Autonomous Closed-Loop Intervention System A revolutionary approach to treating heart attacks and heart failure.
The Autonomous Closed-Loop Intervention System, or ACIS, leverages the MEI Lab’s Bio Digital Twin technology to automatically treat acute myocardial infarction and acute heart failure. Specifically, it utilizes a patient’s Cardiovascular Bio Digital Twin to autonomously set targets for optimal treatment, determine the specific treatment using medications and circulatory support systems, and deliver high-quality, sustainable medical care. When every passing moment means the loss of healthy heart muscle, the ACIS has the ability to optimize, and simultaneously deliver, multiple cardiac drugs and device combination therapies while constantly updating the digital model.
The ACIS was created to render care more efficiently than a physician alone to deliver superior outcomes, all the while addressing issues of health equity with its ability to be used almost anywhere.
Security, Privacy, Integrity, and Protection Platform: A web-based suite of cutting-edge encryption tools.
Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA) is an approach to IT security that operates on the principle that users and devices should not be trusted by default. The Security, Privacy, Integrity Protection Platform (SPIP) is a web app NTT Research developed to simplify the deployment of state-of-the-art, privacy-enhancing technologies to secure and maintain data integrity for organizations employing ZTA.
SPIP puts a suite of Privacy Enhancing Technologies (P-E-Ts), including attribute-based encryption, data anonymization and secure multi-party computation, at your fingertips in an app created to provide seamless integration with existing systems. Indeed, P-E-Ts like SPIP are recognized as the ZTA solution we need by industry, government agencies, and analysts.
Thin-film lithium niobate Silicon’s successor for the computers of tomorrow.
The computing world is running up against Moore’s Law, which states the number of transistors on a chip should double every two years. We are reaching a point where silicon chips can’t hold more components. In turn, computers can’t grow substantially faster or more powerful, and the hard problems the world faces that require more speed and power remain unsolved.
Enter thin-film lithium niobate (TFLN) wafers. Because chips made of TFLN wafers utilize photons instead of electrons to transmit data, they are more efficient, using less energy because photonics generate less heat. Photonics also generate less noise or distortion caused by heat. As AI models grow in complexity, the demand for TFLN photonic chips is ever-expanding as the iterative processes used in deep learning models can involve millions or billions of mathematical calculations that, until TFLN, were heat-generating, high energy consuming processes.
Connected AI Creating the soul in AI and the heart in a robot.
We are working towards a world where technology nurtures the human spirit and AI is tailored to enhance everyday life and well-being. One of our latest breakthroughs is a Connected AI platform that uses an interactive robot named Jibo and behavioral sensors to understand and anticipate human needs.
The Connected AI system incorporates Smart IoT devices, a portal for reporting, summarization, and administration, environmental and behavioral sensors in the home, and a platform hub that manages transactions and determines future actions. Jibo serves as the system’s eyes and ears, features both facial and voice recognition, and is engineered to support engagement with entertainment and cognitive games. With sentiment analysis, self-health reporting, and advanced cognitive measurement, Connected AI represents nothing less than a new era of care that can be seamlessly woven into the fabric of daily life.
