OpenIoT & ELC 2016

Matt Long describes an unusual journey through a decade of research and experimentation that culminates with an unexpected and unusual experiment in real-time IoT from the remote and hostile environment of the upper atmosphere, backed with 47 inspired volunteers. Matt tells the story of The Pegasus Mission's challenges delivering a unique, real-time, and interactive IoT experience from the edge of space to thousands of users. He discusses new architecture concepts for IoT using embedded Linux and Microsoft Azure that provides a powerful and simple interface that is extreme low latency, high throughput, linearly scalable, and economical using experimental technology. Matt Long will provide you the context of the experiment, lessons learned, and review the architecture behind the history making flight of Pegasus II.
