CNN’s ‘Saved by the Future’ explores the cities of tomorrow

Leave a comment

HONG KONG, Nov. 18, 2020 — What will the cities of the future look like, and how will we interact with them? In the second episode of CNN’s new series ‘Saved by the Future’, host Nicki Shields speaks to experts in architecture, transport and technology to paint a picture of what urban life could look like in the decades to come.

CNN’s ‘Saved by the Future’ explores the cities of tomorrow

First, New York-based architect Charles Renfro speaks about the shapeshifting potential of future buildings. His award-winning firm, Diller Scofidio + Renfro, is behind New York’s moving building on wheels: The Shed. The 200,000-square-foot structure is designed to change in shape and size, by rolling its outer ‘shell’ back and forth – a move that takes little more power than a typical family car. Renfro explains that buildings in the future will need to be smart, sustainable, mixed use — and adapt according to the people that inhabit them, as their needs change over time. 

Next, we look at a historic industry that has connected cities across the world for centuries: shipping. Environmentalist Lucy Gilliam discusses how our demands of this industry have rapidly grown, and as a result, so too have its demands on the environment. A sustainable future is inevitable, she says, thanks to advances in electric battery power. CNN learns how this cleaner, greener energy source – which is already powering smaller vessels – has the potential to advance and power up some of the world’s largest machines.  

Finally, Shields speaks to Marcus East, a Technical Director at Google who explores how artificial intelligence may not only create smart cities, but smarter homes, and ways of life. East paints a picture of a typical day in the future, and how technology will be a part of it all — from the food we eat, to the cars we drive. Specialist industries are already capitalizing on this tech, as he points to rapid advancements in healthcare, empowered by AI.

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

SignOnSite is a personnel safety application used in construction, commercial, civil engineering, government, industrial, and utility sites. Proven in the field, SignOnSite has been used on more than 7,000 sites protecting 300,000 people. SignOnSite is designed to provide paperless management of workers on-site, including orientations, communications, and evacuations. With SignOnSite, managers get real-time visibility into their onsite workforce, including analytics for safety compliance and personnel management.

SignOnSite is headquartered in Canberra, Australia. For more information, visit www.signonsite.com.au.

Clarivate Delivers Litigation Data from Darts-ip Through CPA Global Innography

Leave a comment

LONDON, Oct. 15, 2020 — Clarivate Plc (NYSE: CCC), a global leader in providing trusted information and insights to accelerate the pace of innovation, announced today the integration of Darts-ip™ case law data with the Innography™ IP intelligence and analytics solution, to provide significantly enhanced strategic decision making across the IP lifecycle.


The integration follows the acquisition of CPA Global by Clarivate, and will see corporate IP departments and law firm customers benefit from multi-jurisdictional litigation data from 141 countries – covering millions of patent cases across 3,000 courts in Europe, Asia, and the U.S. The insights from big data analysis of more than 1.8 million patent cases will inform customers in their patent research, competitive intelligence, portfolio strategy, licensing, litigation, M&A due diligence, freedom to operate and more.

This is the third integration of Darts-ip into Clarivate products in under a year following the acquisition of the company:

  • In March 2020, Darts-ip global IP case data was integrated with CompuMark™. By adding trademark cases to the world’s largest trademark database, trademark professionals gained greater context for their most important decisions when building and protecting their trademark portfolio, including the litigiousness and history of a specific mark or owner across the full spectrum of trademark research solutions: screening, clearance and protection.
  • In July 2020, Darts-ip was integrated with Derwent Innovation™. The combined solution gave our customers greater context to support better, more confident decisions when building and protecting their IP portfolios. By integrating patent case data with Derwent Innovation, customers gained a more complete picture of potential obstacles with litigation history, allowing for easy assessment of immediate risks and opportunities, improved efficiency, accelerated decision making and reduced cost.
  • Now, Darts-ip has been integrated with Innography, connecting international litigation data and patent data with ultimate subsidiary and parent assignments to facilitate seamless analysis and provide a fuller picture across jurisdictions. The expanded offering will include enhanced definition of the industry renowned PatentStrength™ metric, to indicate the external strength of any asset in a portfolio, now updated to factor even more patent data from across the globe.

