Next wave smart phones

by Richard McKinnon at 01:27AM (PDT) on June 28, 2006 | Permanent Link | Cosmos

Phone and compass. GPS tracking plus smart software. Point and find telephones. Geographical search says today's New York Times. A new front in the search wars. Using technology unavailable in the US, Asian phones (Japan, Korrea) are leading consumers in the street to where they want to go. Google maps on steroids.

Imagine if a phone/device could access a search for a dry cleaner, place a video call via VOIP, deliver payment for a service with stored value and lead the consumer to the business's geographic site. That would be mankind's best friend. It opens many many possibilities for new business services and opportunities. And the thing is. These phones can. Just not in the US.

Perceptric Forum

According to Wikipedia a perceptron is a type of artificial neural network.

Ergo a “Perceptric” is a person who creates or uses a neural network.

The Perceptric Blog is where Chris Gilbey posts thoughts, ideas, and links intended to stimulate thought and accelerate the transfer of ideas.

Chris is available for consulting work with the premise that it is not technologies that are disruptive so much as the people that use them.

The Perceptric mission is to help companies and people reach their goals and exceed their expectations. This will often mean offering counterintuitive conclusions.

Our view? The shortest distance between two points is not necessarily a straight line. It's the number of people needed to be present in a human network to influence and deliver positive decision making.
