y amuletos de la suerte
son la principal causa de muerte
pero recuerdo mi primer accidente.
vi que encendió las luces de frenos
está bajando la velocidad,
en medio de la autopista.
seguía en movimiento
Se encuentran en una burbuja de vidrio.
a velocidades sobrehumanas.
para esta tarea,
Esta es la manera segura de conducir.
Porque tenemos que hacerlo,
le prestamos atención en la carretera.
información entre ellos,
del auto que tenemos delante,
no es imposible.
durante la última media hora.
a 85 millas por hora.
del comportamiento de los autos.
entre vehículos,
más o menos, y hacia dónde van.
pudiesen compartir esa información,
incluso con poco tráfico,
de simulación por computación
que tienen los sensores reales
de corto alcance,
entonces se debe priorizar,
las trayectorias predecidas,
también se sabe cómo.
para que se quite del camino.
"Necesitas quitarte del camino"?
o ya saben, haciendo otra cosa,
está mirando hacia adelante,
van a estar observándonos,
que proteja nuestra privacidad,
su auto desde afuera,
de nosotros a nuestra espalda.
el adolescente distraído detrás de ustedes
ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Jennifer Healey - Research scientistA research scientist at Intel, Jennifer Healey develops the mobile internet devices of the future.
Why you should listen
Jennifer Healey imagines a future where computers and smartphones are capable of being sensitive to human emotions and where cars are able to talk to each other, and thus keep their drivers away from accidents. A scientist at Intel Corporation Research Labs, she researches devices and systems that would allow for these major innovations.
Healey holds PhD from MIT in electrical engineering and computer science. While there, she pioneered “Affective Computing” with Rosalind Picard and developed the first wearable computer with physiological sensors and a video camera that allows the wearer to track their daily activities and how they feel while doing them. From there, she moved to IBM where she worked on the next generation of multi-modal interactive smartphones and helped architect the "Interaction Mark-Up language" that allows users to switch from voice to speech input seamlessly.
Healey has also used her interest in embedded devices in the field of healthcare. While an instructor at Harvard Medical School and at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, she worked on new ways to use heart rate to predict cardiac health. She then joined HP Research in Cambridge to further develop wearable sensors for health monitoring and continued this research when she joined Intel Digital Health.
