Goals are a fundamental part of life, and not coincidentally, video games. Whether you’re looking to escape the dungeon, beat your last score or get to the next level, goals serve to challenge, focus and motivate us. These things are key to learning, success and tracking achievement—so can these concepts and technologies apply to education?

In this episode of Connect, get ready to level up your thinking with “the father of the video game industry” and the preeminent expert in STEAM education. We’re excited and privileged to welcome back Nolan Bushnell, founder of Atari, and Dr. Leah Hanes, CEO of The Two Bit Circus Foundation and ExoDexa, to expand our conversation on gamification and the future of education.

In “Level 2” of our discussion with Nolan and Leah, we delve deeper into the idea of creating curriculums that “meet students where they are,” the concept of constructive play, and the value of tying learning to other senses. Plus, we’ll examine how traditional education isn’t meeting the needs of every student nor is it keeping pace with technology—and what can be done to solve these problems.

Join us as envision the future of education, entrepreneurship, and technology – and of course, discover a few Atari easter eggs along the way!

What if students spent as much time studying as they did playing video games? Most parents blame gaming as a distraction from studies, and their kids condemn schoolwork as pointless. Is there truly a way to make both sides happy? And is gaming actually the common denominator?

In this episode of Connect we go straight to the ultimate authority for answers to these questions and more as we speak with the “father of the video game industry,” founder of Atari, Nolan Bushnell and education trailblazer and CEO of Two Bit Circus Foundation Dr. Leah Hanes. We delve into their new book, “Shaping the Future of Education,” and learn about their latest endeavor: ExoDexa.

Additionally, we explore a completely new vision for education and what Nolan and Leah are doing to make it a reality. From the concept of “no grades, no grades,” makerspaces and “flow,” we’ll discuss how technology and gamification have the potential to inspire K to grey learning by meeting students where they are and teaching to their interests.

Join us for an inspiring conversation that mixes education, entrepreneurship and technology, and yes, a bit of old school gaming.

Imagine, just a few years ago you installed state-of-the-art technology to solve your business needs, but now your needs have changed. What do you do? If you’re locked into a single solution provider, you have to hope that they have something that meets your needs, or possibly—and very expensively—you could replace your whole system. But does it have to be this way?

On this episode of Connect, we sit down with Leonid “Leo” Levit, Chairman of ONVIF and Director of System Integration, Platform Solutions, Axis Communications to discuss industry standards and the importance of interoperability. As the security industry’s premier standardization forum, ONVIF (Open Network Video Interface Forum) promotes the development of open standards for IP-based security products. These standards, or profiles, ensure greater flexibility and product choices, all while helping to future-proof security solutions.

From airports and universities to critical infrastructure and retail stores, technology standards are helping organizations leverage wide-ranging and often disparate systems. Join us as we learn how open standards benefit everyone—encouraging innovation and even uniting competitors for the good of an industry.

We’re facing a huge shortage in cybersecurity professionals – nationally, we’re looking at 600,000+ jobs open. So, what are we doing to close that gap and educate the next generation of cybersecurity leaders? On this episode of ‘Connect,’ we’re happy to welcome Steve Zuromski, Vice President of Information Technology & CIO at Bridgewater State University to discuss how they’re tackling this challenge head-on.

Together, we discuss the high demand for cyber professionals in the U.S. and what Bridgewater State is doing to mitigate the problem. From their first-of-its-kind Cybersecurity Degree and state of the art Cyber Range to their Security Operations Center (SOC) and partnership with CyberTrust Massachusetts, we explore how their real-world approach is making a difference for both students and communities. We also dive into ZeroTrust, AI, and the importance of strong vulnerability management.

Join us as we discuss cybersecurity, higher education, and most importantly – how everyone has an opportunity in cyber.

Network video cameras have gone from processing images at 3 frames per minute to providing real-time intelligence through deep learning—to say that that they’ve evolved is an understatement. Today’s cameras are helping to keep communities safer and make business operations more efficient, but how did we get here? And what does the future hold for network video?

This week on Connect, we welcome the man that literally wrote the book on network cameras – Fredrik Nilsson, VP, Americas, Axis Communications. Now in its third edition, Intelligent Network Video addresses the need for continuing education in the security industry while providing historical context for anyone new to the space. Whether you’re just beginning or a seasoned pro, both the book and this podcast have something to offer.

Join us as we discuss the transition from analog to IP cameras, how cybersecurity, AI, and cloud capabilities continue to evolve, and explore what’s next in the world of IP cameras.

Artificial Intelligence is here. It’s already impacting your daily life, and it’s quickly evolving. So, what exactly is it (and what isn’t it)? How do you cut through all the hype? And how can you leverage it?

In order to properly tackle the topic of AI, we required a panel of heavyweights. Accordingly, we’re pleased to welcome three esteemed industry experts to this episode of Connect: Adina Trufinescu, Principal Program Manager at Microsoft, responsible for computer vision and cognitive services for MS Azure Cloud and Edge; Mert Karakaya, Research Engineer at IPVM, in charge of research and testing on video surveillance, AI and other technologies; and Mike Jude, Research Director and author at IDC, who oversees global market research, focusing on video surveillance and computer vision applications.

In this episode we’ll peel back the layers of AI to discover what makes it tick. Adina, Mert and Mike will discuss the building blocks of AI and the ongoing evolution. We’ll delve into different types of AI, examining the latest developments in generative AI, computer vision and multimodal learning. From a more practical standpoint we’ll take a behind-the-scenes look at product testing and discover the factors that contribute to performance, how to detect biases and what it means to break an algorithm. And of course, we’ll evaluate the current market—and future prospects—for AI technology including adoption rates, use cases and major trends.

Join Scott Dunn as he hosts the top experts from companies that are leading the way in AI development, testing and research.
