Rethinking Drone Autonomy in GPS-Denied Environments - OpenCV Live 217

Autonomous drones only fly as well as they can figure out where they are. Drop one into a forest, a dense city, or a disaster zone, and that gets a lot harder — the signals they normally lean on just aren’t there. This week we get into HUNT, a navigation approach built for exactly the places where the usual answers fall apart.

How to use OpenSearch sparse_vector for neural sparse search searches

How to use OpenSearch sparse_vector for neural sparse search searches

Video by NetApp Instaclustr via YouTube
How to use OpenSearch sparse_vector for neural sparse search searches

Learn how OpenSearch’s sparse_vector field type enables neural sparse search — and see it running live on an OpenSearch cluster, all in under 6 minutes.

In this video, Ramya breaks down what sparse_vector is, how it differs from knn_vector, the key parameters you need to know when configuring it, and walks through a complete working example on OpenSearch Dashboards. By the end, you’ll know how to create a sparse vector index, ingest documents with token-weight pairs, run your first neural sparse search query — and how to decide when to use sparse_vector versus knn_vector.

If you haven’t seen the knn_vector video yet, I’d recommend starting there for context — it covers the dense vector side of the same story.

Introduce A unified map SDK for mobile app developers, Masashi Katsumata, #FOSSASIA Summit 2026

Build map-powered mobile apps without vendor lock-in. In this FOSSASIA Summit 2026 session, Masashi Katsumata introduces MapConductor, an open-source middleware SDK that provides a unified API for popular map platforms, including Google Maps, Mapbox, ArcGIS, HERE, and MapLibre.

Discover how MapConductor simplifies cross-platform development by abstracting multiple map SDKs behind a consistent interface, reducing migration costs and allowing developers to focus on application logic instead of provider-specific implementations. The session also covers the project’s architecture, technical challenges, live demos, and roadmap toward a community-driven open-source ecosystem.

FOSSASIA Summit 2026 held in Bangkok, is Asia’s leading Open Source tech conference featuring sessions on #AI, #Cloud, #DevOps, #Open Hardware, #Security, #Web #Mobile Technologies, #Web3, and #Databases. Learn more: http://summit.fossasia.org

The Maintainer Trap: Linus, FOSS, and AI Managers

Open source maintainers keep the world’s infrastructure running—but the ā€œpromotionā€ from contributor to maintainer can feel like a trap. In this clip from SUDO Show 77, Bill, Neal, and Noel talk about maintainer burnout, what we can learn from Linus Torvalds’ approach to leadership in the Linux kernel, and where AI managers might fit into the future of FOSS and DevOps teams.
