You are looking at the future of public transportation. Thanks for being here. Enjoy the weather, it is amazing. Drone . Is a an upscale super drunk. Fully electric. Who would pilot it . Fully economists. It was built as an urban air taxi. Theseuld request one of and it would take you it is fair over. Right now, 70 mile range. Less than two hours. We want to introduce you to mike chen. What is your role . Im the engineering manager. Give us an overview of the company. Technologyalize in that is meant to improve lives and changes. What is this . This is used in a factory environment. Visioneant to show the we have. When you look at this, im presuming this is relatively Old Technology or not question mark the technology itself is up to the user, but it can be applied into new applications. Robot, correct . Correct. Who is this question mark this is bill. He is a mobile robot. It allows for improved productivity at the factory level. What is its function question mark he is what is his function . Mints. Eliver mens is he going to run into you me . He will not touch you. What kind of technology . , i o ai it is navigating the map that the user sets forth. To do want to program it something, you teach it to map and then it finds its way around. Radius. Gree when you talk about the ai , what does that mean . It, you do notch will navigate it or whether there are other obstacles. It lures the best path over repetition. So you told to go from point a to point b question mark you dont care how it gets a how it gets . They can see it is surrounding. This custom payload of top could thatr more applications are disturbing water. These can be used in a factory or Hotel Environment . It is helping people with disabilities and take it to their gate for them. There is another version we can do now or later. In the hospital, there are a lot of pharmaceuticals. Are models that can to make surever the right person is taking the right pharmaceutical. What else are you demonstrating question mark quite a few different technologies. We have is the mass customization. Not just mass customization. They want technology to be personal. This would be an example of that. If you can imagine having it with me. Lets say you want to make you. Hing very personal for productsll of our custommade. As an example, if you want something personalized, this andd be a Laser Engraver for you. A couple years ago, 3d printing was the thing to we have used 3d printing as well. Humans and technology mix. The machine did the work and people do the creation. What is your day job . Interact withs customers and what their needs. Re from a company so you have an engineering degree . I do. Part, butat you take is it mostly online. The Human Element is important. It is a human way to think about technology. Ai. Ets go back to the what is this . It is a very long acronym that i do not memorize myself. He was the god of inspiration in this is a perfect illustration between humanogy and machine. Is he learning how to play . It knows how to play. It is trying to learn the player. Is improving to make the player better. What is the purpose . It is a tutor robot for pingpong. Are we allowed to play . Give it a try. Looking at the ball. What you see here at the bottom is a display that is for you. It tells you your level to give you encouragement. The robot will see how youre doing and try to give it back to you in the way that you can hit it. That gentleman was playing at 91 . That is correct. I play at 45 . The line is 45 . Thank you. Is he going to serve . Yes. It will serve the first time. Would you like to serve this time . Let me try. 49. See, it is not slamming it. What it is doing is trying to improve the number you can get. He will serve again . All right. So, he is trying to help me. Correct. He is a tutor trying to expand on your capability. Let me try one more time. From it technology perspective, youre looking at multiple robots and multiple toera systems altogether improve your pingpong game. For you camera systems. Nd the ball. Whatever [laughter] yes very nice. What is the Practical Application of this . We are not here to sell pingpong robots. We are here to show our audience that every business here is business we want to do business with. The technology is what we represent. The harmony between humans and machines. This robot this technology can be applied in and industrial field. It can be applied for Driver Safety and vehicles in vehicles. Lets look at the Driver Safety. Applicationfferent a very similar this is a very different application with similar technology. What are we seeing on the screen . You are seeing eye tracking we have a reflex that almost two minutes before we know we are tired, we will start to lose coordination between our peoples and head. That said, if you start to get drowsy or incapacitated, the , andology can detect that automaker can create different types of autonomous driving reactions to that. Car tells me im getting tired. Is that this technology . It is the same. Not just looking at blinks. You can change how often you blink. The Early Detection of your reaction, that part is where what we are showing here. This is an amazing display there. Is the point down if it is high, it is good. Our Car Companies integrating thisquestion mark technology our technology is. N 500 line devices worldwide leave lead toward Autonomous Vehicles question mark absolutely. Work withnd of people you . We are looking for all different types of people. Engineers,here are electrical engineers and also people in sports. Are you finding theres enough people in the u. S. Question mark u. S. . Are there enough people qualified to work there . We are Global Corporation and have engineers all around the world. We are investing in the United States and we are hiring here. Thanks for the tour. We appreciate it. What is dji . We are mostly known for quad copters, but over the last two years we have Ground Breaking technology and putting it to work. You do not use the word drone. Drones. People call it we are thinking about