4 Apps that are changing Industries


AIRBNB
Airbnb has changed the game for travelers all around the world, creating a platform where people offer their houses as an alternative form of lodging. 
Using this app you'll be able to find a place to stay in almost any city, and with the help of search filters you will find the place that adapts better to your needs.




UBER
Starting in San Francisco, Uber is changing the transportation industry. You can order car service with your phone, where a driver will pick you up and take you to the desired place. This is a cheaper and safer option for people to move around and thanks to the competition it has created with taxi services many countries are fighting against it. 
This service is available in 58 countries and is constantly creating more options for its costumers.



SNAPCHAT
This app is based on ephemeral messages: Once you see them, they disappear, you can't save them. If you make a screenshot of the sent picture, the sender will be notified.
This app has around 100 million daily users, and many companies feature interactive content in their Discover section.




LARK
This app helps people keep track of their meals and workouts with the help of artificial intelligence. It has become a great help for those who want to start a healthier lifestyle.
With Lark you'll feel like you're talking to a personal health coach.

Car Innovations

It seems like self-driving cars are the tendency for the future. Many brands are starting to bet on this by designing new features that adapt to this technology.

Here are some of our favorite concepts:

Tesla Autopilot
Tesla says that While truly driverless cars are years away, their Autopilot function works like the systems that airplane pilots use when conditions are clear.

Imagine a car that detects your stress levels and gives you a massage if necessary. This is the proposal  made during the Connected Car Expo in Los Angeles by Faurecia and Stanford's University Center For Design.
The car measures several factors like heart-rate and alert the driver through a tablet that a massage is advised. Click here for more information

For those of you that don't have the concept clear, Innovation is a process where ideas or inventions are translated into a good or service that create value. 

An innovator is a risk taker since he creates both revolutionary products and new markets.

Innovation is present everywhere, from products to programs, sites and services. If you create something that makes life easier, better, you are already innovating.

As a thank you to everyone who is working to make a better world, we will post small articles on things we find interesting so everyone can know about it.
