Brandon was presenting (also) in person last year at our meetup

It's difficult to decode the sentiment of a text message: Is it happy? Is it angry?

After receiving an onslaught of texts one day, Brandon created a solution using an IoT light bulb: Red light for angry texts and Green light for happy texts! Join me as we review its AI + serverless architecture to learn how!

This talk leverages Xamarin + IoT + Serverless apps that change the color of a Philips Hue lightbulb based on the sentiment of your text messages. It combines Twilio APIs, Azure Functions, Microsoft Cognitive Services, SignalR, a Xamarin mobile app and a Philips Hue Light!
