So then, the Fall semester is starting and that means less "personal-project" time for me, but this doesn't mean the Lazer-tag hacking greatness can't go on. All it means is we need more... *hit it Steve!*

The Projects

Functional / Development Nearly Stopped

• Lazer Tag Node : A portable device which has IR transmitter and receivers and can speak the LTAG language. Useful for bases, targets, or zones for king of the hill.
• AVR32 Hosting Station : Sets up and runs a Lazer Tag game, assigning players, setting parameters and retrieving scores.
• Grenade : Massive amounts of tags at the push of a button. Enough Said.

In Progress

• Lazer Main Board : Replacing the main board of the Phoenix LTX with a programmable replacement + wireless capabilities.

Wish List

• Android Hosting Software : Communicates with the hosting station over Bluetooth to set parameters of game. Collects scores at the end and relays them to Internet server.
• Lazer Tag Online : Stores scores in database + web interface for stats tracking! Team management etc...

The Repositories

I've set up gitweb, gitosis, and git-daemon on my gateway computer so others can access the code base via git, Tortoise git, etc...

The gitweb site listing all the projects is here: http://git.nerd256.net:8080/

For those of you who haven't used git before, here's an example to anonymously clone my repository (you won't be able to push though):
git clone git://git.nerd256.net/LTAG.grenade.git

To contribute, I'll need a public key from you, then you'll pull and push changes over an ssh+git connection.
