🚀Recent AI Feats 🚀

1. EchoSpeech: Cornell University researchers have developed EchoSpeech, a wearable interface that uses acoustic-sensing and AI to recognize up to 31 unvocalized commands based on lip and mouth movements. The low-power device can be run on a smartphone and requires minimal user training. The technology shows potential for assisting those who cannot vocalize sound, such as patients using voice synthesizers. Additionally, EchoSpeech allows for silent communication via a smartphone in noisy or quiet environments and can be paired with design software, reducing the need for a keyboard and mouse. The system operates using microphones and speakers embedded in eyeglasses and analyzes soundwaves and mouth movements with approximately 95% accuracy in real-time using a deep learning algorithm. This technology improves performance, privacy, and wearability compared to camera-based alternatives.

2. Helping Dementia Patients: Engineers at the University of Waterloo have developed a new method to program robots that can help people with dementia locate lost items like medicine, glasses, and phones. The technology has the potential to assist anyone who has experienced the frustration of misplacing belongings. By equipping companion robots with artificial intelligence and episodic memory, researchers aim to enhance independence and improve the quality of life for individuals with dementia. The robot uses an object-detection algorithm and a camera to detect, track, and log specific objects, recording their entry and exit times. Users can select objects to be tracked and easily search for them using a smartphone app or computer. The system has shown high accuracy in tests and will undergo further user studies, including with individuals without disabilities and those with dementia.
