Minna Life Launches Kickstarter Campaign to Bring kGoal Boost to Men

A Smart Kegel Training System to Boost Your Health Below the Belt

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 4, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Minna Life (http://www.minnalife.com), a company that creates products to improve sexual health and wellbeing, today announced the launch of their Kickstarter campaign for kGoal Boost (http://kck.st/1iDjdVk). kGoal Boost is a non-invasive interactive training system (device + app) designed to assist men in pelvic floor exercises.

https://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20151104/283944

Minna Life's Kickstarter campaign for kGoal, their interactive pelvic floor training system for women, received $267,000 in pre-orders within its six-week campaign. It was this overwhelming success that inspired the company to address the rarely discussed importance of Kegels for men and to innovate an easy-to-use exercise product for the underrepresented market.

"Pelvic floor exercises, or Kegels, are often associated with improving women's sexual health," explained Liz Miracle, MSPT, WCS, and Assistant Clinical Professor at UCSF. "What many don't know is the same pelvic floor muscle group also plays a huge role in men's sexual health. For men, regularly exercising pelvic floor muscles has the ability to improve a number of sexual health and performance areas, including orgasm quality and control, erection performance and sensation, supported bladder control and core strength."

kGoal Boost's innovation lies in its non-invasive yet engaging design. The product is shaped like a small bike seat that the user sits on. It then uses an air pillow sensor to detect and measure pelvic floor muscle contractions. Paired with its mobile app, the device provides proportional biofeedback (both tactile and visual) in real time and allows users to track exercise history, set goals and reminders, follow guided workouts and use a game option to make workouts more fun.

"We live in a society that has made sexual health a bit of an awkward subject, but we think that's crazy - it's a fundamental part of human happiness and when we ignore it, we're doing a disservice to ourselves, our bodies, our health and our partners," explained Jonathan Thomas, co-founder and COO of Minna Life. "That's why we're proud to have created a great product to help men improve a critical and overlooked part of their health."

Minna Life is expected to begin shipping units of kGoal Boost in Spring 2016. The app, compatible with iOS and Android, will be available for download from the Apple Store and Google Play. To learn more about Minna Life or to pre-order kGoal Boost, please visit (http://kck.st/1iDjdVk).

About Minna Life

Minna Life creates products that improve sexual health and wellbeing. The company's revolutionary air pillow sensing technology enables a first-of-its-kind tactile biofeedback experience that has been the recipient of coveted awards for product design excellence, including the IDEA and Spark Awards. Launched via Kickstarter, Minna Life's highly anticipated connected pelvic floor exerciser, kGoal, received $267,000 in pre-orders within its six-week campaign.

Players will be able to enjoy a fresh new challenge as they grow buds into blossoming flowers and create beautiful and colourful chain reactions. Every move can form rewarding ripple effects across this dynamic and ever changing game board.

https://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20151104/283896

Blossom Blast Saga sets players off on a beautiful new adventure as Blossom, a curious and adventurous bee, who loves to collect and grow unique flowers, embarks on a journey beyond her home to beautiful gardens in the sky where she can experience everything the world beyond has to offer. With each flower she blooms, she earns and collects nectar to power her journey further into this magical world.

Free to download on iOS and Google Android devices, players must help this busy little bee make the buds bloom and clear the flowerbeds before running out of moves. By linking three or more adjacent flowers of the same colour, players can create a chain which in turn helps clear the board. The more chains you make, the more flowers will bloom, setting off an epic chain reaction that boosts your score!

Blossom Blast Saga will keep the gameplay fresh with a variety of different missions that require creative and strategic thinking. Game modes such as 'Big Bud Mode' require players to explode all the big buds on the game board by linking the same colour flowers into it, while 'Collect the Flowers' mode challenges players to bloom a certain colour of flower in a sequence.

"Blossom Blast Saga is a charming but challenging new adventure and we're excited to add it to our ever growing portfolio of mobile games," said Simas Budrys, Lead Producer on Blossom Blast Saga at King. "The colourful graphics and beautiful gardens, paired with the linking gameplay mechanic on offer, provide a fun and picturesque world for players to enjoy."

Look Up, London. giffgaff Puts People in the Air

LONDON, November 4, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --

    London commuters this morning had to double take, as strange human-shaped flying
objects appeared across the London skyline. The activity celebrates mobile network
giffgaff's 'no-ties' approach to contracts and is timed to coincide with its recent ad
campaign, entitled 'hey you', in which people are seen to inexplicably fly and float in
the air.

    Drifting across iconic London landmarks such as the London Eye, Big Ben and Canary
Wharf, the human forms caused excited commuters to stop and look up at the sky, with many
recording the moment on their mobile phones.

