Kickstarter: iLepo i30 3D earphones with DSP technology

Posted by – August 17, 2016

Now launched on Kickstarter iLepo i30 is Industry’s first Digital 3D earphones with DSP technology for automatic 3D space generation for any audio content. iLepo 3D’s audio processing algorithm adds spatial distribution to the sound, reconstructing the source audio in a 3D space, making the experience different compared with normal single level, two-channel stereo sound, providing a better 3D sense of space and surround audio. iLepo 3D audio Algorithm distributes the sound into 3D spaces and rebuilds them by automatically adding and substracting tiny sound delays and sound response algorithms separately in each ear to realize an experience that “feels like being there” reproducing the experience of sound coming from directions around the user, creating a new experience in listening of music, movies and games on any device.

SoftBank Pepper Humanoid Robot Business

Posted by – July 19, 2016

Before SoftBank announced their intention to acquire ARM, here’s the latest SoftBank Pepper Personal Robot with Artificial Intelligence deployed all over Japan, with voice conversations, it can Reads Emotions from people’s face. More than 11 thousand Pepper Robots have been deployed in Japan, at the entrance of SoftBank Telecom stores, and in many other stores and malls all over. Previously I interviewed Aldebaran Robotics Founder Bruno Maisonnier before he sold his company to SoftBank

My Opinion on ARM’s acquisition

Posted by – July 18, 2016
Category: Opinions

This had to happen after Brexit.

Masayoshi Son seems to be a good person, he says he wants maintain ARM’s independence while he’d like to improve ARM, but I worry if SoftBank has enough cash and future prospects to be able to sustain accelerated growth. Masayoshi Son is Japan’s richest man, but is that enough? How many Billions of dollars can SoftBank spend on accelerating ARM’s growth? Must ARM rely on the Japanese economy and on Alibaba’s stock price going forward?

While I have always been one of the biggest Google fanboys, yet I have also been very disappointed when Google doesn’t invest its cash where I think it’s needed. Hardware. I wish Google’s Alphabet would make a counter-offer, it could be at $45 Billion or so. Alphabet can afford it with their $75 Billion in cash on hand. Then ARM can be the A in Google’s Alphabet. I believe Alphabet would have enough cash and prospects for growth to fund ARM’s required accelerated growth.

The future of Technology has ARM at its core. Everything in the world needs to use ARM. It’s very important how the company is managed and how it is owned. I do wish to see technological developments surrounding ARM for it to get the proper backing in terms of cash. If SoftBank can have that type of cash and the desire to make it happen, that can be good. But I believe Alphabet has that kind of cash, I just wonder if they have the desire.

Alphabet should offer $45 Billion for ARM with all the same conditions as SoftBank. Larry Page, Sergey Brin, get to it.

One thing’s for sure. Europeans will loose control over the last remaining hope for global technological leadership. Thank you Brexit.
