It’s the industry’s highest resolution 3D camera with realtime streaming of processed images over ethernet or USB connections that makes it ideal for use in robotics, logistics, manufacturing, retail, healthcare and fitness solutions.

The depth camera uses Microsoft’s industry proven ToF technology for precise scene understanding over a wide 120 degrees field of view and a broad range from 0.25m to 5.5m. The 1 mega-pixel depth camera is complemented by a high performance 4K resolution RGB camera with 90 degrees’ FOV.

A built-in Nvidia Jetson Nano is used to run advanced depth vision algorithms to convert raw data to precise depth images. This eliminates the need for an external PC or compute device.

The camera can be directly connected to servers or the cloud using the Power over Ethernet (PoE) connection for both data and power. The device also has USB-C 3.2 and DC power supply connectors. A 6DOF IMU module provides orientation. The universal trigger control system provides accurate frame synchronization and uses standard ethernet cables for multi-camera and multi-sensor networks. The SDK enables easy setup and registration, and a rich set of APIs allows integration with various applications.

“Orbbec’s Femto Mega extends the use of Microsoft’s depth technology, used in Hololens and Azure Kinect DevKit, to a broad range of industrial applications,” said Jon Yee, Microsoft. “This camera is a result of a close collaboration between our teams and will be an essential tool helping AI developers to add depth perception to computer vision”.

“Our large scale cargo digitization solution is built using Microsoft’s Azure Kinect and Azure and is commercially deployed in Singapore. It is also in commercial trials for flight capacity optimization and digital handling at multiple international airports”, said Dr. Suraj Nair, CTO, Speedcargo Technologies, Singapore. “Orbbec’s Femto Mega enables us to maintain compatibility with our current system while reducing the size, cost and complexity of our solution. This will enable ease of scaling our operations to new locations”.

“Orbbec has been Mintt’s 3D vision partner for its fall detection and prevention solution”, said Eric Krzeslo, CEO, Mintt. “With its new advanced sensors such as the Femto Mega’s integrated approach Orbbec is helping us accelerate and improve our product roadmap.

Leave a comment

Binary Haze’s latest epic tale showcases additional cast, characters, and battle system

TOKYO, Jan. 27, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Redemption Reapers, the dark fantasy tactical RPG developed by Adglobe and published by Binary Haze Interactive (ENDER LILIES: Quietus of the Knights,), prepares to ambush evil with a launch date/time set for Wednesday, Feb. 22nd 2023 7am Pacific time on Steam for Windows PC, PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch.

Backed by a formidable battalion of AAA industry veterans, Redemption Reapers is an original story created by director Hiroyuki Kobayashi (Producer – ENDER LILIES: Quietus of the Knights), with game balance design courtesy of tactical RPG veteran Masayuki Horikawa (Series Director – Fire Emblem, Planning – Kingdom Hearts III), Tomokazu Fukushima (Scenario – Metal Gear Solid, Freedom Wars), and Rei Kondoh (Music – Bayonetta Series, Fire Emblem Series).

An all-star voice cast brings the world to life, including Alejandra Reynoso (Castlevania, DOTA 2), Jason Spisak (Arcane, Teen Titans Go!), Kyle McCarley (13 Sentinels: Aegis of Ruin, NieR: Automata), Allegra Clark (Apex Legends, Dragon Age: Inquisition), David Lodge (Persona 5, Final Fantasy XV), and Caleb Yen (Squid Game, Triangle Strategy, Attack on Titan).

Only the faintest glimmer of hope remains as the menacing Mort army slaughters all in their path, and a once-despised group of mercenaries becomes the only defense against total annihilation. Command humanity’s last stand against evil, the Ashen Hawk Brigade, and fight for redemption against brutal foes utilizing strategic team tactics, surprise attacks and weapon synergies.

Precisely plan the Brigade’s every move through war-torn villages, castles and snowfields to flank the ruthless Mort with perfect positioning. Deploy each warrior according to their strengths and abilities, mastering ranged, melee, and stealth tactics. Unleash special abilities to give the Ashen Hawk Brigade an edge during battle. Sacrifice maximum damage for stick-and-move mobility with special skills such as the “Butterfly Sting,” and knock enemies off balance with attacks thrown in the “Staggering Stance.”