    Created to amplify awareness of the TV ad, the activity perfectly encapsulates
giffgaff's sentiment of 'we won't tie you down' - a statement referring to the
award-winning company's shunning of restrictive mobile phone contracts for its customers.

    The most recent 'hey you' advert, which aired on October 16th, can be seen here:

Premier Vaporizer Brand PAX Announces Partnership with R&B Sensation The Weeknd

Limited edition The Weeknd PAX 2 launches in conjunction with kickoff of the musician's North American "The Madness" Fall Tour

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 4, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- PAX Labs, Inc., a leading vaporization company, announces the release of a limited edition PAX 2 vaporizer designed in partnership with Canadian singer-songwriter and Billboard chart-topper, The Weeknd. PAX Labs is an official co-sponsor of his North American "The Madness" Fall tour, which kicked off yesterday in Toronto.

It will be sold alongside the tour's merchandise at each concert and will be available for purchase in-store at select PAX boutique retail partners nationwide, as well as online on PAXvapor.com.

"As one of the most exciting and relevant musicians today, The Weeknd was the ideal artist for an exclusive PAX 2 device collaboration," said PAX Labs CMO Richard Mumby. "Abel has a distinct and discerning style, and he has provided a new and unexpected way for us to showcase our brand. We are always looking for new ways to connect with our customers and fans, so this was the perfect opportunity to bring together The Weeknd's style with our technology."

Premier Vaporizer Brand PAX Announces Partnership with R&B Sensation The Weeknd

Limited edition The Weeknd PAX 2 launches in conjunction with kickoff of the musician's North American "The Madness" Fall Tour

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 4, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- PAX Labs, Inc., a leading vaporization company, announces the release of a limited edition PAX 2 vaporizer designed in partnership with Canadian singer-songwriter and Billboard chart-topper, The Weeknd. PAX Labs is an official co-sponsor of his North American "The Madness" Fall tour, which kicked off yesterday in Toronto.

The Madness Tour Limited Edition PAX 2 (MSRP $324.99) features an exclusive black shell with signature artist branding, including an engraved "XO" logo, custom programming with a yellow LED light, and hidden features. It will be sold alongside the tour's merchandise at each concert and will be available for purchase in-store at select PAX boutique retail partners nationwide, as well as online on PAXvapor.com.

"As one of the most exciting and relevant musicians today, The Weeknd was the ideal artist for an exclusive PAX 2 device collaboration," said PAX Labs CMO Richard Mumby. "Abel has a distinct and discerning style, and he has provided a new and unexpected way for us to showcase our brand. We are always looking for new ways to connect with our customers and fans, so this was the perfect opportunity to bring together The Weeknd's style with our technology."

In addition to the release of the limited PAX 2 device, PAX will have a presence throughout the duration of the "The Madness" tour, including special backstage VIP activations and an in-store event with the star at Toronto's premier menswear boutique Nomad, celebrating an exclusive retail partnership. PAX's relationship with The Weeknd marks the latest step in the brand's embrace of forward-looking fashion and music culture, as well as in its well-regarded strategy to tap influential design and retail partners to position the tech-driven device maker as a luxury lifestyle brand. In the last year, PAX has partnered with fashion designer Richard Chai for New York Fashion Week: Men and with Opening Ceremony for their spring/summer 2016 fashion runway show, and has hosted a surprise after-party with Toro y Moi at the Outside Lands Music Festival.

"Music and fashion have always been a natural fit for PAX," Mumby explained. "Since our early days, these communities have been supporters of PAX, and they continue to be a significant means of expression for our fan-base."

    Smart devices are becoming ever more affordable. There's been talk for years of the
world becoming "mobile" but we're very close to that being a reality. Now, mobile devices
outnumber people and more people are choosing mobile over PC as their daily driver. The

customers hand, making it easy for them to manage their accounts on the go. It's been
designed and built with our customers at the forefront of our thinking Mihkel added.

    Tipping the Balance 

    Talk of there being a "tipping point", the point at which mobile becomes bigger than
desktop, has been going on for a while. Well, it's not coming, it's already happened. Not
only are there now more mobile users than desktop users globally, but more of those people
are turning to mobile as their primary (and only) device.

