How to get my Windows 10 Universal App to recognize my Microsoft Band

I'm trying to make a Windows 10 Universal App to make a third party tile for my Microsoft Band but it doesn't say in the documentation how to get my App to recognize the Band through USB. It only says how to do it through Bluetooth. The documentation also doesn't tell me how to access the GPS sensor. How do I do all these things?
To answer your first question, USB for the Band is used for charging. In order for you to test, you need to go through via Bluetooth. Your setup should be
Visual Studio > Launch App on your Device (mobile is connected to your laption via USB) > Test App on Mobile (which talks to Band via Bluetooth).
Note: Make sure Band is paired with the Mobile you are using to test.
To answer your second question, you can not subscribe to GPS on the band. It is not opened for thrid party app access. GPS is exclusive at this point.

How to develop an application for the Sony DSC RX100-M3 camera

I have the RX100-M3 camera, and it seems that some applications can be developed for it.
As far as I understand, the CameraRemoteAPI SDK can be used to develop Android or iOS applications. So is there a way to develop applications for the Sony camera?
I would like to develop a feature to be able to:
set the timer (from 2s to 2min)
select the number of shots (from 1 to 2000)
select the time between shots.
There is an existing "intervalometer" application but it is very expensive.
Camera Remote API SDK allows one to remotely control the supported Sony cameras including RX100M3 from any other device, by sending HTTP commands to the camera. The application you create can run from any
platform Android, iOS , Windows, PC, etc. You will have to connect this device to the camera over WiFi.
To get more information, please download the SDK, which contains sample applications and API documentation.

Virtual Light Sensor for Windows 8 Desktop

I want to develop a desktop application (C#) with support for light sensors but I dont have a real light sensor, Is there a way to install a "Virtual Ambient Light Sensor" on Windows 8?
Why can't you simply mock the light sensor to test your app? See the lightsensor api, further Scott Hanselman has already blogged some examples on how to access RT API from the Desktop Ap. With the above two you can mock, test and use the light sensor directly in your app.
