I received a comment to one of my posts on Digital Twins pointing to a White Paper produced by NTT researchers and introducing a new twist on Digital Twins, Digital Twin Computing. We are seeing a tremendous uptake of Digital Twins by industry, their adoption in the IoT framework and …

The White Paper being prepared by the Digital Reality Initiative is fundamentally about the fading boundary between reality and digital reality, actually it is about the emergence of Reality resulting from the co-presence of these two realities. These two manifest themselves in the creation of digital worlds like images that are …

The amount of literature on Digital Transformation is staggering—and it keeps growing. Why, then, the Digital Reality Initiative is planning to come out with yet another such document? Moreover, any text aiming at explaining the Digital Transformation by presenting a snapshot is going to become obsolete in a blink of …

Alice was in front of the looking glass and found herself climbing into it and wandering into an amazing new world. Today we are doing the same, using technology evolution as the ladder to climb into the digital world. The problem is that, like in Alice’s dream, it is getting …

I am in Estonia today, giving a lecture on Digital transformation, and I want to pay homage to this Country that is really active in trying out many aspects of  the Digital Economy. They have been able not just to move plenty of services and processes on line, including the …

In these last few days we have been flooded by tech news from CES 2020 in Las Vegas. No point in repeating all of that on this post. If you missed something just google for CES 2020 (at the time of writing of this post a Google search on CES …

We have already had 5 drone generations (not considering military drones) with the 6th in the deployment and the 7th in the making: Basic Remote Control Fixed camera, low res video recording and digital images, manual control Assisted piloting (obstacle avoidance), 2 axes gimbal camera mounting, HD recording Autopilot mode, …

In the last post I looked at very short term forecast, what is likely to happen to drones this year, 2020. Let’s now shift the horizon further down in time. Several “experts” are betting that flying cars will become part of the landscape in the next decade, 2030 onwards.  A …

In this blog I often discussed Cloud, Sensors, AI, VR, 5G, WLAN, 3D printing and the various use cases, may be never considering all of them together. Indeed, there are plenty of application areas for these technologies and the more they evolve the broader their application areas become. Having said …
