Come up with good names #32

Closed pkok closed 11 years ago

pkok commented 11 years ago

We need names for the heads and bodies. During today's meeting, we have decided that we want the heads to have first names, and the bodies to have English titles. This will come in handy for documenting problems in a human-like way ("Lord Johnny does not respond to X, but Duke Johnny works fine."). We also decided that the robots are masculine.

Come up with a list of titles and male names!

I know it isn't very cool and all, but can't we colorcode the bodies and indicate these with a (small) colored sticker inside the battery compartment? In that case, we don't have to come up with surnames that fit with every forename - just attach 'the Red', 'the Blue', 'the Razzmatazz'.

Also, this.

That sounds really practical, actually.

Then, do we still want the robots to have names or numbers are okay? The main argument in favor of numbers, is that you can easily remember its IP address. The main argument against is you might mix up its player number with its name.

colors are nice! names for the heads and we are done? NaoScp assigns Nao # for each robot, if we want to change to a name-scheme ,we have to change that as well.

I am letting Mus come up with 2 names for the new bodies. If we decide on keeping the names for the heads (Nao1, Nao2 etc) than we 'could' just keep the old names, for example 'Nao1 Henk'. Though i really liked the idea of having Bodies having jobtitles, so you can have 'King Duncan1' or 'Janitor Duncan1' and 'Pyrotechnics Henk2' ?!?!

We decided that the robot heads will be named after a number. The bodies will have a color as name. The color name (not the color itself) will be put under its shoulder pad. @fleischhauf will do this.

All robots are labeled now.
