Day 9: (Tue Sep 29, Week 5) Prototyping in Simulation

Notes for 2020-09-29.

New Assignments

1. Before next class: test your party result on the server using the networked world with the delegate and proxy robots. On Thursday we’ll try running them all during class.

2. The next assignment will be posted by Thursday, but it will be a multi-part assignment to create a simulation testing a critical aspect of your proposed project. Draft is here: Exercise: Project Simulation.

Daily Agenda

1. Review robot party videos.

2. Brief MQTT demo.

3. Q&A

4. Discussion:

   1. In brief, what is your proposed project as you envision it today?

   2. What is the most critical unknown aspect of behavior, interaction or aesthetics?

   3. What is the most critical unknown technical requirement?

   4. Can either be tested in simulation?

5. What specific advice or assistance will be needed?
