Hacking Lego Boost with Java
Davide Montesin, catchsolve
Lego Boost may be designed for kids – but who says grown-up developers can’t have fun with it too?
In our May edition, Davide Montesin from catchsolve will show us how to “hack” the Lego Boost system and unleash the full potential of the kit by going beyond the official app. Using Java, he’ll demonstrate how to connect to the smart hub via Bluetooth, take direct control of sensors and motors, and send custom commands that push the kit far beyond its intended use towards more advanced and creative projects.
Expect a hands-on session with live coding examples and lots of tinkering spirit. Whether you're a maker, a Java enthusiast, or just curious about creative hardware hacking, this session will inspire you to see Lego bricks in a whole new light.
Join us and explore how much fun “serious” development can be – even with toys.
