ROAM Introduces New ROPES(TM) Earphones Dedicated to the Art of Sound

ROAM ROPES Provide a Personalized, Customizable Listening Experience Offering Superior Sound, Sleek Style and Freedom of Movement

SAN FRANCISCO, April 11, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Musicians pour their hearts and souls into creating an emotional experience for their fans. Their music is painstakingly curated through countless hours in the studio with highly skilled engineers and producers. In a world where we consume their music non-stop and on-the-go, the technological convenience of portable headphones has degraded sound fidelity and sacrificed the musical intentions of the recording artist. Today, ROAM has introduced ROPES((TM) )- the first wearable, Bluetooth earphones specifically developed to enable users to enjoy the artist's sound as it was originally intended.

https://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20160408/353365

ROAM founder Steven Lamar, who helped create the initial concept and original design for the Beats by Dre headphone line, is committed to revolutionizing the audio experience.

"Sound is a musician's art form, and today's headphones are only allowing the listener to hear music one way," said ROAM founder Steven Lamar. "We value the art of music and the unique talent it takes to create it, so we've developed a premium, mobile audio platform and accompanying device to reproduce sound that is true to the artist's intention."

ROAM ROPES are wireless and Bluetooth-enabled, featuring an audio equalizer that can be personalized using the ROAM mobile app - ROAM EQ - freeing users from a "one sound fits all" listening experience.  By allowing users to adjust the audio frequencies in their ROPES, ROAM EQ empowers listeners to customize their own sound based on the type of music they listen to and how they want to enjoy it. ROAM EQ also provides pre-sets for various music genres, offering a fast, convenient path to audio customization.

For many listeners, an artist's studio rendition is the ultimate listening experience, and ROAM is partnering with both new and established artists to create a unique collection of ROAM Sound Signatures(TM). Available in summer 2016, ROAM users will be able to download from a library of artist Sound Signatures directly to their ROAM EQ app, connecting them to the artist and their recordings in a groundbreaking new way for the music industry.

Beyond its mission to provide the finest and truest sound fidelity for music, ROAM is also committed to delivering a safer way to stay connected.  Inspired by the tragic loss of his wife to brain cancer, Lamar utilized his many years in the audio industry to develop ROPES as a convenient, wearable technology that improves the safety and accessibility of mobile devices.

ROAM continues its support of Stand Up To Cancer (SU2C), a program of the Entertainment Industry Foundation. Stand Up To Cancer is a 501(c)(3) organization that was created to accelerate the pace of cancer research to deliver new treatments to patients quickly and save lives. Through this special collaboration, ROAM will donate $100 to Stand Up To Cancer for each limited-edition set of orange ROPES sold through December 31, 2016, with a minimum guaranteed donation of $10,000.

Stylishly designed to be worn around your neck, ROAM ROPES provide an untethered, constant wireless connection with any Bluetooth-enabled device. ROPES are currently available in black, white and orange. A special red, white and blue limited edition of ROPES will be available this summer to celebrate the 2016 Olympic games.

MMC's Hydrogen-fueled Drone, the HyDrone 1800, Leads the Way into a New UAV Era

SHENZHEN, China, April 11, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Micro Multi Copters Aero Technology Co., Inc. (MMC), a world-class hardware developer for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), has launched the HyDrone 1800 (HyDrone), its ground-breaking hydrogen-fueled drone. HyDrone's alternative source of energy keeps it in the air for more than 4 hours, gives it a radius of up to 100km with a live video stream, and works in temperatures below -20 Celsius.

http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20160408/353041

HyDrone's 4-hour flight time and one minute charging time stand as the best long endurance solution yet. Hydrogen fuel solves all the shortcomings of a traditional LiPo battery. It is long-lived, unnecessary to recycle, harmless to the environment, functions in low temperatures, and provides 8 times longer flight time than a regular battery. The gas requires the constant presence of oxygen, but is not affected by low temperatures, thus expands the usage of drones into northern and southern latitudes. Transported at 13MPa, hydrogen gas is being compressed into the drone's tank at 30MPa. The tank, designed with composite carbon fiber material, has been successfully tested from a 200m drop. The UAV's shell is made of water/dust/fireproof carbon fiber, specially designed in MMC's R&D center, expanding the UAV's usage into not only in very cold, but also very hot areas.

