DOD Innovations Detecting and Reacting to Poor Air Quality
Air quality is critical to overall quality of life. That’s bad news for 131.2 million people (39% of individuals in the United States) living in locations with failing grades for unhealthy levels of ozone or particle pollution.
Learn how improvements in HVAC systems can improve air quality.
External and Internal Collaboration Drives Consumer Durables Innovation
Consumer durables manufacturers produce various complex goods, including washers, dryers, air conditioners, and sports equipment. These companies leverage contributions from external partners and internal departments to develop high-quality innovations that can replace their product lines in the years ahead.
How will your innovation strategy leverage external insights and assistance?
Mixed Reality Innovations Spurred By DOD and VA Technologies
The global mixed reality market — estimated at more than $4 billion in 2024 — is expected to grow to more than $26 billion by 2029. This explosion of virtual technologies is fueled by applications for nearly every industry including aviation, real estate, and healthcare.
What applications in your industry can benefit from mixed reality?
Partnering and Best Practices Drive Rapid Software Innovations
Few products go from hit to has-been as fast as software applications and systems. The list of nearly forgotten software — Hypercard, AOL Instant Messenger, Postscript, Napster— is long and growing. Software companies must invent their next great product before the current version is overtaken by new technologies.
Will your software company find its next great idea?
