Edge 3 Technologies is an offshoot of the Embry-Riddle<br />

Machine Vision Lab, the premier research facility in 3D<br />

gesture recognition with GPU technology. We specialize in<br />

the development of GPU middleware with advanced learning,<br />

coupled with machine vision for sophisticated Fortune 500<br />

companies. Our technology is up to 100x faster and more<br />

accurate than conventional CPU-based technology. The<br />

company’s goal is to help redefine the relationship between<br />

humans and machines.<br />

Our methodology involves:<br />

> > CUDA/OpenCL/GPU to mitigate computationally challenging<br />

aspects and improve real-time object segmentation and<br />

tracking performance, and reduce error rates<br />

> > CUDA/GPU for machine learning/training on massive<br />

amounts of data<br />

> > Machine learning of users’ behavior and habits with<br />

hundreds of features<br />

> > A new AI capable of identifying facial gestures as well as<br />

hand gestures, within the same framework<br />

> > Differentiating users with various biometrics and depths<br />
