THE COMPANY
CloudMinds was founded in 2015 with the three elements of many successful start-ups: a bold vision, creative people, and encouraging financial support.
The CloudMinds vision is that by 2025, helpful humanoid robots will be affordable for the average household. The vision also includes creating a new kind of venture with the unique international character that earns and keeps the trust of people and markets everywhere.
CloudMinds people are vital to making the vision come alive. The company founder is serial entrepreneur Bill Huang, who has a record of turning technology visions into reality. Bill has attracted the CloudMinds team, who are world-class scientists, engineers, business leaders and other professionals. CloudMinds has critical functions distributed across its primary locations in Silicon Valley, Tokyo, and Beijing.
Consistent with its international character, team, and locations, CloudMinds is supported by an internationally diverse set of investors, including, Foxconn, Keytone Ventures, SoftBank and Walden Venture Investments.
CLOUD CONNECTED SMART MACHINES
The benchmark for intelligence is the human being. However, there is no technology to enable human-like intelligence within a humanoid robot. The physical dimensions do not work. While an average human brain weighs less than 1.5 kg (3.5 pounds), the silicon alone for an artificial brain would weigh over one thousand tons!
Fortunately, AI of human capacity is being developed and can be provided in the cloud. The distribution of processing is one key enabler. Just as mobile communications are only possible with cellular networks, so too intelligent robots are only possible in the cloud. CloudMinds is creating advanced AI engines in the cloud that will serve as he brains for intelligent robots.
Nuage Choreographs the Network™
As the aircraft's wheels touch the tarmac, you turn on your mobile device and within seconds you are making calls or browsing the web. The expectation of connectivity for voice or data is exactly the same as with the utilities that provide us gas and electricity. You turn it on and it's there. Instantaneous access with full mobility for millions of subscribers. Everytime, anytime, anyplace. Done!
Not quite the case for Cloud Computing yet... It takes an inordinate amount of time for virtual machines(VMs) to be instantiated and to be connected to the network. Worse, the reliability of the network is atrocious. And mobility? Limited with many network restrictions that renders it useless. If the network can't make the VMs available instantaneously when you need them, there is no cloud. If the network can't provide unfettered, boundary less mobility, there is no cloud. If the network can't be provisioned dynamically and instantaneously for each tenant based on their SLA, there is no cloud. Bottom line: The consumption of compute and network is far from approaching the reliability and availabilty of wireline and mobile networks. At Nuage Networks, we intend to change that.
When critical data is trapped in silos, institutional knowledge becomes fragmented, leaving even the most dedicated teams one step behind the students they serve.
Civitas Learning is the partner higher education trusts to bridge this gap. Our Student Impact Platform serves as a single, unified foundation that brings your institution’s unique data into focus.
By integrating institution-specific AI directly into the heart of everyday workflows, we enhance human expertise with the power of real-time insights. This allows advisors, faculty, and leaders to identify hidden barriers earlier, activate timely interventions, and measure exactly what works to move the needle for their students.
By removing the silos between data and people, we unlock the power of proactive coordination. The impact is both measurable and life-changing: our partners typically see a 3–11% improvement in retention and a 2–13% increase in completion rates.
Equip everyone to impact any student outcome. Learn more about the Student Impact Platform at civitaslearning.com/platform.
