There are some 1.8 billion Muslims, but only 16% or so of them speak Arabic, the language of the Quran.
This is in part due to the fact that many Muslims struggle to find qualified instructors to give them feedback on their Quran recitation.
Enter today’s guest and his company Tarteel, a member of the NVIDIA Inception program for startups.
Tarteel was founded with the mission of strengthening the relationship Muslims have with the Quran.
The company is accomplishing this with a fusion of Islamic principles and cutting-edge technology.
AI Podcast host Noah Kravitz spoke with Tarteel CEO Anas Abou Allaban, to learn more.
Thanks to earbuds, people can take calls anywhere, while doing anything. The problem: those on the other end of the call can hear all the background noise, too, whether it’s the roommate’s vacuum cleaner or neighboring conversations at a café.
Now, work by a trio of graduate students at the University of Washington, who spent the pandemic cooped up together in a noisy apartment, lets those on the other end of the call hear just the speaker — rather than all the surrounding sounds.
Users found that the system, dubbed “ClearBuds” — presented last month at the ACM International Conference on Mobile Systems, Applications and Services — improved background noise suppression much better than a commercially available alternative.
AI Podcast host Noah Kravitz caught up with the team at ClearBuds to discuss the unlikely pandemic-time origin story behind a technology that promises to make calls clearer and easier, wherever we go.
Dentists get a bad rap. Dentists also get more people out of more aggravating pain than just about anyone.
Which is why the more technology dentists have, the better.
Overjet, a member of the NVIDIA Inception program for startups, is moving fast to bring AI to dentists’ offices.
On this episode of the NVIDIA AI Podcast, host Noah Kravitz talks to Dr. Wardah Inam, CEO of Overjet, about how her company uses AI to improve patient care.
Overjet’s AI-powered technology analyzes and annotates X-rays for dentists and insurance providers.
It’s a step that promises to take the subjectivity out of X-ray interpretations, boosting medical services.
As consumers expect faster, cheaper deliveries, companies are turning to AI to rethink how they move goods.
Foremost among these new systems are “hub-and-spoke,” or middle-mile, operations, where companies place distribution centers closer to retail operations for quicker access to inventory. However, faster delivery is just part of the equation. These systems must also be low cost for consumers.
Autonomous delivery company Gatik seeks to provide lasting solutions for faster and cheaper shipping. By automating the routes between the hub — the distribution center — and the spokes — retail stores — these operations can run around the clock efficiently and with minimal investment.
Gatik co-founder and Chief Engineer Apeksha Kumavat joined NVIDIA’s Katie Burke Washabaugh on the latest episode of the AI Podcast to walk through how the company is developing autonomous trucks for middle-mile delivery.
