Amazon Astro. Woof. Woof.

What do you get when you mix Amazon’s Alexa voice assistant with an Echo Show tablet, give it a hefty dose of artificial intelligence, integrate it all with Ring’s home security system, and let it roll around your home autonomously? Oh ya and Pepper (see what I did there) it with a little Jetson’s naming … and you get ASTRO. Astro…

How Intelligent Automation could help avoid trillions in losses.

Great article from Pascal BORNET and Forbes – Intelligent automation (IA) technologies have great potential to reduce financial losses across all businesses, from multinational corporations to small family businesses and sole traders. The key three areas are fraud, errors, and accidents at work & work-related illnesses. #wakeupimagine #intelligentautomation #ai #artificialintelligence #work https://www.forbes.com/sites/forbestechcouncil/2021/07/20/how-intelligent-automation-could-help-avoid-trillions-in-losses-per-year/?sh=1868f2aa8042

VR Truck Drivers do it Remotely.

Autonomous trucks can now be driven remotely from hundreds of miles away. Swedish company Voysys AB has designed a remote system that uses 4G. Voysys claims a glass-to-glass latency of 75 milliseconds and 40 milliseconds on faster networks. According to the company, drivers will feel as if they are in the truck. Interesting. Is this the future…

Amazing Autonomous (Mini) Automobiles.

Amazing #innovation – The University of Cambridge has created a fleet of autonomous mini-cars able to interact with each other for a common goal: optimized traffic flow and passenger safety. The video shows that, in “cooperative” mode, vehicles approaching the obstacle (car 16) will reduce their speed, avoiding other vehicles to be blocked by the obstacle and create queues.…