Mentor Graphics Announces New Version of Valor Process Preparation, Connecting Lean NPI Flow with Industry 4.0

WILSONVILLE, Ore., Nov. 4, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Mentor Graphics Corporation (NASDAQ: MENT) today announced the release of the latest version of the Valor® Process Preparation software, with a focus on addressing engineering requirements of Industry 4.0. The Mentor Graphics® solution provides "digital manufacturing mastery" that is the ability to orchestrate product allocation to multiple production configurations, as well as the ability to quickly and seamlessly transition products between them, bringing the flexibility that Industry 4.0 requires. This flexibility is achieved by consolidating the full product model and any number of related manufacturing process definitions into a single efficient container. The Valor® Process Preparation software applies advanced process simulation and automated machine library generation techniques to create complete "ready to go" machine programs, operational data and work instructions for processes such as SMT, assembly, test & inspection, and stencil creation. This ensures minimal changeover downtime and start-up risk when executing manufacturing changes.

http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20140317/AQ83812LOGO

This release of the Valor Process Preparation product includes enhanced support for rapid test programming, including the ability to intelligently link schematic, PCB layout and Bill of Materials (BOM) data. Simply selecting a track on the PCB layout immediately shows the node in the corresponding schematic diagram from design, and vice-versa. This ease of operation helps ensure the highest level of testability and the most rapid debug time when investigating test failures at shop-floor repair stations. In addition, this provides for the first time, a simple way to directly compare electrical component data between the schematic and the production BOM, ensuring correct output for test and SMT machines.

"We are very excited to experience the latest evolution of Valor Process Preparation through the v12.1 beta program," states Stefan Schnake, process support manufacturing engineering at Phoenix Contact, Germany. "This latest release, together with other existing elements, brings our PCB engineering processes into perfect alignment with our principles of Industry 4.0."

"Our customers see huge value in adopting our Lean NPI Flow to accelerate their design-through-manufacturing process driven by the need for extended engineering flexibility as demanded by Industry 4.0," stated Dan Hoz, General Manager of Mentor Graphics Valor Division. "With our latest release of the Valor Process Preparation software, we now offer customers a complete engineering solution that is ready for true Industry 4.0 driven operations that yield optimum machine and line utilization."

Fujitsu PRIMEFLEX vShape Extends Fast-Track Virtualization

SUNNYVALE, Calif., Nov. 4, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- News facts:

    --  FUJITSU Integrated System PRIMEFLEX® vShape(TM) 5.2 now includes latest
        technology for increased flexibility, including a new backup option
    --  Validation for Citrix® XenDesktop® Desktop Virtualization Software
    --  New version scales to 2400 Virtual Machines for larger scenarios such as
        required by IT service or cloud providers
http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20140618/119400

Fujitsu is widening access to quick and painless implementation of validated virtualized server and desktop infrastructures, with the popular FUJITSU Integrated System PRIMEFLEX vShape¹. New extensions to the well-established PRIMEFLEX vShape reference architecture include VMware® vSphere® 6.0 virtualization software, and a new backup concept based on the FUJITSU Storage ETERNUS® CS200c S2 Integrated Backup Appliance.

For customers interested in desktop virtualization, PRIMEFLEX vShape now offers free choice between two certified options: VMware Horizon® and Citrix® XenDesktop® Desktop Virtualization Software. For bigger implementations of server virtualization for large enterprises, IT services or cloud providers a new version is now available that can scale to 2400 Virtual Machines (VMs).

PRIMEFLEX vShape enables the consolidation of IT, which means businesses need less hardware and can make more efficient use of existing assets, reducing operational costs and efforts. To achieve this, the virtualization reference architecture offers a simple concept with highly scalable industry-standard components including storage, networking and virtualization software, all running on Fujitsu PRIMERGY servers. PRIMEFLEX vShape also provides the perfect foundation for private cloud. For reliability, peace-of-mind and to eliminate unnecessary risk, all these components are harmonized and validated as a single solution.

The newly-validated backup concept for vShape is based on the FUJITSU Storage ETERNUS CS200c S2 Integrated Backup Appliance which combines right-sized hardware, backup software and licenses into a complete backup solution enabling a fast and trouble-free setup of a comprehensive backup environment. While other vendors offer software separately, and require additional hardware and software for scenarios such as long-term data retention, all the required components are included in the ETERNUS CS200c purchase price. Deduplication technology and flexible licensing options also help meet customers' varying needs.

Bernhard Brandwitte, Vice President, Global Storage Business at Fujitsu says: "Effective organizations take a holistic approach to virtualization and cloud. When it comes to implementing virtual environments, the three key factors are performance, data availability and security. PRIMEFLEX vShape provides solutions for workload scaling from 25 up to 2400 VMs, with different options for server and desktop virtualization. Fujitsu's approach to delivering a business-centric infrastructure gives customers flexibility to best meet their unique business requirements. For example, our solutions have enabled several customers to realize objectives such as increasing system performance by 80 percent, achieving zero downtime, or lowering operating costs by 40 per cent."

