7-inch TND(TM) Tablet from Rand McNally Now Available

The TND(TM) Tablet 70 follows last year's larger truck tablet introduction

LOUISVILLE, Ky., April 1, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Rand McNally has rolled out a 7-inch version of its popular TND((TM)) Tablet for professional truckers, giving drivers another option for a combined truck-specific GPS and pre-loaded Android tablet.

Rand McNally is demonstrating the new TND((TM)) Tablet 70 through April 2(nd) at the Mid-America Trucking Show, booth #68144 in the West Wing of the Kentucky Exposition Center.

The new GPS tablet comes one year after Rand McNally debuted its innovative TND((TM)) Tablet with 8-inch screen. Just like the original, the TND((TM)) Tablet 70 brings together solutions drivers need while:

    --  Operating their vehicle - such as truck-specific routing, mileage
        tracking and an on-board dash cam,
    --  Managing the business of driving - with pre-loaded apps such as document
        scanning, load matching, and book-keeping assistance,
    --  Taking advantage of down time - since the device is on the Android
        platform drivers can check email, keep up with social media, and
        download entertainment.
The TND((TM)) Tablet 70 contains all the same features as the original 8-inch GPS tablet, but in a 7-inch screen-size format for those who prefer a slightly smaller device. Additionally, both tablets can be paired with the just-announced ELD 50 device to create a compliant electronic logging system.

The new tablet offers:

    --  Award-winning IntelliRoute(®) TND((TM)) truck-specific navigation
        software,
    --  Rand McNally's TripMaker(®) planning tool that allows drivers to create
        a trip on the tablet and then push the route to the GPS on the tablet
        for truck-specific routing,
    --  An eBook edition of Rand McNally's #1-selling Motor Carriers' Road
        Atlas,
    --  An onboard dash cam that records video of the road ahead,
    --  A front-facing camera for capturing photos or using for Wi-Fi-enabled
        video calls,
    --  Fuel Manager, from Let's Truck - an easy, efficient, tank-by-tank
        tracking of fueling costs (including partials) and mileage. This app
        helps drivers learn how to improve their trucks' fuel performance,
    --  Profit Gauges, from Let's Truck - the easiest accounting/bookkeeping
        system for owner-operators and company drivers alike includes overview
        screens for a quick business assessment, profit and loss statements, and
        month-end and tax reporting,
    --  Truck It Smart's load board - allows real-time access for posting and
        searching loads or trucks. A proven, powerful and easy-to-use tool, this
        online freight-matching solution helps simplify logistics and increase
        profitability for shippers, brokers, and truckers,
    --  TRANSFLO Mobile+ -- provides a one-stop solution to speed cash flow and
        optimize communications between carriers, brokers and drivers by
        allowing scanning and submission of documents on the go (including
        accident and claims documents) using the tablet's built-in camera.
The device itself features:

    --  A magnetic, commercial-grade powered mount with an additional GPS
        antenna, helping to ensure that the navigation experience is superior.
        Rugged enough for the in-cab environment, the mount allows for the
        TND((TM)) Tablet to be easily removed for use at a truckstop, home, or
        in the sleeping berth,
    --  A 7-inch screen with pinch and zoom functionality,
    --  Compatibility with rear or side-view camera (sold separately).
Priced at $449.99, the TND((TM)) Tablet 70 is available at retail truck stops and travel centers, select online outlets, and store.randmcnally.com.

New Verizon OccuCam -- will connect your eyes to social networks, 24x7

Friends and family will see what YOU see, every second of every day

BASKING RIDGE, N.J., April 1, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Staying ahead of the consumer trend of staying always connected, Verizon today said it is developing OccuCam(TM), an exciting new wearable video camera that will connect consumers' eyes directly to their social networks -- allowing anyone and everyone to share what they are seeing at any time.

https://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20160331/350289

This revolutionary nanotechnology will be embedded into contact lenses and connect to Verizon's award-winning network. OccuCam, expected to be available in 2020, allows users to connect directly to their social media channels, including Twitter, Facebook and Periscope.

