Building your own RC Car with Raspberry PiJeff Prestes
In this presentation we talk about basic concepts of Internet of Things, Java for Embedded, Android, Raspberry Pi and a practical workshop how to create your own IoT RC Car - Brasilino - and rent it.
This is a fun one! Learn how to hack up robots you can buy at a local toy store. You’ll see the methods used to take the video stream out of the robot and turn it into a format Flash likes. You’ll get the lowdown on how to send API commands to control the bot. We’ll show you how to connect it to alternative controllers and use ActionScript for some simple color detection on the video stream.

Scratching the itch, making Scratch for the Raspberry PieESUG
Title: Scratching the itch, making Scratch for the Raspberry Pie
Speaker: Tim Rowledge
Fri, August 22, 12:00pm – 12:30pm
Abstract: Scratch was originally written in a Squeak 2.8 era image. Much has changed since then and to make the Raspberry Pi run Scratch as well as possible we have ported the code forward to a 4.5 image so it can run on a StackVM; and soon a Cog VM. A substantial amount of Smalltalk code has had to be rewritten to do this and yet we have to maintain complete compatibility with the original system to avoid overloading the teachers that use it in their classes. A new branch of Cog for the ARM cpu is being written as well.
Bio: Tim Rowledge has almost 30 years of Smalltalk experience, and almost as much with ARM. Somehow the two have always gone together.
Tech Talk: Using R to Understand the Internet of Things (IoT)
Carl Howe, Director of Education, RStudio
Today’s home Internet of Things devices—solar panels, smart power meters, security cameras, and weather stations— are a maze of custom hardware, real-time operating systems, and proprietary smartphone apps. Worse, the costs for commercial monitoring services and devices needed to understand their operation can add up to big monthly bills.
Fortunately, most of these devices can be easily understood using simple R programs and a commodity software defined radio (SDR) dongle running on a cheap Raspberry Pi. In this Tech Talk, Carl will demonstrate a simple home monitoring solution built using those tools and illustrate how R can be used for these real-time applications. The talk will conclude by describing the R packages and programming techniques needed to interact with real-time devices and how these differ from traditional R programs.
The Raspberry Pi is a small, low-cost ARM-based PC. Instead of using big, heavyweight, x86 servers, could you build an infrastructure cloud using lots and lots of Raspberry Pis? This lightning talk explores the possibility.
PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.
Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
7. What is a robot?
A robot is a mechanical or virtual artificial agent, usually an electro-mechanical
machine that is guided by a computer program or electronic circuitry. Robots can
be autonomous or semi-autonomous and range from humanoids such
as Honda's Advanced Step in Innovative Mobility (ASIMO) and TOSY's TOSY Ping Pong
Playing Robot (TOPIO) to industrial robots, collectively programmed swarm robots, and
even microscopic nano robots.
