FIBA Global Partner TCL embraces girl’s basketball program ‘Her World Her Rules’

SHENZHEN, China, June 27, 2021 — TCL, a global leading intelligent technology company, officially announces that it has become the Global Promotional Partner of FIBA’s ‘Her World, Her Rules’ program ("HWHR"), showcasing its commitment to empowering women and girls worldwide. This cooperation opens a new chapter for the long-term global partnership between TCL and the International Basketball Federation ("FIBA").

In September 2020, TCL announced that it would extend its global partnership with FIBA to cover worldwide FIBA competitions from 2020 to 2023. The FIBA Women’s EuroBasket 2021 tournament from June 17-27 has fueled excitement about the return of FIBA competitions.

Women’s basketball has enjoyed significant growth in popularity in recent years but it still does not attract the same amount of attention as the men’s game. TCL strives to support the development of the women’s sport by bringing together basketball fans from around the world as part of the company’s growing global sports community.  "TCL is honored to contribute to the promotion of women’s basketball," Yuki Wei, Vice President of TCL said.

As part of its wider efforts to empower women, TCL has rolled out a global campaign called "Inspire Greatness" to showcase the greatness of women and to help women and girls to achieve more with their potential. The global promotional partnership with FIBA marks the start of this campaign, whose main aim is to increase the number of female players in the sport. TCL will continue to support the HWHR campaign to bring more talent and training resources that unleash the potential of the girls who take part.

FIBA Secretary General Andreas Zagklis said: "One of FIBA’s strategic objectives and key focus areas for the current cycle, 2019-2023, is Women in Basketball, with one of the goals of this priority to increase female players’ participation. This collaboration with TCL will further enhance the primary purpose of the Her World, Her Rules program and help raise the profile of the game and deliver women’s basketball to new audiences."

The Her World, Her Rules program is FIBA’s most recognized initiative in women’s basketball and is designed to unite women and girls across the globe. This program aims to promote women’s and girls’ basketball through various activities delivered in partnership with National Federations and increase the number of female players. Her World, Her Rules was initially launched in Europe during the FIBA EuroLeague Women SuperCup in 2018 and is supported by leading international players.

As one of the leading global intelligent technology companies, TCL also offers sports fans the chance to cheer on their favorite teams at the FIBA tournament through ground-breaking products. The TCL C825 Mini LED TV, the company’s second-generation mini-LED TV with Quantum Dot Technology, provides enhanced colors and a superior picture quality that improve the way audiences can enjoy live sports. TCL’s full smart home lineup help the sports fans to experience the immersive entertainment at home.

In addition to its cooperation with FIBA, as a world-leading brand in sports marketing, TCL sponsors other global sports events in basketball, soccer, cricket and horse racing, among others. TCL also partners with top sports stars to drive the globalization of the brand.

EonStor GS Supports File-level SSD Cache to Accelerate Random File Access Performance

TAIPEI, June 25, 2021 — Infortrend® Technology, Inc. (TWSE: 2495), the industry-leading enterprise storage provider, adds SSD cache technology into EonStor GS (GS) unified storage to considerably accelerate file access performance in enterprise applications characterized by high number of random file access operations.

EonStor GS is an enterprise-class unified storage enabling enterprises to manage file-based (NAS) and block-based (SAN) storage in a single device. With redundant controller design, multiple RAID hard disk protection levels and PB-level storage capacity, enterprises won’t have to worry about insufficient storage capacity and data loss. GS now supports SSDs acting as cache on its NAS storage service to improve file access performance. By caching frequently used data on a high-speed storage medium, subsequent client requests for accessing enterprise data can be served more quickly.

GS with integrated SSD cache is an optimal solution for applications involving random access behavior, such as file sharing, email, as well as media editing. If several users simultaneously access files and the required data bits are not located in adjacent sectors, traditional mechanical HDDs cause a longer seek time, resulting in a higher I/O delay, which in turn reduces system performance and negatively effects user experience. Thanks to SSDs’ near-zero seek time advantage, GS’s SSD cache reduces I/O latency and improves IOPS performance. High-efficiency algorithms intelligently predict and cache commonly used small blocks of data and metadata, improving GS’s access performance to random access data and elevating user experience to the new level.

"We added SSD cache to EonStor GS unified storage for accelerating file-level random access data. For general applications like office file sharing and emails, users can deploy one or two SSDs, while for media editing, which requires higher bandwidth, four or more SSDs are recommended," said Frank Lee, Senior Director of Product Planning.

BKSTEC Aims to Replace Consumer-grade Copper Cables by Lowering Cost of Fiber Optics through Automation

TAIPEI, June 25, 2021 — BKSTEC, a leading design and manufacturer of fiber optic cables for HDMI 2.0 and 2.1, USB 3 and 4, DisplayPort and more, with years of experience in delivering fiber optic solutions to OEM/ODM partners announces the world’s first automated production line for fiber optics, which lowers the cost of fiber optics to replace copper cables for current and future generations of HDMI and USB products.

In response to the growing market for high-resolution and high-bandwidth digital audio and video transmissions, demand for fiber optic cables with high-capacity, high-speed and stable transmission has increased. However, due to higher costs, proliferation of fiber optic cables has remained low until now.

