Brillo and Weave: A First Look At Google I/O 2015, Google announced it would be launching projects based around the Internet of Things. This January at the Ubiquity Developers Summit people got the first chance to learn about Weave, a communications protocol, and Brillo, an embedded operating system. At this presentation, we'll learn about how each of these projects work, why Google has launched them, and why you (as a manufacturer, developer, and consumer) should care. We'll even have a first look at some hardware and code using Brillo and Weave.

.Lightning Talk: Google Vision API Google has recently released the Google Vision API, allowing you to tap into Google's neural network to analyze your photos. The API provides a quick, network based, way to identify brand logos, landmarks, objects, facial features, facial reactions, and possibly NSFW images. If you've used Google Photos, you're already using similar technology, but now you can easily integrate it into your own project with just a few lines. We'll see how.
