Standardized modular drones and a Glove Tricorder

BigThink – Singularity University team Infinity – presented their plan for a standardized, modular platform to manufacture drones. The group successfully flew a drone in Zero G gravity, cutting that cost by a factor of 10, and wants to utilize the drones for STEM education, 3D mapping, and anything else that could be accomplished by small, unmanned aerial vehicles.

Singularity University team MedSensation demonstrate their Glove Tricorder, a quantified sensing technology that can augment a physician’s touch, a breakthrough that could have all sorts of applications for detecting cancers and diseases.