At the launch, Mr. Lu, MMC's CEO, spoke of the actualization of alternative source of energy, hydrogen, and its drastic influence on the UAV industry. "MMC has started a new era of drone which will permanently change humanity." He further explained that because it is fueled by hydrogen, HyDrone is a suitable answer to current problems fighting crime and terrorism. Due to HyDrone's longevity and ability to reach distances of over 100km with constant video feed, Mr. Lu predicts significant improvement in current solutions, and even larger usage within the security, policing and inspection industries.

Apart from the press and the VIP end-users, numerous foreign and domestic subject matter experts presented analyses of the HyDrone 1800 and general UAV developments in China. Mr. Lu pointed out the importance of Shenzhen as the center of world's UAV industry and indicated that "Chinese-owned companies, with MMC on top, currently drive cutting edge trends in the UAV industry." Mr. Chen, MMC's CTO, also commented on the general importance of recent technological advancements in China and their influence on the world. He ended his presentation by delivering MMC's main focus in creating value for its clients -- resolving specific work scenarios and pushing the limits of the UAV industry.

About Micro Multi Copters Aero Technology (MMC)

MMC is a leading industrial UAV company that has been perfecting the way people utilize drones for more than six years. MMC's best-in-class solutions derive from more than 25% of its annual revenue invested in R&D.

GCell Launches World's First Indoor Solar Powered iBeacon

NEWPORT, Wales, April 11, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --

    GCell announces entry into the iBeacon hardware market with their G100 Indoor Solar
Beacon. The World's first energy harvesting iBeacon offers a renewable energy supply and a
100-millisecond advertising rate as default.

(Photo:
http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20160411/353484 )

    The G100 Indoor Solar Beacon is an enterprise grade iBeacon aimed at large-scale
deployments.  It has the longest lifespan.

    The number of beacons deployed Worldwide has exceeded six million, according to
proximity marketing directory http://www.Proxbook.com. The use of beacons throughout
airports, cinemas, hotels, retail stores and sports stadia allow the broadcasting of
Bluetooth signals that a smartphone can receive and understand. This makes it possible for
brands and venues to communicate with audiences at a precise location at the time of their
visit.

    Utilising their expertise in energy harvesting GCell plans to overcome one of the
major challenges constraining the mass adoption of iBeacon since Apple introduced the
technology in June 2013.

    Professor Michael Gratzel, recipient of the 2012 Albert Einstein World Award of
Science and the 2010 Millennium Technology Prize for inventing Dye Sensitised Cells,
 commented "I am delighted that GCell have introduced the World's first indoor solar
powered iBeacon. GCell continue to lead the way for the use of indoor photovoltaics. I
anticipate that this is the first of a series of indoor wireless beaconing and smart
sensor devices powered by a renewable energy source."

    Barry Jenkins from GCell remarked "We have been patiently watching the iBeacon
ecosystem to mature. We quickly recognised that battery-life is one of the biggest
challenges for iBeacon industry growth. Initially Beacon hardware vendors used small coin
cell batteries typically lasting less than a year. Each time a beacon requires a
replacement battery there is an associated service cost that adds to the total cost of
ownership."

    The G100 Indoor Solar Beacon uses a renewable energy source to enable broadcasting at
the Apple iBeacon standard of 100-milliseconds advertising rate for the life of the
product. The higher advertising rate allows application developers to target users and
navigate indoors more accurately.

    The introduction of the G100 Indoor Solar Beacon will see GCell partner with proximity
platform providers and indoor location service providers to benefit the enterprise, retail,
sports and leisure applications of iBeacon.

