FOCUS

Thematic Areas

Robotics

Refers to the vast network of physical devices embedded with sensors, software, and other technologies that connect and exchange data with other devices and systems over the internet or other communication networks.

Artificial Intelligence

A broad field encompassing the development of intelligent machines that can simulate human cognitive abilities like learning, problem-solving, and decision-making.

Startup Innovation

A subset of AI that focuses on algorithms that can learn from data without explicit programming. Machine learning models are trained on large datasets to identify patterns and make predictions. Examples include image recognition, spam filtering, and recommendation systems.

Circular Economy

A broad field encompassing the development of intelligent machines that can simulate human cognitive abilities like learning, problem-solving, and decision-making.

Smart Agriculture

A type of network where devices connect directly to each other, creating a distributed network rather than relying on a central hub. Mesh networks are often used in smart homes, industrial settings, and disaster response scenarios due to their resilience and scalability.

Water Technologies

Are devices that detect and measure physical or environmental conditions like temperature, pressure, light, or motion. Sensors are crucial for collecting data in various applications, including IoT devices, smart cities, and wearables.

Textile

one-of-a-kind event celebrates the fusion of traditional Filipino textiles with cutting-edge research and sustainable fashion technologies.