Customer feedback for PRIMEFLEX vShape highlights how a cost-effective, simple-to-deploy and easy-to-manage IT architecture removes the headaches of self-configuration, with design, integration and testing already undertaken and validated by Fujitsu. Today larger businesses are also under pressure to 'do more with less'. So Fujitsu has now validated PRIMEFLEX vShape for large enterprises, enabling them also to benefit from this turnkey solution.

With hundreds of implementations around the world, many completed via the Fujitsu SELECT Expert reseller partners, organizations of all sizes are finding vShape to be an effective way of addressing future data growth and capacity requirements without limiting performance or functionality. Customers benefit from a simple and fast process combined with easy, risk-free handling - allowing them to spend less time on IT maintenance and administration, and more time focusing on their core business.

Customer praise for PRIMEFLEX vShape
"PRIMEFLEX vShape makes us more profitable as a company and we can pour that extra money back into the business to help us grow and develop future services. We also now have a single pane of glass through which we can manage the entire system. If there is a problem, there is only one number we need to call. That's given us 20 percent more time in the IT department because we no longer spend our days firefighting. And that time can be invested in the business in a more proactive, strategic fashion", says Dave Ruddle, Product Development Manager, Data Continuity Group (UK).

"Caplaser has been offering hosting services since the early 2000s. With Fujitsu, we have been able to professionalize our offers: we were able to size and calculate our architecture together. Our offer is based on the observation that companies have to repeatedly invest in increasingly costly information systems. Investing in the Fujitsu PRIMEFLEX vShape solution has allowed us to easily implement a virtualization infrastructure and provide our clients with only the resources they need, configure their information systems and only be billed for what they actually use. Thanks to this solution, we can offer a truly local service", according to Caplaser (France).

"I have a single pane of glass through which I can manage every aspect of the infrastructure and easily provision new resources. This central management console frees up my time to focus on more strategic business objectives. Even if we double in size over the next five years, this solution will still be able to deliver. That makes it a great investment. It's a robust, reliable, flexible and cost-effective solution that has transformed how we do business," says Umesh Chohan, IT Manager, Simmons Gainsford (UK).

"Fujitsu PRIMEFLEX vShape has given us a new level of confidence in our organization. It has allowed us to streamline what was a complex IT landscape and transform it into a hardware profile that can be used for many years to come. I can double my capacity overnight if necessary, giving our organization the ability to grow without spending more on IT. I can also deploy new applications and services instantly and without affecting the existing ecosystem. And in the event of failure, the system can be rebuilt in a matter of hours, while the resilient architecture takes over operation," says Peter Bradbury, Director of Finance, Ashgate Hospicecare (UK).

"Fujitsu PRIMEFLEX vShape is an all-inclusive package with no hidden extras that is easy to deploy and support and by far the most reliable and dependable part of our infrastructure. It runs like a clockwork and if we need to add more power under the hood, it is a simple task. If you look at our systems as a pyramid, PRIMEFLEX vShape is the bottom layer, underpinning everything, so it is vital it works 24/7," says Jonathan Challis, National Systems Administrator, Reserve Forces' & Cadets' Associations (UK).

Pricing and availability
FUJITSU Integrated System PRIMEFLEX vShape is available globally via Fujitsu and certified channel partners. Prices vary by region and configuration.

PRIMEFLEX vShape will be showcased at the Fujitsu Forum Munich taking place from November 18 and 19 at the ICM Munich. Admission is free for registered visitors. For more information visit http://www.fujitsu.com/global/microsites/fujitsu-forum-2015/.

Notes to editors

1 Previously known as FUJITSU vShape, this reference architecture has now become part of the Fujitsu PRIMEFLEX portfolio of Integrated Systems.

Wink STEM Robot From Plum Geek Helps Parents, Educators Introduce Kids to Wide World of Programming

PORTLAND, Ore., Nov. 4, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- An ongoing Kickstarter campaign for the Wink STEM robot rocketed past its funding goal of $6,000 in less than 7 hours. Ending on November 17, the campaign was awarded a coveted Kickstarter Staff Pick on its first day. At press time, backers had chipped in over $45,000 toward the campaign's success. Detailed information and images are available at http://files.plumgeek.com/media/wink_media_kit.pdf.

https://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20151103/283610

"We've been designing robots together as a family for the past year," explains Plum Geek's Founder Kevin King, "and it's been an incredible experience. But none of this would be possible without the strong support of the Kickstarter community."

Wink STEM robot helps kids graduate from graphical programming tools like Scratch to actual written code. Small but dynamic, the robot is capable of a wide variety of simple tasks, including line following, light seeking and barrier detection. Combining these tasks together enables free roaming activities such as maze navigation. Wink's hardware empowers users to be creative; once the basics of code are well understood, the possibilities are almost endless. Above all, the designers intended Wink to be fun for everyone. 

