Challau Lets People Around the World ‘Teleport’ to Virtually Visit Places by Beaming Into Remotely Controlled Robots

Travellers can now explore far away destinations in real-time through the eyes of a robot using their smartphone or computer

LONDON, Oct. 23, 2020 — People who have been unable to travel can now, for the first time, visit and explore a variety of destinations with a new platform by Propelmee that lets users ‘teleport’ to places thousands of miles away.

UK technology start-up Propelmee today announces the public beta-release of Challau, a first-of-its-kind robot-powered virtual travel platform. Using Challau, travellers can choose from a range of destinations called ‘Portals’ to decide where they want to ‘teleport’ to. Each Portal has a live countdown until it becomes Active, at which point anyone can enter the Portal and virtually arrive at that location. Travellers can then experience the live sights and sounds that a Challau Robot is seeing and hearing at the Portal’s physical location, and then choose to ‘beam into’ a robot.

A digital on-screen joystick lets travellers guide the robot’s movements through their smartphone or computer with a full-screen view from the robot’s main and secondary cameras. People around the robot can also see and hear the beamed in remote travellers, and using the robot’s microphone and speakers, remote travellers can speak to locals should they wish.

Challau also supports physical joysticks and other game controllers that are paired with a browser (e.g. Playstation or Xbox controllers) making the experience like a real-life first-person video game. Challau robots are equipped with built-in safety technology and artificial intelligence to support the virtual travel experience.

"Countries around the world have imposed many travel restrictions and introduced strict quarantining rules. This makes it very difficult for people to travel for leisure or recreation. Tourism is one of the last remaining sectors to go fully digital – there aren’t any good online alternatives for visiting places and that’s what we wanted to solve with Challau", says Zain Khawaja, Founder & CEO of Propelmee.

Challau currently offers virtual travel to 7 destinations in the UK, including iconic tourist attractions such as Trafalgar Square London and historic locations in the city of Oxford. Challau aims to scale up to 21 Portal destinations in the UK and internationally at the start of the New Year.

"Compared to existing online travel options, Challau gives users complete agency to explore as they wish, in real-time. We think that it’s really exciting for people to drive a robot on the other side of the world. It’s the closest thing to actually being there in person", says Khawaja.

The company is extending its technology to support other types of edge devices for unique remote travel experiences in crowded bazaars or busy city centers and is also integrating augmented reality to enrich user experiences. The service is currently free to try at www.challau.com and does not require pre-booking.

Electrolux Q3 2020 Interim report: Strong results and cash flow on rebounding markets

STOCKHOLM, Oct. 23, 2020

The comments and figures in this report refer to continuing operations unless otherwise stated

Highlights of the third quarter of 2020

  • Net sales amounted to SEK 32,004m (30,330). Organic sales increased by 15.2%.
  • Record high operating income of SEK 3,220m (1,063), corresponding to a margin of 10.1% (3.5), mainly driven by strong volumes and prices. The comparison period included non-recurring items of SEK -290m.
  • Significant market recovery driven mainly by pent-up demand and government stimulus programs.
  • Income for the period amounted to SEK 2,356m (610) and earnings per share was SEK 8.20 (2.12).
  • Operating cash flow after investments was SEK 6,005m (2,499).
  • The Board proposes to reinstate a dividend for 2019 of SEK 7.00 (8.50) per share, to be paid in one instalment.

President and CEO Jonas Samuelson’s comment

In the third quarter Electrolux reported record earnings of SEK 3,220m, or 10.1% of net sales, driven by pent-up demand and government stimulus programs impacting consumer spending. This drove significant volume growth, and positive price and mix improvement, resulting in organic sales growth of 15.2%. The record high operating income translated into a strong operating cash flow after investments of SEK 6,005m.

The strong demand in the quarter was to a significant extent a recovery of the very low market volumes in March-May due to store closures and restrictions on movement. Demand was further enhanced by stimulus programs, more than compensating for the weaker economy caused by the pandemic. Due to pandemic restrictions during the first half of the year, we entered the quarter with unusually low inventory levels, which have remained during the quarter despite high production levels, somewhat impacting our ability to meet the strong demand across all regions. 

Sales also benefitted from consumers spending more time at home, using their appliances more intensively and allocating more of their household budgets to home improvement. This in combination with our relentless focus on consumer experience innovation has continued to improve demand for our more highly featured products, driving favorable product mix.

One great experience innovation example is the Frigidaire Gallery AirFry cooker that recently received the 2020 innovation award at the Home Depot. The AirFry cooker also delivers a significantly higher gross margin compared to traditional cookers. Innovation is truly a key pillar for creating value and that is why we will showcase how we are driving profitable growth through innovation at our online Capital Markets Update on November 17.

The Board of Directors proposed to reinstate a dividend for the fiscal year 2019 based on the recovery in earnings and cash flow. The proposed dividend of SEK 7 per share will be up for decision at an Extraordinary General Meeting on November 3. Our strong commitment to sustainability remains unchanged with the target of climate neutrality by 2050, and I am pleased that the long-term incentive program for senior managers proposed by the Board includes a substantial climate impact reduction element.

