Big Techday 24
Exhibits
The exhibits from this year's Big Techday 24 will be published here on an ongoing basis. Stay tuned!
AI Slides
You provide a title, AI Slides automagically generates a complete slide deck from that, with headlines, notes and matching images. Even the presentation performance is taken over by artificial intelligence: a realistic Deepfake avatar - trained with the knowledge of the entire Internet - guides you through the slides. Visitors can even become the speakers of this interactive showcase themselves.
High Line
AI Summarizer
LLMs like GPT-3, ChatGPT and GPT-4 are able to distill information from text but the current limits of the OpenAI API prohibit the upload of longer pieces of text. Similar to a concept from OpenAI our AI Summarizer works around the length limitations by splitting the source
text into smaller chunks that can be summarized individually and combined into a final summary.
Highline
Blobby VR
This Virtual Reality multiplayer game takes you to a virtual beach where you'll be one of two blobs taking part in a volleyball tournament in the style of the legendary game "Blobby Volley". You'll need a lot of skill to catapult the ball into the opponent's field with your head, while your human opponent tries to prevent that from happening. Wireless Virtual Reality glasses are used to prevent you from stumbling over a cable.
High Line
Confluence Translator
One challenge of the internationalisation of TNG is the knowledge base in Confluence, which has historically grown in German. TNG's solution is the Next Generation Translator for Confluence, which enables users to translate Confluence pages from German to English with only one mouse click. The highlight: The data never leaves our infrastructure. Potentially sensitive documents don't have to go through external servers.

KameraKInd
For our all hands meeting, we created an AI that can automatically focus the person currently talking - a task that was done by a human controlling the camera before. The camera will automatically detect all persons present in the picture and focus the person that is most actively speaking at the moment. Try it out for yourself in this showcase.

Meminto - The AI Base Meeting Minutes Tool
Instead of being distracted by writing notes, would you rather concentrate fully on your meetings? Then this is the right showcase for you! Meminto is our AI-based tool that automatically creates protocols for you from the audio recording of a meeting. Come along and get your own impression of the current status of the project. Take the opportunity to learn more about exciting AI technologies such as "pyannote.audio", which is used to distinguish between different speakers, or "Whisper", which is used for speech-to-text processing.
High Line
Music AI
This exhibit offers relaxing background music, in the style of LoFi HipHop and based on samples generated by Artificial Intelligence.
The goal of the project is to compose music with the help of artificial intelligence - live 24/7 and without repetition. For this purpose, we have chosen a genre which is already known by YouTube continuous streams.
High Line
Nao Showcase
With the help of humanoid robots and 3D camera sensors for gesture recognition you can control a humanoid robot without contact. The Innovation Hacking Team has implemented a gesture control system based on a Nao robot and a Kinect One. This showcase is displayed in the new robotics exhibition of the Deutsches Museum Munich but can also be tried out at the Big Techday.
Kesselhaus
Please CLI
Please CLI replaces the man pages of all Unix tools you know. With please, you can speak to your Linux terminal in natural language, and the tool will automatically translate the query into shell commands. If the result is still unclear to you, you can ask the script questions about the resulting command. Try Please CLI for yourself in this interactive showcase.
High Line
Portrait Editor
With the portrait editor, you can create professional (or not so professional but fun) profile images from any existing picture of yourself. The tool will align your face, size it the right way for a professional picture, and replace the background. You can even change your attire and dress up if you just had a jogging suit on in your original picture. Try it out for yourself in this showcase.
High Line
Real-time Deepfakes
Imagine standing in front of a mirror where you are no longer looking at your own face, but rather at Donald Trump's. In real-time, an AI system swaps out your head while preserving your facial expressions. With this showcase you will experience yourself from a completely different perspective. Using neural networks, faces are detected in the video input, translated into another personality and integrated back into the video output, while their facial expressions remain unchanged.
High Line
Style Transfer
What if Virtual Reality glasses could transform your environment into a huge 3D painting and everything would appear in the style of a work of art by Van Gogh, for example? In this showcase this vision becomes reality. A technique from the field of Artificial Intelligence called "Style Transfer" creates a patchwork from two images that shows reality in the style of an artwork. The resulting images are displayed in real time in 3D using Virtual Reality glasses.
Kesselhaus
TRUST AI Technical Rider
TRUST AI uses a dialogue between the visitor and a machine to explore the role of digital change and its significance for people and society. A glass cube with a holographic representation of a human face is placed on a table. An AI connects with the user. In the course of the dialogue, the visitor's face is captured by the machine and the machine assumes the visitor's identity.
