Skype Notifier

hey guys,

some time ago, i played around with Skypes official API library, called Skype4ComLib. Now that I own a Netduino and needed something useful for it to do i remembered this api and spent some time creating this Application.

It's very simple to set up, you need to deploy the SkypeNotifier app to your Netduino Plus (2), and afterwards run Host.exe on your Computer (skype must be running). Host.exe will ask Skype to get access to the messages, if you accept it will redirect any message you received to your Netduino

of course I included every piece of source code, don't worry it will not forward your messages to anyone else

if you receive a message, your Netduino will blink 10 times and you should see the sender on the first row and the message below.If the message is too long to be displayed on your lcd, it will scoll through the message in any speed you want.

the current Pin setup for the Display is: RS-D8   Enable-D9     Bit 0-3 : D10-D13

in the future, i will work on a Forms Application, and maybe on some commonly used responses wired up to a button to respond without opening Skype

Greetings,

Martin

Oh, nice! How about some pics of the setup?

i guess there isn't much to the setup besides a LCD hooked up to a Netduino, but here you go:

here's a screenshot of the software:

Cool project, also did some projects with the Skype API myself.

Auto-answering, etc.

Also used Skype as communication basic in my diploma project.

Nice to see other skype projects around!

A video (or more pics) would be pretty nice.