"The OccuCam will reverse what others have tried -- those giant 'glasses' that can let a viewer see their own content. Now you deliver a streaming service that shares video of what you're experiencing in the moment!" said Iris Winker, VP-Eye Solutions. "Soon, everyone will be able to see what everyone else is doing, all the time!"

"What's next?" asked Ms. Winker. "Next, we'll deliver technology that listens to your thoughts and shares them immediately to everyone you know, unfiltered and unaltered -- providing the utmost transparency in how human beings relate with each other. The opportunities for new apps are boundless."

OccuCam will open a new world of potential benefits. Not only will consumers be able to share their line of vision with others, but a series of new apps will compile data in real time and give helpful feedback. Applications under development include:

    --  Cat Watch -- Kooky technology instantly recognizes every time a cat
        comes into view and instantly blasts it directly to all your social
        channels, so everyone you know can marvel at the cat's hilarious antics.
    --  Cheat-ID we -- Players - you're warned. Cheat-ID knows when you've been
        looking at an attractive individual just a tad too long, whether they're
        a coworker, an ex-boyfriend or ex-girlfriend from high school, or even
        the hot server at the fast-food drive through. Wandering eye? Cheat-ID
        will automatically alert your spouse or significant other about the
        potential for trouble.

Medication Authentication with Aegate: DocMorris Pioneers in Falsified Medicine Protection

HEERLEN, The Netherlands and LONDON, March 31, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --

    Today DocMorris, in collaboration with Aegate, announces the implementation of a
medicine authentication system that will allow it to meet the legal requirements of the EU
Falsified Medicines Directive (FMD). By acting now, prior to the February 2019 deadline
for application of the FMD, DocMorris will be the first mail order pharmacy in Europe to
be able to put the FMD into daily routine at the pharmacy - to the benefit of their
patients.

(Logo:
http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20150610/748687 )

    Under the FMD manufacturers will have to provide individual pack safety features via a
serialised code and tamper evident seal that meet EU specifications. These elements can
now be tested. To do this Aegate has developed a demonstrator, that shows the
end-to-end-authentication process from the manufacturer to the pharmacy which is the
dispensing point. The benefit for the pharmaceutical manufacturers: Thanks to the
cooperation between Aegate, the worldwide leading specialist in medication authentication,
and Europe's largest mail order pharmacy DocMorris pharmaceutical manufactures will be
able to check, their serialisied medicine packs under real conditions.

    Verification occurs using the technical connection to an authentication platform by
Aegate, one of the selected National Blueprint providers in Europe. The Aegate platform
fully meets the specifications of the directive, and both pharmacies and mail order
pharmacies can connect to the European-wide system.

    For years, DocMorris has supported measures that strengthen medication security at
both a European and national level. "As the most modern pharmacy in Europe, it is clear
that we want to be the pioneer in implementing the guidelines from the Falsified Medicines
Directive to offer our patients the maximum level of protection when purchasing
medications. The Aegate platform, which can be easily integrated in our current
pharmaceutical system, guarantees maximum security even with a huge amount of daily
authentication requests," said Prof. Dr. Christian Franken, Head Pharmacist and Chief
Pharmaceutical Officer at DocMorris. The mail order pharmacy dispenses more than 20,000
prescription medicine packs to consumers in Germany every day.

    "An uninterrupted verification process from the manufacturer up to the dispensing is
the perfect way to discover falsified medicines," said Mark de Simone, Aegate CEO. "With
our system we are protecting the health of patients. Furthermore, we offer pharmaceutical
manufacturers an effective and efficient implementation of the European Falsified
Medicines Directive in time." Aegate already checks 2.5 million transactions a day - in
less than a quarter of a second response time for the dispensing pharmacist. The British
company is active in 13 European countries and, with its system, has verified over 3.9
billion medicine packs in recent years.

