My keynote was essentially all toy show. The first two demos were about developers tools, the third was on sensor nets, and the fourth was the Boeing ScanEagle experimental navigation system.

The first tool demo was about the combination of some new GUI layout stuff we've put out in a project that we call Matisse, together with advanced components from Swing Labs, to show how easy it is to create desktop applications in this new world. The app we showed the creation of was a music player.

The second tool demo was s howing how easy it has become to develope sophisticated apps for cellphones using the NetBeans mobility support. My favorite part came at the very end where we downloaded the app to a cellphone and did the debugging live (including hitting breakpoints and examining variables) on a real handset - not in an emulator.

The third demo was some cool sensor net stuff that combined the work of folks at Agilent, SFSU and Sun to put very powerful and flexible sensors into San Francisco Bay. They use cell phones to communicate from the sensor to the network, JXTA to deal with organization, and data publishing via RSS (yes: the sensors are technically bloggers).

The fourth demo was navigation software for the Boeing ScanEagle automous aircraft. It's a realtime java application that essentially acts as the pilot of the aircraft, it gets told what to observe with its camera, and it goes there and flies an observation pattern. No human pilot onboard or on the ground.
