Rishi Mehta, President & CEO of WAISL Ltd

The industry-leading solution was unveiled by the Honourable Union Minister of Civil Aviation, Ram Mohan Naidu Kinjarapu who praised the pioneering efforts of the Chairman and leadership of Rajiv Gandhi International Airport Hyderabad and their technology partners.

This is India’s first end-to-end fully integrated digital twin-powered APOC that covers the Terminal, Airside and Landside, integrating with over 40 modules and tracking more than 100 KPIs, capable of managing 40+ million passengers annually.

WAISL’s innovative APOC solution can significantly enhance the efficiency of Australian airports, reduce flight delays, and enhance passenger satisfaction. By integrating advanced technologies, the country’s airports can effectively manage large passenger volumes, optimise revenue streams, and lower operational costs, ensuring a seamless and efficient travel experience.

This deployment ushers in a new era in airport operations, offering predictive, prescriptive, and simulative insights and a comprehensive 360-degree view of the entire airport ecosystem. The solution leverages next-generation technologies like Digital Twin, Cloud Computing, Computer Vision, AI/ML, video, and Data Analytics.

WAISL had identified and established a key partnership with Kloudspot using their IoT technology for this solution. More recently, WAISL partnered with AWS to further evolve this solution and take it to other airport and transport clients globally. This was launched by AWS via press releases and at their prestigious Re-invent in Las Vegas a few weeks ago. 

“At WAISL, we are setting a new benchmark for airports worldwide. We don’t just innovate; we transform the boundaries of what’s possible. In the digital age, transformative impact stems not from technology alone but from its bold, strategic application to complex operational challenges,” said Rishi Mehta, President & CEO of WAISL Ltd.

WAISL’s digital solution is designed to deliver significant business advantages for airports. It  delivers real-time insights and an automated plan of the day that seamlessly integrates with all systems, predicts potential disruptions, analyses trends, and continuously learns from post-operative analysis for performance optimisation.

We want to clear the myth and quantify a real achievable business value and RoI to Airport Operators and CxOs who are in various stages of maturity with their APOC strategy. The WAISL digital APOC is one of the first to embrace Total Airport Management, Con-Ops, and IOT/AI/ML technology to drive end-to-end Digital Operations Transformation. This milestone underscores WAISL’s commitment to being a preferred digital transformation and innovation partner for airports and the larger aviation and transport industry worldwide,” said Preetham Kamesh, acting Global Chief Business Officer of WAISL Ltd.

The business value for airport operations by deploying the solution is derived by enhancing capacity with existing infrastructure, optimising non-aero revenue streams, and lowering costs through improved operational efficiency. The solution empowers airports to handle surges in demand with predictive and prescriptive analytics, ultimately delivering reductions in flight delays and boosting passenger satisfaction. It also provides a truly integrated experience that will fuel the next generation of airport operations, setting a new standard in the Australian aviation industry.

MiniTool Released MovieMaker 8.0 with Multi-Track Video Editing Features


VANCOUVER, BC, Dec. 11, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — MiniTool Software Limited has released the latest version of its video editing tool, MiniTool MovieMaker 8.0. The completely new edition rebuilds its timeline by supporting multi-track editing to optimize your video creating experience.

A Quick Look at What’s New in MiniTool MovieMaker 8.0

With MiniTool MovieMaker 8.0, now you can do the followings:

  • Enjoy multi-track editing with 9 video tracks and 2 audio tracks, making picture-in-picture (PiP) available.
  • Lock tracks to prevent unintended edits during your workflow.
  • Input values manually while editing videos, photos, audio, elements, texts, or transitions.
  • Use time scale to edit video frame by frame on the timeline.
  • Edit videos, pictures, texts, and elements directly in the player window.
  • Adjust the length of credits and title with ease.
  • Access walkthrough guide and video tutorials which is user-friendly for beginners.
  • Check the project information for a complete overview of your video.

Here’s an in-depth look at the exciting new features introduced in MiniTool MovieMaker 8.0.

Multi-Track Support Allows Freely Video Editing

MiniTool MovieMaker 8.0 now supports 9 video tracks (1 main track and 8 subtracks) and 2 audio tracks (1 main track and 1 subtrack) altogether, empowering you to create videos more flexibly. With these spaces and layers, you can decorate your videos with any combination of small video clips, beautiful photos, fascinating effects, natural filters, funny elements/stickers, dynamic motions, functional transitions, informational captions, vivid title/credits, as well as pleasant sounds/music. It’s a place where you can show your imagination and creativity.

With multi-track supported, you are able to create “complex” videos with easy steps. For example, you can make a picture-in-picture video by simply overlapping more than one video clip or picture within the same period. Therefore, viewers will see different images at the same time. Such kinds of videos are popular in video game commentary and vlogs. Making PiP videos catches up on the trends and brings you more viewers!

