Meeting notes for Wednesday, Oct. 1st, 08

Guys,

Per our discussion this week, we were able to outline the following points:

Me: to provide Len with part numbers for 2 different Gumstix configurations, 1 with Audiostix and 1 with the LCD driver. They are to communicate via USB or Bluetooth. I will provide the part #s for the board with built in bluetooth, more RAM and flash ROM as originally layed out in the proposal.

The following will be proposed:
1 Verdex Pro XM4-BT motherboard + audiostix2 ($159 + 40)
1 Verdex Pro XM4-BT motherboard + consoleLCD16vx ($159 + 49)
1 Samsung LCD ($85)

I will work on getting a copy of the SDK for Linux OpenEmbedded running. I will grab a recent CVS copy of the codebase, compile it and become accustomed to doing custom kernels with modules. I will also look into Qtopia Core and see how easily that can be compiled for OpenEmbedded and built on top of the Linux OE. I will also look into Graph plot and plotting widgets for Qtopia.

Ashish: Check up on chest strap left behind by Jenna and see what kind of condition it is in. Try go get some sample data captures from it. Check the coil and take some measurements. Perhaps look at winding a new coil with help from Len and Nagui for the magwire.

Octav: Is to work closely with Ashish on the chest strap and coil measurements so as to get a good idea how to pickup the signals and help with signal conditioning before transmission.

Len: send us the links to the Israeli company that makes the heartbeat monitor chips.