    Pre-orders for GCell Beacon Development Kits are being taken at the website
http://www.ibeacon.solar. Additional GCell Beacon products are set to be launched
later in 2016.

    About GCell 

    GCell is the brand leader in the design, manufacture and introduction of disruptive
technologies for use in portable consumer electronics, wireless sensing and autonomous
beaconing devices. GCell is making disposable batteries obsolete with the use of energy
harvesting, ultra-low power electronics and hybrid energy solutions. GCell's commitment to
innovation in autonomous ambient intelligence gives users the freedom to disconnect from
mains power and not be restricted by the limitations of batteries.

Dynamsoft's Barcode Reader SDK Adds PHP Support on Linux

Version 4.2 Linux PHP Support Adds to Windows PHP Offering to Quickly Enable Barcode Recognition in Web Applications

VANCOUVER, April 11, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Dynamsoft's Barcode Reader software development kit (SDK) now includes support for the Hypertext Preprocessor (PHP) language on Linux platforms so developers can easily enable barcode reading from images, scanned documents and webcam captures in a PHP application on Linux. This includes support of web applications in ASP.NET, in C# or VB.NET, and PHP on Windows or Linux.

The new PHP barcode reader toolkit for Linux supports PHP x64 version 5.3 to 5.6. Both Thread Safe (TS) and Non Thread Safe (NTS) options are provided. The Dynamsoft toolkit works with Linux Debian, Ubuntu, and CentOS operating systems.

The updated Barcode Reader 4.2 SDK has built-in support for a variety of the most common 1D and 2D barcode symbols. Dynamsoft continually updates the SDK to enhance features and capabilities. Over the past year, updates have added support for a variety of barcode symbology and support for reading barcodes from GIF, BMP, JPEG, PNG and TIFF images. The Barcode Reader SDK can be used as a standalone solution. It can also be used as an add-on to Dynamsoft's Dynamic Web TWAIN or Dynamic .NET TWAIN SDKs to enable barcode reading from document scanners or webcams. These SDKs allow full-featured TWAIN scanning and webcam image capture in a web or desktop application, respectively.

In addition to PHP, Dynamsoft's Barcode Reader 4.2 SDK provides .NET, ActiveX / COM, C, and C++ application programming interfaces (API).

"Adding support for Linux broadens the application options our customers have when using our barcode reader SDK and it's important for us to continue to ensure our customers have a myriad of options with Dynamsoft SDKs," said Amy Gu, Vice President of Dynamsoft.

Dynamsoft's Barcode Reader SDK allows application developers to almost instantly embed barcode decoding functionality into their web or desktop applications. It requires just a few lines of code instead of coding hundreds to more than a thousand lines from scratch. It saves months of development time. It also significantly reduces development costs and reduces long-term application support costs. It enables barcode recognition from image files, scanned images, and from images captured on webcams or smartphones.

Pricing and Availability
Dynamsoft's Barcode Reader 4.2 SDK is provided with rich code samples. It is backed by technical support channels that include an online knowledge base, email, chat, phone and more. It will be available for purchase and download from the Dynamsoft website starting April 12, 2016. Purchasing provides a developer license, a runtime license for desktop applications (Windows(®) and Mac(®) editions are available), and deployment license for web applications.

EA SPORTS, NFL Players Association And Discovery Education Bring STEAM Careers To Life In 'Magic Of Madden' Live Virtual Event At EA Gaming Studio; Washington Redskins' Kirk Cousins Joins For Live Q&A

--LIVE Virtual Field Trip at EA Tiburon Development Studio in Orlando Connects Middle School Students with Engineers, Animators, Designers, and More for Inside Look at STEAM Careers Powering Madden NFL--

--Florida Student Transformed by Motion Capture Technology into Madden NFL Animated Character--

