If you're not familiar with the Hardware Cup, it's time to get familiar.  Startups that make physical products are getting hot again, and the Hardware Cup is the leading pitch competition for entrepreneurs in that space.  The Pittsburgh event is coming up on February 28th, so we invited Hardware Cup event coordinator Kayce Karlo to come into the studio and talk to us about what makes this event so special, what kinds of companies have competed in the past, the prizes and support the winners get to claim, and what's going on in the United States with regard to building and making physical products.  

AlphaLab Gear is a hardware and robotic startup accelerator that provides physical product companies with investment, mentorship and connections. The AlphaLab Gear Hardware Cup is a pitch competition for early-stage hardware startups. The Hardware Cup tours 6 US regions, with events in: Pittsburgh, Los Angeles, Boston, Washington DC, Chicago, and Austin. Other countries around the globe also participate, including Japan, South Korea, Israel, and others. https://alphalabgear.org/hardwarecup/ https://www.facebook.com/AlphalabGear/ https://twitter.com/alphalabgear Somatic Labs We're designing for a future without screens - starting with a platform for haptic communication. We’ve developed Zorb, a full-stack platform that uses the sense of touch to convey information. We provide more than an ordinary tap or vibration. The Zorb Platform enables the delivery of real-time information (alerts, instructions, directions) through rich vibro-tactile patterns that move across a user’s skin. Our patented technology allows the rapid creation of high resolution tactile patterns consisting of pulses, shapes, directions, and complex illusions of motion. https://somaticlabs.io https://twitter.com/SomaticLabs https://www.facebook.com/SomaticLabs/

This week marks the return of Scot MacTaggart of Pitchwerks. He is, of course, joined by our usual co-hosts, Katie, Chilla, and Sorg as they talk this week’s tech news, including: Katie is talking Anchor as her Awesome Thing of the Week – and their ability to find you a podcast co-host! We’re talking the Tinder of podcast hosts. Scot’s Awesome Thing of the Week is the Hardware Cup finals with Pittsburgh’s very own Velocity Robotics. If you’re in Pittsburgh, you should check out the Hardware Cup – an International event that right’s here! Sorg’s Awesome Thing of the Week is via Matt Carlins and comes to us as Uber’s Uber Movement project. Chilla is sharing Google AI Kit as his Awesome Thing of the Week. It may be the first time Sorg has a retraction from a show recommendation thanks to his DoorDash experience. Smallman Galley is cool enough on its own, but now they have a Guilty Pleasures offering – with a menu on View Master! Sure your music sounds okay on Home Pod and Echo, but does your extreme metal sound just as good? Snap launches new features for Lens Studio AR. A number of tech companies vow not to aid in cyber attacks. After the show remember to: Eat at Slice on Broadway (@Pgh_Slice) if you are in the Pittsburgh area! It is Awesome!
