building a cluster for a classroom on the cheap.” Chris really didn’t say that at the meeting, […]
Booting, SSH, GUI and Compiling
Buster – The Beginning Upon receiving the Rasberry PI (B) model from Dr. Johnson 8 days ago I’ve been able to accomplish a few things: Boot Raspian Linux Connect to the network and SSH into the device Boot up and explore the GUI in Raspian Write, compile and run a C hello world program I’ll […]
