  • Ultra-slim TV and lightweight vehicles with improved energy efficiency
  • Reduced development period to 1/4 of projected time, achieving world-class performance
  • Internalization of core materials to provide differentiated customer value

SEOUL, South Korea, Oct. 18, 2020 — LG Innotek announced on the 19th that it has successfully developed a high-efficiency ferrite with the lowest power loss in the world. This development has contributed to LG Innotek’s dominance in the TV and vehicle power markets.

Ferrite is a magnetic material with iron oxide as its primary raw material, and ferrite powder is hardened into a tile shape for industrial use. It is usually installed in TV power modules, vehicle power sources, and chargers (On Board Charge, OBC) to change the voltage or remove unnecessary signals generated by current surges. This provides a stable power supply to display panels for TVs and air conditioners, as well as audio systems for vehicles.

As home appliances and electric vehicles have become increasingly smaller and more functional, high-efficiency ferrite– which is advantageous for ultra-slim and high-efficiency products– is being touted as a next-generation material.

The high-efficiency ferrite developed by LG Innotek has a maximum of 40% less power loss from heat compared to general ferrite. In addition, its low-loss characteristics are maintained at temperatures of -40 degrees Celsius to 140 degrees Celsius, giving it the advantage of realizing perfect quality in high-temperature TV interiors and various driving environments.

  • Ultra-slim TV and lightweight vehicles with improved energy efficiency

LG Innotek’s high-efficiency ferrite is advantageous in making ultra-slim TVs and reducing the weight of vehicles to increase fuel efficiency for electric and hydrogen vehicles.

Using this material allows a 60% reduction in TV thickness by making the TV power module only 9.9mm, the thinnest in the world. The normal thickness of a 65-inch ultra-slim OLED TV equipped with a general power module is about 46.9mm. When a high-efficiency ferrite power module is applied, the thickness can be reduced to 20mm or less. This is because the number of components for securing the required power is reduced by 1/3 due to low power loss.

In addition, high-efficiency ferrite can increase the energy efficiency of TV power modules up to 5%points. As the energy efficiency of a component increases, heat generation is reduced and the damage caused by heat minimized, thereby extending the life of the component.

When this product is applied to a vehicle DC-DC converter, the volume and weight of the converter can be reduced by 10% compared to the previous model, and the energy efficiency of the converter can be increased up to 1.2%points.

It also helps reduce the risk of fire due to the overheating of vehicle power. The low heat generation of high-efficiency ferrite can lower the temperature of components by up to 20 degrees Celsius compared to previous models.

  • Reduced development period to 1/4 of projected time, achieving world-class performance

In the field of ferrite, Japanese companies have dominated the market with the No. 1 technology in the world. However, Japanese products have been expensive and difficult to supply.

In response to this, LG Innotek became fully engaged in the development of high-efficiency ferrite starting in 2018. Since LG Innotek decided it would be difficult to close the gap with Japanese products using existing development methods, LG Innotek has applied simulation techniques such as digital transformation (DX) and artificial intelligence (AI) methods to design materials for the first time in the industry.

LG Innotek automates the process of finding the best-performing material composition ratio with supercomputers, greatly reducing the time and frequency of experiments while enhancing the accuracy of results. In the past, researchers conducted thousands of direct experiments to find the optimal ratio, which took a long time and was susceptible to user errors.

By making active investments in employing the latest software, technical advices, and industry-university cooperation, LG Innotek has successfully shortened their development period from a projected four years to only one year and four months.

  • Internalization of core materials to provide differentiated customer value

LG Innotek’s strategy is to strengthen its competitiveness by expanding the application of high-efficiency ferrite, a core material for its products.

In addition, LG Innotek is actively pushing ahead with promotional activities for global electronic companies and automakers with the aim of mass production of materials in the first half of next year. Also, in order to solidify its position as the No. 1 technology company in the field of high-efficiency ferrite, LG Innotek is spurring the advanced development of materials with improved performance based on approximately 120 related patents.

"It is a significant achievement that LG Innotek’s unique method of internalizing core materials in a short time has enabled us to provide a stable product supply with the best performance and quality to customers," said Bae Seok, a research fellow of Magnetic Components Task in LG Innotek’s CTO Division. "We will continue to provide differentiated value to our customers by utilizing magnetic materials," he continued.

SignOnSite is licensed by Trillium to provide a unique contactless worksite safety platform to help manage risk for complex construction projects

Leave a comment

A new digital platform radically changes risk and safety management in construction, which will be used in the construction of fueling stations.

