Anonyome Labs was created to give people control and freedom over their personal and private information. Anonyome believes that people should be able to determine how, what, and with whom they share those details. The company is building the tools that shift the balance of power from the public and private data brokers, advertisers, and organizations demanding your personal information back to you, the user.
Leveraging experience in identity management, cybersecurity, and consumer applications, the Anonyome Labs team is devoted to shifting control and choice back to the individual by giving every user the power to create a Sudo for their digital world. A Sudo can be used for searching, shopping, selling, or socializing – all without revealing sensitive personal information – while giving users complete ownership and control over their digital identity.

After over a decade of R&D, Forced Physics has released innovative server cooling that will drastically change the way data centers are built and operated. Simple and efficient, its cooling solution is flexible enough for Cloud, containerized Edge, Colocation, or Enterprise deployments. Requiring only filtered outside air, Forced Physics simplifies data-center design, eliminating the need for liquid cooling, server fans, A/Cs, and cooling towers. So efficient, it achieves a mPUE of 1.02 – even in Phoenix. Forced Physics’ patented technology is green – reducing cooling energy by over 90% using no water. Data centers of the future will be simpler, cleaner, and cheaper.

The mission of Nanovision is to restore sight to blind patients afflicted with degenerative retinal disorders for which there currently is no cure. Nanovision is achieving this through its unique, surgically implantable nanotechnology device. Nanovision’s technology is singularly unique in how the sub-retinal device tailors the electrical neural stimulation parameters to the individual patient. It is the most advanced technology available capable of achieving such a degree of patient specificity. Nanovision will be commencing a human study within 18 months and is currently leading the field with its innovative approach.
Nanovision also has a non-biological low-light image sensor division, focused on DoD night vision and low-light CMOS sensors for cameras, autonomous driving, and many other imaging applications. Both biological and non-biological divisions share a common technology platform.

Titan Seal puts government records in the Blockchain
If someone contests your title change or license in court, they may claim you forged those documents. Even if you present a notarized paper with a stamp or seal, those seals can be faked.
Titan Seals, on the other hand, are stored on the Blockchain. Once added, records on the Blockchain can never be deleted or changed. Titan Seal ensures trust between the government and the public.