Looking into the fourth quarter, visibility remains limited as demand may be impacted by several factors, especially as the pandemic is still very much present. However, we currently anticipate that consumer demand and thus financial performance will normalize gradually going forward. Considering this and the catch-up effect during the third quarter, we are revising our market outlook for the full-year 2020 upwards. We anticipate market demand for appliances in Europe to be slightly positive, in North America to be slightly positive to positive and in Latin America to be positive. It is only the combined demand in our larger markets in the Asia-Pacific, Middle East and Africa region that we still expect to be negative for 2020.

I am very proud of how we as an organization successfully have navigated in these challenging times. My colleagues around the world has done a great job in executing on our strategy. That is why I am confident that Electrolux remains well positioned to create value.

CaDi introduces Lycofertilic™ – high potency, targeted supplements with algae DHA Omega-3 to provide anti-ageing support for the ovarian reserve and to prepare for egg retrieval and IVF

LONDON, Oct. 23, 2020Cambridge Diagnostic Imaging (CaDi) is launching a new generation of targeted daily supplements, LycofertilicTM for fertility support and LycofertilicTM Prime to prepare for egg retrieval and IVF.

The ovarian reserve and egg quality of women declines with age. This depletion is exacerbated by stress, imbalanced diet and obesity and is further deteriorated by inflammatory pathologies of the pelvic organs. These processes, even on a subclinical asymptomatic level, are amogst the main factors negatively affecting natural or artificial fertilisation processes and pregnancy.

Lycofertilic™ has been developed by Lycotec, a company in Cambridge, UK. It is a patented complex of DHA Omega-3, Lutein and Zeaxanthin, which, due to patented technology, helps to provide anti-ageing support for the ovarian reserve in women throughout their fertility years.

It is very important to improve the quality of the egg in its preparation for retrieval and IVF. Lycofertilic™ Prime is an increased dose of this complex developed especially to boost this process.

Clinical trials (link below) demonstrated 250 mg of Lycofertilic™ DHA Omega 3 to be 10-16 times stronger than conventional Omega 3 supplement products and 4–5 times more powerful than Omega 3 pharmaceuticals. This superiority translates into a much more efficient reduction in markers of inflammatory damage and to a boost in peripheral tissue oxygenation and respiration. The increased bioavailability and targeted delivery reduces side effects and makes for unnecessary overconsumption of traditional Omega 3 products.

"According to the World Health Organisation 28 million women around the world encounter fertility problems every year. This is a serious problem which we decided to help to address by launching these new innovative technology-based products. As preparation for IVF is a critical period for the fertilisation process, it is of utmost importance that women receive health products with the highest quality ingredients such as algae DHA Omega-3, and of sustainable origin too" said Alexey Shulepov, CEO of CaDi.

A combination of Lycofertilic™ products with a personalised CaDi AI-based algorithm recommendation provides additional superior efficacy over existing Omega 3. Both Lycofertilic™ products are safe, vegan and their active ingredients are GMO-free and approved for humans.

HONG KONG, Oct. 23, 2020 — Regent Pacific Group Limited ("Regent Pacific" or the "Company" and together with its subsidiaries, the "Group"; SEHK:0575.HK) today announced that Deep Longevity, Inc,, a company recently acquired by the Group which mainly engaged in the development of explainable artificial intelligence systems to track the rate of aging at the molecular, cellular, tissue, organ, system, physiological, and psychological levels, has entered into a partnership with Longenesis, a leader in consent-enabled safe data curation for research. Two companies will partner on the integration of the consent management system developed by Longenesis into the Deep Longevity digital platform including Young.AI, a web-based tracker of aging and wellness, and the development of a federated learning framework.

Deep Longevity scientists are the original inventors of the "deep aging clocks", multimodal biomarkers of aging developed using deep learning techniques with multiple granted patents. They recently published deep hematological aging clocks, deep transcriptomic and proteomic aging clocks, deep microbiomic aging clocks, and contributed to the development of the photographic aging clocks.

Longenesis has created an end-to-end environment for biomedical institutions, patient organizations and research partners and sponsors – to communicate directly, enabling both safe data curation and compliant, consent-enabled biomedical data utilization for research.

"At Deep Longevity we are working on creating a network of hospitals and clinics that will have access to our aging clocks. To enable this network, we are aiming to create a federated learning pipeline, that will allow us to train multiple new aging clocks without the need to transfer user data", explains Polina Mamoshina, Ph.D., Chief Scientific Officer of Deep Longevity, a Regent Pacific company.

"Longenesis is a company invested by LongeVC, a venture fund, and accelerator dedicated to growing the longevity ecosystem in the European Union. Over the past few years, Longenesis developed a range of technologies to help protect user privacy and manage consent to help companies provide the individuals with more tools to take control over their data", said Garry Zmudze, founding partner of LongeVC, an investor in both Longenesis and Deep Longevity.

"At Longenesis we believe that the need for centralized, compliant and seamless biomedical data asset identification is crucial for collaborative research initiation, faster patient recruitment and timely response to global healthcare challenges. We are looking forward to this collaboration, creating a federated learning pipeline and embracing the "data stays local" principle at the same time", says Sergejs Jakimovs, a CEO of Longenesis.
