Making commercial smart devices for IoT projects

Abstract: What's involved when making commercial smart devices for IoT projects? More that you might realize! Coming up with the idea, turning it into a viable product and manufacturing, all of these present challenges. Irrelevant to the hobbyist, a surprising number of Industry Association licensing requirements are mandatory for a company.

Speakers: Stewart Dibbs and Richard Tomkins from PiXCL Automation Technologies (http://pixcl.com/) will present an overview of their Decaf USB Sensor/Control/Display product range, PiXCL's Kickstarter campaign launch status, and an overview of the patent and IP licensing issues that have been examined, including costs.

Agenda:

Parking: Spiria is located in a church in the heart of Hull. QC. The location features a number of parking spots (on the left side of the building) which are opened to the attendees. It is also possible to park for free in the street.
