Topic: New apps... but not for me

There are several new apps announced via the twitter feed (http://twitter.com/violetOS) but they all report my object is not compatible. For example: make nabaztag go to sleep (which requires a rir:ror or a nabaztag:tag) is reporting it's not compatible with my nabaztag:tag.

Is my rabbit just shy? smile

Cheers,
Reeves

P.S. Been having fun playing with the API, thanks for the cool toy Violet!

Re: New apps... but not for me

I was delighted to see these new apps, especially the Nabaztag sleep app.   I configured it on a zstamp as I have been struggling to find some practical uses for them.  I typically use the iphone app to put my nabaztags to sleep, but this is actually more convenient to make them sleep.  And with the app, the nabaztag plays some nice harp sounds and says "Ah, I'd give anything for a little sleep."  I'm having some problems waking them up though.  Will have to play around a bit more.

Reeves, the nano:ztags should be available in the U.S. soon (mid-may 2009) according to guys at the ZStore.  I recommend picking up a couple if you haven't already!  The zstamps are also available now in the zstore.

Thank you, Violet!

Re: New apps... but not for me

I've already ordered some ztamps. Do I need to have some in order to use some of these apps?

I'm looking forward the nanos.

Cheers,
Reeves

Re: New apps... but not for me

Cool.  Yeah, I think for most of these you need trigger the app in some way on the nabaztag.  Though it seems like the Nabaztag Show app could be voice activated, since it does not require any parameters.  It would be cool if you could just say "demo" or the like to get it to do the show.

Re: New apps... but not for me

Reeves, all the apps we posted on Twitter are apps to be installed on ztamps or nano:ztag or your own RFID tags.

Spacebunny, the thing with the sleep app is that you can send the rabbit to sleep when showing the ztamp but then when the rabbit is asleep he cannot smell things. So basically, there are two ways to get the rabbit awake again :
- show your ztamp to a mirror (and set your Nabaztag as the object whre the app has to be run)
- go to the website and submit the regular sleeping hours
We'll have to improve this a bit to make it easier to use.
