The Bragi brand has always been known for manufacturing "smart" wireless earphones. One of their most popular products is the Dashb wireless earbuds, funded with the help of crowdfunding platform Kickstarter. However, the company revealed that its main goal is to create artificial intelligence (AI) and to eventually sell and license it.

The company recently shared that they are developing what they call Nano AI, an AI platform that is not tied to one use, but aims to be universal. Bragi CEO Nikolaj Hviid said that they expect Nano AI to be used in a wide variety of fields including medicine, industry, automotive, wearables, agriculture, aerospace and defense.

While the premise of the Nano AI may seem ambitious, Hviid already has a vision of what the Nano AI will be capable of.

At its core, the Nano AI will incorporate machine learning, which means that, barring certain limitations, it can adapt to virtually any situation and task it is given.

Hviid further illustrated the capabilities of the Nano AI by giving a practical example. He said that for instance, the Nano AI can be integrated into a software that works with an electric drill. The drill manufacturer would license the AI from Bragi, and it can then be put to work on the drill.

As for its actual functionality, Hviid said that the drill manufacturer could "train" Nano AI to recognize shifts in pressure and vibrations and store it as data that correspond to different materials. The resulting drill would then be able to "recognize" the material and adjust its operation accordingly. Or it could also warn the user of unexpected materials that the drill hits, like a stray piece of metal or wood.

While Bragi is primarily focused on Nano AI, it does not mean that they have completely neglected the development of headphones. Just recently they had an initiative called the "Project Ears," which is next phase in their ear enhancement endeavors.
