1、The AI that could change Hollywood
Researchers at the University of Iowa have created an artificially intelligent algorithm that helps to determine whether a film will be able to make a profit.
The algorithm uses a variety of factors such as the actors involved, genre and what the film is about and combines them into a massive data set.
The algorithm uses the data to then determine whether a film will be profitable.
2、Crowdfunded smartpatch aims to put snoring to bed
A device which could reduce the sound of snoring is set to launch this year.
The Silent Partner smartpatch works using noise cancelling technology often found in headphones. A counter sound to the snore is emitted from the device cancelling out the sound of the snoring itself - in theory giving sleeping partners a better night’s rest.
The product debuted on a crowdfunding website and raised over £265,000 ($380,000) in its campaign.
Production on the smartpatch will begin later this year after further testing.
3、Will 3D-printed running shoes take off?
While 3D printing has become more common in recent years, the 3D-printed clothes industry is still in its infancy.
At this year’s CES tech show, BBC Click’s Jen Copestake tried out various 3D-printed items including a dress, glasses and runners.
The runners were from New Balance and 3D Systems and are the world’s first commercially available running shoe with a 3D-printed midsole.
The shoes are due to go on sale this April but the price has not yet been released.