HOUSTON, Oct. 18, 2020 — SignOnSite, the construction safety management system, today announced an agreement with Trillium CNG. Trillium is the Texas subsidiary of the Love’s Family of Companies that builds and manages compressed natural gas (CNG), electric vehicle (EV), and alternative energy fueling stations across the United States. Trillium will be using the SignOnSite personnel safety application to manage and protect workers at new CNG station building projects.

SignOnSite platform on all devices
SignOnSite platform on all devices

SignOnSite provides construction companies and their workers with a robust, but simple risk and safety management system that leverages the technology already on construction sites.

SignOnSite takes a highly unique approach to risk and safety management. Current systems require a top-down management model, where companies not only have to implement risk and safety management policies and procedures, but also have the burden of ensuring that the workers on site actively participate in them.

With SignOnSite, however, this model is flipped. The people on site are empowered with simple, straightforward technology that lets them easily engage with and participate in risk management processes. The construction company is then enabled with digital control of their sites and remote risk management capabilities.

For construction companies running complex projects, the increased efficiencies of a digital platform present a drastic increase in site management and safety risk management capabilities. Controls such as qualification and orientation management are complemented by productivity tools such as remote site visibility. Additionally, superintendents and project managers can manage site attendance, safety communication and even emergency evacuations.

Being a mobile app-based solution, SignOnSite is contactless and reduces COVID-19 transmission risk.

Job site safety is an ongoing concern for contractors, especially as process complexity increases which makes safety protocols more complex. OSHA estimates that nearly one-quarter of work-related industries are in the construction industry. Safety compliance and increased safety vigilance have been proven to reduce job-related injuries, reduce losses in time and money by 20% to 40%, and improve public safety.

Trillium is part of the Love’s Family of Companies which has a national network of truck stop and truck service locations. Trillium operates over 200 CNG fueling stations across the United States and offers services such as station design, construction, 24/7 operation and maintenance, grant writing, and commercial support. Building CNG fueling stations require unique design and safety measures to accommodate high-pressure tanks, including special installation procedures and using materials that are quite different from gasoline and diesel stations. CNG stations are subject to highly complex building codes and requirements and a more rigorous set of safety codes, standards, and regulations.

With SignOnSite, managers establish a site boundary on a digital map and workers are automatically logged into and out of the job site using a Passport credential set up in a SignOnSite smartphone app. In addition to attendance records, the SignOnSite app notifies workers of site safety rules, provides daily safety briefings, and shares work site information. It also can be used for site-specific orientations to ensure workers receive and acknowledge safety briefings. Workers also can use SignOnSite platform to store emergency contact information, qualifications, trade licenses and other data. A kiosk version also is available that provides on-site registration without the need for a mobile device.

"More mobile technology is being adopted on the job site, and we are seeing more North American companies like Trillium adopting mobile systems like SignOnSite to promote worker safety," said Mitch Harmer, Co-Founder & CEO of SignOnSite. "No other solution gives you real-time visibility into your on-site workforce while enforcing safety protocols and compliance. We expect more companies to adopt mobile solutions like SignOnSite to manage employee traffic and personnel safety."

In addition to registering employees entering the job site and providing safety updates, SignOnSite also generates site statistics reports to show worksite activity. Reports provide data such as the total number of site visitors, the number of subcontractors, the companies that visit the site, total hours, and more. Attendance data also can be shared with a Procore manpower register to calculate individual workers’ time on the job site.

About SignOnSite

BGK agrees with IMF report: “Infrastructure investment is a key priority for the CESEE region to accelerate convergence toward the EU15”

Leave a comment

WARSAW, Poland, Oct. 17, 2020 — Infrastructure investment is a key priority for Countries in Central, Eastern, and Southern Europe (CESEE) to accelerate the convergence of the living standards toward the level of the more advance European countries, the EU15 – says the IMF report published on 28th Sep 2020. IMF highlights the Three Seas Initiative Investment Fund (3SIIF) as an initiative with the "aim to address infrastructure needs in CESEE."

The report estimates that closing 50% of the infrastructure gap until 2030 would require an annual investment of 3-8% of GDP. Attracting private investors should be an important step towards achieving this ambitious challenge.

To engage investors, the state development bank of Poland, Bank Gospodarstwa Krajowego (BGK), took the initiative to establish the Three Seas Initiative Investment Fund (3SIIF). In the report, the IMF mentions the Three Seas Fund as one of "the several initiatives aim to address infrastructure needs in CESEE".

