Once upon a time, Minecraft: Pocket Edition had no clouds and no sun. It had no slimes and no melons. You may find this hard to believe, pocket crafters of the past year. But at the beginning, Pocket Edition had the most basic of gameplay features, forged by a single coder named Aron, who spun up the first build in less than three months for an E3 demo in 2011. Crafting came to Pocket almost a year later with a new Minecraft Advanced Touch Technology Interface System (MATTIS), named after Mattis Grahm, one of Mojang’s pixel wizards. And then many… Continue reading Celebrating the Past and Future of Minecraft: Pocket Edition

The Idea
With the recent success of depth cameras such as Kinect, gesture and posture recognition has become easier. Using depth sensors, the 3D locations of body-joints can be reliably extracted to used with any machine learning framework, specific gestures or posture can be modelled and inferred. Real world applications in Virtual Reality can be used for Yoga, Ballet training, Golf, anything related to activity recognition and proper postures. I also see application of it in the Architectural, Engineering, Construction and Manufacturing Industry by sending depth sensor data to the cloud to identify correct configurations. It could be used for quality control, anomaly detection and part recognition
This is a proof of concept to detect pose “Y”, “M”, “C” , “A” and stream the result back to the browser.

Kinect
Kinect is an awesome input device for our Internet of Things world. It is a motion sensing input device that has RGB camera, depth sensor, multi-array microphone. I’m currently using it as a motion capture device viewable in Virtual Reality. I bought this adaptor so I can use it on a windows 10 device, Now I can plug it into a USB port.

This is where I believe the strength of Azure services in IoT space. Being able to collect telemetry data, pass to streaming analytics, split the data into outputs.
- Gathering Training Data to feed your machine learning model
- With captured telemetry data, use it to call a predictive analytics function and transform the output streaming data.
When I realized this, now I see what Internet of Things is all about. It’s not just a building a device, It’s adding the Smarts to it. The Predictive Analytics part, it’s the real-time data processing and the flexibility of the cloud. Something clicked, MIND-BLOWN.

It all began five years ago, as an experiment, whether it is possible to create a development environment in the browser with JavaScript, HTML and CSS. Today it has become an expandable, intelligent editor that runs on Mac OS X, Linux and Windows. Visual Studio Code is largely implemented in JavaScript / TypeScript and uses Node.js, Electron, and over 100 open source components. Visual Studio Code has also been an open source project since last November. It has a trip with some direction changes behind it. At the same time, Microsoft has also changed constantly. In this session, Erich Gamma describes the most important stages and directional changes of the journey, starting with the experiment up to version 1.0 of Visual Studio Code.
Erich Gamma:
Erich Gamma is a Microsoft Distinguished Engineer. He works with his team in Zurich on Visual Studio Code. Previously he worked for IBM and he was one of the fathers of Eclipse and was leading the Eclipse Java development tools. Erich is also a member of the Gang of Four, which is known for its classical book, “Design Patterns – Elements of Reusable Object-Oriented Software.”
