La French Tech Booth Interviews CES Show 2022 Lafrenchtech.com

Hi folks, Chris Voss here from thechrisvossshow.com. Hey, coming at you here from CES 2022. We're down in Eureka Park in the La French Tech area. We're talking with Clara. Clara, how are you? Great. I'm very excited to be here. It's actually my first CES. This is a very particular edition I heard,

but we're here with 140 French Tech startups. So we're very, very excited to be all together. The CES has always been very important for French Tech because this is where in 2014 the French Tech was actually launched. Awesome. Do you guys have a website where people can go look up the main thing, part of what you do? Yes, you can look at our website. It website is very simple lafrenchtech.com and here you can have all the information about the French tech startup movement all the programs we offer to startups but also for people who might want to relocate to

France you'll find all the information about our French tech visa and the welcome to France program awesome so what do you want to show us today? So we have a lot of companies, I said we have 140. It's very hard to pick and choose because there's so many great innovations around there. We have companies in all the sectors, FinTech, Blockchain, Retail, GreenTech, but we selected a bunch of companies that you thought you might be interested in. And we actually... Alright, so tell us Baptiste, what do you have here?

This is B-Balance. So B-Balance is a bath mat, but it's a smart bath mat. We wanted to revolutionize the way people were tracking their health indexes. So our vision is the fact that during 100 years, the way we were tracking our weight hasn't changed at all. We still have an old scale that we have to put out of the storage, step on it. It's not a very convenient habit and we don't want to do that every day. With BeBalanced, you step on it as you do on a normal bath mat and every day when you brush your teeth or when you dry your hair, we record your weight, your body composition and we also evaluate your posture and your balance so you can see that you can see my footprint oh you can see my footprint

here my weight and in fact I am being recognized thanks to this footprint to say that Apple invented Touch ID, and we invented Footprint ID. So the bath map knows to which account to send the data. So in this case, it's me, and I can track my data every day without any effort because I will step on my map, and I don't have to think about my weight and so on anymore. I will get everyday data, meaningful data. Wow, that's pretty. Is that a heat map or is that pressure map?

It's a heat map. It's a pressure map of my feet, and you can see here my center of gravity moving during the measure. Oh! You know, my mother just had knee surgery, and one of the problems she had, she had both knees done, and one of the problems she had was, I think either her leg or her back was making her tilt one way. Exactly, it's one of our use cases. In fact, the rehabilitation after surgery with our app, you can track your recovery and see your indexes going better and better. And we also propose some exercises

with the live feedback of your COG, like with some gamification when you have to reach some targets with your COG. It's something that has been used in hospital and we want to bring that technology at home at a way lower cost to everybody so that everybody can profit from a good recovery and an efficient one. That's really important because I know she said to go to doctors to try and... Yeah, it's not very convenient. People still have to go to doctor, but they can improve at home, taking the advice of doctor, so that the recovery can be way more fast.

Now, I think you guys won some awards with this? Yeah, we won an award two years ago, and we won an award this year about our coaching experience and our analysis of indexes, more by the software. Congratulations! Where can people go to find out more? They can find out here on this QR code, but I will maybe say the link. We have our website bbalance.io where people can order B Balance. We are doing a special offer during CES. The promo code is CES22 where people can buy that for $2.49. Oh, wow. Awesome sauce.

All right. Well, thank you very much. We certainly appreciate it. Thank you to you. Have a good day. Have a good show. Have a great show. And guys, be sure to check out the French Tech Connection.

B-Ballons from Barracuda. What's that? B-Ballons from Barracuda. There you go. And 60407 booth here at CES. Be sure to come down check it out. Say hello to them. And all that good stuff and check them out online. Alright guys and now we're touring another booth, Le French Tech. Hi, so we're now after Health Tech. We're now in the Sport Tech sector. And I'm very pleased to introduce my coach. Jérémy will tell us more about what my coach is doing.

Okay, thank you Clara. Hello, how are you doing man? I'm fine, thank you, very fine. I'm very happy to welcome you on the My Coach Tracker booth. So what do we have here? We have My Coach Tracker. My Coach Tracker is the first FIFA approved GPS device made specifically for players of soccer, les joueurs de soccer amateurs.