Casio's Rugged Pro Trek Timepieces Are Essential Tools For Outdoor Activities This Spring

PRO TREK Series Boasts Triple Sensor Version 3 Technology, Tough Solar Power and Water Resistance

DOVER, N.J., March 31, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Spring is here and Casio America, Inc. is encouraging consumers to take advantage of the warm weather by participating in all of the activities that the great outdoors has to offer. From fishing and camping to hiking and trail runs, Casio's popular PRO TREK series of timepieces is durable, versatile, and stylishly packed with a variety of features essential for any outdoor adventure this spring.

http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20160223/336539LOGO

"Casio knows its consumers are always on the move and looking for their next adventure, so there is no better time than spring to venture outdoors or take up a new hobby," said David Johnson, Vice President of Casio's Timepiece Division. "Whether it is running, fishing, or hiking, Casio's PRO TREK timepieces are designed with features geared for the great outdoors so that users - either seasoned enthusiasts or casual hobbyists - can tackle their spring adventures with ease."

Product highlights include:

PRO TREK PRG300
The PRO TREK PRG300 offers Casio's Triple Sensor Version 3 Technology, which provides outdoor enthusiasts with more accurate data readings to help navigate through any adventure. The timepiece includes a direction sensor and pressure sensor for compass capabilities as well as altimeter/barometer readings enabling the user to effortlessly check--and record--all the needed information on outdoor conditions. Furthermore, with Casio's Tough Solar Power technology, users can charge the timepiece in low or fluorescent light, eliminating the need for continuous battery replacement. It will also power down when not exposed to light for a certain period of time, thus conserving energy.

The PRG300 is available now at select retailers nationwide for $250 in three different color options including: a black bezel with a black resin band and blue accents; a black bezel with a black resin band and yellow accents; and a white bezel with a white resin band and black accents. It is also available in a green and red camouflage design for a MSRP of $280.

PRO TREK PRW3500
Based on Casio's PRW-3000, which has a digital display and is water resistant up to 100 meters, the 200 meter water resistance found in the PRW3500 allows outdoor enthusiasts to take their adventures to new heights--and depths. Like its predecessor, the PRW3500 boasts Triple Sensor Version 3 Technology and Multi-Band 6 Atomic Timekeeping technology, which alleviates concerns about changing the time for Daylight Saving Time or leap years. The timepiece automatically synchronizes with atomic clocks in the US, Germany, the UK, China and two in Japan based on the user's home city setting. In addition, the PRW3500 can be operated easily even if the user is wearing gloves, thanks to its large buttons, non-slip surfaces and a register ring that has been shaped for easy gripping.

Casio's PRW3500 is available now at select retailers nationwide in three different color options including: a silver bezel with black resin band (MSRP: $300), orange bezel with orange resin band (MSRP: $320), and black bezel with titanium band (MSRP: $450).

Ricoh Imaging Announces RICOH THETA * IoT Developers Contest

Applicants to Get Early Access to Ricoh's New IoT Platform

DENVER, March 31, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Ricoh Imaging Americas Corporation today announced the second annual developers contest soliciting applications for applications and gadgets that utilize the RICOH THETA camera, which can take 360-degree, fully spherical images and videos. Registration will be open April 1 through August 10. Those registered have until August 31 to submit their final apps and gadgets. Applicants will get early access to the new platform, which is optimized for cloud-based applications leveraging the Internet of Things (IoT).

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

Held as part of Ricoh's 80th anniversary celebration, this year's contest challenges developers to create innovative apps and gadgets that work in conjunction with RICOH THETA, including those that allow the use of RICOH THETA in a cloud-based environment as enabled by the new IoT platform. Winners of the contest will receive a trip to Tokyo, Japan, for the awards ceremony, and a substantial cash prize.

