Fashion industry ‘waking up’ to benefits of blockchain technology, robotics

Blockchain and robotics are becoming increasingly popular in the global fashion industry as brands look to increase transparency and improve efficiencies, according to GlobalData. While it is still in its infancy, blockchain technology has the potential to transform the global supply chain, says Michelle Russell, apparel correspondent at GlobalData. She says that during the last few years, the adoption of blockchain technology amongst apparel and textile companies has grown substantially as the pressure to have more visibility in the supply chain ramps up. “Its uses are varied as companies use the ledger to address problems in unethical behaviour, excess waste, the origin of goods, and counterfeiting.” German start-up Retraced recently launched a blockchain-based transparency solution that it is trialling with a number of fashion brands. Other examples include OpenSC which received US$4 million in seed funding for its platform that aims to build transparency around commodities know...

AI solutions package released for identifying and triaging stroke

Aidoc , a provider of AI solutions to radiologists, has released its complete AI package for the identification and triage of stroke in CT scans. The CE-marked solution flags and prioritises vascular occlusions which result in both ischemic and haemorrhagic strokes. The stroke package, comprising the new CE-marked Large-Vessel Occlusion AI module and Aidoc’s already FDA-cleared and CE-marked intracranial hemorrhage AI module reduces “door-to-needle” time for patients suffering from stroke. Dr. Eyal Morag, medical director of Aidoc, said: “When creating an AI solution for stroke, it’s all about providing solutions where time matters most. Aidoc augments the radiologist’s workflow with life-saving technology, assuring medical providers that there are no delays in treatment for patients suffering from a stroke – be it haemorrhagic or ischemic.” Aidoc’s complete stroke package ensures that both ischemic and haemorrhagic stroke sufferers are prioritised in worklists immediately. The...

Man-made brainpower can add to a more secure world

We as a whole observe the features consistently. An automaton disturbing the airspace in one of the world's busiest air terminals, putting flying machine in danger (and burdening countless travelers) or assaults on basic framework. Or then again a shooting in a position of love, a school, a town hall. Regardless of whether crude (explosive) or bleeding edge (unmanned airborne vehicles) in an inappropriate hands, innovation can enable awful on-screen characters and put our general public in danger, making a feeling of defenselessness and dissatisfaction. Current ways to deal with securing our open scenes are not capable, and, honestly seem to meet Einstein's meaning of craziness: "doing likewise again and again and anticipating an alternate outcome." It is a great opportunity to look past conventional protection advancements and check whether more up to date methodologies can tilt the pendulum back in the protector's support. Man-made reasoning (AI) can assume a ...
