10/13/2004 - Having Bluetooth as our protocol

  
Last week the team met twice to discuss the technical issues of the project. During the 7th of October meeting every team member was given a chance to talk about his research on Wi-Fi and to reason out why he preferred to have Bluetooth or Wi-Fi as the communicating protocol. After a long discussion the majority of the team members concluded that having Bluetooth as our protocol will be beneficial in both technical and market aspects. During Sunday (10/10/04) meeting all of us concentrated on the Gantt chart and the team duty chart. Each member was allocated major tasks for the entire project. The team agreed that as a starting step the entire system should me modelled before starting to build it. Finding the suitable Bluetooth kit was another challenged faced by the team. Every one was asked find at least three development kits to bring it to the next meeting.
