Charleston, SC Linux Users Group

http://www.charlestonruby.org/

Our first meeting on January 21 was a great success. With 22 attendees, we first introduced ourselves and had quite a spread of experience with Ruby. We then discussed goals of the group, which included communication among members, educational presentations at meetings, local promotion of Ruby, and open source contribution. We then briefly discussed Ruby and some of its related tools.

This meeting may not have a formal presentation but the subject matter will focus on OpenCV and Adruino. OpenCV is a well known computer vision package. OpenCV is in use in factories for quality control measures, guiding autonomous vehicles in the DARPA Challenge, tracking blobs for touchscreen devices, and many other uses. Arduino is an open source electronics platform made for hobbyists. There are a lot of projects featuring Arduino.