"In this age of IoT, where many objects are connected to the cloud, the value of making data and an API 'open' has been increasing steadily. Open environments also help drive innovation," said Dr. Ken Sakamura, chair judge of this contest and Professor of Interfaculty of Initiatives in Information Studies at University of Tokyo. "Globally, there is a trend to adopt open APIs to enable the control of products from outside a company. However, this trend is still small in the Japanese market. Through this contest, early bird access to the cloud-based API for RICOH THETA will be available to the contestants, so I look forward to seeing the contest receive submissions that mash up the camera with new apps, new gadgets and novel IoT ideas."

RICOH THETA's ability to capture imagery from all directions with a single capture means that it is an ideal device for providing content to applications that benefit from the emerging IoT age, in which virtually all devices are connected. The new IoT platform makes it possible for developers to efficiently and cost-effectively build cloud-based apps, which typically require significant expertise in cloud services and servers and a longer development time. Applicants get first access to the beta version of this platform and a cloud API, which will be released as a BaaS (Backend as a Service)*(1) for RICOH THETA. 

Register for the RICOH THETA * IoT Developers Contest starting April 1 here: http://contest.theta360.com/index-en.html

*(1) BaaS (Backend as a Service) is a type of cloud computing that provides app developers with shared functions such as authentication and management of users and equipment, push notifications, and SNS linking through the internet. App developers can incorporate these functions easily through the use of a cloud API (Application Programming Interface) and SDK (Software Development Kit).

Socionext to Demonstrate World's First Single-Chip 8K Video Decoder and Most Efficient Video and Broadcast Device Technology at Annual NAB Show

Compact, Leading Edge 4K and 8K HEVC Video Processors Feature Low Power Encoding, Decoding for Full Range of Content and Service Providers

SUNNYVALE, Calif., March 31, 2016 /CNW/ -- Socionext Inc. will showcase a complete set of advanced video and broadcast demonstrations for content and service providers at the annual NAB Show in at the Las Vegas Convention Center April 18-21.

http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20150402/196435LOGO

At booth SU13913 in the South Hall's upper level, Socionext will highlight its new 8K HEVC decoder device for 8K broadcast receiver systems. Demonstrations include 4K and 8K real-time encoding and decoding, multi-channel encoding with statistical multiplexing, smart Interconnect architecture for remote maintenance and production systems, along with HDR support designed specifically for video broadcast content and service providers.

New 8K-resolution HEVC Video Decoder

The new SCH801A, designed for content providers who require fast turnaround video with minimal power, was developed in collaboration with NHK (Nippon Hoso Kyokai, Japan Broadcasting Corporation). The term 8K represents an ultra-high definition format of digital video with 33 million pixels, 16 times the number in a typical HD system now. The SCH801A can decode 8K 60P at one channel with a single chip. It is equipped with one lane of PCI Express Gen2, and four channels of HDMI 2.0 Tx as external interfaces.

In addition to decoding 8K HEVC, Socionext is designing solutions to support all the functions needed for 8K broadcast receiver system, including 16APSK demodulator, DTV SoC and others. The company is also developing technologies for non-TV applications such as video distribution through network and digital signage, as part of its objective to be the world's first 8K total solution provider in the industry.

MB86M31 Features Versatility, Low Power

The MB86M31 is a chipset that compresses a 4K 60P real time HEVC video using only a quarter rack unit. Chipset power requirements are only 8W, providing a 90 percent power saving compared with other solutions, many of which use multiple rack units and require up to 600W. The reduced power and size are vital for next generation high-density video processing servers and portable devices like production cameras.

The "M31" enables the transmission of 4K high quality, high definition video through live broadcast or network distribution, while using about half the bandwidth required with the conventional H.264. It is also compatible with YUV 4:2:2 10bit encoding, which is essential for professional use.

The MB86M31 supports multi-channel encoding with full HD or lower resolution video, which enables higher density for professional encoding. It will also support StatMux-ready features by adopting optional firmware. This feature helps to reduce the total bandwidth consumption of multi-channel streams in combination with the external StatMux controller.

In addition, players in the Chinese mainland can enjoy the animation and other products based on Final Fantasy XV with global players at the same time, a synchronized move expected to generate a lot of excitement among fans.

