Hyundai and WayRay take a step forward together for the windshield of the future: one that can use augmented reality to provide AR visualizations of traffic light changes and navigational directions. "...images can be synchronized with the real-world objects they're meant to point out. A prompt to turn left could appear, to the driver as a giant arrow on the road, for example." https://bit.ly/2AE7Zfm #navigation #ar #augmentedreality #innovation #cars #CES2019

Most companies would like to have deeper analytical insights on internal company data, but few have succeeded in efficiently navigating obsolete, duplicated, or irrelevant data sets into streamlining a process that can deliver insights to the right people within the right timeframe. Some companies have dedicated teams of coders, while others are starting to look to AI and machine learning for support. However, artificial means for achieving predictions with sufficient accuracy have not yet been perfected.

European goals for driving AI progress will be based in "'low and fragmented' levels of investment" in the EU compared to US & China. "Initiatives outlined focus on four areas: investment, talent, data and trust." http://bit.ly/2QxLXjt #AI #artificialintelligence #EuropeanCommission #innovation #research

While 2018 didn't see robots replacing humans in factories or 3D printing everything in daily life, last year saw many critical steps in the integration of technology into manufacturing. 3D printing has allowed for cost-efficient prototyping on all levels and robotic automation has streamlined and improved processes from medical procedures to standard manufacturing. #innovation #technology #2018technology http://bit.ly/2Fcy7Sf

INSEAD addresses three major tenets of targeted innovation that larger companies ought to follow: investing in incremental innovation, 'outsourcing risky R&D,' and aligning the goals of the marketing and R&D departments. http://bit.ly/2SA3gCl #targetedinnovation #innovation #consumergoods #research

Technology will continue to revolutionize healthcare in 2019, expanding across such frontiers as tech-based medical and pharmaceutical services, increased provider reliance on data for decision-making, and new payers that 'embrace technology innovation' to improve user experience. http://bit.ly/2Fb5cNY #healthcare #health #healthcareinnovation #innovation #technology #technologicalinnovation

Music technology may be revolutionizing sound, but its use in music education is far from contemporary. Reliance on paper bookkeeping instead of efficient software for scheduling and other management necessities has led to mounting bad debt. 'Digital transformation' for the sake of 'streamlining business processes' is the avenue that music education must take to come current in 2019. http://bit.ly/2Vp7zSR #musiceducation #innovation #technology #musictechnology #studentaccessibility #students #musicindustry

As a final look to the past year, SportTechie sums up major technological innovation in the sports industry, including the Apple Watch becoming a medical-grade device for tracking heart rate, the legalization of sports betting, use of video assistant referees (VARs) for major matches, along with sports streaming, VR, and esports advances. #HappyNewYear!

2018 has seen great advances in AI technology. What with using AI to improve cancer detection rates, translate news articles at a level on par with humans, and run a completely autonomous electric shuttle in Las Vegas, the use of artificial intelligence has boomed across all industries. #AI #artificialintelligence #innovation #technology

"This fall, several cross-disciplinary projects at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) probed the technological and aesthetic limits of sound, resulting in new innovations and perspectives, from motion-sensing headphones that enable joggers to maintain a steady pace, virtual reality technology that enables blind people to experience comic book action, as well as projects that challenge our very relationship with technology.'" #innovation #soundinnovation #soundtechnology

This startup adds another contender to the race to build the best autonomous flying vehicle with a "new passenger drone 'like a flight simulator that you can ride in.'" #innovation #technology #drone #passengerdrone

Senior VP Mike Andrus attended the 26th Annual World Congress of the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine (A4M) in Las Vegas. He is pictured with Founder Dr. Robert Goldman. With a membership of more than 26,000 physicians, scientists and government officials, the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine is dedicated to the advancement of tools, technology, and transformations in healthcare that can detect, treat, and prevent diseases associated with aging.

Cirque du Soleil's extravagant performances are about to get kicked up a notch with the help of SAP. The companies are working toward using augmented reality to create a unique experience for the audience. Physical representations could be captured and 'digital tattoos' could be projected back, allowing for quick costume and makeup changes via digital animation. #innovation #SAP #cirquedusoleil