At the heart of Wink's Arduino UNO based circuit board is an 8-bit processor. Code is written in the free, open-source Arduino environment. Wink features two surprisingly fast motors that can go backwards and forward independent of each other. Two RGB eyes can produce any color at any brightness. Three ambient light sensors can detect and follow illumination in front of the robot. In addition, an IR light under Wink's "nose" helps the robot see and avoid barriers. An onboard rechargeable battery provides hours of fun and discovery.

Accompanying the Wink STEM robot is a free and open curriculum of lesson plans, progressing from basic functionality to complex and creative tasks that leverage the device's full potential. Kickstarter funds will enable the Plum Geek team to complete about 20 lessons, along with companion videos for each one.

"Wink is perfect for classrooms, after school programs, STEM clubs, workshops and maker/hacker space events," added King. "Plus, instructors aren't required to understand code to use our lesson plans."

King and his team have already ordered the hardware necessary to manufacture at least 200 Wink robots - meaning early backers in the U.S. will likely receive their robots before Christmas. The remaining Kickstarter backer units will ship through January of next year.

About Plum Geek

The team behind Plum Geek has been designing and manufacturing electronics and radio systems for other industries for over six years. We're a group of fun loving people who love to hack, tinker and make. We've wanted to begin designing and manufacturing open source hardware for a long time. With your help, our robotics projects will become a huge success! Thank you!

PHOENIX, Nov. 4, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Bollente Companies, Inc. (OTCQB: BOLC) today announced the formation of Bollente International, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary, as part of an international manufacturing and sales expansion for its trutankless line of electric tankless water heaters.

http://photos.prnasia.com/prnvar/20151104/8521507452

Bollente International has partnered with an international manufacturing firm to increase production and efficiently handle distribution to customers in the United Kingdom and throughout Europe, Asia, Dubai, Australia and New Zealand. Trutankless has begun the testing and certification process for several international standards, demonstrating that the product complies with the essential requirements of European health, safety and environmental protection legislation and opening the gate for future sales to more than 30 European countries.

"Since launching trutankless in 2014, we have seen tremendous interest from the international market for our product," said Michael Stebbins, president of trutankless. "We are now ready and excited to offer an unrivaled electric tankless water heating solution on a global scale."

According to a new study by Grand View Research, the global electric water heater market will grow from $16.68 billion to $29.32 billion by 2022, and an increasing demand for tankless water heating solutions is expected to augment that growth.

"The Vining Group is delighted to partner up with such an innovative company as trutankless," said Sheridan Vining, director of Vining Group, a New Zealand-based distribution company "We see their products as absolute game changers and are incredibly excited about bringing this remarkable brand to market down under. With the demands on hot water and the advancement of smart home technology, Trutankless has created the ultimate solution." He continued, "Vining Group prides itself on bringing industry leading products to consumers nationwide, and trutankless will be available at leading plumbing merchants throughout the country from early 2016."

"Simply put, tankless is the future of the water heating industry," said Jeff Doss, CEO of Hotwire Development, LLC, a Scottsdale-based product development firm. "The demand for home automation and energy efficiency is paving the way for a technologically superior product like trutankless to capture a significant portion of the market. With international manufacturing capabilities, Bollente is positioned to meet this demand with ease."

Multi-award winning trutankless earned silver in this year's Appliance Design Excellence in Design contest, was selected as a 2015 "Money Saving Product" by BUILDINGS magazine, received a Special Mention in the 2015 Architizer A+ Awards and was named a 2015 Hot Product by the editors of Green Builder Magazine. In 2014 trutankless took home the NAHB International Builders Show "Best Home Technology Product" award and the Governor's Award of Merit for Energy and Technology Innovation at Arizona Forward's Environmental Excellence Awards.

About trutankless:
Hot water. Perfected. Packed with patent-pending proprietary technology, trutankless is engineered to outperform and outlast both its tank and tankless predecessors in energy efficiency, output, and durability. Not only does it provide endless hot water on demand for an entire household, it also integrates with home automation systems and has its own online control panel, allowing homeowners to control water temperature to within one degree, obtain service notifications, and monitor usage from their computer or mobile devices. Because hot water is such an intimate and essential part of daily life, this is a highly meaningful new "Internet of Things" player in the arena of smart home tech.

About the Company:
Founded in 2010, trutankless, a division of Bollente Companies, Inc. (OTCQB: BOLC), was brought to life through the combined insight, ingenuity, and drive of industry professionals, engineers, and entrepreneurs. The objective was to create a line of electric tankless water heaters that far surpasses traditional tank water heaters in energy efficiency, output, dependability and environmental sustainability while overcoming the frustrating drawbacks of other tankless units on the market today.

