This document discusses Genymotion, a fast Android emulator. It begins with an introduction by Adrian Mikeliunas on enterprise Android development. It then discusses the limitations of Android's default emulator (AVD), including slow speeds and lack of Google Play store. Genymotion is presented as an alternative that is much faster than AVD and has pre-configured devices with hardware emulation and access to Google Play. The document provides instructions on installing Genymotion, which involves first installing Oracle's VirtualBox and then downloading and launching Genymotion to access pre-built emulator images. It concludes with leaving time for questions.
