From your fortified bunker of a home to the open ocean, technology is enhancing our lives in more ways than we can count. NETGEAR Product Management Leader for Orbi Connected Home, Amit Rele, describes how their Orbi mesh Wi-Fi network can deliver internet to the farthest reaches of your house. With tri-band communication, a sleek, accessible app, and great coverage with just two units, Orbi consistently garners praise from reviewers across the net. Then, we dive deep with XPRIZE Prize Lead and Senior Director of Planet and Environment, Jyotika Virmani, Ph.D., who fills us in on the nine finalists for the Shell Ocean Discovery XPRIZE. Mapping the seafloor is no easy feat. Then, Intel Labs Senior Principal Engineer, Dr. Ted Wilke, shares how they're partnering with Parley for the Oceans and SnotBot to use AI and machine learning to collect samples from whales and their exhalant. With a mission to identify and study whale morphometry, Dr. Ted Wilke and Intel are lending their knowledge to Parley for the Ocean's effort to determine the health of the ocean by discerning the wellbeing of top predators, whales.Tune in now.
