Session descriptions for Monday

Improving texture support in Qt Quick

Giuseppe D'Angelo

Qt Quick offers an extremely limited support for using non-RGB(A) textures, such as compressed texture formats and/or prebaked atlases. See the discussion and the subtasks of https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-59855 for a discussion.

Pretty Printing With Qt-Creator

Stéphane Petithomme

The Presentation is about So-ADE Debugger, a Qt-Creator plugin extension that allows to create custom Pretty Printer in few click for Qt-Creator. It comes with a few hundreds pre-configured Pretty Printers (Boost Library, Qt, Library, Std Library, Verific Library,.. ). During the session you will learn how to customize existing Pretty Printers and create you own one to greatly improve your productivity. I am very interested about feed back and comment to further improve the plugin, which will be make open source by the conference.

Session descriptions for Tuesday

BOF Qt OpcUa

Frank Meerkötter

A quick get together for people interested in OPC UA. I'd like to hear about your use-cases for Qt OPC UA. I'd also like to discuss the pros/cons of having a Qt-based implementation at all. Is there mostly interest in a C++ API? What about a QML API? What parts of OPC UA are used in the field? How to get the existing Qt OpcUa based code base off the ground? Is the approach of wrapping an existing implementation sane? Do we wrap the right implementation? Would it be a way forward to build on top of open62541?

Qt CoAP protocol

Adrien Leravat

We are contributing a CoAP protocol module for Qt, and would like to hear your inputs regarding current implementation and API. CoAP is a protocol similar to HTTP used in IoT contexts. I will explain a few use case, current status of contribution, and what's to be expected next. We can then have a look at the API and how it is designed to discuss openly these aspects.

Open-source AR with Qt

Martin Voelkle and Stéphane Magnenat

We will present a fully-functional augmented-reality solution using natural marker images, building on Qt 5 and OpenCV. Our solution uses state-of-the-art algorithms but is not yet as fast as competing closed-source products such as Vuforia. We will present the design choices, the architecture, the Qt integration, and discuss challenges and potential improvements. A demo will conclude the presentation.
