Topic:
.Net and Windows 10 on the Raspberry Pi
The Internet of Things (IoT) is a big deal lately. There are a plethora of devices and data stores ready to send and receive your information. From a 8 MHz PIC microcontroller to a 16 MHz Arduino to a NetDuino sporting a 32 bit 168 Mhz processor there is no shortage of hardware possibilities. In this talk we'll take a short tour of the available options and dig into one of the popular platforms for building IoT solutions, the Raspberry Pi. We'll look at how to build software for the device and explore how Windows 10 can be used to leverage everyone's favorite programming paradigm, .Net and XAML built on Microsoft's Universal app infrastructure.
