Dermot KeoghHOST
and you know we also noticed john how what a great advocate he is for independent practices for both optometrists and ophthalmologists and that you know he really encourages ophthalmologists to be leaders in their practice too and he not only just advocates it but he cheerleads it and is there to support and not hide any secrets he was saying come on down to the central for sight yeah know come and see what he's got to do so i think that was that was a real take-home message
John FerrisHOST
exactly in his words being captain of the healthcare ship and not being answerable to venture capital and to private equity you can choose how to run your practice and doing what's best for your patients So we hope you've really enjoyed the podcast.
John FerrisHOST
Of course, we also want to once again thank our supporters, Topcon Healthcare and TAEA UK.
John FerrisHOST
So until next time, it's goodbye from me.
John FerrisHOST
And it's goodbye from me.
Tyler NidayGUEST
So I think having all this data in one place in a consumable digestible format to the grower, to be able to do these types of things is huge.
Tyler NidayGUEST
One thing we're doing right now is we partnered with Topcon on their yield map products that were traditionally built for potatoes.
Tyler NidayGUEST
We created a yield map of an almond orchard.
Tyler NidayGUEST
And with our autonomous solution, we're able to do a heavy nitrogen foliar application on the heavy yielding trees, right, to try and boost the production there.
Caleb AllmanHOST
I don't understand it.
Caleb AllmanHOST
Anyways, um, one of them is my Topcon total station.
Caleb AllmanHOST
I'll get out of the business if I have to go back to bringing out tape measures and measuring wheels to document job sites.
Caleb AllmanHOST
Uh, the other one is a CFO.
Lee KuczewskiHOST
So today, we're joined with Keith Brock, Heru's Chief Product Officer, covering a broad set of topics spanning from what it takes to be a great product leader, how to build great products, thoughts on AI in eye care, and how innovation isn't always a straight line.
Lee KuczewskiHOST
Keith is a two-time CES award winner with over fifteen years of product management experience, who has successfully brought to market over sixty products in the medical space from Topcon to Carl Zeiss to Optos.
Lee KuczewskiHOST
Keith, it's a treat to have you on with us today.
Lee KuczewskiHOST
Thank you so much for making the time to connect with Masud and I.
Taylor WhiteHOST
I mean, it's 70,000 just to get my machine upkitted from...
Taylor WhiteHOST
Like, to do full 3D GPS control, uh, whether it's, you know, Trimble or Topcon or whatever, right? It's like 70 to $80,000 to get somebody to come out and fully set it up, give you all the software, put the stuff on your machine.
Taylor WhiteHOST
So, like, I can only imagine what this costs.
Taylor WhiteHOST
Because I'm sure that, yes, these machines right now, they come with, uh, you know, cameras and sensors.
