NATIONAL HARBOR, Md. (AP) — The U.S. military is employing artificial intelligence to pilot small spy drones on special operations missions and help Ukraine in its war with Russia. It’s also tracking soldiers’ health, predicting when Air Force planes need maintenance and helping keep an eye on rivals in space.Now, to keep up with China, the Pentagon wants to deploy thousands of relatively cheap, disposable, AI-equipped self-driving vehicles by 2026. The ambitious effort, called Replicator, aims to “jumpstart a long-overdue technological shift for the U.S. military toward smaller, smarter, cheaper and more numerous platforms,” Deputy Secretary of Defense Kathleen Hicks…
8. Addressing the Environmental Impact of Healthcare IT As the healthcare technology trends above show, digitalization offers great potential for delivering care more effectively and efficiently. For example, by applying clinical decision algorithms and predictive analytics, data can be used to provide personalized, actionable insights, such as alerting acute care teams to potential problems or encouraging healthy behaviors through app-based coaching. Because digital solutions are scalable, they can support greater prevention, improve triage, reduce healthcare costs, and enable a shift from resource-intensive clinical settings to lower-cost field or home-based care. And for the 3.5 billion people around the world who…
Just like clinicians who specialize in specific areas of medicine, technical problems in medicine require specialized solutions because the healthcare industry has no single general problem to solve, but rather many separate issues that need to be addressed. To further complicate things, healthcare isn’t one industry, but many industries that fall under the same umbrella: clinical care, devices, diagnostics, pharmaceuticals, hospitals, payers, and more, each with their own unique challenges and opportunities that must be addressed with their own solutions. It’s easy to oversimplify and say, “These big tech companies are now coming into healthcare and they’re going to solve…
“If it wasn’t me, it would have been somebody else,” Martin Cooper, otherwise known as Marty, tells DCD.Except it wasn’t somebody else, it was Cooper who invented the first ever portable cell phone.His legacy is particularly poignant this year, as it marks the 50th anniversary since Cooper made the first call from the portable device he designed. – Marty Cooper BeginningsBorn in 1928 in Chicago to Ukrainian Jewish parents, as a child Cooper only wanted to take things apart and fix them.“From my earliest memories, I’ve always known I was going to be an engineer,” he says. “I always loved…
As the U.S. healthcare system faces near-unprecedented shortages of hundreds of medicines and cancer treatments, pharmaceutical manufacturers are facing increasing pressure to maximize productivity and reliability of supply. Every pharmaceutical product begins with a series of supply chain inputs that are assembled at the manufacturing plant and then released to market. Applying Internet of Things (IoT) technology, data analytics, and artificial intelligence (AI) in combination with lean manufacturing techniques to these processes can help manufacturers improve their operations and make better use of existing raw materials. These solutions also help pharmaceutical companies and other medical device manufacturers continuously optimize their…
