New 3D short movie! Physicians’ Colleague, Patients’ Helper: The Cognitive Computer

Great pleasure being back in the Deep Space 8K at Ars Electronica Center, Linz, Austria and see our new produced short movie for the first time in this 3D space! We had the toughest test audience: primary school children - it was great fun! The film shows how deep neural networks contribute to the evaluation of medical data and how this also changes the role of physicians and patients. In the future, doctors will compare their patients' medical images and treatment informatio