SILVER SPRING, Md., April 8, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- EA SPORTS(TM), the NFL Players Association (NFLPA), and Discovery Education, the leading provider of digital content and professional development for K-12 classrooms, have teamed up to host an interactive live virtual field trip on Thursday, April 14, 2016, at 1:00 p.m. ET for students nationwide.  Featuring Washington Redskins quarterback, Kirk Cousins, The Magic of Madden Virtual Field Trip offers middle school students (grades 5-9) the unique opportunity to go behind-the-scenes at EA SPORTS Tiburon Studios in Orlando, FL., to explore the science, technology, engineering, art and math (STEAM) powering today's popular Madden NFL series. Register here.

https://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20160408/353149

Available at no cost, The Magic of Madden Virtual Field Trip will introduce students to EA SPORTS engineers, animators, designers, analysts and producers at one of the largest studios among Electronic Art's worldwide video game development facilities, as they discuss their career paths and applications of STEAM in bringing Madden NFL to life. Students will go on an exclusive studio tour, and get a firsthand look at motion capture - the process used to record movements of objects or people to animate digital character models - when EA SPORTS animators transform a student from Florida's Orange County Public Schools into a Madden NFL character! Additionally, Washington Redskins quarterback Kirk Cousins will join the virtual event to answer questions submitted by participating students.

Classrooms may register for the 45-minute virtual event, and submit questions ahead of time to be answered by Cousins and EA SPORTS experts. To register for the event, learn more about the Madden NFL: Football by the Numbers digital interactive and the free accompanying educator resources to help enhance the learning experience and make meaningful classroom connections, visit:  http://footballbythenumbers.discoveryeducation.com/.   

"I encourage educators to integrate this virtual field trip into their classroom instruction to engage students through interactive, digital content," said Dr. Jesus Jara, Deputy Superintendent at Florida's Orange County Public Schools. "This virtual event provides a unique opportunity for students to learn directly from creators of video games on the importance of STEAM, and make connections from their classroom to everyday life and real-world careers."

The Magic of Madden Virtual Field Trip is part of EA SPORTS, NFLPA and Discovery Education's EA SPORTSMadden NFL: Football by the Numbers program, a comprehensive educational initiative that taps into children's excitement about football and video games to ignite a passion for math and science. The program offers a first-of-its-kind digital learning game that teaches math and science concepts - such as angles, force, probability and velocity - using famous Madden NFL highlights. The digital game consists of interactive scenarios that are broken down into three sections: Explore, Learn and Game Play. In "Explore," students are introduced to football-related concepts, positions and strategies that relate to the game. Students then "Learn" about math and science concepts as they relate to various offensive and defensive strategies. Lastly, students apply learnings during "Game Play." 

"We can't wait to open our doors and show students our studio, introduce them to some of our experts, and open their eyes to what goes into making our video games," said Daryl Holt, VP and Head of Operations for EA Tiburon. "If this Virtual Field Trip encourages students to get more involved in STEAM in any way, then we will consider it a great success."

"The NFLPA is about connecting businesses with sports and the players themselves," said Ahmad Nassar, President of NFL Players Inc. "This successful partnership is a perfect example of thinking outside the box to connect education with NFL players. Students learn directly from players, not only through the Madden NFL: Football by the Numbers platform, but through interactions with players who bring the concepts to life."

"Discovery Education is thrilled to continue our partnership with EA SPORTS and NFLPA to offer an engaging learning opportunity that showcases the real-world relevance of STEAM to students' beloved pastimes - video games," said Lori McFarling, Senior Vice President, Discovery Education. "Through this virtual event, we hope to get students excited about the spectacular types of careers available to them with STEAM training, and encourage classrooms nationwide to join us for what is sure to be an extraordinary event."

Users can access DJI+ Discover via an iOS or Android app. The mobile app connects people socially and professionally by enabling drone-pilots and drone enthusiasts to start conversations and meet up while also functioning as a professional marketplace for aerial service providers and potential clients. Further, the app is a gateway to the broader DJI community, including an integrated version of the DJI Forum, the DJI online store, SkyPixel, upcoming DJI events and more.

