Interview: Gathering & analyzing data with drones & IBM Bluemix

Here’s an interview that I recently did with IBM DeveloperWorks TV at the recent World of Watson conference. In it I discuss a project I’ve been working on that analyzes drone imagery to perform automatic damage detection using the Watson Visual Recognition, and generates 3D models from the drone images using photogrammetry processes. The best […]

Drones, Bots, Cognitive Apps, Image Recognition, Motion Analysis, and Photogrammetry (or, what I’ve been up to lately)

It’s been a while since I’ve posted here on the blog…  In fact, I just did the math, and it’s been over 7 months. Lots of things have happened since, I’ve moved to a new team within IBM, built new developer tools, worked directly with clients on their solutions, worked on a few high profile keynotes, built apps for […]

Introducing the new Watson iOS SDK (beta)

I’ve written here in the past on both the impact of cognitive computing, and how you can integrate IBM Watson services into your mobile apps to add cognitive language processing capabilities and more.  I’m happy to share that IBM has just recently released a new beta SDK that makes integrating more Watson services into your iOS applications […]
