[Davisgig] Meeting Reminder 7/14/2015 6:30pm Davis Library

[Robert Nickerson]

Hi Giggers

So I'll just put out there, that I had another great weekend tabling.
We are at around 240 people through the website, which is great.
Everyone I talked to but one grumpy old man was very interested, and
  made some great contacts.

Here is a big reminder about our meeting coming next week.
This is going to be a great talk about the new technologies you
will be using over the DavisGIG network.

We'd like it to be well populated so please come if you can.

I'll be putting this around social media.

Please like the DavisGIG facebook group and refer to it from there if 
you can


Thanks
RAN



When: Tuesday July 14th 6:30 pm - 7:30pm
Where: Davis Public Library
What: DavisGIG - Municipal Fiber Options Community Meeting
BY: DavisGIG and Davis Community Network (DCN)
Cost: Free, donations accepted

DavisGIG, a community group within town, is advocating for a 
municipal-owned, fiber-optic telecommunications network for Davis.

We are presenting two speakers.

Robert Nickerson "Municipal Fiber Optic for Davis"

We will explore what fiber optic Internet means, and why a 
community-owned fiber build is the best approach for Davis.

Robert Nickerson, is an Inter-nut, who has worked providing Internet 
Access, locally, since 1996. He is one of the owners of Omsoft, and very 
involved with DavisGIG(www.davisgig.org),  DCN (www.dcn.org) and Davis 
Makerspace (www.davismakerspace.org)

Oliver Kreylos, Ph.d "Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality, and Telepresence"

These terms, you have no doubt heard of, are the next generation of 
human computer interface. They are being deployed to mass market in 
2016,  and you might know some of the more popular products such as 
OculusVR, Microsoft HoloLens or Google Glass. A roaring-fast fiber-optic 
network is needed in Davis to create the necessary platform to utilize 
this new technology.

Dr. Kreylos has been working as a researcher, developer and inventor in 
the field of Computer Visualization.  He has been a Project Scientist 
with the UCD, Institute for Data Analysis and Visualization for over 12 
years.
