18 Apr 2024. We've got the latest on the aftermath of the recent floods as we speak to Cafu COO Ryan Rogers. We also speak to one repair garage who've been inundated with water-damaged cars after the recent storms. Plus, we'll hear from an insurance lawyer about potential payouts for this week's storms. And we speak to Laurence Kemball-Cook, CEO and Founder, Pavegen -  a smart flooring technology company that transforms footsteps into electrical energy - they're launching in Dubai today at the World Future Energy Summit. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Every time you take a step, you're creating energy. Sadly, that energy isn't captured and used to power your daily life. But what if it could be? That's exactly what Pavegen is doing. What started as a guy tinkering in his room to make tiles that generate electricity when depressed is now a multimillion dollar startup with flooring installations in more than 30 countries.  As you'll hear in this interview with Pavegen CEO Laurence Kemball-Cook, after much trial and error, he invented a light-generating tile which he clandestinely installed in downtown London in the middle of the night to see what would happen. The video he posted online went viral, and the next thing he knew he had a half-million dollar purchase order from a major shopping mall company. That set Laurence off to the races, sometimes quite literally with installations for runners, and now he's overseeing a team of 40 seeking to mass-produce energy-creating tiles for sidewalks, roads, dancefloors, football fields, and more all around the world.  And unlike some other types of clean energy, this technology doesn't depend on the sun shining or the wind blowing, but rather just people (or vehicles) passing over.  Pavegen's now launched a crowdfunding campaign to fuel its future growth, as it works to create its vision for a more sustainable energy future, literally one step at a time.  Discussed in this episode Video promo for Pavegen's crowdfunding campaign TechCrunch video on Pavegen's technology Yahoo Finance on Pavegen Laurence recommends reading The Lean Startup Laurence also recommends the How I Built This episode with Ring founder Jamie Siminoff Laurence is enthused by waterless toilets, like those that Bill Gates is pioneering (more on his partnership with Samsung here) More about Laurence Kemball-Cook Laurence Kemball-Cook is the award-winning founder and CEO of Pavegen Systems, an innovative clean technology company. Pavegen is a flooring technology that instantly converts kinetic energy from footsteps into renewable off-grid energy. This technology has been used across the world and installed in over 150 projects in more than 30 countries. Laurence has partnered with figures such as solar entrpreneur and artist Akon, football legend Pele and will.i.am to promote his clean-tech vision. He has also worked with some of the world's largest companies including Shell, Adidas, Heathrow and Europe's largest shopping centre, Westfield.

Lewis talks with Laurence Kemball-Cook, founder and CEO of Pavegen, a technology company that has developed a flooring system to convert people's footsteps into electrical power. Laurence talks about the concepts behind Pavegen, and the trials and tribulations that go with starting and building a business. Pavegen converts the kinetic energy of footsteps into both electricity and data.

“I create personalities for the computers that people talk to”  This quote comes from Wally Brill, Google’s Head of Conversation Design Advocacy & Education this week on the Shiny New Object Podcast. In this conversation, he takes us on a journey from being a record producer to an interactive opera composer and how he ended up leading Voice design for Google.    Wally points out that being able to have a conversation does not give you the qualification to teach a computer how to speak. There’s a “deeper layer” to conversation which we don’t always notice. For example, when we talk to each other we use “micro-expressions” which act as conversational cues and indicate our underlying emotions. But Voice assistants can’t see these micro-expressions. It’s like Google Home or Alexa only ever talk to you with their eyes closed. Wally’s job is to design human-like conversations for Google Assistant even though they don’t see and speak as we do. We aren’t born with the ability to read a room, we learn it from experience, which is why we have to teach it to computers. Wally goes deep into his craft explaining the importance of ‘Prosody’ which “is the melody of speech.” This melody is nuanced and not clear to everyone which is why there’s an abundance of ex-music professionals working in Voice User Experience design.   Wally’s Shiny New Object is Text-to-Speech. Midway through 2018 Google presented their ‘Duplex’ project. An AI function which talks over the phone like a human on your behalf and enables you to make dinner reservations without you actually speaking to someone. This demonstrates Wally’s stance that speech is the easiest interface to use. Learning how to use a computer is difficult - talking isn’t. His belief is that eventually, Voice will be sophisticated enough to understand all of the nuances in language. This will result in a seamless experience.   In a heated debate, Wally and Tom discuss the ways in which these advancements in Text-to-Speech will help people in real need. Voice Tech should be solving issues that affect people who can’t afford or don’t have access to smart speakers. Wally tells us that Text-to-Speech is helping illiterate people communicate and consume information through their mobiles giving them access to the internet in a way that wasn’t possible before. This could make a tangible difference to the lives of millions of people. Not just those ordering a Frappuccino on UberEats who would like it to be just a tad easier.    You can hear more from Wally in person at the brilliant www.madfestlondon.com/picnic on the 10th of July.   This podcast is sponsored by, Khoros.com.