Automation reduces production costs significantly
A group of engineers were determined to streamline the automation process and started the company, BKSTEC. After 5 years of trial and error with integration of semiconductor manufacturing processes and optical communication technology, BKSTEC has successfully developed the world’s first modularized automated production of HDMI fiber optic cables. Trial production begins in June of 2021 and phase one is expected to be completed by the end of 2022. The monthly capacity is expected to reach 50,000 units, and 250,000 units by 2023.

BKSTEC’s chairman Zheng-Xiang Chen, "Automation replaces the complex manufacturing of the manual process, which in turn increases production yields. Additionally, automation improves production efficiency through perception modules, AI learning and monitoring. The time needed for training, replication process and ramping up production will be drastically shortened."

BKSTEC has established partnerships with some of the biggest tier-one brands in the world and is at the forefront of leading-edge fiber optic solutions. The company current solutions include HDMI 2.1, USB 4.0, DisplayPort 2.0, USB-C 240W cables and extenders to offer the most advanced and complete OEM/ODM solutions.

4DLive: a real-time, bullet-time, multi-view video streaming service, to be expanded to global 5G mobile communication services

SEOUL, South Korea, June 25, 2021 — Korea’s 5G mobile communication service, the first commercialized service of its kind in the world, recently celebrated its second anniversary.

Korea has already established itself in the global market as a successful example of establishment of a 5G infrastructure that is outstanding in both quality and breadth of coverage. 5G is expediting fundamental changes in the telecommunication service paradigm and revitalizing the industrial environment through large investments. As a means of overcoming the economic hardships caused by COVID-19 and making Korea a leader in the era of smart automation, the Korean government’s Ministry of Science and ICT (MSIT) is proactively creating a "virtuous cycle" 5G environment (in conjunction with the Digital New Deal). One part of the MSIT is Born2Global Centre, which has played a crucial role in this transition by connecting Korean startups with various opportunities worldwide.

4DREPLAY, a promising Korean startup that has been a member of the Born2Global Centre since 2017, manufactures special 4D technology. It is becoming noted as a global mobile communication service for its successful expansion of technologies and projects from Korean 5G-based sports content (professional baseball, golf, and so on).

In April 2019, 4DREPLAY began providing LG UPlus, a top-tier Korean mobile communication company, with 4DLive (a real-time, bullet-time, multi-view video streaming service) via mobile app. 4DLive is an immersive media technology that allows users to freely view videos on mobile devices.

4DLive applied to 5G mobile communication services
4DLive applied to 5G mobile communication services

Based on this domestic success, 4DREPLAY signed a contract with Japan’s SoftBank in May 2020 to supply 4DLive to SoftBank’s 5G mobile communication services. (One of the services displayed by SoftBank during a presentation of its 5G services was using 4DLive). SoftBank, which began providing 5G commercial services via 5G smartphone in March 2020, merged 5G and 4DLive with sporting events (e.g. baseball). 5G can send large quantities of data at ultra-fast speeds and is therefore used to broadcast sports videos in real-time while employing creative formats (free time point, multi-view, etc.)

4DREPLAY has also applied 4DLive to the 5G mobile communication services of Bell Canada, Canada’s largest telecommunications company. In March 2021, an ice hockey tournament between the Vancouver Canucks and Montreal Canadiens was broadcast on TSN/RDS using 4DLive. These sports networks are owned by Bell Canada and are ranked among Canada’s largest sports channels (alongside Rogers Media Group’s Sportsnet and TVA Sports) since the foundation of TSN in 1984. 4DLive is currently featured as the "TSN 5G View/Vision 5G RDS" function on TSN/RDS’s mobile app.

4DLive is a mobile-based, real-time, 360-degree video streaming service. Videos of a subject sent from the many cameras installed in a sports stadium (filmed from various angles) via 5G network can be edited by the viewer via 4DLive to be zoomed in or out at the desired angle, rewound, or replayed in real-time. This technology is hailed as providing a revolutionary, unmatched viewing experience that goes beyond passive video viewing in favor of enabling the viewer to control the movements of the subject on the screen from the desired angle and at the desired time.

4DREPLAY’s bullet-time camera technology, 4DReplay (which is also used in 4DLive), is currently available worldwide for sports and entertainment events. The 4DReplay technology, which is used especially frequently in real-time "highlight" scenes for sporting events, allows the user to view videos of the subject from any angle thanks to footage filmed by scores of special cameras. Filmed footage can be edited, without rendering, and sent within five seconds—a significant advantage that makes 4DREPLAY perfect for real-time broadcasts.

Hongsu Jung, CEO of 4DREPLAY, said, "Many countries are starting full-scale commercialization of 5G services, which is resulting in global mobile communication companies seeking to fortify their 5G content. 4DLive, which allows the user to essentially take control of time and space by manipulating videos sent in real-time however that user chooses, will continue to give consumers around the world captivating, one-of-a-kind experiences that highlight all of the best features of 5G content."

Since entering the American market in 2016, 4DREPLAY has consistently been recognized internationally for its technologies, which are applied to/featured in broadcasts of many major Korean and international sporting events (MLB, NBA, PGA, UFC, KBO, etc.) and have become popular with sports fans worldwide.
