Aberdeen Python User Group 11 June 2025

Our latest APUG session at our new premises at The Soap Factory, 111 Gallowgate, Aberdeen.

"Embracing the Future with Project Aria Glasses" - Dr. Carlos Moreno-Garcia, Associate Professor, RGU

Description: In this talk, Carlos Moreno-García will present his current and future work in collaboration with Project Aria (Meta), which developed state-of-the-art glasses for data acquisition towards enhancement of VR, AR, imaging and robotics. 

Attendees will have a unique opportunity to see these devices in action and think about ways to use the data collected to produce Python Applications for real-life applications.

Bio: If you don’t already have Python set up, we can help you with that too. Coding in pairs or small groups (especially mixing beginner and more experiences coders) is strongly encouraged, though you can also code solo.

----------------------

This session will take place in our new premises, which is still a work in progress. That means that our disability access is not what we want it to be. If you are uncomfortable, or unable to use stairs, please book an online ticket for the Zoom session. We are working to improve this but it will take a few months.

This event is orgnanised by a charity - Code The City. We suggest a small donation to help with charity admin costs, but if this is a barrier please just change the ticket price to what you can afford.

We're now back to running physical events backed up with an online option.

If you select a physical ticket and it happens that we can not meet physically you will have to attend the Zoom session.

Those attending the physical space meetup should attend at 6pm for pizza and drinks. The coding session (for online attendees) will be from 6.30pm. Doors will be locked from 6.30pm.

**If tickets are sold out please do not attend as you will be refused entry without a ticket. **

Our booking system is provided by Tito. Their platform is integrated with payment processing by Stripe
