http://www.wearabletechnologyshow.net/home Nice I was hoping Dr Saxe would be giving a talk this spring Wearable Technology Show Mar 7–8, 2017 Location: London Additional Information Booth: K50 Panel: March 7th at 1:25 p.m.Advanced SensorsPanelist - Andy Green, Senior Director, Strategic Marketing Presentation: March 8th at 2:25 p.m.What if Your House Understood You?Dr. Tim Saxe, CTO
smart home and IoT 2.10pm Break 2:25am What if Your House Understood You? If your hands are busy, or dirty, you can ask a family member to turn on a light, or oven. What if you could talk to your house and appliances? Speaker: Dr Timothy Saxe, CTO, QuickLogic So its voice UX in focus. Voice controlled connected home Its going to be a theme, the device with Alexa wake up at CES, this talk, and others.......
also there is this one 1:30pm Advanced Sensors The integration and convergence of sensor technologies gives industry’s a multitude of opportunities to create compelling and useful wearables. Discussion Points: Which companies are developing their technology? Why they are so dominant? What will the future look like for advanced sensors? Moderator: James Moar, Senior Analyst, Juniper Research Panel Discussion: Craige Palmer, General Sales Manager, Hamamatsu Photonics David Lussey, Non-Executive Board Member, Infi-Tex Andy Green, Senior Director, Strategic Marketing, QuickLogic
Demonstration: Stand K50, Smart Home of the Future March 7 and 8, 2017 from 9:00 a.m. - 5:30 p.m. A voice-enabled home automation system using Sensory's "Alexa" voice-trigger running on QuickLogic's EOS™ S3 Sensor Processing Solution. One nice thing about the hardened Sensory LPSD is that it plays well with both Smartphones and in IoT applications. S Jkhnon works has a whole chapter on Expect Multiples. So I have. The LPSD hardened + MCU combo has been the only one for long enough now that it will make a difference as they make those PCB...... SOme classic S Johnson as I NEVER get tired of it.... https://www.fastcocreate.com/303690...ion-from-steven-johnson-and-how-we-got-to-now ONE THING LEADS TO ANOTHER There are almost always unintended consequences of innovation, leading to further creations that could have never been imagined. TOP one for me as it relates to QUIK? FPGA = Inference on the device. NOOBODY saw it coming. ( Sensory sooner than most anyone) In other words, innovation begets innovation. One of Johnson’s favorite examples of this is Johannes Gutenberg’s invention of the printing press, which unexpectedly created a widespread need for spectacles. "All over Europe everybody’s like, ‘I can’t see to read. I need glasses!’ People hadn’t noticed before that they were far-sighted because other than monks, people really didn’t have much of a need to read," Johnson says. "The printing press set in motion the need for spectacles, which created a market for lens makers, which then makes people start tinkering with lenses on a larger scale, which then leads to telescopes and microscopes and revolutions in science."eFPGA can lead to convolutional neural networks on the device. Inference on the device. Intelligence on the fly... Another S Johnson key that bodes well for QUIK...here is Johnson... INNOVATION ARISES FROM COLLABORATION The most successful innovators tend to work with and bounce ideas off of others. Unfortunately, Edouard-Leon Scott de Martinville didn't do this. Ever heard of him? Probably not. He was a Parisian who created the phonautograph, a machine that recorded sound, two decades before Thomas Edison invented the phonograph. The only problem: Scott de Martinville’s device could record audio but couldn’t play it back, so no one was interested in it. "It never occurred to him that it should also include playback. He was really on the cutting edge there," Johnson says, "and yet he couldn’t conceptualize this one extra feature. He couldn’t even think of that as a possibility." In Johnson’s mind, Scott would have benefited from working with other tinkerers who could have helped him expand upon his original intention. "I think there is a cautionary tale about the lone genius myth here. The lone genius can often come up with a lot of great things if they really are a genius. But they’ll often have that kind of blind spot where there’s something that they just can’t see that seems so obvious with hindsight. I think if Scott had been in a team of people—Edison had his people that he worked with—someone on the team would have said, ‘I’ve got an idea: What if we could also listen to the audio after we record it?’ And he might have gotten there and actually had a successful product." Is QUIK the French guy lone genius or the opposite. Increasingly the opposite. Sensory, PEEL, Alexa wake up model, App companies that we will hear more of, one who wants a wearable. THis is looming fairly important. + The IP eFPGA collaborations, GLo FO, the new one, semi MCU makers....then on to HIGH performance eFPGA, and the adjacent possible for that has to be on device intelligence- a NNLE, Convolutional NN, etc. XIlinx Inference, but on the device Inference...value of that?A LOT more than you realize! These collaborations will insure the Roadmap will be where the Puck will be. It also suggests that there will be new good things that happen a LOT more often now than new BAD things that have happened in the past..... This help to start to grasp that wealth creation and QUIK are also the adjacent possible for those who have a focus holding of their business. SOmetimes a dream delayed is NOT a dream cancelled, but realized even more
