5 Mobile Tech Startups that Are Revolutionizing Industries in 2019
Evolution has always been an integral part of mankind and technology is no exception. From the first working computer that almost occupied an entire room to our watches that come with computing powers, we have come a long way.
After the handheld and the internet boom, almost all of us have access to the internet from our smartphones today. Statistics reveal that the number of smartphone users across the world is over 2.7 billion.
Further, with the advent of apps, there is no doubt that our smartphones manage to grab our attention every four minutes.
Yes, and that’s regardless of whether there’s a notification or not.
That’s not it. Average users spend over 90% of their time on apps.
So, what does this reveal?
Two things –
- we are getting more things done from our apps
- companies are understanding this and working on further enhancing user experience
Besides, the mobile tech industry is all set to become a $189-billion industry by 2020 and it’s all immensely due to mobile tech startups understanding the needs of the market, making use of the latest technologies available and making the time spent by users worthwhile.
This post is especially dedicated to identifying a few mobile startups that are disrupting the market with their ideas, approach and the solutions they are attempting to solve.
AI is everywhere. In fact, recent developments in AI have been so dynamic that the Turing Test is almost crackable today. Working with the same intention is Front AI that leverages the potential of artificial intelligence to come up with chatbots for conversations with customers.
If you already didn’t know, most of us today are talking to bots for the resolution of our conflicts. Chatbots are solving cases so smoothly that we don’t have to talk to an agent for our problems (no doubt the satisfaction rate of customers using live chat is 73%). Automation has kicked in and Front AI promises conversational, user-friendly and cost-effective chatbots for businesses.
The avid readers you know are most alive when they have a book in their hands. Adding another dimension to their reading experience is BooksARalive — a one-of-a-kind concept where augmented reality and gamification are put to the best use for an interactive reading experience.
With BooksARalive, the startup attempts to make every scene/page interactive, add narrations in two languages, feature puzzles and mini challenges and exclusive games for an immersive experience. What if we also told you that you could take pictures with books’ characters using AR?
Today, almost anyone with a smartphone and an internet connection is a journalist. With platforms to express opinions aplenty, it’s fake speech than free speech that is doing the rounds today. Every day, we are cluttered with noises of news, where it’s impossible to differentiate between real and fake news. To put an end to this, Civil is making use of technology, designers and marketers to promote transparency in news domain, again.
One of the major purposes of technology has been to make healthcare more accessible and health information more sensible. Sano is here to prove this yet again. With an aim to take care of the rising concern of diabetes, Sano makes use of electronic health records, a mobile application and a wearable sensor to give you all the information you need about your body.
From monitoring your blood glucose levels and personalizing your diet to recommending you training routine for your fitness, Sano aims to bridge the gap between what you need to know and what you need to do about your body and its fitness. No wonder, the vision of the founder landed him a place in Forbes 30 Under 30.
Connected devices or the Internet of Things has become more than a buzzword today. Until a couple of years back, the technology was still on paper. But right now, it’s finding more applications across industries.
Making use of this technology to elevate farming and outdoor tasks is Burro from Augean Robotics — a collaborative robot designed to conveniently shuttle materials, tow trailers, run routs and do more. Its weatherproof feature allows it to seamlessly work under any conditions.
Wrapping Up
As smartphones become more powerful and advancements in cloud technology offer us more offshore features, we would probably be doing the most complex of tasks from our handheld devices.
With more developments and incorporation of artificial intelligence and machine learning, the future only looks more promising. And if you’re someone who has a game-changing idea but do not have the skills to turn it into a tangible mobile application, X-Byte Enterprise Solutions can help you out. Our expertise in developing Android, iOS and hybrid apps can nurture and transform your startup idea into a reality. Besides, our team of developers work in tandem to get the best version of your mobile app out in the market.
Good Luck!
