Quiet on Set - Building an On-Air Sign with Open Source Tech

Talkat PyData Amsterdam 2025 · 2025-09-24..09-26· [kubernetes, webxr]

Builds a working on‑air sign using a Raspberry Pi that lights within a second when camera logs show AV capture or a Zoom port check indicates a meeting, with soldering required for the RGB matrix; events go to Apache Kafka (one‑week retention, keyed by device), Flink reads Kafka and writes partitioned parquet to S3 via a Polaris catalog into Apache Iceberg tables for analytics, and the presenter claims the same scaffolding can scale to millions of users while the prototype proves end‑to‑end.