Since the release of the initial installment of the series on the Family Computer platform in 1987, Final Fantasy has witnessed an aggregate sales volume of more than 100 million units. The global launch of Final Fantasy XV is unprecedented in scope and coverage since the birth of the series. The release of its Chinese mainland version, timed to be simultaneous with the global launch, is highly anticipated within the industry.

Oriental Pearl has cable TV, IPTV, OTT, console and mobile platforms as well as other content distribution channels and serves over 100 million video subscribers and game players. The entertainment firm also provides superior offline resources through Shanghai's landmark Oriental Pearl Tower and Mercedes-Benz Arena. The collaboration with Square Enix for the worldwide release of the 3A title Final Fantasy XV provides a connection between Chinese game distribution platforms and global content providers. 

In December 2015, Oriental Pearl announced a wide range of development strategies and international partnerships, among them, deals with Amazon on the cloud and Fun TV, in a move to strengthen the many components of its media ecosystem. The China-based new media firm plans to leverage its integrated distribution platform and its more than 100 million customers to move the management of popular content-rich and IP-based games to the cloud, enabling multi-platform interaction of games and video derivatives on large-screen TVs, smartphones, tablets and other terminals. Oriental Pearl has a decade of experience in building a large new media user base on large screens, reflecting the brand value of IP-based game titles.

Oriental Pearl President Ling Gang said in a media interview, "Final Fantasy XV is the first Big IP game launched by the company and this is just a beginning. The company plans to integrate many core resources into the concept of 'Big IP'. By taking advantage of its resources in the large screen and internet segments, the company expects to boost the effectiveness of its promotion, distribution and management of content."

By announcing the new partnership in the Chinese mainland immediately after the launch event, Square Enix demonstrated the value that it places on the mainland market. The Japan-based game developer selected Oriental Pearl on the basis of the integrated resources that were deployed in the launching of console games, the success surrounding the promotion of the Oriental Pearl Media brand, the expansion into the game market as well as the wide array of channel and multi-platform sales partners.

More quality content is to be launched in the Chinese mainland market through Oriental Pearl Media's platforms, simultaneously providing Chinese and global players with the same excellent user experience.

The End of Cellphone Bills

Ad-Supported Screensaver App To End Rising Monthly Cellphone Bills

SEATTLE, March 30, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- A new Android mobile app that uses targeted advertising to eliminate consumers' cellphone bills by passing those costs on to advertisers, FreeMo (http://www.getfreemo.com), is available today for Android devices on Google Play and on the GetFreeMo.com website.

The average smartphone user's cellphone bill has skyrocketed to $100 or more each month. And this number is only going up. FreeMo believes consumers, who supply valuable marketing data to advertisers when using their cellphones, deserve to be compensated for this data in the form of free or drastically reduced monthly cellphone bills.

The FreeMo App is a screensaver app that displays full-screen, high quality advertisements and local deals on users' lock screens when the phone is locked. Downloading and maintaining the app on their smartphone entitles the user to an automatic $5 credit off their cellphone bill every 30 days. Users get another $5 credit for every person they refer that downloads and keeps the app on their phone. FreeMo works with all carriers, from pre-paid services like Boost, Metro PCS, and Virgin Mobile to post-paid carriers like T-Mobile, Sprint, AT&T, and Verizon.

FreeMo has partnered with American Consumer Surveys, Twitter, Lyft, Pandora and others to provide even more ways by which to earn credits, for example, taking surveys, downloading apps, watching videos, and redeeming coupons. Those credits can be redeemed and directly applied to the users' cellphone bills with just a few button clicks. If the user earns enough credits, their service is free that month.

The ads displayed on each user's screensaver are specifically targeted to that user. The user chooses from several preference-based categories in the app so the ads on their screensaver are relevant and interesting to them.

The future of mobile is free, and that future begins now with FreeMo.