"The Three Seas Fund is the economic dimension of the Three Seas Initiative. The Fund is the most important financial undertaking in Central and Eastern Europe. We set a clear goal for the Fund – financial support for infrastructure investments in the region. Such support is especially important these days as economies struggle with the effects of the COVID pandemic. The initiator and co-founder of the Fund is the Polish development bank BGK. We established the Fund together with our partners from the Romanian development bank EximBank" – says Beata Daszyńska-Muzyczka, the 3SIIF Supervisory Board Chairperson and BGK President.

The Three Seas Fund’s main objective is to invest in transport, energy and digital infrastructure on the north-south axis in the Three Seas countries and to offset the regional development differences in the European Union. The Fund is a commercial and market-driven initiative that will grant a diversified investment and an attractive return.

The IMF team also state that, if done right, infrastructure investment could yield significant dividends in the region. More and better public investment can help repair the economic damage of the pandemic, raise potential output, and speed income convergence with the EU15.

"At this time of economic slowdown, its benefits could be even larger. We estimate that for each percent of GDP spent on infrastructure, the output could rise by 0,5-0,75% in the short run and by 2-2,5% in the long run" – the report reads.

iQIYI iCartoonFace Paper For Cartoon Character Recognition Accepted by Prestigious Multimedia Conference

Leave a comment

BEIJING, Oct. 16, 2020 — iQIYI Inc. (NASDAQ: IQ) ("iQIYI" or the "Company"), an innovative market-leading online entertainment service in China, is pleased to announce that its paper on face recognition and detection technology of cartoon characters (the "Paper"), titled Cartoon Face Recognition: A Benchmark Dataset, has been accepted by the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM)’s annual conference on multimedia (ACM Multimedia), a leading academic conference in the field of multimedia technology.

The acceptance of the paper indicates that the value of iQIYI’s iCartoonFace technology has further been acknowledged by the international academic community. Experiments showed that iCartoonFace design framework of the proposed benchmark dataset can effectively improve the efficiency and accuracy of cartoon character recognition. 

ACM Multimedia, the leading international conference in multimedia, focuses on advancing the technological research and applications of images, text, audio, speech, music, sensor and social media.

Rising to the challenges of cartoon character recognition

Although algorithms and applications of real human facial recognition have become increasingly mature, the development of cartoon character recognition technology remains in its infancy. Meanwhile, the scenarios requiring cartoon character recognition technology are growing rapidly as the animation industry booms.

Aside from video-oriented structured analysis, there is also robust demand for cartoon character recognition technology in image search, ad recognition and other use cases. However, as cartoon characters are more complex than human characters, they pose much greater technical challenges. Unlike human characters, who are fairly consistent in appearance, cartoon faces are far more varied in terms of color and texture as well as their potential for small inter-class differences and large intra-class variations.

A high-quality cartoon dataset is key to realizing technology breakthroughs and relevant applications of cartoon character recognition. However, most existing cartoon recognition datasets are riddled with issues such as data insufficiency and sound contamination. In the Paper, iQIYI’s team presents a new multi-character training framework for cartoons and real people. The Paper also introduces a semi-automatic dataset construction framework and the world’s largest cartoon character detection and recognition dataset with manual annotation — iCartoonFace. iCartoonFace contains over 400,000 high-quality real-scene images of over 5,000 characters. It can be applied to structured analysis, intelligent video-editing, image searching, ad recognition and even identification of satirical cartoons characters.

Currently, cartoon recognition technology enabled by iCartoonFace is being used in several of the Company’s innovative offerings and software development work. For example, iQIYI’s AIWorks feature supports the automatic collection of cartoon character elements and generates AI-enabled video mashups. The AI Radar ‘Qiguan’ feature allows users to identify cartoon characters when viewing animated content.

iQIYI drives innovation in pursuit of delivering optimal user experiences

iQIYI is dedicated to developing cutting-edge technologies and exploring the applications of new technologies in entertainment. In the last two years, the Company successfully held two multimodal video character recognition challenges which helped to significantly advance the accuracy of multimodal character recognition.

Most recently, IQYI partnered with the International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence and the Pacific Rim International Conference on Artificial Intelligence to hold the first large-scale cartoon character recognition competition in China. This competition attracted a wide range of talent, with 500 teams from top universities such as Peking University, Fudan University, Zhejiang University, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, and University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, as well as well-known technology companies such as Alibaba, Tencent, Baidu, JD.com and SenseTime. Looking ahead, iQIYI will continue to strengthen its research and innovation as it strives to constantly explore the next generation of tech-driven applications and experiences.

