    A real-time operating system is easy.
    The operating system VS supercycle + interrupt: the OS starts and wins.
    Quick start from the available components (STM32Nucleo).
    Opportunities out of the box: shell, timers, processes, “smart” sleep mode, full debugging with GDB.

    - “The special magic of LED strips”

    Alexey will tell about the project with which he took part in RedBull Flugtag:

    1) general story about flugtag - how, why why;
    2) how we developed the concept - design vs. functional vs. security;
    3) construction - materials, approaches, processes;
    4) testing (more precisely, its absence);
    5) the flight itself :)

    - “Light tablets: from crafts to business”
    Valery Kondakov. The

    birth of ideas, investments and the search for suppliers, the formation of production, market entry. How the approach to the product changed, how the product itself changed.

    - ““ Do not forget to water the flowers ”We combine IoT and augmented reality”
    Artem Denisov We

    combine augmented reality, the Internet of things and a smartphone. Using the example of the “Fields of Me” device, the speaker will show how to connect a phone, sensors of the Internet of Things (for receiving data) and applications of augmented reality (for interpreting the obtained data).

    - “How to dive Roguelike-world using two LEDs and a pair of buttons”
    Emil Sataev

    Few people know that the progenitors of modern RPGs were bagels. Games that have a rather interesting gameplay and a good study of the world were often completely deprived of graphics, and information about the world and the player’s state was presented as text or symbols (which, of course, did not diminish interest in the game). Using the example of his DIY-portable game console, the speaker will demonstrate how to minimize the interaction interface with the player to two LEDs and two buttons, but at the same time preserve the fundamentals of the game mechanics, the ability to level the character.

    - “Internet where it is not”
    Kirill Kuznetsov

    Kirill will share information about stationary communication on the basis of 3G-LTE: ways to achieve normal performance, common problems and how to solve them. And also about the configuration of the equipment, the possibilities of improvement on their own and alternative ways of assembling the equipment.

    - “Pros - friends or enemies?”
    Igor Autushenko The

    report will be devoted to C ++ as the basis of Arduino: let's talk about the main differences from C, syntactic sugar and meanings, default parameters and much more. Also, the report will highlight the overlapping functions, classes, the importance of the designer, the types of templates.
