living in berlin for 13 years
taught myself to program with HyperCard
first website:1995
DEAF in 1997
worked as artist until 8 years ago
developing frameworks, toolkits and SDKs
how committed am I?
I will not shave till we
have a working prototype
vision
a platform for the internet of things
beautiful scenarios
none of this is currently possible
the problem with clouds
it will get worse
Oracle / IBM / SAP / WTF
how can we change this?
relayr : a cloud for everyone
● open
● promiscuously connected
● secure & standards oriented
getting there
We need agents of change
● people who make stuff
● people who program
● people who want to connect their ideas to
the internet of things
people who build hardware and apps
apps
&
hardware
relayr: enabling developers
● app developers
● hardware developers
● service developers

SDKs and APIs
tutorials
demo apps
access to other APIs (Nest, Withings, etc)
access to rules engine
building a community
opening a store for apps and hardware

our challenge
Questions
is Arduino compatibility essential?
how hard would it be to do programming in C to
get access to a more powerful processor
Questions
Does anyone in the room have experience in
getting new boards onot the Arduino platform
(especially the IDE)?
anyone in the room have experience in C
programming for Arduino?
Would you be willing to help us?
Questions
is our sensor mix exciting enough?
Light & Color / Gyroscope & Accelerometer / Thermometer
/ IR Transmitter / Proximity / Humidity
Questions
if tabs were on the board, is a connector shield
really necessary?
Questions
which Arduino form factors are you using?
