Speaking at Orlando Code Camp

I am happy to announce I will speaking at the Orlando Code Camp again this year. I will be presenting AI on the Edge, a look into Microsoft’s Azure IoT Edge.

Title

AI on the Edge

Description

The next evolution in cloud computing is a smarter application not in the cloud. As the cloud has continued to evolve, the applications that utilize it have had more and more capabilities of the cloud. This presentation will show how to push logic and machine learning from the cloud to an edge application. Afterward, creating edge applications which utilize the intelligence of the cloud should become effortless.

South Florida Code Camp – Azure IoT Overview

March 2nd 2019, I will be presenting Azure IoT Overview at the South Florida Code Camp in Davie, FL. You can register here – and its FREE. Here is the synopsis of the presentation:

Abstract

Keeping up to date on all the new services and features for an entire cloud portfolio could be a full-time job. In this presentation, we will look at the state of IoT in Microsoft Azure and discuss how the different services work together to implement an enterprise solution. Use this presentation to get an overview of architecture and products so that the next time you are presented with an IoT problem in Azure you know the solution.

 

 

CodeMash 2019 – Alternative Device Interfaces and Machine Learning

I was once again accepted to speak at CodeMash. This year I will be presenting – Alternative Device Interfaces and Machine Learning. If you would like to purchase tickets, they are for sell. Here is what is going to be covered:

Alternative Device Interfaces and Machine Learning

In this presentation, we will look at the how users interface with machines without the use of touch. These different types of interaction have their benefits and pitfalls. To showcase the power of these user interactions we will explore: Voice commands with mobile applications, Speech Recognition, and Computer Vision. After this presentation, attendees will have the knowledge to create applications that can utilize voice, video, and machine learning.

Quicken Loans TechCon 2018

September 20th at Cobb Center in Detroit I will be presenting:

Alternative Device Interfaces and Machine Learning

Abstract

In this presentation, we will look at the how users interface with machines without the use of touch. These different types of interaction have their benefits and pitfalls. To showcase the power of these user interactions we will explore: Voice commands with mobile applications, Speech Recognition, and Computer Vision. After this presentation, attendees will have the knowledge to create applications that can utilize voice, video, and machine learning.

Description

Users use voice (Alexa, Cortana, Google Now) or video as a mode of interaction with applications. More than a fad, this is a natural interface for users and is becoming more and more common with the ever-decreasing size of hardware.

Different types of interaction have their benefits and pitfalls. To showcase the power of these user interactions we will explore: Voice commands with two app types: UWP and Xamarin Forms (iOS and Android). Speech Recognition with Cognitive Services: Verifying the speaker with Speaker Recognition API. Computer Vision with Cognitive Services: Verifying a user with Face API.

By utilizing UWP, Xamarin, and Cognitive services; a device with the ultimate in customization for user interactions will be created. Come and see how!