"Drone pilots like to get together to fly, learn from each other and share experiences with like-minded people. In the same way, people want an easy way to find trustworthy professional aerial service providers nearby," said Paul Guo, Director of E-Commerce at DJI. "DJI+ Discover lets people in the same area connect socially and professionally in a way that will bind the drone community even tighter together."

The app is easy to use and divided into four sections: Nearby Search, Experience, Store and Forum. Users sign up by registering an email address. Their profile can be linked to an existing DJI account. The app is open to anyone - from those curious about the technology without any previous experience to professional service providers.

Nearby Search shows social and professional users nearby, as well as flying hotspots and geo-tagged photos from SkyPixel.

The Nearby Search section is separated for social and professional users. The platform offers social users a way to connect, chat and meet. In a similar way, professional users can introduce their offer and services and connect with new clients. Users of professional services can write reviews directly on service providers' profiles. 

The Experience section guides users to nearby stores, and official DJI events. Other interactive features will be posted in this section.

The Store section takes users directly to DJI's online store.

DJI's official Forum is directly integrated in the DJI+ Discover app, making it easier for people to discuss, share best practices and get tips directly through their mobile phone.

The app can be downloaded for free on this link. The app is currently available in the U.S., the UK, Germany, Spain and Australia.

Casio Expands Lineup Of CELVIANO Grand Hybrid Digital Pianos With New GP-400BK

The GP-400BK Features a New, Elegant Design, Wooden Keys, and Three Historic Grand Piano Sounds

DOVER, N.J., April 7, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Casio America, Inc., announced today that it will release the GP-400BK, the newest model in its CELVIANO Grand Hybrid lineup. The CELVIANO Grand Hybrid pianos combine the advantages of both digital and acoustic pianos, while delivering the performance of a grand piano in tone, keyboard quality and playing comfort.

https://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20160406/352239

Casio previously released two pianos in the CELVIANO Grand Hybrid lineup in 2015- the GP-500BP and GP-300BK - and both were equipped with the company's AiR Grand Sound Source and Grand Hammer Action keyboard. This keyboard is made with full-length wooden grand piano keys, using the same materials and processes as the C. Bechstein grand pianos. Casio's action mechanism sends a hammer along the same vertical path as a grand piano, with the same essential weighting and pivot points providing a faithful uncompromising feel. These models also featured piano tones jointly developed with the piano maker C. Bechstein.

The new GP-400BK comes with the three historically popular grand piano sounds featured in the GP-500BP and GP-300BK, as well as the same reliable key response and supple playing comfort. New with the GP-400BK is the design, which boasts a curved rear panel and thicker side panels and legs. The height from the keyboard to the music stand has also been made the same as a conventional grand piano, for an experience even more like that of playing a grand piano. In addition, Casio used a black wood grain finish for the entire piano to give it a dignified look. All of these design features come together in this latest elegant model in the CELVIANO Grand Hybrid lineup.

"The introduction of the GP-500BP and GP-300BK in 2015 brought fresh and innovative products to the market that moved beyond the realm of the conventional digital piano and gained a strong reputation among people who appreciate the nuanced sound and feel of a grand piano," said Stephen Schmidt, Vice President of Casio's Electronic Musical Instrument Division. "This year's launch of the GP-400BK further establishes Casio's commitment to the industry and will emphasize the same revolutionary features, while also incorporating a new design to capture the bold and refined image one expects of a high-quality piano."

Thoroughly refined sound and reverberation reminiscent of a grand piano

The AiR Grand Sound Source reproduces the same beautiful sound and rich reverberation as a grand piano. Multi-dimensional Morphing smoothly transforms sound waves, and realizes tonal changes based on both time passage and intensity. Even during a gradual crescendo from pianissimo to fortissimo, the technology allows even and natural tonal changes. Moreover, the String Resonance System, designed to deliver the string resonance of a grand piano, controls the amount and combination of resonance according to the playing situation. By producing reverberation that fits each of the 88 keys, the technology enables natural and comfortable performance. Moreover, Damper Resonance, Lid Simulation and Key Release Simulation further the experience. By combining these technologies, the GP-400 offers the sounds of three grand piano styles - the Berlin Grand which is known for its elegant, clear sound and reverberation that gives each performance rich melodic color; the Hamburg Grand which delivers gorgeous power and strength with a lot of string resonance; and the Vienna Grand which provides calm bass with a solid feeling along with soft and beautiful sound.

