ForaCare to Showcase Telehealth and Smart Technology for Blood Pressure, Blood Glucose Monitoring at Arab Health Exhibition in Dubai January 25-28, Booth #SAG75

ST. GALLEN, Switzerland, January 26, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --

    Company to Feature New Fora(R) My Dongle Wireless Connectivity Tool

    ForaCare Suisse AG located in St. Gallen, Switzerland, plans to showcase its line of
telehealth and smart technology devices for blood pressure and blood glucose monitoring
tools, including its new FORA(R) My Dongle wireless connectivity tool during Arab Health
Congress in Dubai January 25-29. The ForaCare booth is #SAG75.

    ForaCare will specifically present the latest in diabetes and blood pressure
monitoring via its FORA and FORA(R) Diamond series products that work with a simple yet
advanced Telehealth System. Special features of the exhibition include the FORA(R) My
Dongle, a simple, inexpensive way users can quickly and wirelessly connect the FORA(R)
blood glucose meter and mobile devices including iPads, mobile phones, and Android
tablets. FORA(R) My Dongle is extremely lightweight and features Bluetooth(R) Smart 4.0
and the fastest transmission speed available to allow for real-time tracking of blood
glucose results anytime, anywhere.

    ForaCare will demonstrate the advanced features of the FORA(R) Diamond line of blood
pressure monitors including Averaging Mode and Irregular Heartbeat Mode. Averaging mode
provides a more accurate measurement of BP by making three consecutive measurements and
providing an average of the three. Irregular heartbeats can be accurately detected with
the device's Irregular Heartbeat Mode.

    "ForaCare Suisse AG is honored to again be involved in this important scientific
meeting," said Ty-Minh Tan, CEO of ForaCare Suisse AG. "We are pleased to be able to lead
the way with advanced technology while also educating people about how to best manage
their diabetes and blood pressure."

    All ForaCare monitoring devices are validated as highly accurate in the industry and
provide superior quality directly to consumers. FORA Blood Glucose Monitors are validated
according to ISO 15197:2013. requirements at an internationally renowned diabetes
institute in Ulm, Germany. ForaCare provides FDA cleared and CE marked innovative health
monitoring devices that provide simple connection to the FORA system. For more information,
please visit http://www.ForaCare.ch

    ABOUT DIAMOND SERIES PRODUCTS 

    The Diamond Series devices make it possible for patients to self-monitor as well as
track their health condition for better control. There is significant evidence that
patients who monitor their chronic conditions have better glycemic control, leading to
improved therapy outcomes and lower risk of long-term complications.

    ForaCare provides flexible solutions to bridge gaps among medical devices including
glucose meters, blood pressure monitors, and thermometers to transmission gateways and the
Internet-based backend system. FORA technology has embedded wired or wireless modules
(including ZigBee and Bluetooth) and provides corresponding home gateways to overcome
transmission barriers that patients face with other telehealth technologies.

u-blox M8 Multi-GNSS Receivers Achieve Higher Level of Performance, With Embedded Security

The new u-blox M8 now also supports Galileo and increases sensitivity and security

THALWIL, Switzerland, January 26, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --

    u-blox (SIX:UBXN), a global leader in wireless and positioning modules and chips,
announces the release of a new firmware, FW 3.01, for its u-blox M8 concurrent multi-GNSS
platform.

(Logo:
http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20150826/261282LOGO )

    u-blox M8 FW 3.01 now also supports Galileo, in addition to GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, QZSS
and SBAS.  It can track up to three constellations concurrently and makes use of all SBAS
and QZSS augmentation systems at the same time. With Galileo fully deployed, the European
positioning system will provide access to 24 additional satellites, thereby significantly
increasing availability of GNSS signals and further improving position accuracy in
challenging urban environments. u-blox M8 supports Galileo-based eCall, the European
emergency call system, which will be required in new vehicles starting 2018. u-blox M8 is
also compliant with ERA-GLONASS, eCall's Russian equivalent.

