Description:

JavaScript has abilities far beyond those you see within the confines of the browser. It has crept into IoT devices far and wide. Patrick will provide an overview of what's possible with recent tech, including Arduinos, Particle Cores (previously known as Spark Core), Tessel, controlling Android via on{X}, voice recognition, and AI using Wit.ai. Patrick will also cover exciting new input methods like the Leap Motion controller and Myo Armband, Pebble watch, and more. He'll show a few demos from his O'Reilly course "Introduction to IoT Programming with JavaScript" along with some newer experiments.
