*** About the Speaker ***
Scott Driscoll was one of the first students in Georgia Tech's new Music Technology department, where he developed a drumming robot named 'Haile' that could listen to and interact with other human players. After graduating, he started a company called Curious Inventor that provided how-to videos and electronics kits to hobbyists. The videos have been seen over 4 million times, and are used by companies and universities across the world to teach soldering and other basic electronics skills. At Sentrinsic, Scott developed several embedded controllers, and is also continuing his work in human-computer interaction with the development of Augmented Reality applications for industrial use.Over the last few years, Sentrinsic has focused on the intersection between mobile devices and industrial equipment with the goal of allowing end users to interface with their products using smartphones and tablets. This includes mobile apps that allow customers to scan equipment to pull documents from the cloud, request replacement parts for their specific equipment, and use Augmented Reality maintenance guides.

About the organizer
ASME is a not-for-profit membership organization that enables collaboration, knowledge sharing, career enrichment, and skills development across all engineering disciplines, toward a goal of helping the global engineering community develop solutions to benefit lives and livelihoods. Founded in 1880 by a small group of leading industrialists, ASME has grown through the decades to include more than 130,000 members in 158 countries. Thirty-thousand of these members are students.
The first meeting of the Atlanta Section of Asme took place on June 23, 1913. We are the largest ASME professional group in the Sourtheastern United States and mentor 6 different mechanical engineering ASME Student Sections in our area.
