This being my first AUVSI Xponential event, I wanted to get a sense of what to expect. The term “All things unmanned” is correct. I saw drones, vehicles, and how to keep your products connected and running. 

AUVSI stands for “The Association for Unmanned Vehicle Systems International”. From your fun drone that you bought at Walmart, to high end devices that work for movies, millitary, NASA, and more. 

In the commercial side, I saw Olli, the self-driving bus. If you go to downtown Vegas, you can actually ride an Olli. These busses could be small transport devices for campuses, downtown areas, and more. 

Bell Flight Nexus is the concept air taxi. Seating 4, you can get to your destination across town a lot easier. Since I live in Madison, WI, I could see this device take people across the two lakes that make up our Isthmus. A 30 minute drive could turn into a 5-10 minute flight. 

Panasonic showed off their Toughbook, including the new 2-in-1 laptop. At 2 lbs, this device can endure the elements so you can keep in contact with your devices, or just play Candy Crush. 

Lots more at AUVSI Xponential. I am here with SAE International to learn more about autonomous vehicles in the panel “How do We Make Automated Fleets Reliable and Safe”. I’ll live stream (depending on Internet connection).

It seems that ever since people started leaving cable companies for streaming services, all of the TV networks have started launching their own streaming services. NBC is reportedly the latest looking to enter the arena even though they already own one-third of Hulu. Ironically, it's rumored that they are going to be selling that to Disney who will, of course, be launching their own streaming service later this year. So what will they do with Hulu? We speculate. On the other side of the show, Facebook continues to show that they really don't care about privacy by getting hit with three violations from three different countries in one day. It's okay though. Your data is totally safe with them. And you're totally not a product that they buy and sell as if it were cheese. If only there were other social networks out there... But there are! Collin managed to dig up one from the past that apparently is still a thing. Finally, apologies for some of the terrible audio quality. No, Collin wasn't recording in the bathtub. He just has a fool for a co-host who happened to walk off with his equipment and was unable to return it to him before the episode was recorded.Headlines:Geek News:* DC cuts Swamp Thing short (http://stolendroids.com/swamp-thing-shuts-down-production/)* Disney looking to buy Comcast’s portion of Hulu (https://www.latimes.com/business/hollywood/la-fi-ct-hulu-disney-comcast-20190425-story.html)* NBC to launch own streaming service (https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/nbcuniversal-preps-streaming-service-reorganizes-executive-team-1175879)* Get ready to visit Star Wars: Galaxy's EdgeTech News:* PS5 to launch in 2020 (https://www.engadget.com/2019/04/26/sony-ps5-playstation-5-launch-date-2020/)* Facebook doesn’t seem to understand the concept of privacy laws (https://techcrunch.com/2019/04/25/facebook-privacy-investigations/)* Ello is still apparently a thing (https://ello.co/)

April 30, 1993: World Wide Web enters in Public Domain

1993 – You may see www, but it’s true meaning is World Wide Web. Tim Berners-Lee wrote WorldWideWeb during the 1990, while working for CERN. He did it on a NeXT Computer and developed it for the NeXTSTep platform (which Apple bought and turned into Mac OS X). But it was today that was most momentous, as the World Wide Web entered in the public domain. That meant anyone could access without license fees. Now a person could apply style sheets or post media on the web. The initial web browser was also the web editor.

It’s always great to talk with Telestream about the updates with one of my favorite programs – Wirecast. I ran into Bryce to talk more about Wirecast 12, and find out more about the announcement with Switch. 

Wirecast 12

There are two new great features, and one major fix to Wirecast. The QR code addition allows you to put a scannable code on your videos for people to get links, or just move a video from your computer to phone. 

The Stock Media Library is a partnership with Storyblocks to give you audio, video, and photo stock for your videos. This also includes audio bumpers for shows, stingers for camera changes, and cool video for a green screen background, and more. 

Finally, Rendezvous has gone through a major overhaul, including a way to give the guest a mix-minus audio return to remove any echo or anomalies if they don’t have high-end audio equipment. I can say first-hand, this makes the experience a lot easier. You send the guest a website URL, they connect, and you are off. 

Switch Gets ProRes RAW

If you use ProRes video, Telestream introduced an update to Switch, which includes ProRes RAW support. This allows a video producer to inspect and correct media files, including trim, scaling, and cropping. The media can then be sent to Facebook, YouTube, or your CDN.

There is Microsoft's latest quarterly earnings report which was very good, updates on Microsoft Edge Chromium work, and even a Windows Insider build for Fast Ring testers for the 20H1 feature update. We also learned more about system requirements for the Windows 10 May 2019 Update, discuss the status of Sets, and Surface Hub 2S plus the potential for Surface Buds and a Surface Display.