    In addition, with FW 3.01, u-blox M8 now boosts the BeiDou acquisition sensitivity and
adds support to the Indian GAGAN augmentation system.

    u-blox M8 chips and modules are able to operate reliably in difficult environmental
conditions as well as in a security attack scenario. Because a growing number of wireless
systems rely on GNSS positioning, the threat of attacks, such as diversion of drones or
hijacking of car electronics, has become very real. Security mechanisms are now embedded
in FW 3.01, the result of years of intense research at u-blox R&D labs. An anti-spoofing
feature detects fake GNSS signals, and a message integrity protection system prevents
"man-in-the-middle" attacks. Yet another security function detects and suppresses jamming.
Since all this functionality is already built into u-blox M8 FW 3.01, these security
mechanisms are a lot more effective than an external system implementation.

    Automotive-grade u-blox M8 products benefit from an extended operating temperature of
-40 to +105degree(s)C and are AEC-Q100 Grade 2 qualified. The extended temperature range
allows more flexibility in vehicle integration, for instance by integrating a u-blox M8
GNSS receiver into a roof-top antenna where temperatures can reach 105degree(s)C.

    Another welcome feature of FW 3.01 is the 10% power reduction compared to earlier
firmware versions of u-blox M8.

    "u-blox has reached another milestone to provide customers with performance they need
for advanced applications," says Uffe Pless, Product Manager Positioning, at u-blox.
"u-blox is at the forefront of ensuring GNSS security and remains the supplier of choice
for professional and automotive GNSS implementations."

    The u-blox M8 platform supports applications where navigation performance, reliability,
and high accuracy are paramount, whereas the recently announced u-blox 8
[https://www.u-blox.com/en/press-release/u-blox-releases-u%E2%80%91blox%C2%A08-new-gpsglonass-receiver-platform-low-power-devices ]
platform addresses power sensitive applications
such as wearables. u-blox M8 and u-blox 8 products are pin- and software compatibles.

    Firmware to upgrade existing flash-ROM based u-blox M8 products can be downloaded from
the u-blox website [https://www.u-blox.com/en/position-time ]. Products with FW 3.01 in
ROM will become available in Q2' 2016.

Three UK Deploys Polystar's Solutions to Provide Flexible Monitoring and Reporting for UK's First VoLTE Service Launch

STOCKHOLM, January 26, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --

    Polystar [http://www.polystar.com ], a leading supplier of Network and Customer

        Analytics, Network Monitoring and Test solutions to the telecoms industry, today

     announced

    that leading mobile network operator, Three UK [http://www.three.co.uk ] has selected

    Polystar's Network and Customer Insight solutions to deliver monitoring and reporting

    capabilities for its new Voice over LTE (VoLTE) services.

(Logo:
http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20130226/595502 )

        The solutions provide monitoring and assurance capabilities for the complete VoLTE

    service, spanning IMS controlled voice and text, as well as SRVCC for handover to the

    existing 3G network. In addition, Three's IP Multi-media Subsystem (IMS) platform, that

    delivers the Voice over LTE service, can also be used to support complementary

     services,

    voice over WiFi (VoWiFi). In time, these services must also be provided to users of

     other

    mobile networks, such as 2G and 3G. To support this objective, it was essential for

     Three

    UK that the solutions could be extended by software upgrades, so that their scope could

     be

    enhanced.

        The Polystar solutions also give Three UK analytics tools that enable both network

         and

    customer perspectives to be considered. This means that troubleshooting can be more

    effectively handled by different teams within Three UK's organisation. For example,

    Customer Insight [http://www.polystar.com/solutions/customer-insight ] data is provided

     to

    front-line customer care teams, while Network Insight

    [http://www.polystar.com/solutions/network-insight ] data can be delivered to those who

    need to access rich network information.

        In addition, an open API ensured that the Polystar solutions could be fully

         integrated

    with Three's existing CRM system. This means that teams can continue to use the

     existing

    and familiar CRM platform and at the same time benefit from the enriched data provided

     by

    the Network and Customer Insight solutions.