Beijing’s digital economy accounts for over half of GDP in 2019

Leave a comment

BEIJING, Oct. 16, 2020 — A report from China SCIO:

The digital economy of Beijing accounted for over half of the city’s GDP in 2019, the highest ratio in China, municipal officials announced on Thursday.

The total added value of the Chinese capital’s new economy last year, including new industries, new types of business, and new business models, reached 1.28 trillion yuan (US$190.4 billion), up by 57% compared to 2016, according to figures released at the National Mass Innovation and Entrepreneurship Week yesterday.

With the goal of becoming a national scientific innovation center, Beijing is accelerating its plan of building national labs, major facilities, and other national-level innovation platforms, said Tan Xuxiang, head of the Beijing Municipal Commission of Development and Reform.

He said Beijing is conducting the largest number of major science projects and is also dedicating the largest expenditures on those projects throughout the country.

In 2019, Beijing’s R&D spending accounted for 6.3% of its GDP, with over 15% channeled to basic research. The city has 132 patents for every 10,000 citizens, maintaining the highest ratio in China for years. Six COVID-19 vaccines developed by companies based in Beijing have been approved for clinical trials with three entering phase-3 trials. Seven COVID-19 test kits developed by companies in Beijing have been granted approval to market.

According to official data, 27,000 new tech companies, over 200 maker spaces, and more than 150 incubators and science parks in universities were set up in Beijing in 2019.

Palace Museum at 600: Old palace, new vitality

Leave a comment

BEIJING, Oct. 16, 2020 — A news report by China.org.cn on the 600th year of the Palace Museum:

 

This year marks the 600th birthday of the Forbidden City, a magnificent and majestic Chinese palace.

As the most important activity in a series of commemorative events, an exhibition titled "Everlasting Splendor: Six Centuries at the Forbidden City" is being held at the Palace Museum in Beijing. With more than 450 cultural relics and historical photos on show, the exhibition brings history to life, and allows visitors to better appreciate the cultural charm of the 600-year-old palace.

The Forbidden City was China’s imperial palace during the Ming (1368-1644) and Qing (1644-1911) dynasties. It was completed in 1420 and a total of 24 emperors lived and worked in the compound.

In many people’s eyes, the Forbidden City is both beautiful and mysterious. Its beauty lies in the palace complex being an extremely precious and magnificent artwork. Boasting more than 70 palaces of various sizes and over 9,000 rooms, the Forbidden City is one of the largest and most complete existing wooden structures anywhere in the world. A masterpiece of ancient architecture, the compound features a symmetrical layout, various glazed roof tiles, exquisite corner towers as well as bright and airy courtyards.

The Forbidden City is mysterious, because ancient Chinese philosophies were integrated into its design and construction, including harmony between human and nature, the Five Elements, Yin and Yang, as well as the Eight Trigrams. Previously off-grounds to all but the imperial family, the palace has an air of dignity which has deepened the mystery surrounding it.

However, the sense of mystery has gradually faded since the Forbidden City was transformed into the Palace Museum in 1925, 13 years after the last emperor abdicated.

The Palace Museum is now a world-renowned museum which houses more than 1.8 million artifacts. It is also the world’s most visited museum, receiving over 19.3 million visitors in 2019. In recent years, it has opened a coffee shop named the Corner Tower Cafe, attracting visitors to enjoy drinks named and packaged with "imperial" elements. Creative products inspired by aspects of the museum, such as cosmetics and folding fans, have gone on sale via e-commerce platforms. Court robes in the museum’s collection have appeared in mobile games. "Snowy scenes at the Palace Museum," "Cats living in the Palace Museum," and the names of TV shows featuring the museum are all popular search terms online. The Palace Museum has become a real "online celebrity" on the Chinese internet.

Many foreigners still refer to the Chinese palace as "the Forbidden City." In fact, that name is used less and less in China.

The Forbidden City is now known as the Palace Museum, or "Gugong" in Chinese. "Gu" means "old" or "in the past." Bearing witness to China’s history, the Palace Museum has to some extent shaped the mental world of the Chinese people. But nowadays, it has become a brand-new cultural symbol. Open and vigorous, the palace inspires more people to understand the Chinese nation from a new perspective and cherish the common treasures of mankind.
