TALKS:

TALK 1 : "Using Python to bring a physical game to the Internet" by Jeffrey Roe

Description:
(15 mins) The talk will outline how a LED game got Jeffrey's living room onto the internet for all to play it. The project mixture Raspberry Pi, Arduino, LED display array and an IoT smart plug all in one. The game uses remote.tv to allow the player to remotely control all the buttons of this fun arcade-style LED game. The game has the user trying to kill all the red dots in order to stay alive and not see hot pink.
