Amazon Launches Series on Hi-Tech, with Focus on Israel's Startup Nation


(Times of Israel) Nadine Wojakovski - Over 50 cutting-edge Israeli tech companies are featured in the first season of a new series released on Amazon Prime Video on Oct. 18 called "TechTalk." The show's creator is co-founder of Tech Talk Media, Jonny Caplan, a British-born entrepreneur who moved from England to Israel in 2013. Tel Aviv has the highest concentration of startups per capita in the world. The showcased startups include EyeRon Systems, makers of toughened first response drones that fly indoors into burning buildings to give fire fighters earlier warnings. Intuition Robotics pioneers a small robot called ElliQ to provide companionship for the elderly. ElliQ provides someone to talk to and checks up on its "companion," suggesting exercise, games to play and even connects via Skype to family members. The first season includes flying cars, 3D holographic surgery, the Israeli robot soccer team, cannabis scanners, car hackings, augmented reality snowboarding, and mind-controlled gaming.