Upgrade and outfit the Brigade with weapons and items earned after victories and forge relationships between team members through the bond of battle. Unravel the personal stories of each Ashen Hawk member and make in-game dialogue choices impacting the relationship between fellow warriors.

“Redemption Reapers‘ clever combat mechanics complement a gripping tale during wartime struggle,” said Hiroyuki Kobayashi, CEO, Binary Haze Interactive. “We look forward to watching our players explore this saga and experiment with creative tactics to secure victory on February 22.”

Redemption Reapers will launch on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and Steam for Windows PC on February 22, 2023 for €49.99 in Europe and equivalent price in each region, with Japanese, English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, Chinese (Simplified & Traditional), and Korean-language support, and voiceover options in English and Japanese.

Communicators Make Historic Strides in C-suite Impact

Leave a comment

Nearly half (47%) of global survey respondents now report directly to the CEO

CHICAGO, Jan. 27, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Cision, a global comprehensive consumer and media intelligence and communications platform, today released its 2023 Global Comms Report: A Seminal Moment in partnership with PRWeek, highlighting an overall elevation of the role of strategic communicators within C-suites across the globe, with nearly half now reporting to the CEO. The sixth annual report examines the positioning of strategic communications professionals outlining feedback from 440 industry professionals across 10 countries about their performance and sentiment.


The report showcases how recent global unrest from COVID, the Great Resignation, the war in Ukraine, and racial justice movement, have accelerated the evolution of the relationship between CEOs and communication teams. Communications professionals are moving into the C-suite with nearly half (47%) now reporting to the CEO directly, a stark contrast from 2020, in which 57% reported communications was part of marketing. Despite the challenges, 58% describe themselves as “optimistic” about the position of communications in relation to the C-suite heading into 2023 in the U.S.

“The bar for strategic communications has been raised, and the industry is ready to rise to the challenge. Communications teams must be able to demonstrate their value to organizations utilizing data analysis, artificial intelligence and human expertise,” said Putney Cloos, Chief Marketing Officer of Cision.

“The numbers clearly show the C-suite not only understands and respects PR’s value as a business mover, but it actually expects communications to deliver in ways it never has before,” said Gideon Fidelzeid, Editorial Director at PRWeek. “Of course, with great accomplishments come greater challenges and responsibilities, but I’d put my money on PR and the brands they support thriving in this new era of communication.”

Additional Takeaways:

  • Global Growth: More than four times as many respondents say their teams are bigger compared to last year.
  • Bullish Budgets: Nearly 68% of respondents report budget increases from last year and nearly 67% expect increases next year.
  • Social Media: Reliance on both earned (48%) and paid (47%) segments has increased the most year on year.
  • Content Challenge: Key tasks like aligning metrics to revenue (50%), converting data into actionable insights (50%), and overreliance on media impressions (49%) are the top areas where respondents globally continue to struggle.

Corrected Press Release

Please note the following corrected press release. A previous release sent on January 17 contained incorrect or outdated information.

ST. GEORGE, Utah, Jan. 26, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Health in Transportation, a health and wellness solution provider for the transportation industry, released a revolutionary preventative health tool for drivers called CDL Health Scanner.

Accessed through a specific URL on a smartphone, CDL Health Scanner’s proprietary technology uses a smartphone camera to scan an individual’s face and analyze key vital signs. This unique, driver-centric system uses revolutionary technology from NuraLogix, called Transdermal Optical Imaging (TOI)™, in which a conventional video camera is used to extract blood flow information from the face. Risk factors for hypertension, type-2 diabetes and more are revealed to the individual user on an easy-to-interpret results page.

“It’s an exciting day for the transportation industry,” said Bob Perry, president of Health in Transportation. “For less than the cost of a couple coffee drinks, this new smartphone app will provide health information to drivers, potentially salvaging thousands of driving careers. Our partnership with NuraLogix is dedicated to bringing innovative solutions to directly impact the driver shortage and help keep America’s professional drivers on the road instead of being sidelined due to bad health.”

This new, confidential CDL Health Scanner was developed specifically to protect drivers. With the transportation industry experiencing a shortage of close to 80,000 drivers each year– along with the fact that putting a new driver behind the wheel often involves a five-figure expense for the carrier–thousands of skilled drivers are disqualified from driving each month due to poor health outcomes.

