Description

In the upcoming stages of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, we are going to experience a paradigm shift in how we use Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Robotics to improve processes and enhance healthcare. During her presentation, Alishba will discuss various applications of AI, soft robots, such as how they can be used to facilitate mental health practices, improve prosthetics and rehabilitation devices for recovering stroke patients. She will demonstrate this through her work with San Jose State University using 3D printing and AI to develop a cheaper prosthetic that costs $700 vs the current price of $10k. As well, she will be providing insights through highlighting her work with Hanson Robotics on Sophia the Robot and Kindred.Ai to develop more intelligent and safe human-robot interactions and machines that can be used in medical settings
