15. Gigabit-networked microscopy to extend reach of research universities Differentiators Chattanooga STEM students gain access to researchers, 4k microscopic images, and knowledge from 1,800 miles away Students able to learn about and manipulate sophisticated microscope in real time Analysis of Pacific micro-organisms integrated into STEM biology curriculum Low-latency gigabit networks enable three simultaneous streams: high-resolution images, video conferencing, and microscope manipulation Demo Participants Dr. Richard Weinberg, USC School of Cinematic Arts Student Maria Jefferson from Chattanooga STEM high school Enable Experiential Learning

17. Virtual-reality based training for wind and solar industry workers Differentiators Entry-level trainees learn relevant skills via immersive, cloud-based VR platform Educational modules will help train thousands of workers in solar cell and small wind turbine design, installation and maintenance tasks System reduces investment in equipment, lab space, personnel, and field visits Platform to be made available to 60+ BTOP-funded public computing centers in Philadelphia Public computing centers able to offer VR-based training by being connected to local cloud storage and compute capabilities via gigabit networks Demo Participants Professor Kapil Dandakar, Drexel University Train the “tech generation” workforce

18. Cleveland’s EDA-funded 100 Gig fiber network drives innovation and jobs Differentiators 100 Gig-enabled 3-mile Health-Tech corridor has brought new jobs from big data companies, developers, and data centers Early College High School (within John Jay HS) graduation rate went from <40% to #1 in state in part through use of gigabit video collaboration platform OneCommunity partnered with 40 cities in NE Ohio through its "Big Gig Challenge" to support deployment of broadband infrastructure to downtown innovation zones, and foster research accelerators, public safety applications, and new services for community health clinics Demo Participants Lev Gonick, CEO, OneCommunity Spur economic development and entrepreneurship
