Electronic Card Wall Using RFID, this allows you to use a physical wall, with data mastered in software of your choice. As you move cards around, software updates accordingly.
Theres something very good about a big wall everyone can always see. I think we need a way to print onto regular thick index cards but I've had no luck so it is duplicated effort at the moment.
I was just wondering. How about a giant projector based touch wall. ;) Best of both worlds. This might give some pointers. http://johnnylee.net/projects/wii/
I feel the same. There is something very psychologically satisfying in moving a physical card around on a wall. Thinking managerially, we like stats and we like them to be automated as much as possible.
Perhaps you can keep both? Use the physical wall as the main daily source of information your team work from. Then, assign one person (e.g. the scrum master) to take down the live status and put it into Mingle/Excel at the end of each day.
As long as there is good benefit for the users to have both, then you should find both keep happening alongside each other nicely. Find out what the motivators are for each tool. For example:
Physical wall:
Instant reaction
Quick visual
Physical satisfaction
Online records:
Really really useful statistics
People can be rewarded against the stats in there (e.g. points completed)
My team has struggled with this as well. Electronic data makes analysis and reporting very easy and enables associations of checkins with a backlog item, but its a lot easier to manage cards during the standup. Plus, it's a lot easier to get a "5000 foot view" of the project from looking at a large wall than a small monitor.
No matter what you do you're either either going to have some duplicate effort, or you're going to have a process with some pain points. The goal is to find that balance between the amount of duplicate effort and the value that it affords.
We're still working on finding that balance :) Here's what we do:
During planning, we throw everything into OneNote. Formatting is a bit of a pain, but we're getting better.
After planning, our ScrumMaster enters the data from OneNote into an Excel document for generating our burndown. He then exports this data into TFS, for associating checkins, and does a mail-merge to print each task on a label which is then affixed to a post-it and added to the wall.
During the standup we move the post-its around on the wall.
After the standup, the ScrumMaster updates the Excel doc, generates the burndown update, and sends it around to the team.
As a team member this is pretty low-friction, but it's pretty wasteful of the ScrumMaster's time.
I greatly prefer Cards on the wall for a few simple reasons: Everyone know how to use them. No software training required. Not subject to problems with network, someone's computer needing maintenance etc., even in a blackout, people can still update their cards. This may sound like a joke, but can be nice to have something to do when for whatever reason yu can not use your PC Programmers can freely update the cards while they are booting up/compiling Easy to see them all at a glance Ideal for meeting if your in a scrum environment and having amini meeting aroudn a desk.
I like jotting a note on the card when it's moved with time and mover... for trakcing bugs/features.
We use both, and I can't imagine doing it any other way. Part of it may be that we find our "online card wall" a little too clunky to easily maneuver, but we use the physical cards for getting a quick idea of what developers are working on, letting QA know which cards are ready for testing, and for QA to post what is ready for our weekly demos. The dev area, QA area, and ready to demo areas are three physically distinct places, with the ready to demo being most easily accessed. We also use the physical cards for final scoring.
Could we do all of this online? Yes, would it be quicker, and easier? No way!
We've abandoned using cards after the sprint planning session (they get added to Rally) because it doesn't make sense for us to track in multiple places. Our scrum master is accountable for making sure people enter their tasks appropriately and move them (that's what the daily standup is for). The 5000 foot view is much better in an online tool than a bunch of cards on a wall that can only be categorized two-dimensionally (or maybe three if you stack enough on top of each other).
We use both a card wall and ProjectCards. It's painful for me because I sync the two of them, but it's worth it to have the feedback for the team that is local.
We've bandied about the idea of getting a large touch screen, but I still would rather have physical cards. The other idea I've been toying around with is having a printer which will automatically print out an index card whenever a story is added to ProjectCards.

