From AAA Games to Independent Virtual Reality Hear lessons learned from a local VR/AR/MR developer. Richard Terrell (former EA), will share about his experience moving from AAA gaming to independent VR/AR development. Rick will be sharing his typical VR/AR workflow and mention special considerations for design and development in VR and AR. If you are a developer in web, mobile or gaming, this could be a good place to shine some light on VR development if this has interested you.
Richard Terrell (Rick) has worked in AAA video games, defense simulation, web development and now independently in VR and AR development. Although Rick is an engineer at heart, with a background in Computer Science, he also has his MBA and has done a fair amount of business development and project management. Outside of work he spends time with family and likes to serve his local church.

Developers Need to Pay Attention to Licenses We developers have become so comfortable with open source that we often make the mistake of not paying attention to the licenses of the software we are using, in some cases, even mistakenly using closed source software as if it were open source - opening our companies up to liabilities.  
Brian Rinaldi is the Developer Programs Manager at Progress (formerly Telerik). He is a frequent author and speaker and serves as co-editor on the popular Mobile Web Weekly newsletter. He authored a report and a book, both on static site generators, for O’Reilly. Brian is a relatively recent transplant to Orlando by way of Boston.