Android smartphone users can learn more about their future of no monthly cellphone bills at http://www.getfreemo.com. Interested media may arrange a meeting with FreeMo by calling (844) 693-7336.

Canon U.S.A. Further Expands Line of Network Cameras with Five New High-Performance Models Delivering Clear and Color-Accurate Video

New Models Include Speed Domes with 30x Optical Zoom, a Vandal-Resistant Indoor Fixed Dome with Canon's Unique Remote PTRZ Adjustment, and a Vandal- and Weather-Resistant Outdoor Fixed Dome with Built-In IR Illuminators

MELVILLE, N.Y., March 30, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital imaging solutions, today unveiled five new network cameras with advanced capabilities designed to effectively meet the needs of indoor and outdoor applications in a wide range of markets. All five cameras share several core technologies and features including a Genuine Canon Lens for capturing high-clarity, virtually distortion-free video, a 2.1 Megapixel (1920 x 1080) resolution high sensitivity CMOS sensor, and Canon's powerful DIGIC DV III Image Processor which helps to provide images with remarkable color accuracy even in low-light environments.

http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20160119/323578LOGO

"The importance of security and surveillance continues to increase for all types of markets and sectors," stated Yuichi Ishizuka, president and COO, Canon U.S.A., Inc. "With the announcement of these new high-performance indoor and outdoor models, Canon is once again demonstrating its strong commitment to developing network cameras that meet the ever-changing needs of these varied industries."

Outdoor/Indoor Speed Dome Network Cameras

Canon's new Speed Dome Network Cameras, the VB-R12VE (outdoor) and VB-R13 (indoor), both offer seamless PTZ control provided by 360 degrees endless panning capability. In addition to 30x optical zoom for crisp images even from long distances, these cameras also share an Enhanced Digital Zoom function that can offer up to an equivalent 120x optical zoom when streaming at lower resolutions. Adding to their user-friendliness and ease of PTZ control is the ability to create up to 256 preset positions and up to five tour routes. Canon optical encoders, micro-stepping motors, and a timing belt enable these models to provide fast (up to 450 degrees per second), precise panning and tilting.

With a robust weather- and vandal-resistant housing and built-in heater, the VB-R12VE camera is outdoor ready and able to withstand a variety of challenging environments. This model is also available with audio and external I/O support as the VB-R13VE.

VB-H651V Vandal Resistant Indoor Fixed Dome Network Camera

The VB-H651V is Canon's newest Indoor Fixed Dome Network Camera to feature the company's unique Remote PTRZ Adjustment function for easy post-installation changes to the camera's pan, tilt, zoom and rotation positions. A vandal-resistant enclosure helps facilitate this camera's safety from impact and tampering. The VB-H651V camera's ability to deliver high-quality video is supported by an Auto Focus function for clear focusing on subjects both near and far away. This camera comes with a mounting plate to enable fast and simple installation, and it has multiple power options for installation flexibility, including 24 V AC, 12 V DC and PoE.

VB-H652LVE Infrared Vandal Resistant Outdoor Fixed Dome Network Camera

Canon also introduced the VB-H652LVE, its new infrared outdoor-ready Fixed Dome Network Camera which has a vandal-resistant, water-tight housing and optional heater unit making it suitable for installation in many climates. It is equipped with four built-in IR illuminators that enable video to be captured in little to no visible light, and an Auto Focus function for clear focusing on subjects both near and far away. It offers analog video output and installation controls for simple camera positioning during installation, and multiple power options including 24 V AC, 12 V DC, PoE and PoE+ provide further installation flexibility.

Convenience and Versatility

For added versatility, all of these new Canon network cameras have the ability to stream in both 16:9 and 4:3 resolutions, and also offer Custom Video Settings for optimal image exposure according to time of day and conditions (includes shutter speed, iris, gain, white balance, and noise reduction). Two available features, Motion Adaptive Noise Reduction and Area-Specific Data Size Reduction (ADSR), are both designed to help reduce data size while also helping to improve the image quality of areas of interest. These cameras are suitable for installation in areas with frequent vibrations - such as on top of a pole or near heavy machinery - as an Image Stabilization feature enables them to deliver clear video with minimal motion blurring.

