Automation is revolutionizing legacy industries from healthcare and precision medicine to manufacturing and construction, to agriculture and sustainability. The adoption of visual technology innovations will continue to remain the crux of automation for the next decade and beyond.
Read MoreFor far too long, sustainability has been viewed by big companies as more of a marketing campaign or non-profit exercise than a direct financial impact on their bottom line. But the tides are, literally, changing and advances in visual data collection, computer vision and AI are at a point where climate tech companies can leverage it to build businesses that provide financial benefit to mitigating climate impact. See more details in Evan Nisselson’s article.
Read MoreLiDAR technology is a key solution but adoption of LiDAR has been limited by cost and size until our LDV portfolio company Voyant Photonics. At LDV Capital, we are thrilled to partner with the Voyant team toward their vision of enabling computers to see in 3D.
Read MoreOur second interview in Women Leading Visual Tech series is with Dr. Michal Lipson.
Michal is the Eugene Higgins Professor of Electrical Engineering at Columbia University and a member of the National Academy of Science. Her research work is focused on nanophotonics.
At last year’s LDV Vision Summit, Dr. Nicholas Harris – Founder & CEO of Lightmatter – gave a keynote speech on the next-generation computing platform they are building for AI and its value for autonomous vehicles in the next 5, 10, 20 years.
Nicholas holds a Ph.D. from Massachusetts Institute of Technology, his doctoral thesis was on programmable nanophotonics for quantum information processing and artificial intelligence.
At LDV Vision Summit, we highlight experts working on cutting edge technologies and trends across every sector of business and society. We do not repeat speakers and we are honored that many attendees join every year.