The new update also makes it easier to manage your tracks. You can lock tracks to keep them safe from accidental changes and add or remove extra tracks as needed. The main video and audio tracks stay in place, so you don’t have to worry about messing them up. It’s a smoother and more flexible way to edit your project using MiniTool MovieMaker 8.0.

Moreover, you can add effects, filters, elements, motions, and texts to the timeline where there are no video or photo added and save them into a video. Now you have better control over the timeline tracks than ever before!

Manual Adjustments Grants Precise Video Editing

In the new version of MiniTool MovieMaker, basic, color, audio, elements, transition, and text properties can be adjusted by inputting specific values. Exactly, you can manually type in values for video/photo rotate degrees, scale percentages, contrast, saturation, and brightness; audio fade in/out seconds and volume percentages; transition duration seconds; as well as text opacity percentages. All these enable a precise adjustment to your video components. Thus, you can get your specific needs satisfied in a shorter time!

Additionally, the newly added time scale makes frame-by-frame video editing possible. Just put your playhead at the target frame, then add your desired effects, stickers, texts, or sounds. Time scale is also very useful for splitting or trimming a clip. With it, you can precisely cut off unwanted parts, which significantly improves work efficiency!

Preview Window Offers Intuitive Video Editing

MiniTool MovieMaker 8.0 enhances the functionality of its preview window in the Player section. It permits you to directly edit your videos, photos, texts, and animated elements there. Therefore, you can resize, relocate, or rotate the video or photo on the screen while previewing the result in real-time. For texts and elements, you are able to change their sizes, locations, display angles and more. Editing video onsite provides a totally different creation experience!

Comprehensive Guides Enable Effortless Video Editing

MiniTool MovieMaker new version still offers humanized guidance. When you launch MiniTool MovieMaker for the first time, the walkthrough interface will appear, guiding you to create your video step-by-step, which is very friendly for beginners. You can re-access the walkthrough anytime from the top Help menu.

The Help menu now includes a new video tutorial portal, offering step-by-step instructions on video editing with MiniTool MovieMaker. Additionally, the online user manual is still available, providing detailed guides with screenshots for all features in MiniTool MovieMaker.

Miner Changes Optimize Video Editing Experience

When no clips on the timeline are selected, the upper right corner of the software displays the video project information, showing the project name, file location, resolution, frame rate, color space, and duration, giving an overview of the current video editing project.

Switch to the timeline area, when you can adjust the title and credits length on the timeline track. Simply drag the edges of the track, you can extend or shorten the duration of your video. Of course, you are allowed to specify their contents to meet your requirements, creating an attractive start and exquisite ending for a deeper user impression.

Besides, you are able to slide the split icon (scissors) on the playhead up and down to prevent it from bothering your editing process, enabling you to focus on what you are working on.

Additionally, you can see the duration of the clip on the timeline when your mouse hovers on it, no matter if it is a video, photo, audio, text, element, effect, filter, or motion. However, this does not apply to transitions. If you want to view or edit the duration of a transition, you can go to the Transition Property in the upper right section when the target transition is selected.

Lastly, you can adjust the timeline panel height to show more tracks you are editing, so you don’t have to scroll your mouse up and down to shift from one track to another. This brings convenience and saves time.

Hankyung.com introduces: MecKare, Leading the AI-powered Innovation in Health Monitoring Solution

– Leading efficient care management for the elderly with unimpeded smartcare

https://img.hankyung.com/pdsdata/pr.hankyung.com/uploads/2024/11/image01-1.png

SEOUL, South Korea, Nov. 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — JCF Technology is a startup that independently developed ‘MecKare’, a radar sensor that measures biological signals in a non-contact manner, and provides a platform service that automatically connects users and guardians in two-way emergency situations through an artificial intelligence analysis system. Since its establishment in 2016, it has developed a highly accurate non-contact multi-biological radar sensor through many years of technology accumulation, and succeeded in commercializing the product for the first time in 2021.

MecKare uses microwave radar and micro-Doppler signal processing technology to measure the user’s heart rate, respiratory rate, and skin temperature within 16.4 ft in real time. The sensor can measure human body movement patterns using precise and highly responsive thermal infrared rays and can detect falls through pattern analysis based on changes in human movement. In particular, the movement and change of thermal infrared rays within the measurement range are detected in real time, and the trend of biomarkers that appear as advance signs before a person falls can be checked through differential motion detection that measures the user’s movement pattern. It provides an alarm in advance by predicting before a person falls, enabling accuracy and quick response to accidents. As a result, it is possible to prevent safety accidents in the elderly by detecting emergency situations such as lonely death, cardiac arrest, breathing difficulties, and falls. Additionally, unlike other existing wearable devices such as smart watches or bands, MecKare does not need to be worn or attached to the body, so it can be used remotely via Wi-Fi without causing stress to the user.

https://img.hankyung.com/pdsdata/pr.hankyung.com/uploads/2024/11/image02.png

MecKare can be installed in the bedroom, bathroom, living room, or entrance of a home or facilities(Assisted Living, Nursing Home, etc) to provide 24-hour monitoring without a camera and detect abnormal signs in advance using a biometric information analysis algorithm and deliver them to the guardian.

