Voxxed Days Ticino

While all Android phones embed a camera and smartphones are significantly eroding the low-segment market share of traditional cameras, there are still people who prefer the traditional equipment; perhaps, sometimes, remotely controlled by a smartphone. The purpose of this speech, of course, is not discussing about photographic tools, but rather to illustrate the different technologies used to interface an Android smartphone to a WiFi-capable camera body, such as SSDP (Simple Service Discovery Protocol), REST and image streaming. The speaker will use the Sony Camera API as a real-world example, also taking care of practices such as a good design to foster Separation Presentation, modularity and testing. As the reader is probably suspecting, this will be a hands-on talk.
