Science Literacy Week UPEI and PEI Public Library Service Public lectures on Science, Creativity and Innovation featuring:   September 23rd, 7 pm at Confederation Centre Public Library Embedded Systems Design: Smart Everything Professor Christopher Vessey Small programmable prototyping devices have become inexpensive and readily available to people; no longer do we require expensively-equipped laboratories to produce real-world designs. With these systems, people are free to express creative ideas in ways they never thought possible. Today's explosion of automated systems development is a direct result of these abilities, and the move towards the "Internet of Things" where common objects become Internet accessible in an interactive way is a major new direction of development.   For the other Science Literacy Week listings, see the full schedule.
