Professional conference applications

Does anyone want to talk about developing applications for the professional and academic conference market? It's a multi-billion dollar market but totally fragmented - there are no stand-out products that dominate - so it's ripe for game-changing products.

I'm software savvy but not a developer - lots of experience in the industry, lots of software experience. I know what the market needs and how to sell it but I can't fully exploit the opportunities. I have several huge clients who will grab at decent products. So I need technology partners!

Here are some of the applications I have in mind:

Controlling podium presentations (Powerpoint etc)
Enhanced presentations with screen interaction
Kiosks with 3-d interactive floor plans and flip-books of papers and abstracts

Hi Wilsonk. I surely want!

I just started my company HandiSense. We're making leap based software for people with various disabilities and we're also working on the conference market with a product that will let import 3D models like illustrator, 3DS, etc to a motion-ready powerpoint-like visualizer.

So this subject resonate with me and I agree with you that there's an interesting market for it! We plan to have a demo available for september.

regards,

Antoine

I was at the Bio Sphere in Montreal last week and I say a wide array of screen that can sense motion of hands, The subject there was creating the player's vision of a sustainable energy for the whole world. I liked that approach.

I am interested in doing things for people with special needs. I have been a developer till not too long ago.

I would be interested in learning more about potentially working with you. Just released my first project, Paper Football. It is my first attempt at putting something together with the Leap Motion Controller. May you could take a look and then let me know if we might be able to work on something together. https://www.leapmotiontechnology.com/apps/paper-football-flickit/osx

Grace & Peace to you!
