 +===== Proceedings ====
 +
 +In this section you can find the proceedings, transcript or program in retrospective of the elektro:camp(<<2011.10>>). 
 +
 +The Electro:Camp 2011 was visited by approx. 30 people from Belgium, Germany, the Netherlands and Zwitserland.
 +
 +=== Friday 4 November ===
 +
 +The camp started with a welcome word, followed by an introduction round: each participant gave a brief introduction on his/her background and interests. 
 +
 +The demonstration session that followed, was an opportunity to demonstrate cool stuff and introduce the various technologies. Among these were.
 +
 +  * An 8x8x8 RGB Led Cube where the animation was driven by the amount of electrical power consumed by a house. For details about the cube follow [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VzX_hWKN5ak&feature=related|this link]]. A movie of the animation is to be included.
 +
 +  * Jean-Claude Wippler from [[http://jeelabs.org|JeeLabs]] gave an introduction to the [[http://jeelabs.net/projects/hardware/wiki/JeeNode||JeeNode]] and new developments like the JeeNode micro, a smaller  and even lower power version of the JeeNode based on ATTiny microcontroller.
 +
 +  * Bart van der Meersche from [[htrtp://www.flukso.net|Flukso]] described the Flukso energy monitor.
 +
 +  * The [[https://github.com/mysmartgrid/hexabus/wiki|HexaBus]] open source home automation system based on devices communicate using 6LoWPAN on 868 MHz. 
 +
 +  * A demonstration of the first IPv6 enabled (HexaBus) water cooker!
 +
 +  * The [[http://volkszaehler.org|Volkszaehler]] project. This project provides and works on a complete energy monitoring solution: backend software and instructions for 
 + building your own energy meter. One of the volkszaehler demo's were a HexaBus node with DIN-rail formfactor, and a [[http://wiki.volkszaehler.org/hardware/controllers/ir-schreib-lesekopf|read-write-module]] for modern electricity meters. 
 +
 +The demonstration session was followed by dinner in the form of Pizza's and a drinks party, both kindly offered by TNO.
 +
 +=== Saturday 5 November ===
 +
 +This day started with a short introduction round for the new participants, that weren't there on friday. Scheduling was done by writing subjects on post-its, and arranging them to similar subjects. This resulted in a number of sessions on the following subjects:
 +
 +  * Connecting to devices, Reading out gas and water meter
 +    * The [[http://www.xioio.com/|XIOIO]] lab prototyping in a box system is a software programmable I/O device with a webbased drag-and-drop UI for writing programs. The device is used in over [[http://www.aaamc.nl/|here]] for various home-automation and energy saving projects. 
 +    * Reading out the gas and electricity meter with some beautiful woodwork and embedded java (?) and a discussion on how to debounce the sensor signal.
 +
 +  * HexaBus progress, including more demonstrations
 +
 +  * Update on Flukso and a post mortem analysis of the Flukso V2. How to coop with CE certifying and a lessons learned on debugging and fixing EMC problems.
 +
 +  * Very low power design, AC Power measuring, Accuracy
 +
 +  * Visualisation
 +    * HTML Graphing libraries.
 +    * Feedback on energy consumption.
 +
 +  * Remote management, and deployment
 +
 +  * Security, Anonymous authentication
 +
 +  * Forecasting, Demand side management
 +
 +  * API's, Standardization
 +
