This page summarizes the schedule of the project.

== March 29th - April 15th, 2010 ==
March 29th - April 01 : Arrival at the EQUIS Lab, learning of  XNA and 3D sound.

April 02nd - 08th : Creation and testing of a paper prototype.

April 09th - 15th : 
* Modification and testing of the paper prototype. 
* Implementing part of the game so that a person can move around with the GPS, the compass and the gyroscope. Moreover, the person is able to hear and see the power sources.

== Sprint 1: April 15-29, 2010 ==
* Document animal game idea
** Get informal feedback from people about whether they think the game will be fun
* Implement to point where
** players can hear the animals
** when a player walks over an animal, they hear a sound and the animal is "picked up"
** if time permits, have animals move
* Test this first prototype with users to determine fun, usability

A full description of the sprint, along with it's results are available on the page [[Ubiquitous Ambient Gaming - Sprint 1 : April 15-29, 2010]].

== Sprint 2: April 29 - May 13, 2010 == 
* Extending the game
** add the tigers
** add the cages
* Improving the user experience
** find better sound samples (longer, less annoying)
** add sound effects
* Testing
** new sound card (informal testing)
** first mobile testing

A full description of the sprint, along with it's results are available on the page [[Ubiquitous Ambient Gaming - Sprint 2 : April 29 - May 17, 2010]].

== Sprint 3: May 17-27, 2010 ==
* Evaluation of the interfaces of the game (inside doors)
* Evaluation of the localization of animals (outdoors)
* Evaluation of the localization of the cages (outdoors)
* Evaluation of the balance of the game (area size, time, number of animals...)

== Sprint 4: May 27-June 10, 2010 ==
* Evaluation of the localization of animals (outdoors)
* Evaluation of the localization of the cages (outdoors)
* Evaluation of the balance of the game (area size, time, number of animals...)

== Sprint 5: June 10-24, 2010 ==
* Fix the problems discovered in the game to have it ready for study
* Design the study
* Prepare the ethics application