what it does for people which is about imaging capture and analyzing. What we seeing in the cage . Version ofthe newest our flagship. The upgrade we released making it about 50 quieter. We can have a normal conversation. What is the use for . A wide variety multiple use it for travel, weddings or real estate. We are also seeing it use for other professional applications to go inr than having cherry pick, just fly down the line. How many drones are out there right now . Has estimates. It is a new field. Not alone has the information. In the millions . Absolutely. Regulation of drones . Regulators news is want the same time something same thing. Categoriesogical restrict the amount of people that have access to it. We are working together with regulators to meet those challenges. Who is controlling this right now . Back behindntleman the cage question mark thats gentleman back behind the cage . Thats right. The amount of information that can capture, you have a license by the faa . Depends, it costs about five dollars to be done quickly online. If you want to start making money using a drone, then you have to go through certification process. Weve been hearing about drone deliveries. Is that a reality in the future . The potential of drone. Elivery is exciting theres a combination of regulatory challenge and technological challenge. The technology, we need longer endurance, the ability to fly beyond line of sight and on the regulatory side, flying through cities, over people is still highly restricted. You cannot fly beyond lines of sight without a waiver. There are some challenges isween where the technology and where some companies wanted to be. I saw a bigger drone. [indiscernible] same . Ics or the it is a matter of mitigating the risks. [indiscernible] fly before you get it up in the air and also operational aredards, making sure you not flying close to people or infrastructure. Are they self stabilized . Yes. Started. Here dgi dji started. Cases,. This is a good size drone. Go up to 10,000, 12,000. This is really use for detailed inspection work. Mapping is a big application for drone like this. Could you webcast live with the drone question mark absolutely. A live feedull out and it shows up on their phone in realtime up to seven dormers away. My background was in so and doingy years ago government policy work. Someone called up and said do you want to work for this company question mark company . This one could also be used for moviemaking . Yes. Other piece of technology are wanted to ask about. It stabilizes a camera while it is in motion. It stabilizes smartphone footage so you can create cinematic drone videos. Are curious to understand what is the potential . Many people have heard about Drone Technology for several years. Now, it is what can i do with that . What about privacy concerns . [indiscernible] ways applied to drones as well. This is a Company Called the products and we are this is the underwater drone we wanted. You have a forte camera. 130 feet deep in the water. It can see what is underwater. At . Ho is driving is driving iteone for the first time. We let people try to control it. My colleague has the controller. We will look at that and a minute. What is the application of an underwater drone . It is designed for recreational use. You can use it for diving. You can see the fish when you go fishing. You can take videos of that. You can detect the bottoms of boats. Are there any industrial applications . Inspections of pipelines . You could use that for that as well. I can only go 130 feet. Is this on the market yet . No. It is our prototype. The plan is to release and a couple of months. Factory is in china. Our company is from hong kong. Thank you for showing us that the underwater drone. We are on location in las vegas for the consumer electronic show. We are going to talk to a company which produces a product called beam. We are here in vegas. We want to talk to dominique who is in colorado. How is nevada . It is very sunny today. Not raining, which is nice. This is our latest model. We have a release date of summer 2018. The screen you are looking at has an integrated touch screen. You can edit and collaborate information safely and securely. Has the ability to increase and decrease the say i needed to communicate with a larger group of people and i needed it to be more robust . Or i needed to work amongst conference people i could decrease my height. You and i can edit and collaborate. I do not even need to leave my house. What is the technology to connect us right now . I have two wifi radios on this model. Around, this will ping a stronger signal and disconnect. There is never an interruption in service. A 3g lte bar. I can go anywhere yourself and can go. Your cell phone can go. This is not a robot. Nothing is automated yet. I have complete control. I am using my laptop in colorado. It is super easy. It is in the app store. You havent your finger over the touch screen and the device will follow that route. I will share my user interface with you. This is what i am looking at. Can see the tips of your toast to the top of your head. I want to be able to adjust to what you feel comfortable with. I can back up. I can give them personal space. Element back human to teleconferencing. This is my user interface. It will be slightly different for our release in the summer. It is really simple and intuitive. If i hover my mouse in the lower quadrant, you can see these blue lines appear. That is my predicted driving. I should not drive over there. Maybe i can make that turn tighter. It is pretty simple. What is the application of Something Like this . Telemedicine, education, manufacturing oversight. Any subject matter. Im a busy ceo checking up on Manufacturing Activity a familiar face checking up on a relative in their home. If we want to know the key conditions are . Im going to break a rule and show you some stuff. Ok. There we go. Tell us a little bit about suitable tech. We arent in amazing company. I am proud to work with them. We are an amazing company.