The trutankless mission is to efficiently provide hot water on demand by combining smart engineering with forward-thinking technologies that save owners money, energy, and space. For more information, please visit http://www.trutankless.com or call 855-TO-BUY-TRU.

"Incoming Call: Fido"

New PetChatz® HD's PawCall(TM) Accessory Will Enable Pets to Call Parents for Two-Way Video Chat

MINNEAPOLIS, Nov. 4, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Has your pet called you lately? Your dog or cat will soon be able to do just that with the forthcoming launch of the PetChatz® HD PawCall(TM) accessory, a landmark technology that lets pets initiate two-way video chats with the press of a button placed on your household's floor.

PawCall is a shiny, durable, pet-safe 3" x 4" button pet parents can place on the floor or wall anywhere in their homes near their PetChatz HD system.

PawCall will connect with PetChatz HD, a new, updated version of our previously released PetChatz "Greet & Treat®" videophone allowing pet parents to connect with their pets from anywhere, anytime through their smartphones, tablets or computers.

PetChatz HD enables parents to call their pets for two-way video + treats

The patented, award-winning PetChatz HD unit is a sleek, high-tech, pet-safe system that mounts to any wall or kennel and lets owners call their pets to see each other, hear each other and speak to each other.

By clicking an icon within the PetChatz app, parents can dispense a treat, provide a soothing scent and receive sound and motion detection alerts of their pet's shenanigans. PetChatz HD also features an HD, low-light camera and a high quality audio system. It is an updated version of the original PetChatz 1.0, which launched Nov. 2014.

Optional PawCall accessory lets pets call their parents

The PawCall accessory - which can be purchased separately and connects seamlessly via Bluetooth to PetChatz HD - will in turn let pets call their parents. When pet parents want their pets to know they can call them, they schedule call times in the PetChatz web app, which causes the paw-shaped light on the PawCall button to blink. Pets can then press the PawCall button to place a call to their parents.

The PetChatz HD system features pet trainer-developed instructions to help parents easily train their pets to respond to PetChatz HD calls, and learn to place calls with the PawCall button.

To see a video demonstration of PetChatz HD and PawCall in action, check out this video.

PetChatz HD and the PawCall accessory are sold separately and are available for pre-order starting today at PetChatz.com. Estimated delivery for PetChatz HD is January 2016. Estimated delivery of PawCall is February 2016. PetChatz HD MSRP is $379.99. PawCall MSRP is $99.99.

Individuals can still purchase the original PetChatz 1.0 - which is not compatible with PawCall - for $299 at PetChatz.com while supplies last.

EHang Launches Ghost 2.0 Drone with VR Goggles

Intuitive Piloting and Navigation Brings Drones to the Mainstream Consumer

SAN JOSE, Calif., Nov. 4, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- EHang, a leading UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) technology company, today released the newest version of its popular drone, The Ghost 2.0. The Ghost drone, which will be available for direct purchase via the EHang website, for pre-order on Amazon, and soon at Fry's and Hobbico stores, marks a significant step forward in making drone flight an accessible reality for everyday consumers. By marrying approachability with top-line design and engineering, the Ghost 2.0 makes drones a fun and natural way to take to the skies.

http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20151104/283701

The new drone includes several major new features, including:

    --  Tilt Control - The Ghost 2.0's proprietary Tilt Control enables
        consumers to steer with their phone instead of complex RCA controls or
        the challenging maneuverability of "point and tap" app navigation. Drone
        pilots operate the drone through EHang's mobile app, which is compatible
        with both Apple and Android devices.
    --  VR Goggles - To create a truly immersive flight experience, the goggles
        let users see directly out of the "eyes" of the drone in real time,
        allowing pilots to take flight in the "cockpit" of the Ghost 2.0. When
        combined with Tilt Control, users have precise control the drone without
        the bulk of additional hardware thanks to the goggles' built-in
        sensitivity to movement: when you turn your head, the camera turns as
        well.
    --  Seamless filming - The Ghost's app integration enables its user to
        control both the drone and its camera simultaneously, removing the
        hassle of managing both the gimbal and drone separately by two people.
    --  New, streamlined design - The Ghost 2.0's interior specs marry
        approachability with top-line design and engineering, making it a
        must-have for first-time fliers and drone enthusiasts alike.
    --  Full-year replacement policy - The Ghost 2.0 was designed with safety
        and durability in mind. But when accidents happen, EHang's 12-month
        warranty guarantee ensures consumers will be back in the air as quickly
        as possible.
"With our first two iterations of the Ghost Drone, we were able to build a strong foundation of both engineering and fans to help shape our vision for the Ghost 2.0," said Derrick Xiong, co-founder and CMO of EHang. "Our mission from the beginning has been to bring drones to everyone, and this brings us closer to that reality. We're just scratching the surface of what drones can do and will continue pushing the envelope and innovating to fully deliver on our vision."

