82. spotkanie Wroc.NET

Zapraszamy na 82. spotkanie Wrocławskiej Grupy .NET. Tym razem mamy dla was następujący temat (w języku angielskim):

The Next Generation of Software: Leveraging Natural User Interface Technology to Deliver Improved User Experience

We are well into the new age of software focused on the Natural User Experience (NUI). NUI applications manifest in “new” platforms and developer technologies such as Windows 10, Surface Hub, & Hololens.

But, NUI is more than just multi-touch. NUI is also gesture-based interfaces using the Kinect tracking full body movement, facial expressions, and voice recognition with precision. NUI is demographic profiling and facial recognition. NUI is interactive Holograms. And within the decade NUI will be Neural based interfaces (both conscience and non-conscience).

This demo focused session will take an amusing look at the past and take an impressive look at some of the best software being built today and into the immediate future that leverages the Natural User Interface.

This session will demonstrate how NUI enabled applications can be used in multiple vertical industries to improve the communication, education, collaboration, and experience overall across the software continuum.

Our speakers:

Tim Huckaby is an industry luminary focused on Engaging User Experiences, User Interaction Design and the Natural User Interface (NUI) as applied with software in systems of all industries. Mr. Huckaby’s expertise encompasses NUI as Touch, Gesture, Voice, Neural and other futuristic interfaces as applied by a number of compelling software technologies on many software and hardware platforms on a broad spectrum of devices. Mr. Huckaby has been called a “Pioneer of the Smart Client Revolution” by the press. Mr. Huckaby’s uncanny prediction of locally installed, native application popularity (i.e.: Apps) became true. This prediction of The Smart Client Revolution was the predecessor to the app store phenomena we see today where applications are downloaded from an application store and installed natively on the device as contrasted to using web applications in a browser.

Dan Hanan is the Senior Director of Engineering at InterKnowlogy, where he has worked since 2005. Some of his work in this capacity is focused on establishing standards and a common direction in software architecture, design, and implementation which provide a basis for the InterKnowlogy engineers to produce quality, robust, and efficient software. He is passionate about the proper use of tools and procedures that create an environment of consistency where developers can thrive. Dan graduated from Stanford University with a BS in Computer Science, and has 25 years of experience building software. He has grown through various senior and lead software engineer positions, and continues to lead teams that create compelling solutions using primarily Microsoft technologies such as WPF, XAML, C#, WCF, SQL, Azure, Windows 8 and 10.
