Bureaucracy
Bureaucracy for Users
- Read first the safety norms (remember that you must know these and comply with them)
- Then there are some bureaucratic procedures to obtain the access to the AIRLab.
- Before completing bureaucratic procedures, you will have to fill in your AIRWiki user page and your project page.
- AIRLab rules (they are few and simple, but you have to follow them)
Airwiki Admistrators
- Airpaper (writing a paper? This is a tool to share it with the other authors)
- DEI_Subversion_Administration (this is mainly for faculties)
Useful Resources
Writing and Reading
- Howto write a thesis? Suggestions to prepare your thesis (only in Italian for now... translators are welcome!).
- You can access all the papers for which Politecnico has bought a subscription even when you are at home if you enable the [Politecnico proxy]. The instruction page is provided by the nice people of [ASI] in Italian only. For an English version of the page, try to poke them if you find a way to contact them.
Software and programming
- Someone wrote some advice about writing code
- Info about Mathematica
- How to plot using gnuplot in your C/C++ project Gnuplot in cpp

Hardware

- Need to learn how to solder? Check the following links: 1 2 3
- Some useful addresses and links about shops, stores, factories. With some of them we have partnerships for discounts. You can found information here.
Producing videos and publishing them
- Usually, at the end of the project, people tend to produce a video and put it on the web. The best way to do this is to produce a video and then send it to Andrea Bonarini to have it published on the YouTube channel of the AIRLab. Then you can put the link wherever you want, hopefully also in the page of your project on AIRWiki, as done, e.g. in ROBOWII
Miscellanea (uncategorized)
- If you are searching the homepage of a DEI professor (or PhD Student) try this Mozilla plugin
