Over the last decade, researchers have explored a wide array of technologies that could revolutionize battery life and bolster device performance.
In the minds of most people, a battery is an electrochemical system with a positive and a negative terminal. This presentation will examine where firmware, software and cloud based AI-analytics will change that perception.
Come along and hear from industry expert Simon Chan, ACS Digital Disruptor award winner, and discover why the line of demarcation between software and physical systems is definitely blurring.

Speakers
In 2015, he won the ACS award for “Digital Disruptor - National ICT Professional of the Year”. While working at Intellect International, he was part of a team that brough wireless EFTPOS terminals into the world. While working at NearMap, he co-created a ground-breaking aerial photography system that produces high-resolution aerial photo imagery which is released every few weeks. While working at Remote Control Technologies, he worked closely with teams that brought us automated mining equipment into WA.
More recently, Simon began delving into Renewable Energy systems and was a co-founder at PowerPlus Energy. Right now, he is trying again to “break the rules” in creating a “Chemistry-agnostic” and “Software-defined” battery at RENOZ Energy, right here in Perth.
