NabAIR v0.01: Control your Nabaztag on your desktop

Tags: , ,

Finally got my NabaztagTag on Friday (nickname: “Nabbey“). What a great toy it is! Saturday I started experimenting with the API from Nabaztag. Today I have build my first public AIR (Apollo) application called NabAIR. A lot of questions will rise, lets start answer a couple of these.


What does it do?
Send text messages to your Nabaztag.

Thats all?
Yes, in this version it is. But i will try to release every day a new version, so much more features will be implemented.

Do I have to own a Nabaztag?For now you do, because you need a serial and a token from your Nabaztag. But in feature releases I hope everybody of the Nabaztag community can use it.

What kind of features?
You’ll see. Keep checking my blog for updates.

Why Adobe AIR?
Because it will install on all platforms.Because it is an easy to use, easy to install, easy to update desktop application.Because I want to compete in the AIR derby contents.Because a lot more…

How to install?
Download
the AIR installer on Adobe Labs, and install de Adobe Integrated Runtime.Download the AIR file NabAIR.air and install, follow the instruction on the screen.Thats it!

If you got more questions, feel free to comment them in my blog. Feature request? Comment on my blog or e-mail me by using the contact section of my blog. Marriage proposals? Keep them for yourselves :).

Also credits to TPDKDesign.net for the great Nabaztag icon set he has made.

Happy Nabaztagging!

Great stuff :-)

I have my serial from my profile at Nabaztag - but where can I find my token? I don’t have the papers that followed my Nab anymore ;-(

Hi skitX, you can find your token in the preferences menu on my.nabaztag.com. There you have a checkbox “I want to receive the services and applications of the Nabazphere on my Nabaztag “. When you click “modify”, you will receive the token. Good luck, and if you got time, send a message to Nabbey :).

Sorry guys… but I’m too noob :)
I’ve downloaded Air and installed it; then I downloaded Nabair and tried to open it but a message appears and tell me the file is invalid! What do I wrong?!
