If you are a PlayStation fan, on March 18 of 2020 you were likely confused, frustrated, bored, or some combination of the three. On that day, Mark Cerny, the lead system architect on the PlayStation 5, stood behind a lectern and, for an hour, delivered a live-streamed presentation titled "The Road to PS5." He rhapsodized about the ins-and-outs of computational power, and, at one point, solicited users for pictures of their ears. At that stage, the console itself hadn't been shown yet, and if the live chat accompanying the feed was any indication, the talk was not landing. Games were not being discussed, let alone shown. Most viewers likely zoned out around the sentence "33 CUs at 2.23 GHz is 10.3 teraflops." But that gobbledygook -- manifest through the marriage of hardware, firmware and software, with a pinch of authorial intent and creative vision -- meant a lot to developers. After all, the stream was a version of a presentation originally planned for this year's canceled Games Developers Conference, which in its original format would reach an audience of primarily developers and publishers.

San Jose, CA, May 31, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Tech Museum of Innovation is opening a new immersive exhibit which invites visitors to collaborate with AI-powered robots to bring their creations to life. With Animaker, visitors step into a large-scale projection of a jungle temple where robots invite them to form animals out of LEGO/Duplo bricks. Their creations are analyzed by the robots, incorporating cutting edge 3D-scanning technology and an AI-powered search engine that understands 3D content. The animals then come to life in a virtual ancient temple, and can be personalized by changing their look and behavior. This is the first experience in the world where children play and learn about AI by training machines to recognize different interpretations of real world objects.

A freezing-cold February in New York means Toy Fair has arrived once again--a reminder to us all that the toy industry moves like no other. In an industry that constantly needs to reinvent and discover new ways of engaging kids, a number of toy companies are unleashing breakout play experiences that take smart devices to a new level. Despite differing play patterns and products, this year's most stand-out crop of Toy Fair items are laced with elements of augmented reality, voice-assisted play, robotics and old-fashioned lights and buzzers. You could argue the technology play table was set last December by Disney with its augmented reality (AR) product Star Wars: Jedi Challenges. Nintendo also knocked that table over with its Nintendo Labo product.
