Enhancing Team Focus with eXtreme Feedback and Ambient Devices

This project explores the implementation of eXtreme Feedback methodology through innovative ambient devices like the Ambient Orb and Nabaztag bunny. By making feedback engaging and widely accessible, team members can remain subconsciously aware of project objectives. Our approach facilitates a fun and interactive developmental environment, aligning team efforts toward what is crucial at any given moment. The project highlights key milestones, including achieving connectivity with the Nabaztag and enhancing communication tools to foster creativity within the team.

  1. AmbientHackystat Edward Kim Shaoxuan Zhang Sonwright M. Gomez

  2. Goal of Project • Implement the eXtreme Feedback methodology using Ambient Devices, like the Ambient Orb and Nabaztagbunny. • eXtreme Feedback allows a team of developers to bring into focus what is most important at a given time. Nabaztag/tag Ambient Orb

  3. Business Value • Techniques and tools of eXtreme Feedback help in achieving and maintaining focus on what is most important at any given time. • Making feedback mechanism fun helps Organization to draw attention to focus. • Allowing feedback to be broadly available signals which objectives are important. • Subconsciously knowing what is going on with the project.

  4. Team Members • Edward Kim • Background research on Nabaztag • Start up communication between Nabaztag and JnabServer. • Shaoxuan Zhang • Ambient Orb Controller • Sonwright M. Gomez • Background research on Nabaztag • Xml Loader for Ambient Orb Controller

  5. Costs • Time Spent: • ~40 Hours/person total • Money Spent: • Nabaztag Bunny - $175.00 • Allocated Resources • Use of CSDL • Sinclair Library • Hackystat framework • Professor Nickles’ Orb Manager • Discussion groups • Nabaztalk, JnabServer

  6. What’s been produced so far • Ambient Device Controller • Use of controller can change the color and animation of the Ambient Orb. • Connection established between JnabServer, Jnab Client, and Nabaztag bunny. • Clients communicate with Server, which communicates with the Nabaztag bunny.

  7. Live Demo • Ambient Orb • Change color of Ambient orb • Nabaztag rabbit • Startup JnabServer and play boot music • Nabaztag will record voice and playback.

  8. Upcoming Milestones • Second Milestone • Establish connection to internet for Nabaztag bunny • Allow us to use Violet API to control bunny, rather than the JnabServer • Costs (Hours) to get to each milestone • Spend more time with Nabaztag rabbit. • Additional costs • Pepsi Max for Eddie • Popcorn for Shaoxuan • Mango Tea For Sonny

  9. Next Steps • First establish connection to the internet and bypass the UH authentication with the Nabaztag bunny. • Use the Violet API to control the rabbit

  10. Why continue funding us? • Keeping track of build status subconsciously allows development team to be more aware of what is in focus. • Allows developmental environment to be more fun and interactive. • Creative and innovative ways to communicate with your team.
