A boothless and phoneless phone booth with analogical phonebook at EPFL.
Nach der Streetparade kam die Lethargy auf.
CatchBob! Visualizer is built on top of the CatchBob! Server. It visualizes real-time, recorded or simulated activities of the CatchBob! players. Its goal is to provide a base to analyze the wide load of data generated during a game.
Current features:
Real-time:
- Start/Stop a CatchBob! Server
- Store into a .log file the game events (command and refresh)
- Play with virtual players
Replay:
- Load games .log file and replay all the game events
- Forward, rewind, skip
Simulate:
- Base to simulate with agents and have “smart” virtual players
View:
- History
- Commands
- Triangle
- Time
- Logs
- Path length
Future directions could be:
- Visualize what every player experiences (view according to the player’s refreshes)
- Global visualization with the movement done outside of the refreshes (using access points sniffed every 7 seconds on the iPaq)
- Easy access to data for statistics and maps generationof the refreshes, commands, triangles, wi-fi usage, % of the campus covered, number of areas each participant searched in, number of areas all the participant searched, overlap, backtracking
- …

Funny to see the people at Placelab stumbling on the same problems as me. From their mailing-list:
Originally, our xp spotter sends the scan command to the NDIS driver, than it immediately queries the driver for the bssid list. However the scanning happens at background and the scan function returns immediately (or asychronously). As a result, the bssids returned is in fact for the second to the last scanning. EX: If we are scanning at 2 second interval, the bssids returned were 2 second old. A quick fix is to simply wait certain time after the scan command. MSDN suggest 6 seconds, but I use 300 ms based on the Linux spotter setting.
Via Les Lausannois surferont bientôt dans les rues, des hotspots vont être installés ce mois-ci à la place de la Riponne, la Palud, la Navigation et celle du Port à Lausanne.
A very early version of ShoutSpace is running. It relies on a .NET Compat Framework C# client, the CraftStumbler (CraftDeamon) dll and classes for the WiFi localization, SOAP for the client(.NET)/server(Axis) communication and Hibernate to take care of the persistence in the backend.
Current features:
- Localizing people (figure 1)
- View/Post shout messages (figure 2)

Finally a fine iPod app for Windows. MyPodSoft plays music from your iPod while it is connected to your PC and extract songs from the iPod. Other iPodSoft apps for iPod are mentionned in iPodSoft – more than music (Freeware Smart Client Apps) from Jono’s Blog.
