The future of urban mobility with Braintech Technology

InnerEye's Braintech technology, brought to Europe by Macnica ATD Europe, sounds like science fiction, but it's not! In addition to being real and disruptive, it is already being used in the digital transformation of some markets, such as agriculture and automobiles.

In Brazil, Macnica DHW, in partnership with Embrapa, is using this technology to detect diseased plants, starting with soybeans and corn.

Braintech technology trains the Artificial Intelligence (AI) network using the judgment of Embrapa experts obtained directly from brain waves.

Through this capture, BrainTech technology can identify the judgment and classification that a person makes when observing an image. In Embrapa's case, during the training, the experts viewed images of diseased plants where they were able to train the algorithm to automate labeling.

This will make the identification of diseased plants much more agile and efficient, reducing losses on farms and rationalizing the use of natural resources.

"By combining neural signals and Artificial Intelligence (AI), it is possible to create a machine that imitates the human brain with high reliability," said Macnica DHW's IoT & AI Solutions Manager, Fabrício Petrassem.

With InnerEye's BrainTech technology, the process of recognizing an image or deciding can be accelerated by up to 10 times through the use of neural signals from experts.

Through neural signals, the EEG (electroencephalogram) directly accesses the brain's visual processing and decision-making response, and in Embrapa's case, the task of image recognition (data labeling) can be performed much faster because it captures the expert's level of certainty.
