Expert Statements

Leeor Langer, Chief Technology Officer of Wearable Devices

“Physical AI systems need increasingly rich data to understand not only what is happening in the physical world, but also the nuances of how human actions are performed”

Leeor Langer, Chief Technology Officer of Wearable Devices

“Vision is a critical component of that process, while our Neural Intent technology can add another layer of information by capturing neuromuscular signals directly from the wrist. Together with Encord’s Physical AI data infrastructure, we believe this combination can create differentiated multimodal training data for increasingly sophisticated Physical AI and robotics systems.”

Leeor Langer, Chief Technology Officer of Wearable Devices

“Importantly, we are already working together on data collection, testing and integration. This collaboration represents another important step in extending our neural sensing technology beyond human-computer interaction and into the rapidly developing Physical AI ecosystem, while creating potential new commercial applications around the data generated by our technology.”

Collaboration aims to combine Wearable Devices’ Neural Intent data with Encord’s Physical AI data infrastructure to support richer multimodal training data for advanced Physical AI and robotics applications
