Stream Away with Scala

Explore the power of functional programming in handling streaming data through this Scala Days Chicago 2017 conference talk. Dive into the world of real-time data processing, focusing on robot control systems as a practical application. Learn about Potassium, a Scala framework that enables collection-like APIs for processing sensor and computer vision data. Discover how to model robot control systems using functional concepts such as applicative functors, resulting in elegant system decomposition. Examine the implementation of classical robot algorithms using functional programming techniques, maintaining both conciseness and high performance. Investigate the use of Akka actors and streams for inter-component communication and live data streaming for diagnostics. Finally, get a glimpse into utilizing React with Scala.js for creating reusable components to visualize streaming data using the open-source "Funky Dashboard" tool.
