Old folks up in arms against autonomous technology, according to new survey

June 10, 2016 by David Edwards

Millions of elderly people are shaking their walking sticks at driverless cars and other autonomous machines, according to a new survey by MIT. 

The New England Motor Press Association (NEMPA) and MIT AgeLab say the results of their joint survey of consumers on autonomous technology and transportation alternatives shows that older consumers are resistant to allowing artificially intelligent machines complete control.

Bryan Reimer, research scientist MIT AgeLab and associate director of the New England University Transportation Center, says: “Penetration of fully automated vehicles into the mobility space is going to take time and will vary greatly across different regions of the world.  [Read more…] about Old folks up in arms against autonomous technology, according to new survey

Airbus is extending its use of Dassault Systèmes’ 3d design applications to its advanced manufacturing operations. 

Airbus, maker of airplanes and satellites among other aerospace products, undertook two years of testing before extending its use of Dassault Systèmes’ 3DExperience platform to its additive manufacturing programs integrating design, simulation and production.

Airbus Group will deploy Dassault Systèmes’ collaborative design and simulation applications as part of the “Co-Design to Target” industry solution experience, for the additive manufacturing of tooling, prototyping and parts for test flights and for production use on commercial aircraft.  [Read more…] about Airbus decides to use Dassault Systèmes 3D apps for advanced manufacturing operations

New Infineon chip enables Lenovo to build world’s smallest 3D camera, bringing augmented reality to smartphones

June 10, 2016 by Abdul Montaqim

Lenovo is the first manufacturer worldwide to bring Tango technology to a consumer product.

Google’s technology that allows devices to understand spatial information is an exclusive feature in the Phab2 Pro smartphone.

Based on the Time-of-Flight principle, the Real3 image sensor chip from Infineon Technologies equips the smartphone with a 3-dimensional perception of the surroundings in real-time.

Infineon provides the only image sensor chip in the world meeting Google’s specifications.  [Read more…] about New Infineon chip enables Lenovo to build world’s smallest 3D camera, bringing augmented reality to smartphones

Artificial intelligence is rapidly changing the business and consumer landscape, but has it reached its full potential?

With the wide adoption of automation and machine learning among organisations, we’re closer than ever before. And in 2016, we will continue this momentum and see artificial intelligence redefine the future of work, deliver on the promise of big data, and even transform consumers’ lives.

Artificial intelligence will define the future of work

The pace at which large-scale organisations more widely adopt artificial intelligence to replace manual, repetitive tasks will rapidly increase.  [Read more…] about Exclusive: ‘The future of artificial intelligence is here’, says Infosys big data boss