        VoLTE is a crucial service for Three UK, but it's also complicated. This level of

    complexity means that Three UK must be able to analyse and assure call quality over any

    connected domain - today this means LTE and WiFi - but in the future, this could also

    include 3G and even 2G networks. Polystar delivered a solution that will solve this

    challenge for the critical service launch, and which will evolve to meet new network

    capabilities in the future.

        "Polystar's adaptability was hugely important for Three UK, as it gave them

         confidence

    in our commitment to meeting their existing and future requirements," commented Anna

    Konberg, Regional Sales Director at Polystar. "Real-time network monitoring and

    performance management is essential for delivering the best customer experience. With

     the

    Polystar Network and Customer Insight solutions in place, Three UK will gain early

    visibility of potential issues, enabling proactive problem resolution and more

     effective

    customer service, helping to avoid potential churn."

        Polystar's Network and Customer Insight solutions help CSPs turn network data into

    actionable intelligence and enable them to quickly obtain a visual understanding of

    network and service performance, across different domains and technologies. Polystar's

    solutions help CSPs make better business decisions. By delivering facts to the right

    people, better and more informed decisions can be made, helping CSPs save time and

     money

    and ensuring the success of complex service launches, such as VoLTE.

        About Polystar 

        Polystar enables Communications Service Providers to achieve excellence in CEM, Big

    Data Analytics, Service Assurance, Network Monitoring and High Performance Testing. We

    help CSPs to simplify their CEM strategies and drive operational efficiency through

    real-time network analytics. Polystar's real-time Network and Customer Insights uncover

     a

    goldmine of data, which yields indispensible analytics to CSPs. Polystar is recognised

     as

    one of the fastest-growing companies in Sweden. Since Polystar's foundation in

     Stockholm

RPVaero.com Streamlines Drone Authorization Process As FAA Issues Mandatory Rules For Drone Use

WASHINGTON, Jan. 25, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- In December 2015, the FAA initiated specific rules governing the use of unmanned aircraft. Registration for the vast majority of drone types has become mandatory and all use of unmanned aircraft in the commercial or government realm are now required to obtain a special Certificate of Authorization (COA) or a FAA 333 Exemption depending on its use. These applications are complex, lengthy, and time consuming to prepare. 

The FAA is serious about the requirement to utilize COAs and FAA 333 exemptions for non-recreational flying and may impose fines of up to $250,000 and/or three years in prison.

Stine (Jack Black). Stine is very mysterious and a prisoner of his own imagination - the monsters that his books made famous are real, and he protects his readers by keeping them locked up in their manuscripts. When the monsters are accidentally unleashed and begin to terrorize the town, it's up to Stine, Zach and Hannah to get them back in their books where they belong!

Wikia launches Fandom, the Destination for Entertainment Fans

New site to Provide One-Stop-Shop for the Hottest Stories, Supported by Original, Curated and Fan-Created Content

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 25, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Wikia, the largest entertainment fan site in the world with 190 million global monthly uniques*, today announced the launch of Fandom (fandom.com), a media property that will give entertainment fans a new, comprehensive destination for the most timely and important entertainment and pop culture stories. Fandom is launching with a new, expanded editorial staff led by Eric Moro, VP, Programming, publishing daily original videos, as well as written and multi-media entertainment features. The new site offers fans comprehensive coverage on their favorite entertainment franchises including original Fandom features, in-depth content submitted from Fandom's "fan contributors", as well as curated content from "the best of the web" and social media; and highlights from Wikia's 360,000 fan communities. Fandom aims to be the ultimate entertainment media destination that puts the fans first.

https://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20160125/325484

Aspiring to provide fans with their one-stop-shop for today's pop culture, Fandom will cover television shows, movies, video games and much more. As consumer behavior shifts and binge watching and marathon gaming becomes more common than not, the desire to immerse and engage in content discussions has grown, and intense fandom has blossomed around entertainment properties, such as Game of Thrones, The Walking Dead, and Call of Duty to name a few. Moreover, these fans are hungrier for information and entertainment more than ever before.