Casio's Natural Grand Hammer Action Keyboard enables even more delicate expression as the GP-400BK's keys are finished in the same way as a grand piano's. The high-quality spruce makes it more familiar to the pianist ensuring fingers are less likely to slip or fatigue. The new model also boasts a new unique action mechanism that delivers the right hammer movement, which has a big impact on the playing response of a grand piano. The mechanism conveys delicate finger nuances more accurately, and enables dynamic touch to translate directly into expressive power.

Casio has developed a Grand Acoustic System that generates a space of three-dimensional sound and faithfully represents the sound of a grand piano as it emanates from above and below the soundboard. Through careful positioning of six speakers and the creation of sound pathways, the system delivers three-dimensional sound with tonal elongation, expansion and depth.

Special playing experiences made possible by a digital piano

The Scene feature enables pieces to be played with the optimal sound as it consists of 15 preset types for different composers such as Chopin and Liszt, as well as musical genres such as jazz and easy listening. The presets combine the best optimal tones, reverberation, and effects for the type of piece being played. Users can also create and save their own presets.

The Concert Play feature allows users to feel like they are accompanied by an orchestra as it is recorded in a high-quality digital format. By playing the piano together with the recorded orchestra, users can enjoy the feeling of performing at an orchestral concert. The technology can also be used in practice, as it allows the tempo to be slowed, and also features rewind, fast forward, and repeat playback of A-B sections.

The Hall Simulator allows the pianist to enjoy the immersive sound found in different types of venues such as an Amsterdam church, or a classical concert hall in Berlin. Also, the GP-400BK enables users to switch between the Player's Position, which provides a sense of playing a real grand piano, and three types of Listener's Positions, that offer the pianist the effect of listening to the performance from the audience.

The GP-400BK will be available in July at select music dealers nationwide for a MSRP of $5,999.00. To learn more about Casio's Grand Hybrid pianos and full portfolio of electronic musical instruments, please visit http://www.CasioMusicGear.com.

HelpTheCrowd Equity Crowdfunding Analytics Tool Press Release

AMSTERDAM, April 7, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --

    HelpTheCrowd offers invaluable insights into European crowdfunding opportunities with
new Equity Crowdfunding Analytics tool 

    HelpTheCrowd, the Amsterdam-based Crowdfunding comparison platform, today brings
professional-level transparency to the European equity crowdfunding market with the launch
of its new Equity Crowdfunding Analytics tool. Subscribers can use the tool to analyse and
compare investment opportunities in the previously fragmented and confusing European
equity crowdfunding market.

    Jaap Dekter, HelpTheCrowd Founder & CEO and former investment banker explains: "We
want to take the best traditional investor services and make them available for the
crowdfunding universe. Our Equity Crowdfunding Analytics tool is the first step. This tool
helps investors by clearly showing what kinds of companies are raising money through
equity crowdfunding, and at what valuation. It also includes past deals, so investors can
see how much money similar companies have raised, or tried to raise."

    The HelpTheCrowd.com [http://helpthecrowd.com ] website already gives potential
investors free-to-access information about how much money a business is trying to raise
through crowdfunding. The Equity Crowdfunding Analytics tool takes things one step further,
giving subscribers a statistical overview of currently live deals and completed deals, as
well as access to the full database of completed deals.

    This allows investors to directly compare an investment opportunity with similar deals
from different European countries, platforms and sectors. They can see how its valuation
measures up against its peers, and also easily identify broader trends in crowdfunding and
early stage investing.  

