I would like to do some Deep Learning tests on the DJI Mavic Pro Drone, but before purchasing it I want to know which programming languages the Guidance SDK uses to develop this scripts and Is it possible to edit prewritten functions of this SDK?
I have been searching but I couldn´t find any information about it, I know it is possible to program with ROS in Guidance SDK.
But let's say I have a python Script can I work with it using the mentioned SDK?
For example the Parrot 2.0 Power Drone Quadricopter Edition it is possible to edit its library and prewritten functions, here in GitHub you can see more information of some deep learning project applied to this drone: https://github.com/antriv/Object_Recognition_Drone. But I don't know if the DJI Mavic Pro or any DJI Drone allows this.
If someone has any idea or some website where I can find information it would be very helpful.
Guidance SDK is only for developing with the Guidance product: http://www.dji.com/guidance?site=developer
For Mavic, you can use the mobile SDK: http://developer.dji.com/mobile-sdk/
This will let you write any apps on either iOS or Android using respectively Objective-C/Swift or Java.

This is a very basic question, but I have no idea how to be begin, so please bear with me.
I'm a C# software developer, so I'm very familiar with the VS IDE and with Windows and Web development. But I have never developed a mobile application.
With that said, I came up with an idea which is essentially a screen with a map and a bunch of pins, and a list that represents each pin. It will run in an iphone and android phone. It will look something like below.
I decided to develop it in Xamarin because 1) I've worked with VS for many years so I understand how it works, 2) I can develop one app in Xamarin that can run both in ios and android.
I understand that it may be a very basic question, but I have no idea where to start. I also have experience with development, so I don't want to go thru the Hello World example. Finally, I also have a full-time job, so my limited free time would be used to completing this particular app.
So my question is: where do I start?
First thing first. You should get yourself familiar with Mobile Development(app life cycle, patterns etc.) by creating few sample applications (since you stated you were developing in Visual Studio using c# before it should be quick procedure for you). You can find documentation and sample codes on official Xamarin site:
Xamarin Website
Next get yourself familiar with MVVM pattern and MVVM frameworks to write applications using modern patterns and modern practises. I personally recommend MVVMCross or MVVMFresh.
Data Binding from Official site
FreshMVVM with Samples
Then get yourself familiar with Xamarin.Forms maps. It's a nice library that allows you to use one code and share them across 2 platforms. Google Maps official apis are also good but they are platform specific.

Enjoy and welcome to the Dark Side ;)
Is it possible / a good choice to use Google Cardboard SDK to realise AR?I Only have found VR related things with that SDK. What is the best framework for AR? Is Vuforia a good way to go? Im trying to write an AR app (for Android) which detects/scans room numbers at my university and shows the schedule of this room (which class / time / which prof...)
Thanks for help!
Google Cardboard SDK is made for VR, hence not the best option for AR. There are SDKs built specifically for AR. Check out this comparison
There is an alpha version of DroidScript (JavaScript IDE for Android) available which supports augmented reality for Google Cardboard. There is also a sample on the DroidScript forum that demonstrates Aruco marker detection (Augmented reality). So I guess you could hack something together quite easily if you ask the developers for the latest version.
The latest version of vuforia can be integrated with Google cardboard.

I have made my first app in the Android platform. However this is not the only platform and I want to get my apps published on at least Android and iOS platforms.
I would like to have one developing platform for both platforms. What is the options?
I have now tried Flex, Air with Flash Builder. It seems quite promising but the future seems to be a bit uncertain and are also more expansive.
It would be interesting to have some suggestions about what developing tools to focus on if I would like to develop apps on both Android and iOS.
It depends what kind of apps you want to build (i.e. Games, Content Aggregators, etc.) because each 3rd party "App-Generator" that deploys to multiple platforms has their strengths and weaknesses.
Here's a (brief) list:
Appcelerator's Titanium SDK - leverages mobile-browser-based features, mostly for content-aggregators, simple or core feature list on platforms
Corona - leverages LUA-scripting language for 2d / more simple games and applications; has a growing user-base and community; possible to leverage for core-experience as well
Unity - 3d experience, games, usually for more high-end, premium experiences
If you're going to develop on the platform, I always recommend build to that platform's language since you'll never have to worry about what happens when the language is upgraded and your "app-generator" hasn't upgraded yet.
It will also help you to learn the language on that platform (Java, C#, Objective-C, etc.)
I know it's old topic but for those who are still looking for rapid mobile development there is also Kinetise that is code-less tool and offers also backend system/CMS.
You can use Sybase Unwired Platform. It has Device App Designer which can create applications for Blackberry ,Android and iOS.
If you are aiming for high quality, I don't think there is any other way than going native for each platform. Also keep in mind that different platforms have different UI guidelines and principles, and doing a multiplatform project is not a good enough reason to abandon those guidelines.
I recommend phonegap: http://www.phonegap.com
I'm looking into a way of building eBook reader that will support adobe content server DRM. The only solution find was Adobe Digital Editions Which is an off the shelf product and I'm looking for some sort of SDK.
any advice will help.

btw i don't have enough rep to post additional links
adobe digital editions url == www.adobe.com/products/digitaleditions/
The Reader Mobile SDK (RMSDK), is the only way you have to build a ebook reader that works with Adobe Content Server, since it deals with the complex encryption, authentication and authorization tasks needed.
The SDK is in C++, but can be used in most tecnologies.
Adobe Digital Editions (ADE) use it behind the scenes. But a good way to learn how to use it is to check out the code of the new version of ADE v1.8 preview, wich is built with .Net and WPF.
Most of the times Adobe documentation on this issues are quite poor.
If you're comfortable with this technologies, decompile it and analise its interaction with the RMSDK.
Hope this helps.
Apparently there is no AIR SDK. There is a C++ based SDK dubbed "Reader Mobile SDK" and though it's misleading name it supports Desktops as well.
There SDK is not widely available and you should fill an inquiry form with adobe, if they see fit you'll get the SDK.
Recently I've been getting more and more into mobile development. I am currently working with the iPhone and Android based devices.
Palm's new WebOS looks interesting.
Are there any good online tutorials for quickly getting up to speed on developing for the Palm WebOS?
The Palm Developer Network has some basic overviews: http://developer.palm.com/
They also have a section up there: Palm webOS: Developing Applications in JavaScript Using the Palm Mojo Framework. This may be a good start.
Palm webOS: Developing Applications in JavaScript Using the Palm Mojo Framework is a book in the making, available currently through O'Reilly Rough Cuts program).
You can easily read the first chapter.
That's the closest you can get currently from official sources. Unless you apply to their SDK early access program (sdkapplication.palm.com/sdkapplication) and they let you in (you can apply for it until the SDK is officially released to the public).
Of course, another thing we can do until the SDK is out is catch up on whatever technologies we individually need that programming for Palm's webOS will require: JavaScript, HTML5, CSS... and there's ton of material about these online. Actually, there are many websites dedicated to Palm Pre and webOS that sprung up recently. The one that is more programming oriented that I know of is webOShelp.net: take a look at their Getting started with webOS guide (www.weboshelp.net/getting-started-with-webos).
P.S. sorry about not clickable links, had to play the system somehow ;) - it won't allow me to post more than one link since I'm new here.
Now that the device is out, people are actively playing with the device. Best site I have found so far is (no affiliation) http://predev.wikidot.com
Also, if you root the device, you can look at the source for the shipped apps in /usr/palm/applications
I have additional notes at http://friendfeed.com/
The site www.weboshelp.net has quite a few good tutorials.
This blog has a good tutorials:
