Session descriptions for Saturday

Qt website and services

Tero Kojo

Status and future outlook of the services we have running for Qt project. Includes most services that are run under the qt.io domain like Forum and Wiki. Excludes codereview and bugreports, as I am not in charge of those.

Resolution independence and HighDPI support

Paul O. Tvete

Discuss how to support creation of device independent user interfaces. This includes the DEVICE_PIXEL_RATIO approach for legacy applications, and resolution independent units for Qt Quick.

Services in Qt for Android

Eskil A. Blomfeldt and Christian Strømme

Discuss how to implement support for Android Services in Qt for Android, specifically the problem of having both an Activity and a Service in the same application. Is it possible to provide the two, with independent entry points and exit points, in the same process? Or does it have to be separate processes? This session serves as brain storming and discussion about how this can be achieved and what the possible pitfalls are.

Qt on Embedded Linux

Laszlo Agocs

Discuss the state of Qt 5.5 on Embedded Linux, focusing on recent additions and future plans for graphics and input. Wayland & Qt Compositor work can also be discussed.

Qt and 3D

Pasi Keränen

Discuss the state of 3D enablers in Qt now that 5.5 brings Canvas3D (a WebGL-like API to QtQuick) and Qt 3D 2.0 technology preview (an upcoming advanced, fully data driven C++ 3D scene graph). Some things we probably should discuss include: How easy is it to use these? Performance expectations? What kind of tooling would be in the scope of Qt to offer a good enough end-to-end content pipeline? What kind of use cases should we be looking at and optimising for?

Video filtering, GPU compute (OpenCL, CUDA) and computer vision (OpenVX, OpenCV)

Laszlo Agocs

Discuss recent new features like video filters ( http://blog.qt.io/blog/2015/03/20/introducing-video-filters-in-qt-multimedia/ ), research like Qt QuickCL ( https://blog.qt.io/blog/2015/04/20/qt-quick-with-the-power-of-opencl-on-embedded-linux-devices/ ) and the Jetson TK1 experiments ( http://blog.qt.io/blog/2015/03/03/qt-weekly-28-qt-and-cuda-on-the-jetson-tk1/ ) and do some brainstorming to come up with ideas to try in the future in this domain.
