Artificial Intelligence
When developing a process which is considering more than traditional structured/unstructured data, the use of Artificial Intelligence processes are the typical prescription. Specifically, tasks which are easy for humans, but hard for computers.
Do you want to build an X-Games trick skiing robot? Autonomous vehicles might be an obvious example, but how about an android with facial actuation which can interact in a hospital's neonatal unit, to not only interact & comfort newborns, but also detect their facial sentiment & document and alert nurses if necessary. Perhaps we're not ready for this intimate of interaction with machines.
But, following this concept, many endangered species imprint after birth or hatch, and as such, they are fed with puppets which mimic their species, in order to most easily identify with their species, when released back into the wild. Currently this is puppeteering is most often performed manually...But what if we trained an Artificially Intelligent animatronic, which feeds, plays, and socializes these endangered species? You could reduce the human workload, scale the recovery, reduce the cost, reduce risk of the species imprinting on a human, better prepare them for release into the wild, and quite possibly, literally save an endangered species from extinction.
