GetFocus Unlocks Early Signals of Technology Disruption, Giving R&D Teams a Decisive Edge

AI-Driven Technology Forecasting Enables R&D Organizations to Make Informed Decisions in a Fraction of Traditional Time

R&D teams face immense pressure to make swift and effective technology investment decisions. Traditional methods often fall short, overwhelmed by the sheer volume of emerging technologies. GetFocus offers a revolutionary approach, employing AI to analyze global invention data and forecast technological futures based on technology improvement rates (TIR). Inspired from research developed at MIT, GetFocus moves beyond trend monitoring to deliver actionable, quantitative insights.


This data-driven methodology allows for the early identification of potential technology disruptors. For example, GetFocus' data indicated that Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) batteries began showing signs of emerging as a dominant technology as early as mid-2000, based on their accelerating improvement rates. This crucial early signal significantly preceded the technology's broad industry adoption for electric vehicles starting around 2010. This demonstrates GetFocus' capability to predict major technological shifts years in advance.

Model TR1 Tru-Trac

Model TR1 Tru-Trac

The Model TR1 Tru-Trac® linear measurement solution is a versatile option for tracking velocity, position, or distance over a wide variety of surfaces. An integrated encoder, measuring wheel, and spring-loaded torsion arm in one, compact unit, the Model TR1 is easy to install. The spring-loaded torsion arm offers adjustable torsion load, allowing the Model TR1 to be mounted in almost any orientation - even upside-down. The threaded shaft on the pivot axis is field reversible, providing mounting access from either side. With operating speeds up to 3000 feet per minute, a wide variety of configuration options - including multiple wheel material options - and a housing made from a durable, conductive composite material that minimizes static buildup, the Model TR1 Tru-Trac® is the ideal solution for countless applications.