    Dekter continues: "Now investors can tell at a glance whether an investment
opportunity is relatively cheap or expensive. This kind of information is widely available
in the world of traditional investments - HelpTheCrowd's new tool brings the same service
to the crowdfunding market, which is an important next step for the industry."

    HelpTheCrowd has built a comprehensive database that demystifies early stage
crowdfunding investment in Europe. HelpTheCrowd staff gathers and reads every pitch from
the leading crowdfunding platforms, then categorises and labels each pitch with the
appropriate sector and tag, before adding the required minimum funding amount and
valuation.

    Dekter again: "Giving investors a benchmark of average funding needs, and valuations
for different kinds of companies, helps them to ask better questions. If a particular
investment opportunity has a very different valuation from its peers, investors will know
what kind of extra information they should request from the entrepreneur, or what they
should do more research on."

    HelpTheCrowd was founded in 2015 and began gathering data in August of that year.
Investors can browse the free-to-use part of the HelpTheCrowd website and review leading
crowdfunding platforms from all over Europe, as well as the individual investment
opportunities on those platforms. The new subscription-based Equity Crowdfunding Analytics
tool gives investors clear, transparent information about the exciting investment avenues
that crowdfunding is opening up.

Longsys Announces New Line of PCIe SSD Products

SHENZHEN, China, April 7, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Shenzhen longsys Electronics Co., Ltd. ("longsys" or "the company"), the largest storage vendor in China, is launching a new line of PCle SSDs, the P800 series, which will be available in May at the same cost as SATA SSD.

The new P800 series, which adopts 15nm TLC NAND Flash and the Marvell control chip, boasts read-write speeds of up to 700MB/s and 300MB/s, respectively. Furthermore, its two forms and specifications, namely M.2 and AIC (Add in Card), provide capacity of 120GB and 240GB.

In this era of big data, individuals and enterprises have an increasing demand for data storage, and the demand for SSD is growing at a yearly rate of 20%. Longsys' new product line, along with its competitive pricing, will ensure that the company maintains its leadership positions in the data storage market.

The Irresistible Trend of PCle SSD

Compared with SATA, PCle has a higher transmission bandwidth and less access delay. The maximum theoretical transmission speed of SATAIII is 600MB/s and that of PCle Gen2 x1 is 500MB/s, with the maximum theoretical transmission speed of PCle Gen3 x1 reaching 1GB/s, twice of the interface speed of SATAIII. The theoretical speed of PCIe Gen3 x4 reaches 4GB/s at its highest.

Apple's Mac series notebook is already equipped with PCle SSD. Furthermore, the main chips in Intel's latest Skylake platform support a PCle NVMe channel. It is clear that the biggest hardware sellers and chipmakers are preparing for when PCle will take the place of SATA.

Better Price of PCIe vs. SATAIII to Drive Consumer Adoption

The high performance of PCle SSD is eye-catching, but the retail price of more than RMB 700 for current 128GB models has dampened consumer demand. Longsys' new P800 series, with its higher capacity, will be priced at the same level as SATA SSD. This cost advantage will enables consumers' to upgrade their notebooks from HDD to high performance PCle SSD.

Experience In Market & Deep Industry Relationships Guarantee Quality

Longsys is dedicated not only to making the price of its P800 PCle SSD competitive with the SATA SSD, but also to maintaining its high level of market-leading quality. Having been focused on the storage field for 17 years, longsys has established a sound cooperative relationship with its upstream factory, which gives it a stable and superior NAND Flash source, and lays the foundation for its lasting foothold in the market.

In 2015, for example, the company entered into strategic cooperation with international control chip manufacturer Marvell. Its 28nm technique is adopted for Marvell's control chips, giving it greater cost and technical advantages over the 55nm manufacturing techniques of Silicon Motion and Phison. Furthermore, Marvell has extended the low density parity efficacy of its LDPC technology to its SSD control chip, which has a correction capability that is three times higher than that of traditional BCH, better strengthening the durability and stability of TLC. This, along with the introduction of the DRAM-less framework, further optimizes SSD costs.