The simple setup and use offered by these new Network Cameras is furthered by a Camera Viewer and a Mobile Viewer that provide easy access to the camera's features and functionality from a variety of different compatible devices including PCs, mobile phones and tablets. All of these cameras are ONVIF Profile S and Profile G Conformant to help facilitate maximum interoperability with third-party recorders, and all also include a Canon Camera Management Tool (CCMT) that allows for centralized management of all current Canon Network Cameras (camera discovery, configuration, back-ups and restores, firmware upgrades, etc.).

With the rising incidence of home invasion, protection and security are more important than ever before. While home security systems have been on the market for decades, few offer the right mixture of ease of use, convenience, performance and savings. zHome aims to change that by introducing a unique mixture of features and benefits, combined with the affordability today's families demand.

The zHome smart home security system requires no complex installation, thanks to its plug and play feature. The system can also be controlled completely from an iPhone. This allows family members to control the system easily from anywhere, with all the features they would expect at home. It also integrates the latest IoT technology as well as SmartVoice. Similar technology is utilized in Amazon Echo, which works like a virtual assistant. 

"I had experienced a home invasion before, and we know firsthand what most customers want. We wanted to design a home security system that deployed with the latest smart home technology to provide the best protection to your home, at an affordable price for the average homeowner," explained by Kevin, a Silicon Valley veteran and a co-founder of the company.

The standard zHome package includes the SmartHub, a motion sensor, door and window sensors and a fully-functional iPhone app. Perhaps most impressive, it costs less than $100 (or more than 50% off MSRP) right now on Indiegogo and requires no monthly fee. The zHome package also provides streaming video with night vision, pan/tilt and two-way audio functions to push real-time video surveillance to a user's smartphone.

Security always is the first priority for the zHome system. A crash and smash protection feature is also provided to prevent burglars from attempting to break the system before an alarm signal can be sent. All private data is also completely secured with the standard AES algorithm.

There are several other key features that make zHome a revolutionary solution compared to the traditional home security industry. For instance, ZigBee is broadly utilized to provide the highest performance, and most devices deploy dual-sensors to also detect environmental data. The system features Li-poly batteries to achieve three times more lifespan and the best protection. zHome is hardware-compatible with Google Thread.

Finally, the system includes the optional zHome Relay device, which allows the coverage and protection to be scaled up or down depending on the need. It's capable of covering any space, from small apartments to over ten thousand square ft. warehouses.

Zhuhai CTC Electronic Assumes Leadership Position Across Industrial 3D Printer Sector With Roll Out of Walnut Family of Metal 3D Printers

ZHUHAI, China, March 30, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Information gleaned from the 2015 financial statements of leading additive manufacturing solutions and systems providers Sweden-based Arcam Group and Germany-based EOS reflects a strong and growing market demand for metal printing worldwide. The application of industrial 3D printing is expected to become more widespread over the next decade. The market share of metal 3D printing, the brightest segment across the 3D printing spectrum, in particular printers with unit prices above US$300,000, is expected to rise to 27 per cent.

http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20160328/348284

Zhuhai CTC Electronic Co., Ltd ("CTC"), a renowned Chinese 3D printing manufacturer, announced the release of its new Walnut family of selective laser melting (SLM) technology-based industry-grade metal 3D printers via its official microblog.

Metal 3D printing, the most cutting-edge 3D printing technology, and one that is showing the most potential, is a significant achievement of advanced manufacturing technologies. CTC's SLM is one of the major metal 3D printing technologies that has gained industry-wide acceptance.

As for why CTC was able to launch a series of metal 3D printers so rapidly following the release of its line of industry-grade stereolithography (SLA) 3D printers, its PR Manager Yoyo Hee said: "We are the first and, to date, quite possibly the sole manufacturer in China to have built the dot-scan 3D operating system on our own, and, at variance with other domestic makers, we do not rely on technologies developed by foreign outsourcing firms. SLA and SLM are based on the same software algorithm, enabling rapid research and development."

