Quick intro to Computer Vision on Android

by Etienne Caron

Join us for a quick dive into using OpenCV and TensorFlow Lite on Android, packed with insights from the Instacart Caper Cart team. We’ll cover the basics, touch on overcoming some common hurdles, and touch on boosting performance with Perfetto. Perfect for anyone interested in exploring computer vision projects. See you there!

Compose all the way with Circuit

by Samuel Dionne

We will explore the library called Circuit from the developers of Slack and see what it means to use Compose beyond the UI layer.

Generics gotchas in Kotlin

by Nav Singh

I recently worked on updating a version of the SDK. While the SDK has been migrated to Kotlin, it still uses Java internally.

Following the SDK update and removing the nullability, everything seems to be working fine. There is however a crash as indicated by the following stacktrace:

java.lang.NullPointerException: Parameter specified as non-null is null: method com.*.*.viewmodels.ViewModel$1.onSuccess, parameter result

Therefore, in this talk, we will cover the generics in Kotlin, as well as the upper bound on its type system.