"When I started Wikia 10 years ago people were hungry for a platform to celebrate their passions," said Jimmy Wales, founder and Chairman of Wikia (and Wikipedia). "But even the casual fan is a bigger fan than they once were, and the volume and sharpness of their knowledge is evidence of this. These fans, yesterday's nerds, are being sought after more and more by the public and even brands, for their opinions, their analysis and perspective, as true subject matter experts."

At launch, Fandom's homepage will include original editorial from its vast team of experts, along with curated "best of the web" content streams, with a focus on curated social media posts, showcasing only the most relevant content. Available for both desktop and mobile web at launch, Fandom will also offer a variety of high impact and customized advertising formats, including branded entertainment and a new native ad placement for marketers looking to reach passionate audiences. A Fan Feed will be an endless feed of top stories for fans who can't get enough pop culture news. New Topic Cards pull in the most timely and relevant links on the fandoms of the moment. And, of course, fans will be able to easily navigate to trending Wikia fan communities and topics, to explore and learn about new things.

"What we have learned, is that previous to this, no media outlet has adequately served these fans, giving them a central place to find everything they want about a TV show, game, movie or fandom," said Craig Palmer, CEO of Wikia. "With Fandom, we are now a complete entertainment destination that appeals to every type of fan, from the casual TV viewer to the marathon gamer, and everything in between."

Fandom will also see the launch of a Fan Contributor program, where aspiring journalists and knowledgeable fans on Wikia will be engaged to cover specific topics from the fan perspective. This will include video and written reporting. Currently, Wikia has over 125,000 active fan contributors each month in its communities. This product will give many of them a much needed media platform to share their knowledge more broadly.

"The definition of a fan has evolved," added Wales. "It doesn't have the stigma that it once had. Now it's aspirational. People want to be the expert in the room on any given topic. Frankly, what we have seen change most since the earliest days of the web is the democratization of knowledge, and Fandom is the latest proof."

*According to Quantcast (https://www.quantcast.com/p-8bG6eLqkH6Avk)

About Wikia Inc.: 
Launched in 2006 by founder Jimmy Wales, Wikia Inc. is the home of Fandom and the largest entertainment fan site in the world. With more than 360,000 Wikia communities and a global audience of over 190 million monthly uniques, Wikia is the only complete destination for entertainment fans. Fandom.com

Meetings are more valuable and collaborative with Ricoh's latest 65-inch interactive flat panel display

Enterprises can manage information in real time with the touch of a finger, and save on travel time and costs through use of remote meeting features

MALVERN, Pa., Jan. 25, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Ricoh today introduced its latest solution for enterprises and organizations seeking new ways to add value and collaboration to meetings while reducing their need to travel. The new RICOH Interactive Whiteboard D6500 features a 65-inch HD TouchPanel display and a bevy of collaboration features that are ideal for larger meetings across multiple locations. Users can easily manage, mark up and share documents and other content during meetings whether using their finger, the optional pen, or the intuitive tablet app, enabling them to more quickly and effectively manage and transform dynamic content.

https://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20140718/128670

As the demand to get more done in meetings increases, Ricoh's new interactive flat panel display (IFPD) is a powerful tool to make meetings more productive. The RICOH D6500 expands Ricoh's product line, building on the collaboration features of the current RICOH D5510, and can host up to 400 attendees via 20 connected IFPDs and 20 connected devices - including laptops, tablets, and projectors. Using the RICOH IWB app for iPad, attendees can participate in a remote meeting session that is being held on the RICOH D6500, along with viewing, drawing, erasing, adding and switching pages of the remote display from an iPad. Its interactive LCD flat panel display supports HD resolution of up to 1,920 x 1,080 for more vivid, in-depth sharing of detailed content.