如果你使用JIRA。 http://wallsync.net 将使您的卡保持同步...
If you use JIRA. http://wallsync.net will keep your cards in sync for you...
电子卡墙 使用 RFID，您可以使用物理墙，并在您选择的软件中掌握数据。 当您移动卡片时，软件会相应更新。

每个人都能看到的大墙有一些非常好的东西。 我认为我们需要一种方法来打印到常规厚索引卡上，但我没有运气，所以目前这是重复的工作。

我只是想知道。 基于巨型投影仪的触摸墙怎么样？ ;)
两全其美。 这可能会给出一些提示。

我也是这么感觉的。 在墙上移动一张实体卡片会带来心理上的极大满足。 从管理角度思考，我们喜欢统计数据，并且希望它们尽可能自动化。
也许你可以两者都保留？ 使用物理墙作为团队工作的主要日常信息来源。 然后，指派一个人（例如 Scrum Master）记录实时状态，并在每天结束时将其放入 Mingle/Excel 中。
只要两者都能为用户带来良好的好处，那么您应该会发现两者一直很好地并存。 找出每种工具的动机是什么。 例如：
实体墙：
在线记录：
希望这有帮助。

我的团队也为此苦苦挣扎。 电子数据使分析和报告变得非常容易，并且可以将签到与待办事项关联起来，而且在站立期间管理卡片要容易得多。 另外，通过观看大墙比观看小监视器更容易获得项目的“5000 英尺视图”。
无论您做什么，您要么会进行一些重复的工作，要么会遇到一些痛点。 目标是在重复工作量与其提供的价值之间找到平衡。
我们仍在努力寻找这种平衡:) 我们所做的就是：
作为团队成员，这是相当低摩擦的，但它非常浪费 ScrumMaster 的时间。

我非常喜欢墙上的卡片，原因如下：
每个人都知道如何使用它们。 无需软件培训。
不受网络问题、电脑需要维护等问题的影响，即使停电，人们仍然可以更新他们的卡。 这可能听起来像个笑话，但当您出于某种原因无法使用电脑时，有事可做是件好事
程序员可以在启动/编译时自由更新卡
轻松一目了然
如果您处于 Scrum 环境中并在办公桌旁举行小型会议，则非常适合召开会议。
我喜欢在卡片随着时间和移动者移动时在卡片上记下注释...用于跟踪错误/功能。

交叉链接您的在线和卡墙。
设置双向复制。 方法留给学生作为练习。
还可以方便地从讨论中捕获白板内容。
Cross link your online and card wall.
Set up two way replication. Method is left as an exercise for the student.
Also handy to catch whiteboard content from discussions.
我们两者都用，我无法想象还有其他方法。 部分原因可能是我们发现我们的“在线卡墙”有点太笨重，无法轻松操作，但我们使用物理卡来快速了解开发人员正在做什么，让 QA 知道哪些卡已准备好进行测试，并让 QA 发布为每周演示准备的内容。 开发区域、QA 区域和准备演示区域是三个物理上不同的地方，准备演示区域最容易访问。 我们还使用实体卡进行最终计分。
我们可以在线完成这一切吗？ 是的，这样会更快、更容易吗？ 决不！

我们在冲刺计划会议后放弃使用卡片（它们被添加到拉力赛中），因为我们在多个地方进行跟踪没有意义。 我们的 Scrum Master 负责确保人们正确输入任务并移动它们（这就是每日站会的目的）。 在在线工具中，5000 英尺的视图比墙上的一堆卡片要好得多，这些卡片只能进行二维分类（或者如果你彼此堆叠足够多的话，可能是三张卡片）。

我们同时使用卡片墙和 ProjectCards。 这对我来说很痛苦，因为我同步了他们两个，但获得本地团队的反馈是值得的。
我们已经讨论了获得大触摸屏的想法，但我仍然宁愿拥有实体卡。 我一直在考虑的另一个想法是拥有一台打印机，每当将故事添加到 ProjectCards 时，它就会自动打印出索引卡。
