There were three topics from speakers and two lightning talks from the attendees.
*Micropython on ESP32 - Pravin Raghul* Micro python is both space and compute optimized equivalent of cpython interpreter that can be used in embedded devices. Micro Python aims to bridge the gap for providing python programmability to embedded devices which are typically resource constrained. https://micropython.org/ ESP32 is a micro controller board. https://www.espressif.com/en/products/socs/esp32 Speaker used minicom program to login to the ESP board. Adafruit ampy is used to execute python modules on ESP32 Precompiling python module with mpy-cross tool will help in boosting performance while lowering footprint in RAM of the device. Some of the other techniques to achieve perf boost by use of native code emitter, viper code emitter were explained. *Tiny MLOPs - Soham Chatterjee* Challenges in running ML at edge devices in IOT environment. How things are done TinyML world compared to ML at datacenter servers MLOPS stands for Machine Learning + Operations which deals with the discipline of deploying, monitoring and maintaining ML pipelines in edge devices. *OpenCV introduction: Vijay Kumar* GUI Testing automation with OpenCV How to identify elements from screen using openCV framework. OCR is used to identify the captions on the UI elements. Demo of automated testing of graphical calculator app. Problems faced in OCR library for reading single characters as OCR softwares are usually programmed to read large texts *API testing with jmeter - Thangaselvi* Talked about Apache Jmeter, Pros and Cons of using this tool for performance testing Demoed accessing google.com page with Jmeter Jmeter tool has options to add pre-processor and post processor steps to perform certain useful functions https://www.opensourceforu.com/2021/08/test-your-software-with-jmeter/ *Kafka introduction- Ibrahim Sha* What is kafka, kafka topic, producer, consumer and broker. How kafka is analogous to rabbitmq and celery framework in python. Python library used for kafka message processing. Showed some sample program that is processing kafka messages from a topic. Best, Saravanan.
