Speaking Sessions

• Hacking Fitness with the Mean Stack

  The best way to learn technology is to show it in a project. and we're going to use it to implement on harmonious solution to hack your fitness! We're calling this project WaterBug. It uses the MEAN stack along with a Raspberry PI Zero. Learn Angular 2.0, NODE, MongoDB and IOT by exploring this project. If we can get WaterRowers to the event, we will end with a race using the project we build. Learn, have fun, and win prizes.

• Wackcoon Catching a predator with technology (node, IoT, Cog Services, git)

  Do you have backyard critter problems? Tackle it with tech. It this session we will be looking at Node.js through the eyes of a specific application. In this session, we will using Node.js, socket.io, Azure cognitive services vision api, with VSCode to detect “critters” and shoot water at them to keep them away from your pond/garden/flowers/whatever. In addition, we will show you a really cool way to deploy to a raspberry pi using a git hook. Don’t miss this fun session

• Hello? Is it me you’re looking for… (Face and Voice Recognition)

  Are there things you want to secure? A house, a business, and app? Why not do it with face an voice recognition. In this session, we will be using Azure Cognitive services Face and Voice recognition along with a raspberry pi and camera with VSCode to authenticate and verify the person trying to gain access. We will be using Nodejs, running on raspbian that connects to the could. Come join the fun and see how you can add this to your own app.

• Fun with Robots (Session 1)

  Do you like robots? Yea, me too, who doesn’t. In this workshop, we will explore robotics using the ROBOTIS Play 600 robot. You will learn how to assemble them into one of the predefined pets or build your own custom robot creature. At the end we will have a race to see which one is the fastest. This workshop is for ages 6 to 10 and is limited to 20 students due to the number of kits we have to use. So come join the robot revolution and have fun doing it.
