	Innovator: Peter Ma (USA)
	Project: Clean Water AI
	Description: According to the World Health Organization, every minute a newborn dies from infection caused by a lack of safe water and an unclean environment. To alleviate this, developer Peter Ma built an AI system to detect harmful bacteria in water in real-time, without needing to connect to the cloud. His Clean Water AI prototype is powered by the Intel Movidius Neural Compute Stick and has a 95 percent accuracy rate.

	Innovator: Peter Ma (USA)
	Project: BlueScan AI (formerly Dr Hazel)
	Description: According the CDC, skin cancer is the most common form of cancer in the United States, with more than 80,000 new cases in 2015. After losing a friend to cancer, Peter Ma created BlueScan AI, which uses the Intel Movidius Neural Compute Stick to screen for skin cancer in real time.
