AWE 2024 Conference Highlights

Companies and Products

AWS GovCloud - regulated industry cloud solution, includes solutions for government entities

Flow Immersive - Most impressive data visualization company highlighted at AWE. People in the room were cheering throughout the demo. It provides 3D immersive interaction with the data. Great for communicating complex data with many variables that can be filtered in and out. With the AI enhanced flows, questions can be asked of the dataset while also asking AI to change the filters or zoom in and out on particular areas. In one example, the user was showing graphs of death rates over time for multiple countries. He ask the AI to explain what happened to cause the large increase in death rates in Cambodia on the graph. AI answered with information about the Khmer Rouge from that time period.

ForgeFX Simulators - company that provides simulation 3D, VR and AR reality applications for industry clients

GroKit Core - a spatial computing and AI platform provided by 3lbGames. It allows developers to work on XR applications, games and business solutions without having to be software coders.

PTC Holodeck - creates a virtual reality (including a data hub) of workspace so that teams can collaborate or solve spatial issues that they cannot all physically be in. Can potentially scan places that one physically cannot go to address issues in that space (mining, deep sea drilling, factory machine interiors, etc.) Uses APIs to code space, content, apps, etc. Working to teach GPT to understand and reason about spaces. Upload your world/work environment dataset to optimize your workforce. Can test ergonomics of process,

Ramblr - The Egocentric Data Company - recognized AR has been good for spaces but limited in content. Believe that their approach is the intersection of spatial computing and generative AI. Combines spatial computing with generative AI to create more accurate and contextually aware models. Works in quality control and troubleshooting in real time. AI system learns from what you do in your work for context, trains AI to understand the world as the user sees it. Can help correct if an operator is deviating from the correct protocol, can document process to save time in documentation manually, serve as a coach for the apprentice.

Spatial AI - customer segmentation, datasets built directly from organic consumer behavior, connecting demographics with psychographic and behavioral insights. Datasets are built from location data from cell phones as well as how those users interact with apps and services on their phones (GPS data, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, app usage permissions, social media check-ins, etc.) Companies can upload customer data files to the secure platform to integrate. Used to develop very targeted marketing.

Transfr - a classroom to career company that provides work-based learning. Provide a platform where students can explore careers before committing to them. Also allows companies to train in a low risk environment. XD, ID, XRD

Treedis - No code studio to reduce downtime on the factory floor, utilities, airports, etc. where staff with VR glasses and AI assistant can bring in experts in real time to troubleshoot issues and make repairs.

ZAUBAR: GenAI-powered Metaverse Solution | AR & AI Platform - Zaubar uses spatial agents to create immersive, location-based augmented reality (AR) experiences. These spatial agents help in mapping real-world locations and overlaying digital content, such as historical information, interactive elements, and multimedia, onto these physical spaces. This allows users to explore and interact with their surroundings in a more engaging and informative way. Created AR tours of Dachau Concentration Camp where they embedded pictures from WW2 in the camp (pictures of prisoners standing in barracks, etc.) to augment physical tours of the site.
