MWC 2017 is taking place first thing next week, between February 27 and March 2, and we’ve been informed earlier by Canonical that they are currently finalizing arrangements for their presence at the world’s largest gathering for the mobile industry, at stand 3k31 in Hall P3. This year, Canonical will be showcasing their latest Ubuntu related developments, including the Ubuntu mobile OS (Ubuntu Touch) on the Fairphone 2 modular smartphone, as well as live demonstrations of the latest digital signage solutions, home automation kits, base stations, and, for the first time, augmented reality helmets.
