To Do

1. We need to calculate our bandwidth requirements and the amount of bandwidth we can actually get from Zigbee to see if this is feasible without compression.
2. Order 2 Xbee chips and 2 8051s and start playing with them.
3. Email the url of this page to Prof. Harris.
4. Look into audio compression algorithms to see if it's possible (and affordable) to encode in real time.
5. Think of other applications for Zigbee, in case streaming audio isn't realistic.


Getting surface mount components is a bad idea. We'll get DIP 8051s and use external ADCs and DACs. For now we can hold off buying ADCs and DACs, as that part of implementation should be trivial.
