October 2015 Meeting Information

Technical Overview of Amazon Echo

This month, Barry Burd will present on overview of Amazon Echo. Echo is Amazon's entry in the intelligent voice-enabled assistant market. Unlike Siri or Google Now, Echo isn't mobile. Echo stays plugged into an outlet in your home. But Echo is completely hands-free, so you can talk to Echo the way Captain Picard talks to his ship's computer. In this presentation, Barry will demonstrate the Echo's capabilities and show you how to develop new capabilities for the Echo device. For a preview, click here.