Users also have a choice of two models of the device. The RICOH D6500 TouchPanel can be used as a simple touch screen monitor displaying images from whichever AV device is connected and touch screen control is enabled via USB. The RICOH D6500 TouchPanel (Business Edition) is pre-configured with a controller that comes preloaded with Ricoh's versatile software for multi-touch finger control, document annotation, page drawing, remote collaboration, and information sharing and saving tools required by business customers.

"Meetings are a crucial part of the typical organization, yet are often unproductive due to limits on collaboration and sharing information," said John Brophy, Vice President, Product Marketing, Ricoh Americas Corporation. "Users of our latest interactive flat panel display can add a new, visual, more valuable dimension to their meetings by collaborating on ideas and sharing them seamlessly. These rich features not only unlock the power of information, but they can also save time spent traveling to attend meetings in person."

Additional features that support more productive meetings include:

    --  Additional value to meetings with seamlessly interactive collaboration:
        Finger/touch writing frees users from the need to write with a pen. For
        those instances where more precise handwriting is needed, such as
        architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) and pharmaceutical
        applications, the optional Pen Sensor Kit enables collaboration on the
        finer points.
    --  Collaboration without boundaries, and with more information retention:
        For meetings that need to be held across multiple locations, the IFPD
        allows content to be shared with more visual impact, between multiple
        locations via wired or wireless LAN.
    --  Secure information sharing: All documents shared via the RICOH D6500 can
        be password protected or stored offline to enhance document security.
    --  Flexibility in control and operation: The IFPD corresponds with Crestron
        systems and provides users with the ability to control operations from
        Crestron control. Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) enables
        access to the company's corporate email address book to simplify
        circulating documents created on the RICOH D6500. HDMI and DVI-D outputs
        support ease in sharing content from the device.
The RICOH Interactive Whiteboard D6500 is available now at a suggested retail price of $5,065 for the RICOH D6500 TouchPanel configuration without a controller and $7,585 for the RICOH D6500 TouchPanel (Business Edition) with controller.

Advanced Navigation Releases Kinematica GNSS/INS Post Processing Software

SYDNEY, Jan. 25, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Leading navigation systems developer Advanced Navigation has announced the release of their GNSS/INS post processing software Kinematica.

http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20160122/324961

Kinematica is easy to use GNSS/INS post processing software that allows users to process raw GNSS and inertial data after collection and achieve higher accuracy position, velocity and orientation than is possible in real time.

Kinematica has been released as free software with a time lock to the 1st August 2016.

The software supports kinematic GNSS positioning which provides a 200x increase in position accuracy over standard GNSS with 8mm position accuracy. Dual antenna GNSS heading processing is also supported.

Kinematica processes data in forwards and reverse six times which allows it to fill any satellite outages and ignore errors that would normally affect a real time solution.

Both loosely and tightly coupled GNSS/INS processing is supported and the software automatically switches between each mode depending upon the environment.

Kinematica currently supports all of Advanced Navigation's GNSS/INS products. Support for a wide range of third party systems is scheduled for the next update in July 2016.

Kinematica is targeted at surveying, scanning and aerial photography applications that need to squeeze the maximum performance out of their systems.

company rebranding reflects a new focus: providing enterprises with database security and
compliance in the cloud.

    The company is also pleased to announce the addition of Dan Dinnar as HexaTier's new
CEO. Dan joined the company in late 2015, bringing with him over 13 years of experience as
Vice President of Sales for CyberArk Software (NASDAQ: CYBR), where he helped lead the
company to an IPO. Dan replaced former CEO Amir Sadeh, who will continue to serve as
Chairman of HexaTier's board of members.

    HexaTier builds on the patented Database Reverse Proxy technology and market traction
of GreenSQL, which burst on the scene six years ago with groundbreaking database security
and compliance solutions for SMBs. HexaTier is pioneering an easily deployed cloud
solution for database security, finally removing the barrier for any enterprise to make
the move to the cloud with confidence.  With a sweeping security lineup, the company
offers the world's first unified database security platform that protects hosted databases
and DBaaS from both internal and external attacks, while ensuring compliance with
regulatory requirements.

