💙 NEWS FROM OUR MATESMorgan launches articles on Entrepreneurship, Bootstrapping, Startups 🦾

💭 TECH FOOD FOR THOUGHTHologram patients to train future doctors and nurses 🩺
Mixed reality on whole new levels 🔥🤯
GigXR, Cambridge University Hospitals (CUH) and the University of Cambridge Faculty of Education are collaborating to make high-level clinical training more accessible worldwide - with the use of hologram patients, virtual reality and augmented reality!
The first training models will focus on emergency scenarios and deteriorating chronic conditions that lead to hospitalization, to help trainees understand responses and human factors needed to provide accurate care.
A hologram patient can be projected to any physical training environment - Instructors can then “share” scenarios with learners, change patient responses based on the learner’s actions, introduce complications, as well as record observations and discussions …all accessible through a mixed reality headset, smartphone or tablet!
🌱 TECH FOR SUSTAINABILITYMeet the robot spying on penguins to save them 🐧
Look at all of those cute wobbling penguins 😭 (Weird fact: Penguins DO have knees!)
A little robot named "ECHO" is helping researchers at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution to keep tabs on ~20,000 emperor penguins. It’s a 1m long robot that’s close to the ground to avoid scaring the penguins away!
Partly autonomous and can also be remotely controlled, ECHO scans penguin’s electronic tags to gather data about how they’re living. Whether they’re thriving or not, it would tell us a whole lot more data on the health of the whole Southern Ocean - as the penguins are top predators in the ecosystem. Unfortunately, 98% of them are under threat due to sea ice melts. Hopefully ECHO will help us take action before it’s too late!
