Join us for a conversation with legendary inventor and technology visionary Dean Kamen. In his 2018 keynote presentation at the Embedded Vision Summit, Kamen memorably predicted that embedded vision capabilities would eventually become as common as limit switches—i.e., used universally to enable systems to understand their environments. In today’s on-stage conversation, Jeff Bier, Founder of the Edge AI and Vision Alliance, will catch up with Dean on how visual AI is currently being used in his projects. These include mobile robots (developed by his company, DEKA Research and Development), new processes for the large-scale manufacturing of engineered tissues and tissue-related technologies (led by Kamen’s Advanced Regenerative Manufacturing Institute) and the educational programs organized by the FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) program. Dean and Jeff will explore where visual AI is paying off as Dean envisioned, and what challenges are limiting his projects from realizing its full potential.