With these advantages, longsys can complete the firmware design, hardware design and packaging design independently on the basis of the control chip source code from Marvell, opening up the interface to enable clients to create more market value.

Finally, longsys has formed a complete production chain from research and development to finished products and boasts a wide range of quality SSD models including its S400 series, industrial I800 series and enterprise-level DC3200 series.

About Shenzhen longsys Electronics Co., Ltd.

Established in 1998, Shenzhen longsys Electronics Co., Ltd. (longsys) is a Chinese DMS company (Design, Module, Service) which focuses on NAND flash applications for software and hardware products, and globally-applicable innovative technology products.

15A and 20A POL Regulators Power Next Generation Servers

FREMONT, Calif., April 7, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Exar Corporation (NYSE: EXAR), a leading supplier of analog mixed-signal products serving the industrial, high-end consumer and infrastructure markets, introduced the XR76116 and XR76120, 15A and 20A point-of-load (POL) step-down buck switching regulators using the latest generation of Exar's patented emulated current mode constant on-time (COT) control.  This control loop provides the fast transient response required in demanding server applications while making implementation simple and easy.  Improved gate driver technology has reduced dead times to 10ns, resulting in improved efficiency across the entire operating range. 

The XR76116 and XR76120 extend the output current range of the PowerBlox(TM) line of Exar's high current POL regulators up to 20A.  The patented COT control loop enables operation with ceramic output capacitors without degradation in transient performance and eliminates loop compensation components, making a simpler and more reliable design. Additional features targeted at server applications include a power good pin which maintains a low impedance when the chip is unpowered thereby avoiding false power good signals.  Also, there is a second output voltage sense pin, ensuring any failure of the main feedback does not result on damaging voltages being applied to expensive low voltage digital circuitry.  These POLs have exceptional full range 0.1% load regulation and 1% output accuracy over the full -40°C to 125°C temperature range. A host of supervisory and protection features for proper sequencing, safe operation under abnormal operating conditions and light load operation is built in.

"The XR76116 and XR76120 POL regulators show Exar's commitment to its key customers and the server market," said Tuomas Hollman, Exar's vice president, power management products.  "These are the second set of power products Exar has developed for the server market. The Universal PMIC, XRP7725, was the first product also used in Skylake servers."

Specified over the full -40°C to 125°C temperature range, the XR76116 and XR76120 are offered in a 5mm x 6mm TQFN package. 1,000-piece pricing starts at $2.70 and $3.20 each, respectively.

HoloVit Introduces An App For Sharing Personalized Holograms

MIAMI, April 7, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- The tech company HoloVit is now live on Kickstarter to realize their new hologram-sharing app. This innovative app will allow users to share a personalized hologram video message on social media.

https://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20160406/352432

HoloVit has pioneered user-friendly hologram systems that bring the fun and excitement of futuristic technology into every home. Now, they are taking it a step further with this new app. Record a holographic video with their modular recording set, add a personal written message, and share it on WhatsApp, Instagram and Facebook. These personal hologram messages give users a unique way to communicate with family and friends.

Currently, HoloVit offers a recording set and holographic screens in three sizes for enjoying holograms from a smartphone or tablet, laptop or television. The realistic dimensional holograms appear nearly life-like. With the television-compatible screen, viewers get a full immersive experience, allowing holograms to float freely in the room at up to 8 times larger than other hologram systems. Additionally, viewers can enjoy 1,000 videos in holographic format and an exclusive hologram video game.

ABOUT HOLOVIT

Miami-based HoloVit is the brainchild of Jeff Deleon. He has been researching and perfecting holography systems since 2002. He developed his first system in 2006 and in 2008 he worked on a special technique for producing high-quality holograms for brightly-lit settings. In 2015, the company successfully developed and launched its first line of patent-pending holographic systems.
