SPYR Inc., dba SPYR Technologies, a technology company whose subsidiary, Applied Magix, Inc., develops and resells Apple ecosystem compatible products in the multibillion-dollar smart home and connected car markets, announced that Applied Magix is looking into AI applications for its products.

While the public perception of AI is that robots and supercomputers are out to take over the world, the reality inside the area of IoT looks to be a lot more mundane on the surface. It entails the use of artificial intelligence (AI) decision-making systems to govern and ‘decide’ on behaviors in our environment.

“As part of our Secret Lab initiatives, AI frequently comes to the forefront of product development and how to make smart hardware even smarter. For example, various sensors track a number of conditions around your house, but when processed by an AI system, analysis of those conditions can be used to trigger actions that increase security or save you money in the long run,” said Applied Magix CEO Dr. Harald Zink.

“AI is a fascinating field that is fast growing and shows a tremendous amount of promise to make our lives easier in an enriching way,” states Tim Matula, chief executive officer of SPYR Technologies. “It’s exciting to get updates on what Applied Magix’s Secret Lab is exploring and working on and will hopefully be finding its way into our homes at some point in the future.”
