Robot, counterfeiting and navigation systems for visually impaired based on generative artificial intelligence (AI) are among the innovations that are presented at the Vivatech trade fair, which takes place in Paris until Saturday.
AI against counterfeits
Could you recognize the difference between a Lacoste t-shirt and a fake with the famous crocodile logo? This is the challenge that the French start-up VRAI AI faces. Its AI model can recognize fake products based on the analysis of a photo.
“The AI can recognize microfeals”, which are made by the manufacturers: inside of counterfeiting; Regardless of whether it is a prêt-à-porter clothing, banknotes or even malaria medics, Hugo Garcia-Cott, co-founder of the start-up, told the AFP. He adds: “This is more reliable than people.”
The Lacoste brand has been testing this solution internally since November. The customs authorities of countries such as Cameroon and Senegal are also interested.
Shoes to support visually impaired people
It is pushed into a shoe and vibrated. Combined with an app on the cell phone, the innovation of the Japanese start-up Ashirase is a tool that is supposed to help visually impaired people move. “We use AI to get a precise positioning by combining the data of the sensors of the device with the location data of the smartphone,” emphasizes development manager Ryohei Tokuda. The users: All you have to do is program your goal and be guided by the vibrations.
Supported by the automobile manufacturer Honda, Ashirase has already introduced its product in Japan and wants to expand to Europe, especially Germany from September.
