Michael Robinson.
I’m the Director of Venture Capital Investing and Technology Research here at Money Morning.

20 million Americans who suffer from minor nearsightedness, or macular degeneration, or glaucoma...
Any form of vision impairment...
And for the 1.3 million people in this country who are legally blind...

Facebook, Yahoo!, Tesla, Amazon, LinkedIn, and Netflix are pouring millions of investment dollars into Cognitive Sight.
Silicon Valley insiders Elon Musk and Peter Thiel have led a $1 billion funding initiative.

Microsoft... $100 million.
In fact, a team at Microsoft has declared that Cognitive Sight is:
“Transforming Lives For the Blind Community.”

- Anirudh Koul & Saqib Shaikh, Microsoft
And they’re not alone.

Chieko Asakawa is a research scientist at IBM. She’s also been blind since she was 14.

7,300 patents to be exact.

Forbes predicts Cognitive Sight will provide the “building blocks” of “the world of the future".

And the Financial Times reported Cognitive Sight is expected to unlock a nearly unprecedented wave of wealth creation.

prototype of a technology called MEMS, or “microelectromechanical systems.”

These are the tiny sensors that our smartphones, smart cars, smart homes, any “smart technology” – all have embedded inside of them.

Vision is just a proxy for intelligence."
- Tomaso Paggio, MIT Department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences
In fact, MIT scientist Tomaso Paggio declared that vision is intelligence.


Cognitive Sight is the first technology that harnesses artificial intelligence to “see” the world more clearly than human eyes.
Artificial intelligence – or A.I. – is one of the hottest fields in technology today.

Cognitive Sight is what Scientific American calls:
“The Artificial Intelligence breakthrough we’ve been waiting for...”
- Scientific American
And devices like the one I’m wearing represent the first wearable A.I. technology set to be distributed on a massive scale.

The A.I.P. is the secret to Cognitive Sight.
It’s what makes it possible for this device to use artificial intelligence to interpret all of the images being captured by the lens.
It’s what makes it efficient enough to run all day, processing any kind of writing.

It’s what allows it to tell time, see colors, and identify faces of friends and family...

typical CPU consists of 8 to 10 cores...
However, the A.I.P. can hold up to 15 billion microscopic transistors.


[-chart]www.moneymappress.com/pro/images/0516_TIM_CS/0516_TIM_CS_0022.png[/chart]


This A.I.P. is at least 3,200X more powerful than the CPU you most likely have in your computer right now.

These devices are able to do this with 10,000 license plates in the same time span it took the human eye to decipher just 36.
That’s 278 times more powerful than the human eye!


Cognitive Sight device can solve this problem.
During a study at NYU, Cognitive Sight technology was able to – with 94% accuracy – distinguish between folded up dollar bills, faded $5s, torn $10s and $20s.

Microsoft has reported the results of a stunning test that found Cognitive Sight can achieve an accuracy level of 99.83% when reading handwriting.


not just English. Also Chinese and Arabic.


How does this tiny device on the side of my glasses communicate everything to a person who can’t see?
It’s really easy.
It’s a process that revolutionized the hearing aid industry: bone conduction.

Bone Conduction technology is actually so quiet, one member of the Navy’s SEAL Team 6 called it a critical tool for coordinating the onsite raid that killed Osama bin Laden – an operation requiring the utmost discretion.

So when you are looking at this Cognitive Sight device, what you are seeing is the next major breakthrough in treating vision loss.
And history has been pretty clear on this.
A big breakthrough in vision equals a big windfall.
Look at Ocata Therapeutic

Staar Surgical created Visian ICL – the first foldable intraocular lens for cataract surgery.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Topcon Corp – they patented a special microscope for eye surgery.

---------------------------------------------------------------------
LCA Vision – they are one of the pioneers of laser eye surgery.

Wired magazine reported Cognitive Sight can unlock a “new kind of brain power.”
Well, it can do even more than that.
Cognitive Sight can also:
“Become a prosthetic ‘memory support system’, bringing a new sense of independence to the cognitively impaired.”
- George Vradenburg, Chairman of UsAgainstAlzheimer's
The potential applications here are nearly limitless.
Someone with dementia could slip a Cognitive Sight headset on and perform many of the daily tasks that were slowly becoming impossible to them.

If they are having trouble remembering where they are going
– say, the corner store or post office – GPS in the headset could provide specific walking directions.
------------------------------------------------------------
“Backup Brain...”
- CBS
CBS has hailed this powerful application of Cognitive Sight as a “backup brain” for those suffering from failing memory.
Helping people manage their Alzheimer’s and dementia is already a $170 billion a year industry.

------------------------------------------------------------

worth mentioning in particular is Forest Laboratories.
They patented Namenda for treating moderate Alzheimer’s.

--------------------------------------------------------------

let’s talk about how this miraculous technology could be used to help people with Parkinson’s disease... a condition that affects over 7 million people.

Parkinson’s disease also creates mental blind spots...
And Cognitive Sight can fix them, too!
One of these blind spots can create a very dangerous phenomenon known as “freezing.”

“Freezing” happens when the legs of a person suffering from Parkinson’s stop moving, but the upper body stays in motion.
Oftentimes this can cause a person to fall.
And it can lead to a severe injury.

Fortunately, Cognitive Sight devices could be developed with the ability to predict a freeze and help the person start moving again.
A person with Parkinson’s would simply wear this marvelous technology. It has the potential to monitor their motion habits – their regular speed, stride – every minor detail.

It could assess heart rate, as well.
As soon as the device senses a freeze coming, it could respond by sending the wearer either visual or auditory cues to continue walking.

Catalin Voss is a computer scientist at Stanford University’s School of Medicine, explains:
“Children with autism can quickly regress down a path of isolation that worsens their symptoms.”
- Catalin Voss, Computer Scientist,
Stanford University School of Medicine

kids simply wear a Cognitive Sight headset and it goes to work translating facial expressions and emotions of other people during conversations and basic interactions.
Stanford’s initial pilot study of forty children has wrapped up, and more clinical trials have begun.
But already the impact is being felt, with Voss declaring:
"What we’re doing is giving children with autism superpowers."
- Catalin Voss

-------------------------------------------------------

virtually imperceptible to the human eye.
This Cognitive Sight technology is so accurate the MIT team believes it could eventually help to identify cardiac disease.
One of the biggest applications for this could be with virtual doctor appointments.
Now that it’s covered by major insurers, 1.8 million patients are expected to have a consultation with their physician through their computer this year.

ORCAM
Cognitive Sight could soon make all languages universal


The Wall Street Journal predicts that Cognitive Sight’s impact will be so widespread it will “remove the need for a shared language.”

Cognitive Sight device I’m wearing comes from a small company in Israel called OrCam.

How many commercials have you seen on TV recently touting a car’s ability to “see” a potential accident two or three cars ahead of yours?

If you have bought a new car recently, chances are it came equipped with hundreds of sensors, as well as front and back cameras.

The information is being captured and recorded from these devices and being fed into the virtual brain of that automobile.
