Test audio with Calle in Sweden Kingsley and Robert at Stanford.

All three participants were in the Atmosphere world as well as the Talker environment. We were able to control the heart rate using the buttons in the Controls. The message was received by each of the participants so that the correct values were displayed on the screen.

The audio quality from Calle was inconsistent, often we would only hear bits and pieces or Calle could only hear parts of our sentences. This is an improvement over the previous time, when we only heard static coming from Calle, though the quality is still not acceptable.

Another issue was that Calle was unable to use any of the functions in atmosphere (he could not move around or access the animations). He was able to move his mouse around, but could not click on anything. But when he launched the world without any other participants, Calle was able to use all the functions. So it seems the computer was overly burdened when we had three people in the same world. It is unclear whether the limitation is the machine (memory, CPU) or the network (0.5 Mbps).
