Let’s fly a drone with twitter, a banana and Web APIs. If you’re interested in all things web, custom controllers, Bluetooth technology and accelerometer-based controls or if you just like fruit and seeing silly applications of technology, then this talk is for you.

Flying a drone with twitter, bananas, and JavaScript.

The web is fast becoming the main means through which people interact with all sorts of technologies. With every new invention, users ask “but can it work with a browser?” With Web APIs, the answer is almost always yes; even to the question “can you fly a drone with a banana?”

In this talk, I show the audience the power of APIs and discuss a few cool experimental APIs. I do this by taking them on a journey through my experience of trying to hack a drone and flying it with a banana.

If you’re interested in all things web, custom controllers, Bluetooth technology and accelerometer-based controls or if you just like fruit and seeing silly applications of technology, then this talk is for you.
