SUMMARY:VR Onramp Session #1 Mixed Reality Development - Dwight Goins\, Dave Noderer\, Natalie Perez
DESCRIPTION:Bring your laptop\, computer\, VR or MR device\, our goal is for you to be able to finish loading the basics\, get something simple running and gain an understanding of some of the tools and libraries used to create compelling Mixed Reality applications. HP\, Acer and Dell are just starting to deliver ~ $300 developer kits and of course there is HoloLens all of which use the Microsoft Holographic system. \nWe hope that most people will come with most of the setup completed: https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/mixed-reality/install_the_tools \nCheck out the Microsoft Store for some of the new Mixed Reality sets: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/store/b/virtualreality?icid=CNavVirtualReality \nCourse outline:\nIntroduction (30 min)\nWhat is AR/MR/VR\nDifferences between devices\nWhat can you do with it\nWhat is an MR app\nTools To Develop\nOpportunities in AR/MR/VR\nEnvironment Setup (1.5 hours)\nBring your laptop or computer\nWe will tell you ahead of time what to load\nLab to help you get set up\nSimple app\nToolkits (1.5 hours)\nDemo of Vuforia\, MR Toolkit\, ARToolkit (Apple)\, OpenAR\, OpenCV) – 30 min\nLab (Choose lab from Vuforia\, MR Toolkit\, OpenCV) (1 hr)\nShow and Tell ( 30 min )\nSummary (15 min)\nWhat next?\nAdvanced courses\nSpeakers: \nDwight Goins\, Dave Noderer\, Natalie Perez \nDwight Goins is the Chief Algorithms Officer (CAO)  and Lead Emerging Experiences Consultant at THOTH Speed Engineers located in Coral Springs\, FL. Dwight spends most of his time leading his team to implement Connected Systems and solutions using Agile methodologies with Fortune 500 clients such as AIG\, JM Family\, and Equinix. In his night life\, he leads a team of developers creating medical based applications for Medical Cyber World\, Inc. using unique implementations with IoT devices such as the Kinect for Windows\, Raspberry Pi\, Microsoft Band and Machine Learning. He is an avid Linux User (Gentoo being his favorite flavor)\, Open source contributor\, as well as an InfoSec Secure Coding Instructor.

This broad development has paralleled in time the rapid development of high-speed electronic digital computers\, microelectronics and integrated circuit fabrication technologies. An ever-increasing assortment of integrated circuits specifically tailored to perform common DSP functions is available to the design engineer as system building blocks or parts-in-trade. DSP methodologies have been applied to consumer electronics\, communications\, automotive electronics\, instrumentation\, medical electronics\, tomography and acoustic imaging\, cartography\, seismology\, speech recognition\, robotics and other fields. In his talk\, Dr. Mitra will provide a brief overview of the initial developments in DSP and review some of the important advances made during the nearly-60-year period of its growth\, and will describe a number of its key applications. He will conclude with speculation on DSP’s future trends and directions.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn collaboration with the following colleges and schools\, institutes and programs:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\nLight refreshments will be provided.\nParking Information\nParking is available at the Ponce de Leon and the Pavia garages.

SUMMARY:Young Professional Entrepreneur’s Public Speaking Club (Toastmasters)
DESCRIPTION:AGENDA\n6:30PM – PROFESSIONAL NETWORKING\n7:00PM – Doors Close and Toastmaster’s Meeting Begins\n8:00PM – Toastmaster’s Meeting Concludes\n \nWhy is Public Speaking Linked to Being Successful?\nWorth magazine’s Power 100\, an annual list of the 100 most powerful people in global finance\, features men and women from around the globe who work in a range of professions from banking to hedge funds to politics and punditry. Some of them exercise power through their investing\, others through regulatory authority\, others by the power of persuasion. But they all have one thing in common: They use public speaking to amass\, solidify and extend their power\, and then get things done. If you really listen to how they do it\, you can glean several principles to help you do the same.\nTHIS IS WHERE LEADERS ARE MADE\nThe world needs leaders. Leaders head families\, coach teams\, run businesses and mentor others. These leaders must not only accomplish\, they must communicate. By regularly giving speeches\, gaining feedback\, leading teams and guiding others to achieve their goals in a supportive atmosphere\, leaders emerge from the Toastmasters program. Every Toastmasters journey begins with a single speech. During their journey\, they learn to tell their stories. They listen and answer. They plan and lead. They give feedback—and accept it. Through our community of learners\, they find their path to leadership.

SUMMARY:Developing conversational apps and Implementing Fingerprint Authentication
DESCRIPTION:This month\, Mir Majeed will be covering how we can use LUIS to develop conversational apps with Xamarin and David Silverlight will be showing how to add the ability for users to login to Xamarin.Forms apps using their Fingerprint.  \nDeveloping Conversational Apps with LUIS  \nMir Majeed will show us how to develop engaging voice and text-based conversational mobile apps with Xamarin using Microsoft LUIS and Google API.AI. This session will provide a good introduction of Microsoft Luis\, Google API.AI and how to use these technologies in your mobile apps. \nAdding Fingerprint Authentication to Xamarin.Forms apps  \nDavid Silverlight is going to show us how we can add the ability for users to login to our applications using their fingerprint.  He will walk us through the process of adding this functionality to both iOS and Android applications as we use TouchID to implement fingerprint authentication in Xamarin.Forms. The various steps for implementation will be covered\, including showing how we can test this functionality in each platform’s emulators.

SUMMARY:The New Era Of Artificial Intelligence
DESCRIPTION:After billions of dollars and decades of research\, we are entering a new era of robotics and conscious artificial intelligence. A.I. is poised to transform our society as did the internet years ago. We are already using A.I. when we use speech recognition software\, Google Translate\, and many other apps and services. Nearly all of the largest software and social media companies are working towards integrating some form of A.I. into their product and service\, including Facebook\, Twitter\, and Microsoft. Today\, we have Robotic helpers\, driverless cars\, problem-solving A.Is\, and we’re just getting started. Machine Intelligence has the potential to usher in a new age of technology like we’ve never seen before that will have a tremendous impact on job markets\, the economy\, and our everyday lives.\nIn this discussion\, we’ll look at the technological changes that are sweeping through our world and the future effects that A.I can have on our economy and our personal lives. The good and also the dangers of A.I. that we’ll need to face. Join us for a deep learning discussion and ask yourself: Are you ready for this new era of machine intelligence?\nLearn More & Register

SUMMARY:The New Era Of Artificial Intelligence
DESCRIPTION:After billions of dollars and decades of research\, we are entering a new era of robotics and conscious artificial intelligence. A.I. is poised to transform our society as did the internet years ago. We are already using A.I. when we use speech recognition software\, Google Translate\, and many other apps and services. Nearly all of the largest software and social media companies are working towards integrating some form of A.I. into their product and service\, including Facebook\, Twitter\, and Microsoft. Today\, we have Robotic helpers\, driverless cars\, problem-solving A.Is\, and we’re just getting started. Machine Intelligence has the potential to usher in a new age of technology like we’ve never seen before that will have a tremendous impact on job markets\, the economy\, and our everyday lives.\nIn this discussion\, we’ll look at the technological changes that are sweeping through our world and the future effects that A.I can have on our economy and our personal lives. The good and also the dangers of A.I. that we’ll need to face. Join us for a deep learning discussion and ask yourself: Are you ready for this new era of machine intelligence?\nLearn More & Register