MecKare’s radar biometric sensor is recognized in the global market for its technology as a device that obtains precisely customized biometric information while overcoming spatial constraints and without risk of privacy infringement. MecKare is being supplied to senior care facilities in Australia, Germany, Poland, Saudi Arabia, and China. In 2025, MecKare plans to conduct verification of vital signs such as attendance, fall prevention, and asthma of elderly people living in hospitals or assisted living in conjunction with local PPOs/HMOs in the United States.

In summary, MecKare is a system that reduces user inconvenience and enables management of multiple patients. By being able to provide personalized health data analysis results, it will serve as an opportunity to change the market paradigm towards preventive smart care. We expect MecKare’s A.I to play a role as an innovator that complements, rather than replaces, humans in care settings.

SINGAPORE, Nov. 13, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Shengshu Technology officially releases Vidu 1.5, marking the global debut of long-context capabilities similar to those in Large Language Models within its visual model, showcasing a new emergent capability. This is a major upgrade to its groundbreaking multimodal generative models. Vidu 1.5 introduces the world’s first Multiple-Entity Consistency capability, which seamlessly integrates people, objects, and environments to create stunning video effects—something that couldn’t be achieved, until now.

With Vidu’s Multiple-Entity Consistency feature, images with no relation to each other, be it characters, objects and even environments, can be integrated into a single video featuring all three characteristics. Moreover, the resulting generated video from Vidu 1.5 is capable of ensuring visual consistency even with complex inputs that require the processing of multiple subjects or environments – and this has not been possible until today. For example, if Vidu 1.5’s generated video features multiple entities, their unique attributes will remain distinct throughout the footage, instead of character traits that tend to blend or become inconsistent midway.

Multiple-Entity Consistency works by enabling users to upload multiple images—for instance, a photo of a person, an image of a rose detailed outfit, and also a shot of a moped. Vidu 1.5 will combine these images into a single continuous, fluid video featuring the person dressed in a rose-accented shirt, riding on a moped. Or by uploading two images of the same individuals alongside a photo of the pyramids, and using a prompt like “a man looking up at the pyramids,” Vidu 1.5 would seamlessly combine these elements, delivering a cohesive video that aligns perfectly with your expectation.

Taking it a step further, Vidu 1.5 also introduces Multiple Angle Consistency, a feature that allows you to either generate videos using any inputted images as references or by uploading three photos of a single subject. The model ensures visual continuity and fills in missing details, providing a seamless 360-degree view of the subject. The result is a cohesive video that accurately presents the subject from any angle, enhancing realism and dynamic storytelling. And this also applies to facial movements, accounting for a more natural-feeling continuity between subtle facial expressions.

Beyond presenting stronger character emotions, Vidu 1.5 also introduces Advanced Control. This enables greater precision over camera movements, angles, and cinematic techniques, of course without detracting from the visual consistency that would otherwise yield unwanted transitions or skipping between frames. In fact, advanced cinematography styles including adjustable dynamic ranges offer a higher degree of control over speed and scale resulting in complex shots like zooming, panning and tilting or a combination of these.

With Vidu 1.5, we’ve significantly enhanced detail generation and clarity at up to 1080p, bringing to life visuals like never before. For instance, you can now clearly see the intricate patterns on a cake or the vivid texture of a sizzling steak amid flames and oozing red juices. This level of detail transforms the storytelling experience, making every frame richer and more immersive.

Vidu 1.5 expands its appeal to animators and anime creators with Expanded Animation Styles, including Japanese fantasy and hyper-realistic styles. This upgrade caters to both casual creators of short-form content and professional filmmakers, delivering polished, production-ready videos with superior clarity and precision compared to other generative AI platforms.

The breakthrough in Vidu 1.5’s controls lie in major advancements Shengshu Technology has made in semantic understanding. The update offers more nuanced language comprehension, interpreting text prompts with impressive precision and enabling video outputs that better reflect complex storytelling and scene requirements. Last but not least, Vidu 1.5 generates a 4-second clip in just 25 seconds, showcasing Vidu’s ongoing advancements with improving the speed and accuracy of generating video.

“The future of content creation is here, and it is powered by the limitless possibilities of AI,” said Jiayu Tang, CEO and co-founder of Shengshu Technology. “Together, we can ignite a global wave of inspiration, reshaping industries, and democratizing creativity. At the core of this transformation lies the ability for anyone to engage in high-quality content production, unlocking new opportunities and breaking down traditional limitations.”
