At the #ViconPowered @MIT Biomechatronics Lab, researchers are working on exoskeletons that will work in far better harmony with the body.





"Would you put on an exoskeleton that meant you could run for an entire day without getting tired?

What about one that would allow you to stay on your feet longer at work?

The technology to give people superhuman strength is currently being developed but the ethical questions about whether we should be developing it and in what circumstances it should be used, are only just beginning to be asked."

just fyi...

Hi BB,

Personally, I think it's the Yotta side of the business that needs pushing... it's a fantastic idea / product.. with absolutely massive potential.. but uptake has been slower than hoped.. which, in my humble opinion, is probably due to the Silo mentality within the UK Public Sector.

Yotta seem to be making every effort to get the message across.. see the events page

hxxps://www.yotta.co.uk/events/

The collaboration with Tvilight to get some traction abroad seems sensible.. and it's hard to argue against the idea that eventually there will be some joined up thinking that will utilise something like Alloy / Horizons to great effect.. so the potential is there... just got to get a few forward thinkers to sign on the dotted line.

I remain convinced that the Vicon business will be taken out by one of the big entertainment houses... and perhaps that is more likely once Yotta can stand on it's own 2 feet...

No advice intended of course.. just my ramblings

Regard to all

From new non-exec RNS: Commenting on his appointment David Quantrell, said:

"This is an exciting time for Oxford Metrics. Yotta continues to broaden its capabilities and market appeal and there is a clear opportunity ahead to change the way nations manage their infrastructure assets. Vicon is a leader in its field and with the launch of IMU-Step - a SaaS product sold on subscription - there is an opportunity to grow its base of recurring revenues. Having held senior leadership roles at Box, HP Software and McAfee, I hope to bring my experience to bear, as the Group continues to grow into an international software business."

Interesting that Yotta comes first and very upbeat comment: "clear opportunity". Welcome aboard!

"Silver Spoon Opens Full-Service Mocap Facility in Brooklyn, NY

By Bryant Frazer / June 8, 2018

Silver Spoon has opened a 12,000-square-foot performance-capture facility in New York City offering services including body and facial capture, rigging and scanning and post-processing.

The new operation in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, includes a 65 x 55-foot mocap stage with 16-to-20-foot-high ceilings and an approximately 53 x 50-foot capture volume. The studio has 48 Vicon Vantage cameras running on a Vicon Shogun system as well as a 32-camera Optitrack system for VR. A second stage in Manhattan has a much smaller 30 x 15-foot capture volume with 16 Vicon T160 cameras running on Vicon Blade 3."

My interpretation of the interim results was Yotta is picking up momentum. IMHO.

[lignum] 01/6/2018 13:31

Earnings were off a bit Mr Bluesky so not surprised at the drop. Also not worried as the CEO/CFO sound confident of meeting full year expectations (see short video presentation on their website), the pipeline is 10% ahead of last year and recurring revenue growth is good. More new orders from Yotta should get the share price motoring again.

[bbluesky] 01/6/2018 11:54

Sometimes you have to laugh at markets: two truly excellent RNSs this week and price drops! Wouldn't mind an extra 5% of the company myself.

[mfhmfh] 01/6/2018 11:15

J O HAMBRO CAPITAL MANAGEMENT LIMITED almost doubled their holding. they must be confident.