Donc, qu'est-ce que c'est? C'est là pour régler une énorme anomalie, car avec 400 millions de joueurs mondiaux, malgré cette position prédominante, le soccer a une grande faible technologie au niveau amateur. has a very big lack in technology at amateur level. Indeed, if you go on any Sunday leagues, you will not find any piece of technology on player. So we are here to fix this anomaly with this proposition. And how it works? It's really the professional technology

we try to bring to amateur levels. It's a solution really for the players. It works with a GPS and an accelerometer. It records 10 times a second the position of the player on the field. It's totally autonomous. You can leave your smartphone on the changing room during the game.

And the FIFA approval is very important because it's the only way to be allowed to wear something on the field. Awesome. What's the website people can look allowed to wear something on the field. Awesome. What's the website people can look it up at? What the, sorry? What's the website people can look it up at? The website is michaelschrecker.com.

There you go. www.michaelschrecker.com. And in the end with this, it's a B2C experience, very gamified and very modern with a nice looking approach. And what you will have in the end, you will have nine metrics that we have shortlisted as the most essential ones in modern soccer. And you have the gamified layer, the gamification layer of the experience, which is the My Coach Score.

The My Coach Score helps you to qualify your performance compared to what the best player achieves with the same profile as you. I mean the same profile with the same age, the same gender, and the same position on the pitch, which is quite unique on the market now. And it totally GPS tracks you. Now, is this the app for it? This is the application. So it is available for iOS and Android too. It's a very nice looking one. We are still on the very vivid color. It's something very fun. Everything has been made to make the experience fun and nice looking

and very simple. And here what we see is my personal score. All games participate in some way in improving my score and I can see with the sub-score at a glance what are my weaknesses and what are my strengths. So it's a very central concept of the experience. All right, sounds good then. What's the URL for the website again? It's www.mycoachtracker.com. It's already available.

It has been launched in French right now in late December. And now this is the goal of our participation here in the CES 2022. It's to scale up abroad and see how we could reach the mass of players all around the world to tell them this solution exists. It is here for you and just do something together. There you go. Well, thank you very much. Have a great show. Yeah, thank you. All right. All right, we're at the next booth here at La French Tech, 60633.

Check out these booths here with us. What do we have here today, guys? So we're going to a sport tech booth. It's called Fair Vision. And I'm going to let Jean-Michel introduce the company. Okay, sounds good. I think we got that. So give us your URL, your website, so people can see your website. Yeah. What's your website link? Oh the website is www.fairvision.fr. There you go. Okay and what are you guys showing off today here? Okay what we are showing out is the technology. We have decided to masterize the whole value chain from the video captation, which is 100% wireless.

Our systems are outdoor, totally autonomous. We monitor the transmission of the video flux, and then our core business is computer vision where we treat throughout our algorithm uh the the video we are getting we broadcast the video the sports event and at the same time we measure automatically the performance of the sports guys on the pitch without any sensor no chips no gps nothing oh wow and and i see on the screen there that it it puts the names of the guys and everything. Absolutely. It recognizes your jersey, the color of your jersey, the number you have, so you can connect it to the ID through the match sheet. And then eventually the family, the players, the coach, everybody, I would say in the ecosystem throughout the application can get connected to the video, can generate clips, share them

on social networks, get their performance. You have graphical tools. We associate video and data automatically. Now I noticed you guys have like a website or a panel dashboard or something there? Yeah. So is that what people work with to edit videos? Yeah, absolutely. So everything is connected. Okay. So total AI system, it goes to the sport. Who are your customers usually? So we have a business model which is B2B2C.

B2B, that's for academy typically or clubs. It can be cities as well for their smart stadium. And then as far as the customer is concerned, it's everybody. The players, the coach, could be the family brothers sister friends supporters fans whoever there you go there you go anything more we need to know about what you guys are doing here just remember that it's the sole solution in the world which is a hundred percent wireless thanks to photovoltaic energy so it's a combination between deep tech and solar energy.

There you go. Give us your URL, your website again, please. Yeah, www.fairvision.fr. And if you want to get connection to our app, it's www.app-fairvision.com. There you go. Well, thank you very much. And thanks to La French Tech Booths for having us. 60633 for the last two booths. You can see that they have a whole section down here. There's just rows and rows of different booths. So be sure to come down here and check them out at Eureka Park. Thanks, everyone.

Thanks, Chris. Ciao, ciao. All right.
