Kyyba Innovations LLC, a Michigan-based technical solutions corporation focused on solving global issues, has announced its weTrace app to help municipalities across the U.S. flatten the curve and reduce the spread of COVID-19 by more quickly identifying those at risk and micro hot spots. 

The COVID-19 pandemic has gripped the world, causing anxiety and fear. The new app will help track symptoms of thousands of users across the country, while still protecting user privacy. Kyyba Innovations will partner with local health units to use this data to assess how best to support high-risk communities in Michigan and beyond as we fight this pandemic.

“The app uses technology to connect people with health systems and vice-versa,” said Kyyba Innovations Managing Director Tel Ganesan. “COVID-19 news and information changes daily and we are all in a silo, operating in our own bubble. This app will help us communicate and empower ourselves with safe tools and trusted resources.”

In addition to looks and performance, one of the most important elements that plays a major role in most car buying decisions is the technology, from infotainment setup to safety features.

If you’re going to use a vehicle for many years, you don’t want to get something that’s outdated and not up to snuff in terms of user experience and its ability to keep the driver and passengers safe.

This review will take a look at the tech and safety offerings on the 2020 Toyota lineup, based on my time driving a 2020 Toyota Corolla.

Infotainment controls (voice)
Voice commands are one of the best innovations that allow for vehicle safety, by freeing the driver from distractions tied to changing radio stations, fixing the climate settings, making phone calls and more.

The Corolla’s infotainment system delivered in this regard, as voice commands worked extremely well across the board. The navigation system also understood spoken addresses clearly, changing radio stations by voice was a breeze, and via Bluetooth it was also a smooth process to make phone calls by voice.

StradVision, which specializes in AI-based camera perception for ADAS systems and Autonomous Vehicles, has announced it is developing Animal Detection capabilities for its deep-learning based SVNet software. 

In the U.S. each year, there are more than 1.5 million deer-related accidents, which cause around 200 human deaths and 10,000 injuries, plus more than $1 billion in property damage.

When CES 2020 opens on Jan. 7 in Las Vegas for its four-day run, one major theme will be the visions of the technological future being presented by its many participants. StradVision, an industry leader in vision processing and perception technology for Autonomous Vehicles, will be on site at CES showcasing their vision literally — demonstrating up-close how their SVNet softwarewill provide the eyes that guide the Autonomous Vehicles (AVs) and ADAS systems of the future, including vehicles headed to roadways in 2020.

StradVision CEO Junhwan Kim said the company’s vision processing software will be a central component of AVs becoming a reality for the masses.

“The deep-learning based vision processing technology we are developing at StradVision will be a cornerstone of AV success,” Kim said. “We are excited to have an opportunity at CES 2020, one of the biggest events in the world, to show both the world and other technological pioneers the critical components that StradVision will be contributing as Autonomous Vehicles become the norm in years to come.”