    A recent Forrester survey
[http://sdtimes.com/forrester-cloud-market-is-entering-the-second-wave-of-adoption/2 ]
stated that most companies have not yet moved critical systems to the cloud. Some are
holding back due to the vulnerability of databases to hackers and cybercriminals.

    "In boardrooms around the world, discussions are taking place about how to best
leverage the benefits of the cloud without giving up security or compliance. This shift to
the cloud has intensified, and we believe that nearly all companies will have their data
in the cloud within the next three years," said Dan Dinnar, CEO, HexaTier. "As the first
and only company with a robust, patented, database security solution that helps users meet
regulatory requirements, HexaTier is pioneering a critical, safer environment for cloud
computing initiatives."

    In the coming weeks, HexaTier will be sharing news about improvement to its technology
platform and other market advances. For more information, visit

Nicholas Tse Joins Forces with Digital Domain to Create a "Greater China Hollywood"

HONG KONG, Jan. 25, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Digital Domain Holdings Limited (DDHL, the "Company" or "Digital Domain; SEHK stock code: 547), the parent company of Digital Domain 3.0 Group, announced on 25 January 2016 that the Company plans to acquire 85% equity interest in Lucrative Skill Holdings Limited, the parent company of Post Production Office Limited and its subsidiaries ("PO Group"), a group of companies established by an international celebrity Nicholas Tse in 2003.

By introducing the latest dynamic streaming technologies from Hollywood, the two companies will jointly tap into the media, entertainment and technology industry including visual special effects ("VFX"), computer graphics ("CG"), virtual reality ("VR"), 360 panorama video recording and virtual human in the Greater China region and develop Digital Domain's foothold in the region. Upon completion of the acquisition, Nicholas Tse will lead and bring Digital Domain to create a new "Hollywood" in the Greater China region. 

As a leader in the media, entertainment and technology industry worldwide, Digital Domain has made outstanding achievements across various areas including VFX, CG, VR, 360 panorama video recording and virtual human. Having been involved in the creation of VFX and CG for more than 250 movies including Titanic, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Iron Man 3, the Transformer series and Furious 7, the Company has put itself in a leading position in this sector as a nine-time Oscar winner and looks to expand its VR, 360 panorama video recording and virtual human businesses based on the solid foundation of its core operation.

In another illustration of the Company's dedication to achieving its goal, it had earlier acquired Immersive Ventures Inc., a Canadian and US based leading technology solution and hardware provider pioneering in 360 captures, dynamic streaming and interactive media technology. The proposed acquisition of PO Group is an important step taken by the Company to achieve its objectives. With PO Group's extensive network and valuable talents in the Greater China region, as well as Mr. Tse's leadership, Digital Domain intends to establish a leading position in the Greater China and Asia Pacific region.

VR's increasing popularity is evident with more and more renowned international technology companies engaging into the market. With its strong foothold as a leading content provider, DDHL is standing in a unique position to quickly establish itself as a global provider of VR content.

Once headquartered in Hong Kong and with regional offices in Beijing and Shanghai, PO Group is a leading post-production service provider founded by Nicholas Tse in 2003, which is principally engaged in the provision of post-production services for advertisements, drama movies, TV shows, music videos, internet and mobile application content, and visual effects of corporate events.

PO Group has set up a comprehensive VFX and CG production house in Beijing and Shanghai for large budget VFX-intensive movies. Its cutting-edge post-production technology has earned great acclamation across the advertising sector and helped PO Group build up a core client portfolio consisting of Apple Computer, HSBC, Standard Chartered Bank, Cheung Kong Holdings, Canon, Sony, Coca Cola, McDonald's, Mercedes Benz, BMW, Panasonic and other international brands and enterprises.