Jeff Roy, President, IP Group at Clarivate, said: "With all our acquisitions, including CPA Global and Darts-ip, it’s important for us to focus on immediately delivering value to our customers. This integration represents one of the most popular Innography requests from our customers. We’re listening, and we are hard at work helping our customers lower their total cost of doing business with customized packages and fully integrated solutions.  Today’s announcement is a terrific early indicator of how our customers will benefit from the combination of Clarivate and CPA Global, and we’re excited about what the future will bring."

"With the integration of Darts-ip into three Clarivate products in under a year following the acquisition of the company, we can now provide IP professionals with the opportunity to take a truly global deep dive into IP data, make smarter decisions faster and mitigate risks based on actionable intelligence. IP analysis plays a crucial role in strategic decision making and with these three integrations, customers will be better equipped to handle their next challenge, lower their total cost of doing business and seize new commercial opportunities."

SEOUL, South Korea, Oct. 9, 2020 — LG SIGNATURE is launching the latest chapter in its Master Story Series, a digital campaign that celebrates the skill, expertise and dedication of the brand’s high-profile ambassadors. This time around, the focus is on two of the world’s premier female golfers, Ko Jin-young and Park Sung-hyun.

To perform consistently and at the highest level in the sport of golf requires skill, talent and above all, commitment — attributes that Ko and Park possess in spades. LG SIGNATURE leverages these same qualities to produce its peerless products, which are coveted by consumers worldwide for their unparalleled quality, functionality, and style. The ideal ambassadors for LG SIGNATURE, Park and Ko share the brand’s unquenchable desire, and proven ability, to deliver the very best.

Ko Jin-young shares the focus and drive common to all professional golfers, but her style of play is distinctly her own. A huge part of Ko’s success is her meticulous preparation, and a finely honed ability to tune out all distractions whilst out on the course. After picking up her first professional victory at the 2018 ISPS Handa Women’s Australian Open, Ko went on to secure two LPGA majors the very next year: the 2019 ANA Inspiration and the 2019 Evian Championship, the latter of which is sponsored by LG SIGNATURE.

"Every course plays differently and there are so many variables to consider with each putt and each drive, which is why technique and consistency are so crucial," said Ko. "Patience, discipline, and above all, preparation — both physical and mental — are what allow me to repeat my swing and get the results I expect and demand of myself."

Famous for her majestically long drives, Park Sung-hyun has an instantly-recognizable swing that combines power and artistic grace in equal measure. Her distinctive technique generates incredible club head speed, sending the ball soaring far and high with a rhythmic precision that is immensely satisfying to watch. Park made her professional debut in 2017, outperforming more experienced players to capture her first LPGA major title, the 2017 U.S. Women’s Open Golf Championship.

"I like to think of golf as a form of art and I believe that comes across in my style of play," said Park. "Although skill and practice are obviously important to how you perform on the greens and fairways, so is creativity, and that’s where I feel I have an advantage."

Two of golf’s finest, Park and Ko embody the LG SIGNATURE commitment to excellence. The artistry and flawless technique they display at the world’s most prestigious golf courses is an apt metaphor for the beautiful aesthetics and advanced technology so elegantly intertwined in the brand’s immaculate appliances.

"All of our LG SIGNATURE ambassadors are the best in their chosen fields, and we are thrilled to unite with them to showcase what it means to be a master of one’s craft," said Kim Jin-hong, head of LG’s Global Marketing Center. "Reaching consumers around the globe, this digital campaign is a perfect way to communicate our brand philosophy and celebrate the skill and effort it takes to achieve true greatness."

Terminus’ AI CITY: The Cornerstone of Urban Digitization and the Pulse of Cities

Leave a comment

BEIJING, Sept. 25, 2020 — On September 23, the world’s leading smart service provider, Terminus Group, officially announced its AI CITY strategy in Beijing, the embodiment of Terminus Group’s experience gathered over the past five years, and unveiled the TACOS -Terminus AI CITY Operating System, for the first time.

Victor AI, founder and CEO of Terminus Group, together with Jonathan Woetzel, senior partner at McKinsey & Company and the director of McKinsey Global Institute, Bjarke Ingels, founder and creative director of Bjarke Ingels Group, oversaw the concept and strategy promulgation in this one of the most important grand occasions in AI CITY industry, and gave speeches on urban digitization and Terminus Group’s AI CITY solutions.

