Flying a drone with twitter, bananas & Web APIs

The web is fast becoming the main means through which people interact with all sorts of technologies. With every new invention, users ask "but can it work with a browser?" With Web APIs, the answer is almost always yes; even to the question "can you fly a drone with a banana?" In this talk, I show the audience the power of APIs and discuss a few cool experimental APIs. I do this by taking them through on a journey through my experience of trying to hack a drone and fly it with a banana. If you're interested in all things web, custom controllers, Bluetooth technology and accelerometer-based controls or if you just like fruit and seeing silly applications of technology, this talk is for you.
