This month was a co-hosted event with the IoT track of Dallas Startup Week 2016 and & the Communication and Vehicular Technology society. The goal was to showcase DFW technology and promote interaction between the IEEE, established companies, and the startup communities. Each startup had a table to exhibit their company. Some companies setup demonstrations, some had products, and others had videos and other literature. About halfway through the event, each company gave a brief introduction of their technology and status to the audience. Startup companies included optical and noise sensors, connected vehicles, computer vision, and connectivity platforms.
