Since several months three of my colleagues (Johannes L. , and Dominik R. ) and me have put together our new Campus Information System. We use a customized version of Xibo linked together with our internal process management system aCTIons to get various information about room assignments and upcoming events for students on our information screens. In addition we also have some campus news channels, special event information pages etc.

The whole System can be configured trough a central server web interface. Every Infoscreen can be independently configured which and when some information should be shown.

For the last weeks Martin has been finishing our first H-Frame based Quadrocopter.

After some PID parameter tuning we got a very smooth flying Quadro. But see for your self,….

The past days we did some recruiting for our new image processing project…. In the end only one survived Markus selection procedures of hell.

So let’s say hello to Fred.

Fred responsibilities will be:

• check that we meet our 33fps goal
• exactly maintaining up to 6 coffee breaks per day
• check the results of our gain/gamma correction algorithm
• check the circle ROI (photo) for disharmonies
• and last but not least motivate our lead programmer Markus

4 months ago I began to buildup a shiny new server system for our new Moodle system.

We currently have an instance of v. 2.0.2+ running.
After playing around with it over the last few months, we have been very satisfied with it.

Now we currently in the phase where we are comparing Clixs vs moodle. One of them will be our next elearning solution.

so stay tuned…..

All good things come to those who wait. We finally got our Motörs and Controllers.

16 for me the rest for the students 🙂
