I'm working on...

Paul can not help me as his PHD work, but I'm lucky I've good supporter and partner. Few days ago, he phoned me with excitement about the robot's laser and the camera are working. Now we can using the robot's tracking system and it is better that we get less data transformation between different computers.

For mine, MAX/MSP goes fine recently, I'd some scattered patches for the data receive and send; sound generation. I was going to edit some music and put into "buffer". It is fine for just making nice sound, if considering the sound expression, I changed mind. I'm trying to generate the MIDI note. Each time , a new is triggered. Each parameter (pitch, velocity, duration) can be triggered separately (depend on the given number -- considered like distance, time, location, speed). I think this suppose work fine too. Think about the sound control, I'm using "metro","counter", "route" "pack" "unpack"... but still a little confuse to organize these data (not good math).

About setup the camera, we spent all the afternoon to figure out the better way -- where to knock in nails; how to hung the camera stable; apply permission; borrow ladder... finally, we decide to hang a cord between handrails with pulley system. As far as this plan is, we don't have to apply permission, borrow ladder, drill holes... If the camera is setup, to me, the next steps will be the data processing for the robot (might also sound control).
