Santa Cruz PyLadies Speaker Night: Vicky Tuite

Every four weeks, PyLadies will have a speaker from the community teach us something interesting and/or talk about the awesome stuff they're working on!

The meetup will start at 6, with some snacks and beverages, and the talk(s) will start around 6:30.

This week, Vicky Tuite, Engineering Manager at EVAOS, will talk about her electric vehicle logging system that is comprised of two major parts:

1. A $30 microprocessor board with some added components, wifi, additional power, battery backup and CAN bus transceivers
2. A web accessible Django App to collect and retrieve the data.

The microprocessor board code is written using the Arduino IDE, which is C/C++ but it is similar enough to Python to be understandable.
