Speaker:  Jacob Loewenstein ’11, S’12

AV/VR Business Development & Product Strategy, Samsung Next

“The Phone is Only the Beginning:  What Will It Take

To Make AR Worth Wearing a Computer on Your Face?”

Samsung Next, the software and services innovation arm of Samsung, develops products, invests in startups and acquires businesses ready for scale in the frontier technology areas of VR, AR and MR (Virtual, Augmented and Mixed Reality). After studying the intersection of media theory and public policy at Princeton, Jacob earned an MBA at MIT Sloan, where he co-founded VR/AR @ MIT. His talk will survey the advancements in these fields that have generated excitement and anticipation in the marketplace, but have yet to become an ever-present part of our lives.  He will also appraise the further technological progress that will be required for AR to become so seamless and so realistic that it will be worth wearing computers on our faces.

Speaker:  Rich Hollingsworth ’71

Director of Operations, High Asset Tagging, Tego, Inc.

“Radio-Frequency ID in Aerospace, Life Sciences & Beyond:
Collecting, Storing, Managing and Using Intelligent Asset Data”

Managing high value assets, by simple Internet of Things (IoT) connection to “Big Data,” leads to inefficiencies in handling large volumes of disparate data over long periods (e.g., decades).  Asset identification by reading barcode or RFID EPC and sending to “Big Data” to retrieve asset data is likewise limiting, where Internet protocols don’t make sense due to cost, latency, or environmental conditions.  But “intelligent assets” use RFID tags with asset data permanently stored on the asset and read by a simple RFID reader --- eliminating the need for “Big Data.”  After describing how Tego delivers its high memory RFID technology core “intelligent assets” in the aerospace and life science industries, Rich Hollingsworth will delineate the semiconductor and software development challenges yet to be met, before “intelligent assets” can be extended to many other industries.

“Stakeholder Mechanics in Shaping Climate Change Policy: 
Weighing Carbon Fee & Dividend Options for New Jersey”

A4P - Princeton Area PA3 Presents

2018 ACADEMY AWARD® NOMINEE - BEST DOCUMENTARY FEATURE

ABACUS: small enough to jail 

When: Wednesday, May 2, 4:30PM - 6:30PM 

Where: Princeton University, Whitman College Theatre 

From Steve James - Director of Hoop Dreams and Life Itself

ABACUS: small enough to jail tells the incredible saga of the Chinese immigrant Sung family, owners of Abacus Federal Savings of Chinatown, New York. Accused of mortgage fraud by Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus R. Vance, Jr., Abacus becomes the only U.S. bank to face criminal charges in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis. The indictment and subsequent trial forces the Sung family to defend themselves – and their bank’s legacy in the Chinatown community – over the course of a five-year legal battle."

Chanterelle Sung '00 plays herself in this Oscar nominated documentary.  She and her sisters Jill and Vera will visit Princeton and after the movie, serve on a Q&A panel moderated by Professor Beth Lew-Williams and Joyce Chen Shueh '96. Of the four Sung sisters, three were trained as lawyers, the fourth a physician — including Jill Sung, the bank’s chief executive, and Vera Sung, a director of the bank — and Chanterelle ‘00 who ironically once worked in the district attorney’s office that prosecuted the case.
