Imagine ideas such as flat thin lenses that could shrink the size, weight and cost of phones and cameras; or a soft, flexible skin for robots that gives them a gentle human-like sense of touch; or blockchain-based health record storage that reduces medical costs while guarding privacy and improving trust between patients and doctors.
These are among the new artificial intelligence, electronics and optoelectronics inventions and research that will soon be unveiled at the Future Tech Expo 2018 exhibition. Future Tech Expo 2018 runs from December 13 to 15, 2018 at the Taipei World Trade Center, Hall 3 in Taipei, Taiwan. The main organiser is the Ministry of Science and Technology of Taiwan.
