Getting Developers hooked on your API by Nicolas Garnier at Codemotion DubaiCodemotion Dubai
Hypermedia, REST, SOAP... It's not a matter of 'why' anymore but rather of 'how'. Still, once your API is all set up, getting developers to use it is a real challenge. A challenge you should be ready to rise to as your API can eventually be its own channel for product adoption. How to make sure developers know about your API, that they use it efficiently and finally, that they love using it.
Many API programs get launched without a clear understanding as to WHY the API should exist. Rather, many are focused on WHAT the API consists of and HOW it should be targeted, implemented and leveraged. This presentation focuses on establishing the need for a clear WHY proposition behind the decision. The HOW and then WHAT will follow from that.
This presentation also uses the history of the Netflix API to demonstrate the power, utility and importance of knowing WHY you are building an API.

概要:リソース効率に優れた特徴点マッチングのための軽量なアーキテクチャ「XFeat(Accelerated Features)」を提案します。手法は、局所的な特徴点の検出、抽出、マッチングのための畳み込みニューラルネットワークの基本的な設計を再検討します。特に、リソースが限られたデバイス向けに迅速かつ堅牢なアルゴリズムが必要とされるため、解像度を可能な限り高く保ちながら、ネットワークのチャネル数を制限します。さらに、スパース下でのマッチングを選択できる設計となっており、ナビゲーションやARなどのアプリケーションに適しています。XFeatは、高速かつ同等以上の精度を実現し、一般的なラップトップのCPU上でリアルタイムで動作します。
セル生産方式におけるロボットの活用には様々な問題があるが,その一つとして 3 体以上の物体の組み立てが挙げられる.一般に,複数物体を同時に組み立てる際は,対象の部品をそれぞれロボットアームまたは治具でそれぞれ独立に保持することで組み立てを遂行すると考えられる.ただし,この方法ではロボットアームや治具を部品数と同じ数だけ必要とし,部品数が多いほどコスト面や設置スペースの関係で無駄が多くなる.この課題に対して音𣷓らは組み立て対象物に働く接触力等の解析により,治具等で固定されていない対象物が組み立て作業中に運動しにくい状態となる条件を求めた.すなわち,環境中の非把持対象物のロバスト性を考慮して,組み立て作業条件を検討している.本研究ではこの方策に基づいて,複数物体の組み立て作業を単腕マニピュレータで実行することを目的とする.このとき,対象物のロバスト性を考慮することで,仮組状態の複数物体を同時に扱う手法を提案する.作業対象としてパイプジョイントの組み立てを挙げ,簡易な道具を用いることで単腕マニピュレータで複数物体を同時に把持できることを示す.さらに,作業成功率の向上のために RGB-D カメラを用いた物体の位置検出に基づくロボット制御及び動作計画を実装する.
This paper discusses assembly operations using a single manipulator and a parallel gripper to simultaneously
grasp multiple objects and hold the group of temporarily assembled objects. Multiple robots and jigs generally operate
assembly tasks by constraining the target objects mechanically or geometrically to prevent them from moving. It is
necessary to analyze the physical interaction between the objects for such constraints to achieve the tasks with a single
gripper. In this paper, we focus on assembling pipe joints as an example and discuss constraining the motion of the
objects. Our demonstration shows that a simple tool can facilitate holding multiple objects with a single gripper.
Hi everyone. Thank you for this wonderful opportunity.
I know that for a long time in Japan we’ve been perceived as just a online payment service for buying something internationally and it is true that our global footprint is one of the key strength, but in reality we are two things: for consumers we are a digital wallet optimized for online & mobile experiences allowing them to transact safely & securely with the convenience of using just an ID and Password to shop for things.
For merchants, as we have been promoting this past year here in Japan is our ability to help small and medium businesses or SMBs, and startups to go from not only “zero to one” but to millions through our smb friendly products and services. I wont go into the details but these are our core values and it is exactly why we are considered to be the global standard in e-commerce with 162 Million people and businesses around the world are using PayPal to not only pay but to accept payments.
But before we go any further I would like to start from the very first step on who we are and what we do best.

PayPal is a silicon valley tech company, in the business for 15 years
Available in 203 markets worldwide helping 162 million people and businesses accept and make payments in more than 100 currencies and hold balance in 26 currencies
PayPal’s net Total Payment Volume for 2014 was $228 billion, up 27% year over year representing approximately $624 million in payments every day.
PayPal processed $46 billion in mobile payment volume in 2014, up 68% over 2013
More than 20% of the payments made with PayPal in 2014 were mobile
