Intel announced that technological progress and initiatives that affect the way in which we use electronics. Among the announcements was the Intel module Curie button size for use in the type of wearable, further shows new applications for cameras RealSense, including robots, flying drones and 3D graphics. It also presents a new, broad-based initiative “Diversity in Technology,” which includes a $ 300 million investment to increase the diversity of the entire technology industry.
Intel CEO Brian Krzanich, said this during his speech at the International Consumer Electronics Show 2015. He also co-operation of the device Oakley wearable with the company, the industry leader in sports eyewear. Moreover told HP cooperation in the field of 3D printing, as well as the True Key – a new, multi-platform applications from Intel Security, which uses facial recognition or fingerprint to logon easier and safer.
Revolution wearable devices
Krzanich Intel announced plans Curie module, based on a miniature SoC, designed specifically for wearable solutions. The device is slated for release in the second half of this year and will include Intel SoC Quark SE, Bluetooth low-power, sensors and battery charging unit.
Also mentioned a number of products and initiatives, developed in cooperation with the fashion, sports and lifestyle’owymi. Include Basis Peak, Fossil Group, Luxottica Group, MICA and Opening Ceremony and SMS Audio.
Intel and Oakley announced a strategic collaboration on wearable devices. Oakley is the first company owned by Luxottica Group, of which Intel is working to create glasses with intelligent technology. During a speech to Brian Krzanicha joined Colin Baden, CEO of Oakley, who said that companies come together to form an intelligent product that will be available this year and help athletes achieve the best results.
Krzanich told, moreover, Nixie -, the first wearable camcorder that summer. Nixie rests on your wrist like a bracelet, as if on cue, develops and rises to fly to the best shot of his owner. Krzanich invited on stage artists Nixie, Christoph Kohstalla and Jelena Jovanovic, together to talk about the competition “Make it Wearable” and provide opportunities that this competition offers inventors and entrepreneurs. Brian Krzanich and creator of Nixie zapozowali the first air photos, taken by the device. Krzanich also revealed that this year, Intel will once again sponsor “Make it Wearable”.
Promoting diversity in the technology industry
During his speech at CES Brian Krzanich also announced the initiative “Diversity in Technology”. According to the assumptions will be new targets for the recruitment of staff, so that by the year 2020 decreased disparity in the number of employed men and women and was taken to work more minorities, which are currently under-represented. This plan will be implemented also in managerial positions.
Intel also plans to invest $ 300 million in helping to create a forge talent emerging engineers and computer scientists from women and minorities, in actively supporting the employment of more women and underrepresented minorities, and the funding of programs to support more equitable structure of employment in the sector of new technologies and games .
The form is also planning to collaborate with several industry partners to support, expand or create new programs for the initiative, including organizations such as the International Game Developers Association, E-Sports League, National Center for Women in Technology, CyberSmile Foundation, Feminist Frequency and Rainbow PUSH. The company also plans to deepen its involvement in educational programs at primary schools, focused on neglected areas of science, and to enhance cooperation with universities, which educate engineers and computer scientists.
Greater convenience for users
So far, human interaction with computers was done with the use of the screen, keyboard and mouse. Krzanich introduced several new technologies and useful applications that users are freed from cables and passwords. Demonstrated a number of features that will be included in a variety of products at the end of the year, including True Key, a new cross-platform application from Intel Security, having to deal with the problem of passwords. True Key application uses facial recognition or fingerprint to logon easier and safer. True Key supports iOS, Android, Windows, Mac, and all popular browsers. It will also be installed on the HP and Lenovo, as well as part of the McAfee LiveSafe in the coming months. Access to the True Key, visit www.truekey.com.
Krzanich also announced new partnerships for the wireless charging technology, concluded with firms Hilton, Jaguar Land Rover, San Francisco International Airport and Marriott. As part of this collaboration are planned pilot development and implementation in the field of wireless charging – for example, Marriott plans to offer wireless charging pilot in hotels of its brands, JW Marriott, Marriott, Renaissance, Courtyard and Residence Inn.
Intel CEO also talked about Intel RealSense cameras which new applications can be found in an increasing number of devices 2 in 1, tablets, notebooks and all-in-one, many of them equipped with the new Intel Core fifth generation, available in the current quarter .
Krzanich then invited on stage Dion Weisler, vice Printing and Personal Systems, HP. Weisler told how HP is working on ecosystem “mixed reality” and said that the Intel Core i7 processor technology will be the basis for future HP Multi Jet Fusion, developed to address important gaps in the speed, quality and cost. Weisler said that the increased efficiency of Intel’s technology is the key to making full use of the potential of 3D printing.
Smart solutions anywhere
Krzanich pointed out some areas where flowering smart computing solutions, helping to change daily life. Presented practical examples of robots and drones, and told how Intel RealSense cameras can provide intuitive collision avoidance mechanisms based on image analysis, that solve more complex problems. For example, the company intends to use Ascending Technologies Intel RealSense cameras to create a smart and secure wielowirnikowych drones, while iRobot is working with Intel on the use of this technology in intelligent, automated devices.
CES (Consumer Electronics Show) is the leading trade fair for consumer electronics and new technologies in the world. Held since 1967 and continuously gather the largest manufacturers of all major market areas. They share their new achievements, present products that soon hit the market and present plans for the long term. The event, currently taking place in Los Angeles, helps predict how the world of technology will look for the next year.