Metal 3D printers represent a robust technology with huge application potential, especially application in manufacturing of the key components that go into high-end products such as aerospace and automotive components. A research report showed that users of aerospace and military products accounted for 14.4 per cent of the metal 3D printing market in 2015. Aerospace manufacturing processes, for the most part, depend on expensive strategic materials, such as intractable metal materials including titanium alloy and nickel-base superalloy. Metal 3D printers stand ready to replace some of the traditional processing manufacturing tools in the not too distant future and, as a result, metal 3D printers are expected to trigger fierce competition in the industrial application market.

Due to the lack of proprietary metal 3D printing technologies in China, almost all the necessary equipment and materials are dominated by foreign manufacturers, resulting in higher costs associated with the use of 3D printing technologies across the Chinese manufacturing sector. The new proprietary metal 3D printer introduced by CTC marks the first technical breakthrough for the industry in the country.

Ms. Hee further explained, "As one of the top 3D printing technology suppliers in China, CTC provides customers worldwide with comprehensive solutions encompassing resin, metal, fused deposition modeling (FDM), SLM, desktop and industry-grade. The launch of the CTC Walnut series marks a key step towards realizing our vision."

CTC's Walnut SLM metal 3D printer ensures a stable printing process, precision in the dimensions of the formed parts as well as mechanical properties and strength performance by using an infrared high-energy fiber laser and a Scanlab high-precision scanning galvanometer. The open access to reference information allows Walnut to expand the range of metallic materials that can be applied to the printing process.

CTC Walnut metal SLM 3D printer series includes:

    --  Walnut 26
    --  Walnut 18
    --  Walnut 11

Owl Computing Technologies Announces Three New Cross Domain Cybersecurity Capabilities

Accredited single-box solution supports file transfer, event messaging and NFS

RIDGEFIELD, Conn., March 30, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Owl Computing Technologies, Inc., a cybersecurity solutions provider, announced today that it has three new cross domain solutions ready for demonstration. Cross Domain solutions represent the most stringent cybersecurity solutions for the DoD and Intelligence community. Owl has been providing cross domain capabilities since 1998 and currently supports all branches of the U.S. military. These three new solutions expand on Owl's existing broad offering.

https://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20160330/349350

All three solutions operate on Owl's single box SFF (Small Form Factor) platform. Steve Staubly, Director of Product Development at Owl noted, "The SFF is a powerful 1U solution with greatly reduced SWAP (size, weight and power) requirements. Comparable systems may require up to 13 servers to provide the same capabilities, significantly increasing the footprint of those systems."

These three new capabilities (file, event messaging and NFS transfers) are all based on Owl products that are already UCDSMO (Unified Cross Domain Services Management Office) validated and Baseline listed. Using products already listed on the UCDSMO Baseline is extremely important to Cross Domain users as it allows them to significantly simplify the accreditation process and deploy very quickly.

Based on Owl's OCDS-FT01 validated product, the OCDS-FT15 is Owl's first 1U accredited solution for file transfer spanning multiple security levels and is an UCDSMO candidate. The Baseline validated Owl OCDS-ST06, used for streaming data, now uses a more flexible UDP structure for secure transfer of event messages like Syslog and SNMP. And the Owl Multi-level Data Retrieval Service (MDRS), which provides a seamless NFS proxy service across a dual-path transfer platform, is also now available on the 1U platform.

"These three new functions are an example of our on-going effort to continually expand the capabilities of our accredited solutions product line," said Dr. Ronald Mraz, President and CEO of Owl. "Owl takes real pride in how long we have been protecting the networks of the U.S. military on so many different fronts."

For more information about Owl's complete cross domain offering, these new releases and how we serve the different branches of the U.S. military please visit http://www.owlcti.com.
