All Hands/2015 Whistler/ScienceFairDemos

Who and what will you see at the first-ever Work Week Science Fair? Let us count the demos:

Project Name	Project Description	What You'll See and Learn	Contact
BlocklyDuino	An open source project that provide the web-based visual programming editor for Arduino.	People will be able to blink LED, control servo by rotation controller, change LED color via stacking coding blocks and flash code to Arduino board. Example.	Fred Lin
Compositor-driven video timing	By moving video frame timing to the compositor we can make video playback smoother, especially for 60fps video. We can demo this by playing a specially crafted 60fps video of alternating cyan and magenta frames, which clearly shows color flashes whenever a frame is dropped or duplicated.	We can show people how Gecko with these changes gets much smoother 60fps video than older Gecko, or Chrome.	Robert O'Callahan
Connecting Donors with our Mission	We'll showcase some donor letters and ask you to send a message back to fundraising	We'll reflect on how our work and our personal values have contributed to letters of appreciation from donors. We do this: 1) to celebrate our donors 2) to celebrate our colleagues 3) to make our colleagues aware of their very real role in fundraising! We need to develop a MoFo case statement AND stewardship report for donors who gave in 2014 and this exercise will start to uncover potential contributors and some stories we wouldn't otherwise find.	Rebecca Davies
Electrolysis	We'll demo some performance improvements e10s brings to the browser and generally answer any questions people have.	Learn how e10s is helping to improve the quality of the browser.	Jim Mathies
Firefox Hello	Firefox Hello long term vision. Many think of Firefox Hello as just a Video calling tool but we want it to become the best way to share the web with others.	Our demo will help people understand the Hello vision and how we intend to deliver it.	Dan Horner

Firefox OS for TV	Firefox OS TV and the key experiences / features	What's Firefox OS on TV like? Check out the new form factor and see how Mozilla can build a better Firefox product experience	Joe Cheng
FoxEye	We will demo how modern computer vision and image processing can change the Web. We will show some image processing abilities through OpenCV.js. And also some video processing through WebCam.	This cutting edge Web technology will inspire the creativeness of the Web developers on image processing and computer vision area. This framework demonstrates a worker based model which allow the Web developers to fully utilize multi-core machine.	Chia-hung Tai
Games & VR	The Games and VR teams would like to demo the latest and greatest games and immersive experiences from the bleeding edge of the web.	Attendees will get their hands on the bleeding edge of gaming and immersive experiences built on the open web. They'll learn what's possible today, what's coming next, and how they can start to build their own gaming and immersive experiences today using web technologies they already know and love.	Josh Carpenter
Gecko for iOS	A ported Gecko running iOS: showing a simple browser embedding running on an unmodified iPhone 6.	Technical details of the port, App Store guideline nonsense, bad jokes.	Ted Mielczarek
Localizing via a web editor	I'll show the current status of Aisle, a plugin for Cloud9 to localize Firefox.	You'll learn how to bring translation-specific problems together with editing source code. And there's a plan on how to make that great.	Axel Hecht
Mozilla InvestiGator (MIG)	MIG is a platform to perform investigative surgery on remote endpoints. It enables investigators to obtain information from large numbers of systems in parallel, thus accelerating investigation of incidents and day-to-day operations security.	The capabilities of MIG as deployed at Mozilla today, and how to use the platform to help with their daily tasks.	Julien Vehent
MozReview	MozReview is a code-review platform tightly integrated with Mozilla's infrastructure to optimize developer productivity.	How to use MozReview and why, and where we're going with it.	Mark Côté
Password Manager	Improvements to the password manager used by Firefox desktop and Android since the beginning of the year. Find out how to get involved by reporting websites where the password manager doesn't work or creating per-site recipes to fix them.	Learn what types of issues have been fixed to get a better understanding about what should work. Discover how to get involved by reporting websites where the password manager doesn't work or creating per-site recipes to fix them.	Matthew Noorenberghe
Perfherder	Perfherder is a new project, part of Treeherder, which will aims to: (1) detect, manage performance regressions in Firefox and Firefox for Android as detected by the Talos benchmarking tool; and (2) help Firefox developers evaluate the effect that their patches have on performance by providing tools for performing a side-by-side comparison on performance measures for specific revisions. Example. Project landing page.	The primary target audience for the demo are likely developers. You will learn: (1) How Perfherder will be used for performance sheriffing in the future (performance sheriffs will soon be linking to perfherder graphs and comparisons when filing bugs about performance regressions). (2) How to use Perfherder's comparison view to evaluate a build you submitted to try. The project is just beginning to come together, feedback from a broad cross section of the Firefox developer community would be extremely valuable.	William Lachance
Pinning the Web	Pinning the Web is an experimental UI for Firefox OS which removes the artificial distinction between web apps and web sites and allows you to pin any web site or web page to your device, in a novel new way.	See a demo video of this in action and play with a prototype.	Ben Francis
PluotSorbet	PluotSorbet implements a Java-compatible virtual machine and J2ME-compatible platform in JavaScript. It enables you to run J2ME apps, a.k.a. midlets, on Firefox OS!	Learn what PluotSorbet is, how it works, and the benefits of using it to make more apps available for Firefox OS. You'll also learn where we can use help and how to get involved.	Myk Melez

Shipping Firefox to the World!	Learn how we ship Firefox to the world! Release Engineering will present the systems that turn open source code into the software installed on computers everywhere. We provide a publicly available "try server" where anyone who contributes to Firefox can test out their changes in our build environment. We'll discuss the systems that automate releases, tools that enable build creation and monitoring and our plans for the future.	Learn about the system for producing Firefox binaries and installers, and the people that run this environment. If you are a new developer or want to contribute to Firefox core development, learn about the tryserver and how to test your code. If you're already a contributor, come learn about upcoming changes to our build and test pipeline, and ways you can contribute and use that pipeline directly yourself.	Selena Deckelmann
Teach The Web with Mozilla Clubs	Mozilla is making it easy to teach others digital skills and web literacy through our new offering. We recently launched "Mozilla Clubs" as a way to organize local teaching and learning all year-round. Building off the success of Mozilla's successful Maker Party campaign, Mozilla Clubs are a great way to provide sustained local engagement, train up local leaders, and take our mission of spreading web literacy and digital opportunity to the next level.

Webmaker in the Belizean Jungle	In Dec 2014/Jan 2015, 4 Mozillians organized a trip to Cerros, in the Belizian jungle to teach 30 kids how to use the web. Over the course of 1 week, we taught them about the structure of the web, privacy, coding, showed them how to use Firefox phones (which they got to keep). By the end they all had their own blogs. We will have lots of photos from the event as well as handwritten feedback sheets from the kids detailing what they learned. Participants were Matthew Ruttley, Shane Caraveo, Jorge Villalobos and it was initiated by Christopher Arnold.