CDL Health Scanner not only alerts drivers of potentially serious health concerns, but it also provides health education focused on the driver and guides them toward resources that can assist with lifestyle changes. Often, drivers are completely unaware of some of these underlying medical conditions, and CDL Health Scanner aims to bring awareness to these important metrics. The app provides support for drivers who may be at risk by providing them with the nearest location of one of the six thousand Higi health check stations.

CDL Health Scanner can be purchased by visiting www.cdlhealthscanner.com.

About Health in Transportation
Health in Transportation (HIT) provides innovative and practical health and wellness solutions for professional drivers in trucking and mass transit. For almost forty years, their programs have helped thousands of drivers avoid medical disqualification with unique coaching mechanisms that drivers can utilize even while they are on the road. Known as ‘The Trucker Trainer’ by professional drivers nationwide, Bob Perry, president of HIT, brings a very distinctive perspective to the issue of a driver’s health and life expectancy. He comes from a family of professional drivers and has spent decades working on driver health initiatives.

OutSystems Named a Leader and Positioned Highest for “Ability to Execute” in 2023 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Enterprise Low-Code Application Platforms

Leave a comment

Recently recognized as “Customers’ Choice” in the 2022 Gartner Peer Insights™ Report1, OutSystems is named a Leader in the Magic Quadrant for the sixth consecutive time

SINGAPORE, Jan. 25, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — OutSystems, a global leader in high-performance application development, today announced it has once again been named by Gartner, Inc. as a Leader in the January 2023 Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Low-Code Application Platforms (LCAP). In its sixth consecutive time as a Leader2, OutSystems was positioned highest on the vertical axis for “ability to execute”  based on its product/service, sales execution/pricing, customer experience, market responsiveness/record, overall viability, marketing execution, and operations.

Low-code development continues to see high adoption growth due to demands for greater velocity in application delivery across large and midsize organizations with extreme engineering efficiency, continued scarcity of tech talent, and growing hybrid or borderless workforces. “LCAP continues to be the largest segment of low-code and is expected to reach $18.2 billion by 2026 at a CAGR of 23.6% from 2021 through 2026″.3

“The demand continues to intensify for new and superior apps that drive efficient operations and improve the bottom line. Faced with complex legacy systems and limited resources, development teams need an open platform that helps accelerate their pace of innovation for new customer experiences, services, and integrations,” said Paulo Rosado, Founder and CEO of OutSystems. “OutSystems is changing the way software is built through high-performance application development. Along with our platform, we’ve built one of the industry’s most robust ecosystems of low-code-specific app components to help all teams build exactly what their business needs now, with the power to rapidly evolve and innovate for the future.”

Unlike other vendors in the market, OutSystems enables a high-performance software development approach, which elevates the performance and productivity of development teams so they can build applications of any complexity or scale. The company’s evolutionary approach to software development also gives customers the power to continuously evolve, integrate, and extend enterprise-grade applications to address new business demands and opportunities.

In addition to the January 2023 Magic Quadrant, OutSystems was also recognized as the “Customers’ Choice” in the March 2022 Gartner Peer Insights “‘Voice of the Customer’: Enterprise Low-Code Platforms” report, based on user reviews and feedback. Since the launch of the Peer Insights platform, users have shared more reviews (more than 700 reviews and counting) of OutSystems than of any other enterprise low-code vendor, with an overall score of 4.5/5 stars as of 11th January 2023.

“The role of the IT leader has never been more difficult. The backlog of applications continues to grow and teams simply don’t have the time or resources to keep up,” said Pete Peterson, CTO of Riviera Partners. “I have used OutSystems at three different organizations, and each time, it was the catalyst for transformation. My teams and I have built strategic apps at a rapid pace while delivering exceptional value and saving millions of dollars in production costs. This is not a regular low-code tool, it’s a platform for innovation.” 

“We live in a world that requires our digital solutions to grow with our mission, to quickly extend value as opportunities arise, and to meet our constituents in a personalized and modern fashion,” said John Rathje, Vice President and CIO, Division of Information Technology, Kent State University. “OutSystems provides us the development platform to quickly turn ideas into value, and it meets our goals for a sustainable and extensible solution architecture.”