Xiong went on to explain that Ghost Drone 2.0 also opens up the world of aerial filming to fliers of all levels. "With the combination of avatar tilt mode and EHang Virtual Reality Goggle, even amateurs can master advanced aerial filming techniques," he said. "That's because you can use your intuition instead of learning to use a complicated RC transmitter. 2.0 also makes it possible for one person to act as both pilot and cameraman -- a cutting-edge move for the market."

The Ghost 2.0 will initially be sold on the EHang site, available for pre-order on Amazon, and will soon hit the shelves at Fry's and Hobbico stores. The company will offer a $100 discount to the first 100 customers to buy the new version, and will also roll out a trade-up program for owners of the first Ghost drone.

Samsung and the World Surf League Make History by Producing the First Worldwide Surfing Virtual Reality Transmission

After Gabriel Medina and CJ Hobgood videos, the partnership between Samsung and WSL continues to create content in virtual reality, putting the fans in the middle of the action.

PENICHE, Portugal, Nov. 3, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- On Saturday, 24 October, surf enthusiasts from all over the world had the opportunity to go to Portugal's Supertubos Beach, to experience the Moche Rip Curl Pro, without leaving the comfort of home. The first worldwide virtual reality live multi-camera broadcast of a surfing event was made possible through a partnership between Samsung and WSL.  The content was produced in conjunction with IM360, which is powered by Immersive Media® technology.

To be right in the middle of the action you only needed a Samsung Galaxy S6 or Galaxy S6 edge and a Samsung Gear VR. As a result, fans who lived thousands of miles from the event were able to experience all of the excitement of a Championship Tour event, watching the world's best surfers compete in rapidly changing conditions that eliminated some of today's top surfers.   

"We believe this is the future of entertainment. This is the second time in just two months that Samsung Portugal promoted a multi-camera virtual reality live broadcast. First, we broadcasted the strongest football game in Portugal, the game between F.C.Porto and S.L.Benfica and now we brought surf fans - regardless of where they live -- onto the beach at Supertubos," said Frederico Paiva, Business Director of Samsung Portugal. "With this breakthrough technology and our most recent activation with the WSL, we are able to expose more people to the wonders of the sport of surfing."

"The World Surf League is so excited to have Samsung as its global Championship Tour partner.  Together, we've been able to develop innovative ways to introduce new fans to professional surfing and bring our current fans closer to our athletes and the competition," said Chris Culbertson, VP of Marketing, of the World Surf League.  "During the Moche Rip Curl Portugal Pro, live VR cameras were strategically placed to provide fans with a behind-the-scenes, 360-degree-view of the athletes' journey from the locker room to the beach.  We're honored to partner with Samsung to produce the first ever live VR surfing experience."

"IM360 is proud to partner with such forward-thinking organizations such as the WSL and Samsung to advance the immersive experiences, being the vehicle bridging the worlds of sports, entertainment, and virtual reality," said Myles McGovern, President and CEO of IM360.

The 2015 Samsung Galaxy WSL World Championship Tour wrapped up the European leg of the schedule on Friday at the Moche Rip Curl Pro, where Samsung hosted on-site activations at the Samsung Galaxy Studio. Within the Studio, fans were able to "ride the waves," thanks to the combination of the Gear VR a moving surfboard. Attendees also had a chance to try out Samsung's latest mobile products, such as the Galaxy S6 edge + and Gear S2. Also, with augmented reality activation, everyone had the chance take a picture with World Champion Gabriel Medina in addition to the trophy that was awarded to the 2015 Moche Rip Curl Pro winner, Brazil's Filipe Toledo.

Samsung is committed to honor the athleticism, adventure and unique culture of this passionate sport by providing exclusive experiences to all surfing community and enthusiasts. The virtual reality live broadcast enabled fans to extend their passion for the sport and feel closely all emotions of the competition.

Revolutionary app allows users to capture and 3D print spherical panoramas

Scandy brings the Scandy Sphere to Kickstarter allowing users to capture panoramas and order full-color 3D prints

NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 3, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- For the first time ever, users can 3D print spherical panoramas. Until now, 360-degree panoramas have lived in digital purgatory and on virtual reality headsets. Scandy brings those digital 360-degree panoramas out of the digital world and into reality with the Scandy Sphere. 

Scandy unveiled the Scandy Sphere to Kickstarter on October 27th, and is over 25% funded. Scandy users capture spherical panoramas with the Scandy app or import pre-existing panoramas, and order full-color 3D printed Scandy Spheres. The Scandy 1.0 will be live in Winter 2015 for both iOS and Android.

