HR Tech Entrepreneur Gergo Vari on AI, Automation, and the Future of Jobs

April 13, 2023 by Mark Allinson Leave a Comment

By Gergo Vari, founder and CEO of Lensa

Automation has affected all sectors of activity. And recruitment is no exception.

In today’s labor market, where attracting and keeping top talent is more challenging than ever before, companies that implement AI and automation into their recruitment process stand to gain a significant edge over their competitors.

I founded the AI-powered online jobs portal Lensa in 2016 with the conviction that technology such as AI, machine learning, and automation could be used to help match job seekers and companies. And the results have surpassed even our (admittedly) lofty expectations. [Read more…] about HR Tech Entrepreneur Gergo Vari on AI, Automation, and the Future of Jobs

NCKU researchers develop ‘first’ dual-mode piezotronics-based force sensor

August 23, 2022 by Mark Allinson Leave a Comment

With the rise of Internet of Things and Industry 4.0, piezoelectrics, or materials that generate electric charge when a strain is applied to them, are becoming extremely useful as compact and energy-efficient force sensors.

Accordingly, piezotronics has emerged as a new technological frontier with applications in structural health monitoring in civil engineering and human-machine interface devices.

Piezotronic force sensors are typically governed by either a strain-induced “Schottky barrier height (SBH) modulation” or by a “piezo-gating effect” that redistributes the charge carriers in an induced piezoelectric field.
