Project Tango is a platform that uses computer vision to give devices the ability to understand their position relative to the world around them. It’s just like how you use your eyes to find your way to a room, to know where in the room you are, and know where the floor, the walls, and objects around you are. These physical relationships are an essential part of how we move through our daily lives....
Skild is an adaptable software service for professional challenge organizers.We originally built a competition management system to help run our own challenges, and in the process learned that other organizations had the same need.We’ve built an easy-to-use online management tool—now anyone can develop and run competitions, awards, prizes and contest promotions from start to finish.

MagiCubes® AR – Using MagiCubes® for objects & targets will deliver the haptic sensation they deserve. As users hold and play with the cubes, they discover that a 6 sided cube, transforms into a 9 or 12 panel object that engages the senses with the magic of touch. Combine your AR app with the benefits of haptic technology, will generate a positive emotion while customers touch, learn and experience your AR App with touch.

The IEEE Standards Association (IEEE-SA) is a leading consensus building organization that nurtures, develops and advances global technologies, through IEEE external link. We bring together a broad range of individuals and organizations from a wide range of technical and geographic points of origin to facilitate standards development and standards related collaboration. With collaborative thought leaders in more than 160 countries, we promote innovation, enable the creation and expansion of international markets and help protect health and public safety. Collectively, our work drives the functionality, capabilities and interoperability of a wide range of products and services that transform the way people live, work and communicate. The IEEE-SA is governed by the Board of Governors (BOG) who are elected by IEEE-SA Members. The Board of Governors oversees number of committees that are dedicated to manage key operational aspects of the IEEE-SA. The IEEE-SA Standards Board reports directly to the BOG, and oversees the IEEE standards development process. Standards Board members are elected by IEEE-SA members as a privilege of membership, and all Board Members and Committee members must be IEEE-SA members in good standing. The IEEE-SA standards development process is open to IEEE-SA Members and non-members, alike. However, IEEE-SA Membership enables standards development participants to engage in the standards development process at a deeper and more meaningful level, by providing additional balloting and participation opportunities. IEEE-SA members are the driving force behind the development of standards, providing technical expertise and innovation, driving global participation, and pursuing the ongoing advancement and promotion of new concepts. https://standards.ieee.org/...

Draw & Code are a digital creative studio based in Liverpool, UK. We are making the trip across the Atlantic to showcase our virtual and augmented reality prototypes. Our talented team of artists and programmers boast a diverse experience that allows us to make the most of emerging technologies. Our collective resume covers everything from augmented and virtual reality through to projection mapping, software development, large-scale interactive theatre sets and more. It is this intersection of art and technology that sets Draw & Code apart from the average studio. The creative minds at Draw & Code are never more excited than when we are working with emerging technologies. Recently that has included Oculus Rift, Microsoft’s Kinect v2 and Estimote Beacons. Our developments range from playful games through to art-focused projects and even cutting-edge work on enhanced, immersive architectural visualisation. At AWE we will be showcasing some of our latest augmented reality work in an app that you can download and explore at the show and when you get home. Come and meet us at AWE 2014 or take a look at www.drawandcode.com Augmented reality Virtual reality Projection mapping Film & animation Web & app development 2D/3D design & illustration http://www.drawandcode.com/...
Occipital is equal parts science lab and software startup, and develops state-of-the-art mobile computer vision applications. Occipital is venture-funded, was backed by Techstars in 2008, and is also known for developing RedLaser, a barcode-scanning application that was acquired by eBay Inc. In 2010, the company reinvented panoramas with 360 Panorama, an app which makes 360-degree image capture as simple and fast as recording a video clip. Most recently, Occipital has launched the Structure Sensor, the first 3D sensor for mobile devices. http://www.occipital.com/...
meta is a Y Combinator startup spun out of Columbia University. The meta interface brings to life the computers seen in Iron Man, Avatar and Minority Report using a sterescopic augmented reality display combined with depth input to track gestures. The interface has been in development for two years but the components have been cost-prohibitive until the last few months. With Chief Scientist Steve Mann who is also keynoting at AWE and Lead Advisor Professor Steven Feiner meta has the scientific muscle to bring about a revolution in computer interaction. meta developers are supported with an app marketplace and a matching service to connect them with professionals wanting custom apps constructed. meta has launched a Kickstarter to deliver the developer kit with $150,000 (150% of goal) in backing only halfway through the campaign. http://www.meta-view.com/...
Augmate Corporation is a next generation internet software company, we provide visual efficiency tools for businesses and consumers by merging the digital and physical worlds using eye-wear (AR Glasses) and mobile devices. We cut the tether of the laptop and break the chain of a desktop computer by placing digital information, imagery, and applications directly on top of physical world objects. Our software architecture utilizes augmented reality on mobile devices integrating with content management software to automatically display relevant information to anyone. Our digital eye-wear approach presents information where it is needed in a user’s field of view thus making people more productive and efficient. There is a 30% efficiency gain of ‘time on task’ when information is displayed directly in a user’s view. By managing and framing information, imagery, and applications, unobtrusively, in a person’s field of view, we create an immersive internet experience that enhances the way we work and live. http://www.augmate.com/...
My passion is to teach about the positive uses of emerging technologies while raising awareness to the potential downside of innovation. I have dedicated my life teaming up with ewarriors around the globe to protect the innocent in this lifelong mission. “ The greatest use of life is to spend it for something that will outlast it.” by William James is my favorite quote. http://www.ardirt.com/...
