Frederick, Maryland,
July 25, 2001 - Tangent Research announced today the
beta version release of FuzzBox, a web accessible
gateway to an artificial intelligence system formed by a
network of computers and microprocessors using proprietary
peer-to-peer connectivity and distributed processing algorithms
and methods developed by Tangent Research.
FuzzBox allows
a user or device anywhere in the world to have access to
artificially intelligent software, while using a web browser,
mobile phone, or PDA connected to the Internet. The system
learns to make real-time decisions based on user inquiries
and dynamic environmental scenarios.
"This marks an
important advancement of next generation devices and software,"
said Hans Scharler, inventor and Vice-President of Research
at Tangent Research. "We are only beginning to fully
understand how this technology will take us from science
fiction to science reality. The ability to have artificial
intelligence embedded on any system connected to the Internet
fascinates us, and propels our dedication to creating practical
artificial intelligence."
The current application
of the web-deployable software acts as a search engine that
allows users to search through databases and websites with
results predicted by a learning curve of use for increased
relevance to the user. Spending time with the system allows
the software agent to make better decisions and mine data
more effectively for its user.
As noted by Rob Dawson,
President of Tangent Research, "FuzzBox technology
will be available for commercial demonstration and licensing
in the next few months. We are testing the technology in
a number of communication devices, network elements, search
engine scenarios, and prediction systems."
