Manage episode 396940481 series 2968079
How AI and design thinking are helping us live better for longer
In this, the sixth episode of Silent Designers, Steve Welch and guest, Ahmed Wobi, explore the theme of healthy living and tech.
Award winning writer, director—and national basketball champion, Ahmed Wobi, is also the co-founder of Tonus Tech. Tonus Tech provides preventative health companies with wearable solutions and AI-driven movement analysis and personalised workout programmes to optimise people's fitness age.
Ahmed and his team’s focus is on keeping people moving better for longer using sensors and artificial intelligence.
Join us as Ahmed explains how his academic medical background helped him apply creative design thinking to the early discovery stages of his formative research areas. How AI is enabling academics to manipulate large data sets – lowering the threshold for early exploration and encouraging greater experimentation. And the impact his experiences as a national basketball champion have had on his career.
“When you play sport at a formal level, you have to be able to make quick decisions and know how the members of your team will react. That translates to life in general but also to academia, entrepreneurism, and design, because there’s an iterative process in going back to concepts, in trial and error, and then in testing what works and what doesn’t.”
Ahmed Wobi, Co-founder of Tonus Tech
Listen as Ahmed shares:
· The positive implications AI tech holds for our better health and fitness
· Why it’s crucial to embed people from diverse backgrounds into early stage design processes
· The importance of user-focused design
“Design processes? They will take you on interesting journeys...”
