Gary Nakanelua has been involved in software engineering and development for 15 years and has a broad background in User Interface (UI) and User Experience (UX) design, full-stack development, and big data implementation. As Principal Architect of Data Science for Blueprint Technologies, Steve Hastings leads the Data Science Group with a laser focus on helping solve customer problems with data.

In this session, we demonstrate how Apache Spark can be used to continuously ingest and analyze real-time telemetry data generated by a consumer mini-drone. This analysis is used by the mini-drone, in real-time, to optimize its flight path for speed improvements through a small obstacle course. Key takeaways include a demonstration of real-time processing of IoT device data using Spark, a practical look at edge analytics, and helpful tips to run a similar experiment.
