SKU | 7840423097507 |
Thanks to the digital technology revolution, cameras are everywhere – PDAs, mobile phones, anywhere you can put an imaging chip and a lens. Battling to usurp the market is a Silicon Valley company, Foveon, whose technology not only produces a superior image, but also may become the eye in artificially intelligent machines. Behind Foveon are two legendary figures who made the personal computer possible: Carver Mead of Caltech, one of the founding fathers of information technology, and Federico Faggin, inventor of the CPU – the chip that runs every computer. George Gilder has an insider’s knowledge of Silicon Valley and the unpredictable mix of genius, drive and luck that can turn a start-up company into a world leader. The Silicon Eye focuses on some of the brightest – and most colourful – people on earth and their race to transform an industry.
GEORGE GILDER, the best-selling author of numerous books – including Telecosm, Microcosm and The Spirit of Enterprise – also publishes the influential Gilder Technology Report.
