Physical Computing with .NET Core

IoT development was traditionally reserved for the C world. In recent years with the broad adoption of the Raspberry Pi as a viable IoT platform, Python become a first-class citizen in the physical computing world. That being said, with the constant expansion of platforms and devices that support .NET Core, it was only a matter of time until writing C# for IoT devices was a reality. In this session, we will prototype a basic IoT device by using the GPIO pins on a Raspberry Pi running Raspbian with C#. Additionally, we will learn how to communicate with SPI and i2c devices. Roberto Hernández is currently a Developer Extraordinaire at InfernoRed Technology based out of Northern Virginia. He has been architecting and building software solutions using Microsoft and open source technology for the past 18 years. He was awarded a Microsoft MVP award for C# in 2007,2008 and 2010 and an active participant of the Microsoft MVP reConnect program. Originally from the Dominican Republic, he is the proud father of two beautiful daughters that make his life special.
