What we'll do:
This event will feature the following presentations:
Talk #1: Kicking Your Robot Out Of The Nest
Speaker: Jonathan Parke
Description: Buttons and touchscreens are great but sometimes you just need to send your embedded project out into the world. This talk will show you how to connect your Circuit Python project to the internet and how to build a simple Django project to enable two-way communication with it through a browser.
Lightning talk: Luna, Mochi, and the Graph of Seattle
Speaker: Shoumik Gandre
Description: What Dog Names Reveal About Neighborhood Identity with NetworkX, Wikidata, and Seattle Open Data
Talk #2: Weather or Not : Full Stack Data Science from Cornfield to API
Speaker: Quentin Caudron
Description: Sparse sensors. Vast fields. Thirty thousand square kilometres, eleven variables, one Gaussian Process. This talk is about what it takes to ship that model : the engineering decisions behind Polars, GPyTorch, Zarr, FastAPI, and OpenTelemetry in a production data science system.
