In the opening address at the Intel Developer Forum (IDF), CEO Brian Krzanich highlighted new products, tools and programmes that support the growing personalization of computing and described the trends creating new opportunities for developers across an unprecedented breadth of technologies. Krzanich said computing has become increasingly personal, enhancing nearly all aspects of life. "Computers are not only growing smarter and more connected, but gaining senses," he added.
He unveiled a number of updates to Intel RealSense technology that will bring depth sensing to more devices and applications, and announced new collaborations for securing the Internet of Things (IoT), in addition to programmes and toolkits for developers to help speed industrial IoT solutions to market. And, for the highly personalised world of wearable computing, Krzanich provided updates on the Intel Curie module and previewed a new reality competition programme called "America's Greatest Makers."
Each year at IDF, Intel shares its vision for the future of technology innovation with the developers and partners who create the products, engineer the systems, render the movies, and power the toys and devices that create amazing experiences.-PR