Digital Domain made this encouraging announcement in a ceremonious toasting event held at JW Marriott Hotel Hong Kong, where a showroom exhibiting top-notch products that feature VR technology as well as cinematographic VFX and CG technology was set up for tryout by journalists with the theme of "It's VeRy Big. It's VeRy Near". Many journalists used the event as an opportunity to ask a number of questions and test the latest technology for VR, VFX and CG.

"Both PO Group and Digital Domain seek perfection when it comes to VFX, CG and post production techniques, and we both have earned great recognition and reputation in the industry, and this is the reason that brings us together," said Mr. Seah Ang, Daniel, the executive director and chief executive officer of Digital Domain, during the event. "We think the extensive network and international client base as well as valuable talents that PO Group has established in the Greater China region is crucial for our plan to enter the Greater China market.

In the future, when we expand into the Greater China and Asia Pacific market, PO Group will be able to benefit from Digital Domain's Hollywood-standard technology and Digital Domain will be able to benefit from the extensive operation experience and local talents of PO Group in the Greater China region. This is definitely a win-win situation for PO Group and Digital Domain."

Mr. Nicholas Tse, the founder and chief executive officer of PO Group, said; "there are indeed ample business opportunities in the Greater China region, especially for the media, entertainment and technology businesses which have been very popular there in the recent years. Focusing on Hong Kong in its early years, PO Group has later set up regional offices in Beijing and Shanghai, and the expansion of our business by leaps and bounds can speak for itself.

With such a huge audience base, the demand for the film, TV, media and entertainment industry is keen in the Greater China region. After over a decade of relentless efforts, PO Group has already established a solid foundation both in Hong Kong and the Mainland China. In the future, PO Group will turn over a new leaf and continue to give full play to its capabilities in the media, entertainment and technology industry in the Greater China and Asia Pacific region."

Epson Introduces Updated Garment Creator Software for Award-Winning SureColor F2000 Direct-to-Garment Printer

Latest Software Offers Superior Image Quality for Black Garments

LONG BEACH, Calif., Jan. 25, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Epson today announced updates to its Garment Creator software for the award-winning SureColor(®) F2000 direct-to-garment (DTG) printer. The new enhanced software includes a "Use Garment Black" capability for reduced ink usage and an improved look and feel when printing on black garments.

http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20121130/LA21891LOGO

"Our goal when Epson first entered the DTG market in 2013 was to deliver superior print quality, reliability and ease-of-use, providing additional revenue opportunities for print shops of all sizes. The customer feedback and success of the SureColor F2000 to date has been phenomenal," said Larry Kaufman, product manager, Professional Imaging, Epson America, Inc. "Now with the addition of our updated Garment Creator software, we are fulfilling our highest priority requests and our customers will be able to achieve new levels of image quality, all the while cutting down on the ink costs associated with imaging in the very popular black garment segment."

The latest version of Garment Creator software, available for OS X(®) and Windows(®), automatically recognizes and knocks out black areas of an image file and leverages the black fabric of a garment. By simply selecting the new "Use Garment Black" preset, the complex task of trying to mask off these black areas of the image is now done automatically. The end result is reduced ink usage from the elimination of black ink over white ink imaging and a better looking and feeling garment.

Joto, a supplier of digital decorating solutions and supplies for the garment decoration industry, has been using the new Garment Creator software with impressive results. "We've been testing the updated Garment Creator software and it's amazing - it saves ink and cuts down on design time - making it a worthwhile upgrade to the already efficient and high-performance SureColor F2000," said Dickson Siu, Color Specialist, Joto.

About the SureColor F2000
Engineered by Epson from the ground up, the SureColor F2000 Series printers deliver industrial-level production, image quality and reliability. With the ability to print directly onto garments - t-shirts, sweatshirts, hoodies, tote bags, and more - ranging from 100 percent cotton to 50/50 cotton/synthetic fiber blends, the SureColor F2000 Series offers additional revenue opportunities for garment print shops of any size.

Availability
The new Garment Creator software will be available in late-Jan. as a free download from http://www.epson.com/support/f2000.