"Until now, creating 3D content has been hard," says Scandy founder Charles Carriere. "Our mission at Scandy is to change that. We want everyone to be able to scan their world in 3D and order beautiful 3D-printed content."

"Scandy has been a labor of love," adds Scandy President and CTO, Cole Wiley. "We launched the first Scandy app in March of 2015 and have come a long way. Gone are the days when users need expensive hardware to scan in 3D. Scandy 1.0 works with any phone."

Veteran Computer Designers Develop Unique Cyber Security Solution

Team Creates the World's First Software-Defined Secure Computer

WALTHAM, Mass., Nov. 3, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Virtual Software Systems (VS2) has banded together a team of computer systems veterans to create a unique technology designed to halt cyber attacks. Called xRA(TM), for eXploit Resilient Architecture and pronounced "X-Ray", the patent-pending, software-based solution detects and rejects exploits without the need for prior knowledge of breach signatures. It creates a secure system that ensures an application will only do what it is supposed to do, no more no less, and in the process prevents all forms of data theft or corruption. xRA runs on virtually any computer platform, from cloud and data center servers to micro-chips for the Internet of Things (IoT). It can be embedded in dedicated devices and is Microsoft Windows and Linux compatible. Currently under evaluation by a Fortune 100 IT services firm for enterprise use, a major aerospace contractor for Internet of Things (IoT) applications, and by the US Government, the technology is targeted for broad deployment in Q1 2016.

https://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20151103/283298LOGO

"VS2 has devised a truly remarkable innovation, essentially the world's first software-defined secure computer (SDSC(TM)), with the potential to level the playing field with hackers, nation states, and other cyber threats wreaking havoc on the global economy," said Eric Marks, President and CEO of AgilePath Corporation, and an expert on Cloud Computing. "While many organizations, including government agencies, are exploring ways to rebuild computing architectures to make them safer, many of these projects remain in the research stage. xRA stands out as the first real practical offering in this movement."

xRA embodies four decades of computer design experience by engineers who developed some of the foundational technologies in the computer industry. Their pedigrees include MIT, Harvard, Digital Equipment Corporation, Cisco, EDS and IBM. Inspired by chemical and biological models, the solution is an elegantly designed microkernel that fuses with the underlying hardware and software resources of the host computer. The SDSC is presented as a secured composite container fully compatible with the underlying platform. For hosted applications it provides active data file protection, fault tolerant operation, exploit prevention, real-time sandboxing, continuous processing and extensive forensics while continuing to deliver the compute power and system services of the underlying platform.

A Systems Approach Differentiates

"While developing xRA, as systems scientists and engineers, we were not constrained by traditional cyber security thinking on how to keep exploits out of a computer," explains Richard Fiorentino, Chief Technology Officer and co-founder. "We decided to attack the problem not in the network perimeter but within the host, i.e. the computer itself, because that is where malicious code or insider malfeasance reveals its true intent. The final result somewhat surprised us as we ended up removing vulnerabilities from both the underlying hardware and from the operating system rather than just adding complex protection features." Fiorentino continues, "Even better, our team was able to create the xRA solution with a very small code footprint. Thus, xRA can be used efficiently with large enterprise applications as well as in microservice architectures, custom appliances and secure IoT end-point applications."

The systems approach allows xRA to:

    --  Provide true zero-day protection by rejecting exploit attempts without
        analytic overhead or prior knowledge of previous attacks
    --  Reduce the attack surface to a single thread while increasing the
        protection surface beyond the underlying platform
    --  Ensure that no in-flight data transactions are lost due to hardware
        failures or exploit removal
    --  Combine multiple xRA SDSCs across independent, power-isolated hardware
        platforms to create a monolithic, security-enhanced, fault tolerant
        system for applications that require continuous processing with better
        than 99.9999% availability (less than 1 minute of downtime per year)
Designed for Flexibility

xRA's comprehensive architectural framework operates seamlessly with existing defensive and analytical cyber security solutions and with the installed base of legacy hardware and software.

VS2 plans to release three versions of xRA, each optimized for a specific market:

    --  xRA-Enterprise(TM); for enterprise or cloud-based application developers
        (Feature-rich and offering a server-based SDSC run-time processor)
    --  xRA-ES(TM); for embedded system developers
    --  xRA-IoT(TM); for Internet of Things systems developers
"The unique effectiveness and breadth of applications for xRA(TM) make it an ideal addition to any cyber security solution," says John Conway, VS2 CEO and co-founder. John adds, "Most importantly, xRA forms a secure computer environment while cost-effectively maintaining and enhancing existing investments in IT infrastructure, applications, training, and support. It transforms existing systems into secure systems via a simple injection of software."
