GNURadio and Google Summer of Code

http://code.google.com/soc/:
“Summer of Code 2006 is a program that offers student developers
stipends to create new open source programs or to help currently
established projects. Google will be working with a variety of open
source, free software, and technology-related groups to identify and
fund several hundred projects over a three-month period.”

The GNU Project is registered as a mentor organization, so if there is
any student who would want to do some a work on GNURadio, it probably
wouldn’t be a bad idea to apply. There are already many project
suggestions, but maybe you get lucky…? The deadline is May 8.

Looks like a good program. I’m signed up to mentor, and Matt will
back me up.

In the suggested projects department:

  • Build decent GUI around one or more GNU Radio apps. This could
    include a basic AM/FM/NBFM receiver/scanner.

  • Build decent GUI for an “amateur transceiver”. Including features
    such as Tx/Rx frequency split for talking on repeaters, etc. Could
    optionally handle digital voice, etc. We’ve got most of the guts
    working, but no GUI.

  • RFID

  • Pretty much anything anybody wants to work on, e.g., signal
    processing, new mods/demods, …
