Topic: Google Glass is an Android device (almost) We will cover wearable computing and functional fashion. Where it has been and where it is going. Then, we will talk about the experience of picking up Glass (very different). What it is like to be in the Glass Explorer community. We will have some fun playing with Glass as the audience is asked to issue command and see the response from Glass live (this is very interesting as Glass is still in beta) We end with how to develop using the Mirror API and how to attach adb (debugger) and do native Android development on Glass. We will review my Nike+ Glassware project. Demo:: Google Glass attached to Eclipse adb Devices: Nike+ Fuelband Jawbone Up Fitbit Review of functional fashion.

Fleksy is a revolutionary technology, which makes typing text on a touch-screen easy. Ever dream of an auto-correct system powerful enough to work even when you don’t look at the screen? Enter, Fleksy. Used today by thousands of blind and visually impaired users to type faster and easier than many sighted people, Fleksy is revolutionizes the way people think about mobile devices and to challenge the traditional barriers in touch-screen typing for everyone. Featuring Syntellia’s patent pending technologies, Fleksy uses the familiar QWERTY layout, coupled with probably the most powerful text prediction engine out there. Tap typing, re-invented. We will discuss the tech behind Fleksy and how to integrate it into your projects. To participate in the hands-on part of the session, have Xcode installed and working on your Mac/OSX laptop. You can also download the Fleksy SDK at TBD.
