HENDERSON, NV / ACCESSWIRE / April 1, 2019 / Tech stocks are back in vogue this year; below we’ve highlighted some. Two major areas to concentrate on in tech are artificial intelligence (AI) and Internet of Things (IoT) opportunities. Due to AI, global GDP is expected to reach almost $15.7 trillion in the next decade. It has the potential to increase business efficiency by 40 %. The combined markets of the Internet of Things (IoT) will grow to about $520B in 2021. In other words, get on board, because these are going to be major market drivers.
There has been 14 times more growth in AI startups and investment in AI has grown 6 times more in the last 19 years.
One company that has an AI and IoT component is Gopher Protocol Inc. (GOPH). The company recently completed initial testing of its Avant! AI mobile application, which is the interface to Gopher’s Avant! AI system. Gopher Protocol has a suite of mobile applications, GopherInsightâ„¢ and their Avant! Machine learning system, which connects to several devices on the network, an Internet of Things (IoT) component. It announced today that it has released its Avant! AI mobile app, available for download for Android -and iOS mobile devices. With McDonalds and SAS each making news recently about investments in AI, investors are hungry for opportunities in the space, so start your research now.

Gopher Protocol Inc. (GOPH) (Market Cap: $95.217M; Share Price: $0.449) has completed several tests recently. One of the recent tests cleared GOPH for field testing outdoors. Other recent research analyses identified successful cognitive robotics features where robots were able to sense their environment by means of integrated sensors, location, and computer vision. The company’s AI artificial intelligence engine was successfully integrated into robots resulting in improvements in robots’ perception and understanding of human activities and verbal communications.
The company announced it had filed a non-provisional patent application with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) covering Gopher’s 3D microchip design and manufacturing technology. The goal of the technology specified in this application is to facilitate the design and manufacturing of superior computing microchips to power AI systems, wireless and IoT/Mobile systems.
In the IoT department, GOPH initiated testing multiple antenna types and configurations as part of the final phase of development for its mesh network gateway device. Antennas are a crucial part of any wireless system, being the central communicator between wireless clients, so this announcement was very promising.
