Tapping tech to cover new ground

A GADGET no larger than a credit card that can read not only the health of the car, but also the driver's behaviour; and a digital lock that is set to drastically reduce pilferage and also revolutionalise the buying experience.
They sound like two very different businesses - and they do, to be fair, target very different industries - but they are both IT-based platform businesses, and form the core of the new direction being taken by Equation Summit, says CEO Eddie Chng.
Equation has been going down the IT route for some time now - early last year, they launched a new app, ListenIN which delivers multi-language audio content directly to visitors' smartphones and uses positioning technology to synchronise the narration to the exact location of the exhibit.
