Telechronics (Ademar Days of opinion): RGPD, robots, cryptocurrency… the future is so close.
We went back to talk of the General Regulation on Data Protection (RGPD). The news come from a study of the European Commission.
According to the Eurobarometer, only 67% of respondents have heard of RGPD. Of these, about half heard and know what it is, others heard, but they do not know exactly what it is. Values ​​range between 90% Sweden and the 44% in France.
When it comes to the rights guaranteed by the regulations, 73% They said they heard at least one of the six rights-base RGPD. 31% I was even aware of the six rights which constitute the law, while 27% They never heard of any of them.
The European Commission also announced that it is being prepared a new campaign of awareness of people about their privacy rights, as well as to encourage reading of declarations and optimization of your privacy settings in various sites.
Humanization of Robots is a process booming.
Now comes the news that a Science Laboratory Robot Computer and Artificial Intelligence (CSAIL) MIT is being developed in order to identify objects by touch and image, in other words, the "touch" and the "vision".
To achieve this goal, researchers have added a touch sensor to a robotic arm GelSight KUKA. This sensor has been "taught" by AI (AI) learn about visual and tactile information.
To identify objects by touch, the team noted more 12000 videos of 200 objects to be touched. Between them, tissue, tools and other household goods. After, these video images were divided into static images so that the AI ​​was able to link data between touch the visual component.
For a while, the robot can only identify objects in a controlled environment, but the next step is to build a larger set of data so that the robot can work in diverse settings.
