  • Ni-CAT Battery Materials and AI Company — Ni-CAT is working on AI-assisted research and development of next-generation battery materials, which is the key to the transition to battery electric vehicles. Ni-CAT believes that the speed of EV transition is still not enough to prevent global warming and replace carbon-based fuels in near future, and it is not related to money or resources. Webelieve that speeding up EV transition is possible with our novel methodology, which combines three approximation to the solution: our unique AI-assisted materials research, digitalized reactor farm and our novel surfactant-assisted synthesis.As the electrification of the automotive industry expands, we deliver state-of-the-art technologies to meet the industry’s high-quality standards. To help our customers to step up the EV transition, we will be working on our research and development of lower-cost/higher performance, ultra-high energy density battery materials to serve innovative solutions for a brighter future. With our expertise in the application of machine learning in material science, we are developing low cobalt/high nickel lithium cathode materials. Cathode determines the type of a lithium battery and is the limiting factor for nickel-based batteries. Further improvement in battery performance is possible through AI-assisted custom high nickel cathode materials with increased charge rate, charge to discharge ratio, tap density, or any other specifications. By our unique computer-controlled digital reactor farm, we numerize synthesis parameters and output specifications for the machine learning algorithm we have been developing.

His journey did not finish at this point, however. After completing his Bachelor's degree at IKU in 2017, he went even further to up his knowledge with 'Istanbul Bilgi University' (IBU), enrolling in the same year for a Master of Science degree in the field of Digital Marketing and Social Media. There, he delved into the intricacies of Digital Marketing, Analytics, and Strategic Planning. This plunging into the depths of marketing space provided Ali with understanding and knowledge, which he needed for achieving success in the complex world of corporate marketing!Upon graduation, apart from eyeing to land into a marketing position, Ali tasted loads of on-job projects that by the end of the race had in his stash a cool strategic market mixture. Smart hands and adaptability combined with his rapid corporate promotion made him develop into a true veteran of the business world.One day Ali found the work at agencies that were not so well-known to blow one’s mind. Ali decided to not necessarily go for the titans like TY, Uber, or Marvel but instead focus on the less known and small players that operate in a specific niche. His rise to fame comes from Ali achieving a marketing wizardry and high level professionalism, which consequently got the attention of the people with more important positions. He started leading the publicity push as the Chief Marketing Officer (CMO).As the principal brains behind the game's marketing and product promotion strategies, in this CMO gig for zk-Call — Ali Demir takes the responsibility for creating development and implementation of the strategies for marketing and product promotion.

Through working on different projects, he came up with an indigenous concoction of marketing tactics which provided him with a competitive edge over others in marketing. His ability to change and innovate at a blinding speed saw him rise through the puts of hierarchy to become a skillful business professional!The decision Ali took to join lower-known, small marketing agencies before the CMO job in zk-Call helped him to demonstrate his marketing ability and business reliability. He has been the mastermind behind the marketing and product promotions campaigns that have propelled zk-Call into a reputable and competitive brand in the industry at large.Ali's hunger and thirst for marketing are as strong as they were then. His success story demonstrates that if one has creativity, tenacity, and a strategic mindset, it is possible to achieve any heights despite the challenges.

  • NeuroVision AI Tech — NeuroVision AI Tech Overview As we delve into the realm of generative AI solutions powered by intricate neural networks, a critical question emerges: why do our sophisticated AI systems, capable of processing emotions and behaviors, lack the ability to perceive the world through artificial vision? This disconnect between advanced AI capabilitiesand artificial vision creates a glaring gap, potentially leading to a future where machines, despite their remarkable cognitive prowess, remain unable to fully interact with the physical world. This deficiency could hinder their ability to empathize, navigate complex environments, and truly understand the nuances of human behavior. The integration of artificial vision into advanced AI systems is not merely a matter of technological advancement; it is a fundamental step towards creating truly intelligent machines capable of interacting with the world in a meaningful and impactful way. Just as generative AI has revolutionized our ability to create realistic images, videos, and even text, artificial vision holds the potential to transform our AI systems, enabling them to perceive and understand the world in all its richness and complexity. By bridging the gap between AI's cognitive abilities and its ability to perceive the world, we can unlock a new era of intelligent machines that can truly collaborate with humans, enhancing our lives in countless ways. NeuroVision AI Tech has trained its own custom artificial intelligence model for this purpose. Current models have limitations in customizing real-time image processing and video image processing. Additionally, cloud computing dependencies make it difficult to provide sufficient flexibility for edge computing. FROM YOUR EYES: What We Do NeuroVision AI Tech is an artificial vision company. It develops artificial vision solutions by creating custom AI models that mimic the visual function of the human brain. This technology recognizes, tracks, and categorizes objects and people by processing images from cameras. Unique Features of FROM YOUR EYES AI Model Current AI models have limitations in making real-time image processing and video image processing accessible to end users, hindering their full potential. To address this, NeuroVision AI Tech has developed its own AI model, trained using a unique dataset containing over 15 million visual data points and over 700 classes. During the development, NeuroVision AI Tech asked, "What does a human biologically need to see?" ensuring the model works closer to human perception and needs. This approach helps humans gain access to technological vision while also making it easier for smart technologies to access artificial vision solutions. NeuroVision AI Tech' AI model: • Makes real-time image and video processing accessible to end users. • Is trained using a unique dataset with over 15 million visual data points and over 700 classes. • Trains real-time image recognition models. • Works closer to human perception and needs. • Facilitates smart technologies accessing artificial vision solutions. Performance and Capabilities NeuroVision AI Tech' image processing technology boasts impressive performance that surpasses industry standards in many key areas: • Video Image Processing: Delivers video image processing to end users, developers, and businesses. • Accuracy: Achieves a remarkable accuracy rate of 98.03%, exceeding industry standards by 8%. • Color Recognition: Identifies 865 distinct colors, surpassing the industry standard by a factor of 40. • Speed: Processes images in 4 milliseconds, four times faster than the industry standard. • Edge Computing: Can train models to work locally without a cloud connection. NVAI API: Empowering Innovation NeuroVision AI calls its API the NVAI API. This tool licenses the solutions produced by FROM YOUR EYES, enabling developers, businesses, and startups to develop their own technologies. The NVAI API excels in artificial vision, providing a powerful tool for visual data processing needs. Capabilities of NVAI API: • Object detection and classification in images and videos. • Logo and brand recognition. • Facial recognition and sentiment analysis. • Optical character recognition (OCR). • Visual search and content-based image retrieval. • Visual data analytics.