Xura Partners With SMS PASSCODE Making Multi-factor Authentication Simple and Secure for Users

WAKEFIELD, Massachusetts, January 25, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --

     Intelligent and adaptive mobile authentication ensures safety of data, networks and
  applications, providing a superior login experience for customers and remote workers 

    Today Xura [http://www.xura.com ], Inc. (NASDAQ: MESG), a leading provider of digital
communications services for enterprises, announced its strategic partnership with SMS
PASSCODE [http://www.smspasscode.com ], a technology leader in adaptive multi-factor
authentication. Xura complements SMS PASSCODE's authentication suite by providing reliable
and secure messaging connectivity world-wide, through carrier-grade communications.

    In today's world driven by mobile devices and digital services, companies increasingly
face the challenge of protecting both employees and consumers from fraud, while also
allowing them easy access to information, services and applications. At the same time, due
to the increase in major security breaches, users themselves are driving demand for
greater security measures to avoid personal data being compromised. Businesses are taking
heed by increasing the authentication methods available to their employees and customers,
but finding the balance of security vs cost, convenience and ease of use, is challenging,
and working environment trends such as BOYD (bring your own device) add further
complexities for enterprises.

    One-time passcodes sent to a mobile device, also known as two-factor authentication
(2FA or mobile Transaction Authentication Number - mTAN), are commonly used by financial
institutions to provide an extra layer of security alongside standard username and
password log-in. This is ideal for employee authentication, particularly for companies who
may have contractors, partners and employees where varying levels of additional
verification is required.

    Xura enriches SMS PASSCODE's adaptive, multi-factor authentication
[http://www.smspasscode.com/what-we-do/multi-factor-authentication ] suite for enterprises,
by providing secure carrier-grade, SMS and IP messaging delivery globally. Xura's IP
messaging technology powers signed and highly encrypted transmission of passcodes to the
recipient's mobile device via its secure app and storage facility, trustego
[https://forge.xura.com/products/trustego ], adding another layer to SMS PASSCODE's
authentication solution.

    With Xura's trustego platform, users can choose to receive encrypted PIN codes by IP
message (in-app notification) or by text message, protecting end-user data and helping
businesses realize additional security benefits. There is also the option of sending an
in-app (IP) message first, and if the message is not opened within a set time period, the
system will trigger a text message to be sent instead. The trustego app can be downloaded
from the app stores, but can also be white labelled and is available via an SDK.

    "Xura's and SMS PASSCODE's strategic partnership brings together the latest and most
accessible messaging technologies to provide an intelligent authentication service with
the greatest reach and convenience to users - via their mobile. This offers the best value,
along with the highest level of reliability and security, meaning data, networks,
websites and apps are protected. Collectively, we give users secure access and flexibility
to information they need, while ensuring increased productivity for an increasingly mobile
consumer and workforce," said Eric Bilange, EVP, Enterprise, Xura.  

    "When providing the best quality security solutions, we required a partner who
specialises in mobile support for enterprises and complies with the highest requirements
in coverage, availability, security and performance. Xura assists in enabling and securing
customer oriented processes with rich communication solutions," commented Claus Rosendal,
CTO at SMS PASSCODE. "By integrating Xura's technology with ours, we are in the position
to roll out a turn-key solution for strong authentication based on the latest security
advancements. We can also help replace cost-intensive, inflexible and less secure hardware
token installations and have a system up and running in a matter of hours."

    Ahead of Xura's attendance at Money20/20 Europe
[http://www.xura.com/media-hub/events/2016/money2020-europe ], Xura and SMS PASSCODE will
be co-hosting a webinar on 16th March, entitled "Simple and Secure: Multi-Factor
Authentication For Financial Services Webinar", to explore the cyber risks facing today's
financial services world, and solidify the importance of strong, secure authentication
methods. We will showcase the latest trends in 2FA and multi-factor authentication, and
discuss how using stronger authentication methods can help finance service providers
comply with regulatory requirements such as Sarbanes-Oxley, European Data Directives and
The Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council. To register for this webinar,
