Interactive Systems

Hi all,

1. The deadline for team registration has been extended until Friday (25th April). If you have not registered your team, please do so by this date. No more extensions will be provided after this.

2. You will receive your hardware kits during your tutorials this week. Some kits have new microcontrollers in packets with unsoldered pins. If this is the case, please check with other groups that have two soldered microcontrollers (those not in a packet), and get one from them. After this, each group will have one pre-soldered microcontroller to begin with for their projects.

As a reminder, you are not allowed to solder or glue the components on your own. If your project requires additional soldered microcontrollers, please approach your tutor and we will arrange one for you. Alternatively if your project does not require microcontrollers/HW, you may return it to back to your tutor. 

Best,

Ashwin

Dear students,

Tutorial Assignment 

All of you should now be assigned to a tutorial based on the preferences you had indicated. Please read the following points below for tutorial swapping - only if you absolutely cannot attend the assigned tutorial !

1. If you (or the group you expected to form) find yourselves in a tutorial slot that you absolutely cannot attend, please use the CMS forum to arrange a swap with another person or group. We’ve set up a "Tutorial Swap" category in the forum for this purpose. If you or your group is theoretically available in multiple tutorial slots, please be considerate of those requests from students with more limited availability!
2. Once you've found a swap partner or group, send an email to ias25(at)cs.uni-saarland.de with your names and group numbers. We will make the necessary changes.
3. If you have consulted the CMS forum but haven’t been able to find someone to switch with by Monday (14th April) 11:59 PM, please send us an email on Tuesday morning.

Next Steps

1. The first Tutorial session starts on Monday (14th April). You will form teams for your projects in this session, so it is important to attend. Based on internal discussion, we have revised the team size to 3 members per group.
2. Once you form a team, you should register your team in CMS (under Teams header). One member can create the team and share the generated team code to the other members to let them join. This must be completed by Friday (18th April) 6:00 pm. 
3. If you are unable to find a team by the end of this period, please send an email to ias25(at)cs.uni-saarland.de

Shift of Tutorial on Friday (18th April)

Finally, since this Friday (18th April) is a holiday, the tutorial has been shifted to Thursday (17th April) after the lecture, from 4-6 pm. It will continue in lecture hall. 

We will inform you about the Tutorial on Monday (21st) soon.

Best,

Ashwin
