Jan 05, 6:01AM
If you’re looking for a more interactive experience from your favorite TV shows, a company called Cognitive Networks is working to make it happen. Cognitive Networks was founded in 2008 and we last wrote about it back in 2013, after the company announced its partnership with LG. When I ran into President Zee Neumeier tonight at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, he told me that… Read MoreHere's How Nvidia's New Tegra X1 Stacks Up To The K1 And Apple A8X On Paper
Jan 05, 6:00AM
Nvidia’s new Tegra X1 mobile chipset is a veritable beast: It’s able to provide almost two times the graphics performance of the iPad Air 2’s A8X while also consuming just about the same amount of power, and it’s already in production, meaning tablets sporting the X1’s graphical prowess should be available to consumers in the relatively near future. The Tegra… Read MoreIncubate Fund Launches $91M Fund To Focus On Startups In Asia And The U.S.

Jan 05, 4:59AM
I’ve written about ISKN in the past. It’s a simple slate that tracks your pen and paper sketches. It transforms your drawings into vectorial images in real time. The company just snatched $2 million in funding from Partech Ventures, CEA Investments, Kima Ventures and Pascal Cagni. But more importantly, ISKN works shockingly well. When I first met the ISKN team last year, I… Read MoreIC Real Tech's 720-Degree Allie Camera Can Stream Virtual Reality
Jan 05, 4:58AM
You never really feel like you’re there when you’re stuck watching from whatever angle the camera person chose.

But thanks to new video stitching technology, the new Allie camera from IC Real Tech can turn two 360-degree camera feeds into an “all-D” image that lets you look… Read MoreNvidia Announces Two New Computing Platforms For Cars

While the CX focuses on… Read MoreThe Parrot Pot And H2O Give You A Robotic Green Thumb
Jan 05, 4:19AM
When you think of Parrot, chances are you are thinking about the A.R. Drone or it’s recently launched Bebop drone. But as the company’s CEO Henri Seydoux told me in an interview earlier today, drones are only one area of interest for the company. Parrot is interested in everything that connects to the smartphone and these days, that includes your house plants. The company… Read MoreNvidia Announces Tegra X1 With Maxwell GPU

Jan 05, 3:33AM
It’s been almost a year since Takuro Yoshida and his team blew up Kickstarter with the Ring, a wearable that uses simple wand-like gestures to control gadgets in the home.

Read MoreLima Showcases Its Mobile App For Its Dropbox Alternative

Jan 05, 1:26AM
At CES this year, Snail, a Chinese gaming company, demoed a new console it is working to release early this year called the OBox. The device is essentially a modular — their word — computer that runs Android games. I tinkered with the thing earlier today when it was attached to a large television, playing games in 3D. Snail declined to detail the price of the device, which was… Read MoreThe Robot That Can Destroy You At Beer Pong
Jan 05, 12:05AM
Robots. They can wipe the floor with us at Flappy Bird, Ping Pong, and chess. At least we’ve still got the last great bastion of human sportsmanship that is beer pong, right? Wrong. Built by Empire Robotics to show off yet another thing that their trippy spherical robot gripper “hand” is capable of, watch on as it destroys the competition in one flawless turn. If… Read MoreTales Of CES: Everybody Tells Me CES Is A Mess
Jan 04, 10:27PM
Next week will be my first CES. Over the past couple of months, when I talked with CES veterans, they all told me that CES is a horrible experience. And yet, I am still incredibly excited. I plan to take advantage of my fresh perspective on the show to share my experience over the next few days. But first, let’s start with figuring out why everybody keeps telling me that CES is a mess.… Read MoreRoku Will Power Connected TVs From Haier And Best Buy's Insignia Brand, Support 4K Streaming With TCL

Jan 04, 10:00PM
In 2015, the consumer will really be in the driver’s seat, and this is especially true in the healthcare world. The Affordable Care Act (ACA), better known as Obamacare, is here to stay. Now health insurers today have little choice but to dramatically revise their 50-year old business models that focused on employer-sponsored group products and focus on the consumers who have so much… Read MoreThe Future Of Digital Media In 2015
Jan 04, 10:00PM
2014 proved to be a transformational year for content-driven digital media and investment (a new “golden age” of content I predicted for TechCrunch at the beginning of this year). For the first time, that investment (much of it SoCal-based) finally took its rightful place in the sun –even in the eyes of ever-skeptical NorCal venture capitalists.

Jan 04, 10:00PM
Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg is this generation’s version of Oprah. His crowd-sourced New Year’s resolutions post on Facebook prompted Zuck to start a book club this year.

The book, an exploration of how power… Read MoreApploi, A Job Hunting App, Raises Over $7 Million In Series A
