4. Jeff Hawkings, co-founder Palm and Handspring:
- created the Redwood Neuroscience Institute (RNI)
- developed a theory of neocortex (J.Hawkings, On Intelligence, 2004)
- founded Numenta in 2005 to develop a technology platform derived from
his theory
Comparable technologies
6. Only 1.6Mb to store a 15-
class vocabulary on disk
Training time for each
additional class is reduced
while learning multiple
classes incrementally
We can detect:
multiple objects
in real time
And our technology is scalable:

Market opportunities
9. Predictable space/time execution, appropriate for real
time problems
Complex context mining via multiple object detection
Viable approach towards high degree of robot
autonomy
Cherry picking apps:
Image/video service that searches by content
and displays relevant ads
Visual search and touch aided design
Smart cameras
Applications
10. Beyond Smart Cameras
Systems build on Smart
Cameras grids
SoC design for application-
specific machine vision
High level of flexibility using
different object libraries
No additional CPU required
Real time execution
11. NextGen touchscreen interface
Express complex finger
gestures in visual search
Bring intuitive UI to the next
level
User gestures as actions
Responsiveness and
alertness
12. Delivering relevant ads
80% of Internet video
streams are currently not
monetized
Pictures without relevant
tags or context are no good
Suggesting and Searching by content

14. For startups and businesses who
are using pattern recognition techniques
We provide a technology platform that works across multiple
domains
Unlike other technology providers who
have scalability issues and/or are locked on a
single domain
Our Company offers a single platform that works across
multiple domains.
The advantage Users are getting results in real-time and don't
have to invest in big hardware or research to
realize their goals.
