40-minute presentation with Brent Bisaillion

Using the Thalmic Labs Myo to interact with the world

12:00pm – 12:15pm EST Sunday 14 Sep 2014

We’ve all become accustomed to gestural user interfaces on our phones and tablets, thanks to Apple’s 2007 introduction of what was to become its wildly popular iPhone. But gestural user interfaces aren't confined to touch screens. There's a whole world of interaction that gestures open up, and the local heroes at Thalmic Labs are showing the way with the Myo product.

Brent will incorporate a certain amount of hand-waving into his presentation — which in this case is a great thing as he’ll be talking about the Myo, showing what it’s capable of, and explaining how the team at Thalmic redefining how we interact with technology.
