Kura Honored with CES Innovation Award, Pioneering First Person View Multimodal AI with AR12/27/2023 SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 19, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Kura, a pioneer and leader in generative multimodal AI and widest-FOV augmented reality technology, today announced that the company has been recognized as a CES 2024 Innovation Award honoree for its AR glasses. The award recognizes the product's custom AI framework and powerful developer tools that provides an unrivaled user experience.
The annual CES Innovation Award program recognizes outstanding design and engineering in consumer technology products. This year's CES innovation Awards program received a record-setting number of more than 3,000 submissions and is one of the most respected and renowned awards for frontier electronic devices. This is Kura's second CES honor. "This is yet another significant milestone in Kura's journey, and this honor highlights our drive to integrate powerful artificial intelligence models with augmented reality to enhance our users' lives," said Kelly Peng, Founder of Kura. "Imagine a powerful AI virtual assistant that follows you wherever you go, recognizing real-world objects and actions, and interacting with you in a very natural way — that's what Kura will provide." (...) "The Kura glasses see what the user sees, hear what they hear, and can act as an extension of human working memory and senses. What makes Kura different is that humans get about 80% of learning and input from visuals, and all AI software and applications are competing for the user's mobile and computer screen times these days," said Chuck Alger, Kura General Manager and former member of the Microsoft Hololens and Microsoft Surface teams. "We're bringing AI from the era of phones without screens to today's modern age. Most AI wearables are simply like a speaker and microphone without a display, which is a good data collection device, but not effective at providing private input and instructions for complex tasks. Thanks to augmented reality, we can use an overlay to point out objects or places in the real world, dramatically enhancing the user experience." (...) "Kura's vivid, immersive, and clear images enable broad use cases for product design, training, production, and visualization," commented SAIC Ventures, the venture branch of SAIC Motors, one of the world's largest automotive manufacturers, who is also an strategic investor in Kura. "Enterprises in automotive and other manufacturing industries will benefit greatly from these new possibilities." (...) Source
