LIVE: How Technology Will Quantify Everything, Including Users

Welcome to NewsDesk on SiliconANGLE TV for Wednesday, July 10, 2013. The term “quantified self” is still a new term, but may soon become second nature to the mainstream. Here to discuss the topic is Silicon Angle Senior Managing Editor Kristen Nicole.

It’s certainly easy to see how factors like movement can be tracked in increasingly useful ways as products like Moves and the Nike FuelBand develop further, but how about further down the line? What else about your ‘self’ can be ‘quantified’, and how?

See live feed below or visit youtube.com/siliconangle to watch on-demand.

On today’s NewsDesk, Winston Edmondson will be filling in for Kristin Feledy, and he’ll be discussing a number of startups and how they interact with humans. Particularly, they’ll go over technology such as the Human app, and the Fitbit One device, and how they are among the first of many applications that will record how people behave, keeping as much information as possible about you.

So what is self-quantified data? How will wearable computers lead to human-integrated robots? And is gathering so much data useful or even necessary?

You can find out the answers to all of these questions and more as we discuss the implications of tech with our very own Kristen Nicole on this Morning’s Newsdesk with Winston Edmondson.
