I'd be interested in hearing this talk.

Part of the spec for the *prototype* included using my IOToy library for
various reasons - which is an IOT stack for working with devices in a
standardised fashion:

https://github.com/sparkslabs/iotoy

The link there to python is to treat hardware devices as introspectable
objects, in the same way software objects are, with an automatically
created python API.

Not sure how much of this has remained "in spec" for the final device, but
it's designed to wrap around devices cleanly, but the point of using the
IOToy libraries was to ensure that there was *an* example of IOT could be
be baked into the system :-)
