Each year cloud computing, powered by massive datacenters, plays a larger role in our everyday lives. The cloud supports social media, provides us with new ways to shop, houses a wealth data, and provides the backend horsepower for many mobile apps. In the Cloud Zone, see examples of how Intel researchers are working to make […]

In the Visual Zone, see how Intel is adding a “visual” aspect to the daily life of the future with minimal costs and eco system changes. Research technologies developed at Intel and with university partners will improve daily user experiences ranging from shopping in a mall to the viewing experience of digital content on consumer […]

The Personal Energy Zone focuses on research into controlling and reducing energy consumption. Scientists are discovering ways to empower the individual or organization with tools and information needed to make intelligent energy choices and developing infrastructure components to help integrate systems to achieve greater energy improvements. In this zone see how Intel is making energy […]

The new Intel Science and Technology Center at the University of California, Berkeley will lead research into secure computing. Professor David Wagner will be the Director of the Center and he will serve as Co-Principal Investigator. Intel Senior Principal Engineer John Manferdelli will work with Dr. Wagner in the role of Co-Principal Investigator. The research […]

Advances in interactive molecular graphics enable not only creative research, but an increasingly collaborative and mobile research community to interact. In the “VIsualization Vault,” at the University of California, San Francisco, Professor Tom Ferrin and his team created Chimera, a visualization system for exploratory research. Ferrin, one of the pioneers of visualization, leads UCSF’s computer […]

While context-aware devices of the near future might recommend restaurants, monitor a user’s health, or screen phone calls, they may also save human lives by keeping drivers safe and aware of their surroundings. Future Lab spoke with researchers about the problem of drowsy or distracted driving, the ability of the human mind to process information […]

The world’s population is aging. It’s estimated that by the year 2050 more than half the people on Earth will be over the age of 50. But while people are living longer, they still have to live with the diseases that come with old age. The European community has been working with technology companies to […]

One of the next frontiers of computing is to create systems that understand the user. Context aware devices of the near future might recommend restaurants, monitor a user’s health, or screen phone calls—all based on information collected from device sensors and casual input data. Two of the most profound sensors are already on our devices: […]

The Intel Science Talent Search, held in conjunction with the Society for Science and the Public, is regarded as the country’s most prestigious science research competition for high school seniors. Of the 1,744 high school seniors who entered the Intel Science Talent Search 2011, 300 were announced as semifinalists in January. Of those, 40 were […]

Every year, finalists in the Intel Science Talent Search gather in Washington, DC, to share their research. This year, finalists Ryan Lee and Laurie Rumker, and winner Evan O’Dorney, spoke with Future Lab radio about their work, and what it could mean for the world. Ryan Lee is a student at the North Carolina School […]
