I have done some research on this topic myself, and it seems that Apple is really pushing into services this time around, especially with its card. The target market for this is most directly Apple enthusiasts, and I think it is meant to be appealing to those who are in the “Apple Ecosystem”. The ecosystem comprises of all Apple products, from…[Read more]

This is a really interesting concept, in that it targets such a niche market. Your average consumer will most likely never use this on a daily basis, but for higher-up individuals in organizations it is a possibility. The businesses could potentially partner with Blade to offer packages for its employees to bypass these common traffic issues. My…[Read more]

I really like the idea of an updated hospital wristband. By integrating technology such as this, better tracking could greatly increase efficiency and assist in identifying any bottlenecks. With the scanning feature for QR codes, I could see doctors and nurses being able to quickly access patient data on phones or tablets, rather than those old…[Read more]

Great insight on the AirPods! I actually didn”t know where the memes originated, but now I do. I definitely see them being more prominent right now and that has helped boost sales. I remember hearing that some of their iPhones did not have the best sales so this is a great way for investors to see Apple can still produce great products, as you…[Read more]

I really enjoyed this piece of technology that was released. I did not see the advertisement during the Super Bowl, but the other day I did watch a video on LinkedIn about this controller and some of the kids who were able to use this technology. It is really amazing to see something like this being created because it allows kids with disabilities…[Read more]

The article that I found focuses on the US and China working with AI to help in the field of healthcare, particularly children’s health. Researchers from China and US spoke about AI allowing doctor’s the ability […]

I find this advancement in technology fascinating, and great for the future of medicine. The fact that this is already use in China is disappointing, though. It seems that China has been quicker to the punch in these facets in recent years. I hope this makes it to the United States (and the rest of the world) very soon. 85% is such a high number, and it is probably higher than diagnoses from doctors. I wonder how this technology will affect the jobs of medical doctors in the future.

I believe that Steve Jobs was a great presenter. He knew how to tell a story and understood that boring the audience with tons of words on a PowerPoint would not benefit him or his company. He understood the value of people’s time and made it a point to make presentations, such as keynotes, memorable. Though he was well-known for his presentation…[Read more]

I think that the most important takeaway from Maurice’s talk was that data is everywhere and can be used for virtual anything. I learned that the way data is used to make decisions over time has changed significantly due to the advent of new technologies, and the way we can use date to help ourselves is numerous. Overall, I learned that data plays…[Read more]

I disagree with the post because I think we can apply the theory of disruptive innovation right away. While the pricing is not available yet, we can infer that the only cost come from the controller and the games themselves. In traditional gaming system the most highest expense is the gaming console as they sometime cost hundreds of dollars.
This Google Stadia going to disrupt this market as it might implement a cheaper monthly fee system that can reach a greater numbers of gamers. Stadia can allow gamers enjoys their game without an enormous upfront cost.
I think that this is actually a great example of sustaining innovation, and isn’t disruptive at all. Google isn’t the first entrant into the game streaming market. PlayStation and Nvidia who are both known for making hardware typically associated with traditional gaming are already in the game streaming market. The difference between what they offer and what Google is planning on offering is that Google allows you to stream to any device, unlike Playstation and Nvidia who have locked their streaming service to specific device classes. Also, Google is launching a controller that directly connects to its streaming servers in an attempt to alleviate one of the biggest grievances with gamers who use game streaming, input lag. With those things considered, I think that this new service is a clear example of sustaining innovation.
