Raspberry Pi that uses IDOL OnDemand face detection API to alert Developer Evangelists of attendees who need help at an event.
Hackathon attendee who wants help comes over to the "bell". The onboard camera will check to see there is person actually standing there. When it detects a face via IDOL OnDemand face detection API, the large button (aka the"bell") illuminates. The attendee then holds the "bell" down until another LED turns on indicating the Raspberry Pi is sending the image via Twilio. The image of the attendee is then delivered to the Developer Evangelists at the event so they can easily find them once they are available.
