researchers and entrepreneurs are
booting huge efforts to give eyes to
machines
such as cars
robots or even drones
yet this effort is invested with the
human aspect in the center of our
innovation
today I’m
about a specific field of artificial
intelligence
bitter vision and how it can enhance our
human connection
but first let me tell you the story of
my friend Wendy
Wendy lost her side six years ago from a
brain injury
they would see anymore
and what intrigued me in her story not
the way of survivor she is good in it
but the way she misses the simplest form
of human connection
organizing the face or seeing a smile
Wendy is among many others who are
living with visual impairment
speak one person each five seconds was
blind
at worth mentioning that they are more
than 285 millions visually impaired
person or the Dwight this is huge so we
kept working with Wendy among others
with similar condition trying to design
a solution that can help
that can improve the quality of life
but before I show you this solution may
I ask you all to close your eyes for a
moment please
just for a moment
try to imagine life as windy sees it
please keep your eyes closed
imagine you just got out of your home
you see nothing
you can smell the fresh air of the
morning
and you started to feel a little bit
cold in your face
suddenly started to hear the footsteps
of someone moving towards you
you have no idea who he or she might be
the person is coming closer but still
isn’t close enough to talk to
let’s started to feel curious who is
this person
allows curl is his person going to it me
you may open your eyes please
now imagine you have this
– boy and ask with that
speaking a new personal companion for
supplying to pursue a joyful life with
more independence
so now Wendy and
Isis and
her family and friends and she can speak
in a very natural way being something
what do you see
where are my keys
thanks for me
solution is the first step in a longer
way
obvious that a blind person is support
from computer vision
about sighted people
as humans we are curious to see what we
cannot see
we invented from that microscope to see
the small things does a telescope to see
safar things
our eyes are designed to see a very
narrow view from the reward
this is only what we can see and if we
convert our world our vision to bird for
example will see us that our eyes are
really primitive devices Burt can see
much more color than us
I’ll travel as a magnetic field
you can see a
field of view because we have a little
dot in our eyes called the fovea with
the only point of high definition and
the other is blurred
let’s try something can any of us put
the bird in this picture me raise your
hand
nice
the birds here
this was just a funny exam but what if
it’s a really dangerous situation and we
need to spot this danger in a fraction
of a second because we have a tiger here
you might not be possible yet with the
current state of AI but as soon as we
compensate vision for suppliant
we’ll be able to have a richer vision
that can go beyond our physical
capabilities
provision
but where else ai and computer vision
could help
I’ll tell you another story
when I was 10 years old it was my first
time to see the picture of my
grandfather on the cover of Los Angles
Times
this award was an inventor for me was my
hero
as a child I was inspired by him and
what he’s bring for life
best friend
and when my father died and he moved to
live with us his friendship became even
closer
later I started to forget
father was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s
how painful it felt when he cannot
realize my face or struggles remember my
name
later I started to question myself
are we our memories
and what happened when we lose this
association its beloved one moments of
the of joy love or even frustration and
we cannot recall them anymore
half of us what suffer from memory loss
as a normal part of Aging
cover fears our thrilled work was
specialists and memory diseases
trying to focus on designing solutions
that can help cope with life while
forgetting
is what we found
person forget the name of an object and
this in some cases of aphasia
simple recognition can help to retrieve
the wall something will exist
see
so farmers
Merson forbid the use of a certain
object I think a description like this
could help
coffee machine would you like to know
how to use it and also shipping list
would be fun remember buy milk and
cheese this solutions can run on phones
or on a special wearables but what about
severe cases when the person cannot use
any kind of devices anymore
in that case the solution is installed
in their houses learns about their daily
life routine so imagine a person
struggles in his kitchen one afternoon
the solution can simply detect him until
good afternoon this is the lunchtime
shall I display a video of how to
prepare your favorite Spanish omelette
this is the medication you need to take
before you can also show it to me to
confirm that it’s the right one and if
you want me to play your favorite music
please say play music this was for
memory diseases but where is a fine line
between memory diseases and normal
forgetting
very fast-moving and noisy world around
us and we tend to forget
and we don’t want to forget
the moments that matter to us so some of
us will say we take mixture from our
devices to save some moments it’s not
working I will tell you why
taking from our devices most likely will
not get back to scrubs em again
pictures are not assisted with emotions
pictures are out of context
market my place or they wish no sorry
context
that must be another solution to save
moments that matter to us
now imagine if we can if we can extend
our memory and Link it to the outside
physical world you can simply scan an
object and that can remind us by its so
it’s story
a gift from my wife Lisa and stir damn
summer 2010 imagine if we can save
special moments linked this moment
the person
to an object as our emotions
linked to a special event put them into
a context
my nephew okay
six weeks ago
first meeting with them
now I just created a memory a new memory
relying with Adam
the future I will be able to recall this
moment linked to Adam or to my joy or
love emotions
I can even hear his first cry or his
first love with me
and what the help was the same
technology a person like my grandfather
will not confuse names of his beloved
ones
struggle to Berber his favourite Spanish
omelette
and windy and explore life in a new
different way
ladies and gentlemen
fortunate witness a new era of emerging
technologies
and if we start using these technologies
to help people with their vision and
memory we all will benefit and we will
have a richer vision and an extended
memory
talk
when you with the human aspect
not only machines in the center of our
innovation
we’ll enjoy much better human connection
with ourselves and with others
and we’ll be able to score other victory
for the human
thank you