Cities are becoming bigger and denser in an era of unprecedented urbanization. At the same time, large-scale mobile digital layers exist atop these dense environments. Combining these two trends to better understand the city will lead to a great age of Urban Digitization, which can be used to help residents, businesses, and governments gain insights into how cities work. 

In response to the aforementioned trends and requirements, Terminus Group’s strategy has combined the hardware and software to further promote the OTA (Over the Air) city autonomous upgrade model reshaping the form of the city. As the core idea of Terminus Group’s AI CITY strategy, the city OTA describes an underlying system for urban interaction that can be constantly upgraded and modified remotely.

In the AI CITY, various solutions including smart communities, smart fire protection, smart security, smart finance and smart cultural tourism are all packed into digital layers that are ready to be deployed in upgrading the target industries, and they are all integrated into the city smart operating system TACOS. Being the essential parts of the city’s neural network, they could contribute to making the city brain even smarter. TACOS, the city hub, will be a collection and a distribution center for diverse information and instructions coming from the IoT devices spread around the city, and will help the city operators obtain instant information and make more responsive and optimal decisions.

Nowadays, the traditional notions of what a city can be and how it can best serve its citizens has been challenged by new game developers, planners, and designers

According to Victor AI, "Just like the invention of smartphone in the mobile network era and the vehicle networking inspiring the smart cars revolution, in the 5G+AIoT era, as the aggregation carriers of various vertical scenarios, and the most important supportive arm for the industrial economy, cities will also upgrade in the transformation from traditional mode to AI driven form. Definitely, Terminus Group is born for the new city form".

At this global press conference, Victor AI also introduced the CLOUD VALLEY, the world’s first AI CITY initiated by Terminus Group in Chongqing in April this year, which is also Terminus Group’s first achievement under the partnership with BIG and has directed path for the world’s AI CITY development.

With regards to Terminus Group’s AI CITY solutions, Jonathan Woetzel commented: "Terminus Group is the direction for the future development of China’s AI CITY industry. And going to step further, not just in China, the intelligentization of the city will fundamentally subvert the current model of urban infrastructure, and we firmly believe Terminus Group can accomplish this remarkable feat."

In Bjarke Ingels’ view, the cooperation with Terminus Group is a new journey for BIG to explore more possibilities of the future AI CITY, "We are excited to build an in-depth partnership with Terminus Group, as our two sides have the shared vision of creating spirited sustainable cities around the world."

At this press conference, Terminus Group also launched its "T-Plan", which is the company’s newest initiative aimed at recruiting the top talents specializing in AI,5G,IoT and cloud platform worldwide to back its global AI CITY ambitions.

The Mixtile Relay Switch does not require a neutral wire or a minimum load to work. Additionally, it eliminates many of the safety issues that installers are facing, such as light flickering and electrical leakage. The relay part adds connectivity to lights while the switch is an optional inclusion that bridges the relay and light switches for expanded functionality.

The Mixtile Wireless Relay Switch with a patent-pending design pursues improved safety and user satisfaction. An included overload protection can keep smart bulbs from overheating, blowing, or starting fires—further, the new design targets to solve poor connectivity, and energy wastage.

Focalcrest has achieved a relay switch design that is exceptionally compact to allow the installation of 2 or more Mixtile switches in any electrical boxes. The switch can support three-way and four-way switches, making it possible for consumers to remotely control smart bulbs while being able to use traditional light switches.

To fulfill its brand vision for a better smart home experience, the company made the Mixtile Relay Switch with minimum installation requirements. The design expands the scope of usage for the relay switch to include low wattage bulbs and LED lights, fluorescent bulbs, and rocker and rebound switch types.

Global user adoption for smart lighting has been on a sharp rise driven by the need for energy efficiency and convenience. Data by Allied Market Research shows that the smart lighting industry will reach $38.68 billion by 2026 with a CAGR of 20.5%.

"The Mixtile Relay Switch will change the paradigm of the smart home experience," says Martin, CEO at Focalcrest Inc. "With a new emphasis on safety and diverse performance, we will materialize the experiences integral for a smooth and modernized lifestyle."
