The first-ever Pudu cat-like robot put to use at a Canadian restaurant

SHENZHEN, China, Feb. 5, 2021 — Pudu Robotics’ BellaBot has recently been introduced to Sushi Island, a restaurant in Canada, as the most stylish addition to the restaurant’s waiting staff during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. This innovative robot server has been well received among the local community since its first day at the restaurant. A reporter from NTV visited the restaurant for an interview, and posted a video of how the robot worked there on Twitter, which got tens of thousands of views.

According to a worker at Sushi Island, the restaurant has experienced a sharp increase in its number of visits since BellaBot was adopted on January 17. The locals professed their love for the robot, and said that it was great to have her around for delivery.

BellaBot has been a great help in the restaurant’s effort to provide contact-less delivery during the COVID-19 outbreak. Manager at Sushi Island told the NTV reporter that no employees would be laid off because of BellaBot. She was introduced as a way to help servers, and make customers feel safer with less human contact during a pandemic.

Here is how BellaBot has been received by the locals.

"A few more jobs out the door"

"I bet no one lost their job for this but it provides better service experience to the customer, more business and more jobs."

"OMG! My kids watch Sam & Cat on Netflix and they have a restaurant with robot servers. This totally reminded me of that. My kids think this is super cool !"

"We were there on Saturday. Bella is a treat and was quite amusing to my children & myself. Way to go @sushiisland. Does not replace the human interaction at all, just allows for less physical contact."

"I am impressed. Can it sing?"

Employees at Sushi Island told Pudu Robotics that they posted a video showing the work of BellaBot on Facebook, and the popularity was unprecedented. As of January 24, only one week after BellaBot’s arrival, the video got 910 shares, 924 comments, and 433 likes, and these figures are still growing.

This cute, lovely robot cat is developed by Pudu Robotics, a world-leading provider of commercial robots. Notably, BellaBot is the one and only indoor delivery robot with a novel, cute cat face in Pudu’s robot family and even in the robotics industry. BellaBot is unique in that she is easier and more friendly to approach, both visually and tactilely, thanks to its multi-modal interaction that integrates visual, tactile, and auditory senses.

BellaBot can easily move, orient and navigate all by herself in highly dynamic and crowded environments. Equipped with intelligent induction trays, the robot can deliver food to 3 to 4 tables at a time. When she arrives at a table, the light strip beside the tray starts to flash, reminding the customers to pick up the food. After the food is taken off the tray, the light strip goes out, at which point the robot will move on to the next table.

In addition to the basic Delivery mode, BellaBot also comes with a Cruise mode, which is designed for the robot to move back and forth to deliver snacks or buffet food. In Cruise mode, the robot can walk around at the front door of the shopping center or the restaurant to help attract customers. BellaBot also offers a Birthday mode, in which she delivers birthday cakes accompanied by music blessings. Yes, she is also a singing robot!

Datawords and Whatsquare reinvent the customer relationship and the role of sales associates in a post-COVID world


HONG KONG, Feb. 4, 2021 — Datawords, the global leader in Multicultural Technologies, is proud to launch its new e-Sales Connect platform, designed to reinvent the role of sales associates and improve the customer experience online. Developed by its Whatsquare team in Hong Kong and based on an AI-powered customization engine, this new solution allows brands to better connect their online and offline ecosystems while empowering sales associates at brick-and-mortar stores, by offering the ability to provide personalized services to customers through messaging.

With the world of retail durably transformed by the impact of COVID-19 and changing behavioral patterns, the platform developed by Datawords / Whatsquare creates a direct link between a store-based brand expert and an existing or potential consumer at the onset of their online journey. As such, it’s an effective way for stores and corners to generate online traffic and vice versa.

In the context of restrained movements in many geographies, and of consumers reluctant to spend too much time in stores, the platform allows brands to optimize and leverage the expertise of their salesforce, thus extending and enhancing their advisory role through technology.

Specifically, the innovative platform built by Datawords / Whatsquare creates a bridge between physical stores and e-commerce, extending and enriching the shopping experience by allowing the customer to ask questions and the salesperson to propose adapted promotions and services—dependent only on the consumer’s engagement with the brand on social media (WeChat, Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, Instagram, etc.).

Based on a user’s location, the platform is able to suggest a nearby point of sale and link them to the salespeople in store, via a QR code system. The latter can then make customized purchase proposals by referring the consumer to an e-commerce site.

E-Sales Connect: our latest innovation to enhance customer service
E-Sales Connect: our latest innovation to enhance customer service

The platform has already been implemented with great success by Datawords / Whatsquare for major brands including BMW, L’Oreal, and L’Occitane.

Katherine Pei, co-founder of Whatsquare, explains: "We are very proud to add this new e-Sales Connect platform to our set of tailor–made multilingual solutions that enable data flows and conversational commerce between all messaging platforms, websites, mobile applications and now retail stores. Designed for retailers, our platform delivers personalized and enhanced customer service thanks to the combination of technology and expertise from the sales associates."

"In the current environment, our platform helps to animate points of sale while reinforcing the online/offline link and offering a practical solution to customers who wish to limit the length of their shopping trips while still benefiting from expert advice. On our side, we take care of the creation and maintenance of the platform, which is easy to roll out and duplicate. We are convinced of the potential of this solution, which has started to be implemented in Asia and can be applied to any type of retail store (from luxury to car distribution), anywhere in the world," adds Christophe Jourdain, Asia General Manager at Datawords.

About Whatsquare

Whatsquare creates tailor–made multilingual solutions that enable data flows and conversational commerce between all messaging platforms (including Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, LINE, and WeChat for different regions), websites and mobile applications. Designed for retailers and brands, it automatically recommends products, provides customer service and delivers personalized stories.

Soprano Design Launches First Whole of Government Communications Platform as a Service


SYDNEY, Feb. 4, 2021 — Soprano Design, a global leader in CPaaS (Communications Platform as a Service), announced today its Whole of Government communication solution tuned specifically to meet the needs of large government messaging and capable of spanning across multiple government departments and agencies to become the platform of choice.

The Australia-hosted platform is dedicated for government communications and will be available to Australia government agencies starting March 1, with plans to expand hosting into select countries globally during 2021.

For the first time, governments can consolidate their existing G2C (government-to-citizen) services onto a single communications platform to better engage with their citizens.

"As governments increasingly compete for citizen’s attention and trust, there’s an increasingly pressing need for siloed government departments to band together to leverage more powerful communication technology, allowing them to roll out more engaging programs and to communicate in ways that build trust," said Dr. Richard Favero, CEO and Chairman at Soprano. "This is truly the next frontier in government communications, because as citizens, we want to be engaged with our government and we increasingly expect our government services to provide us with more thoughtful and trustworthy information. Enterprises already know that mobile messaging now offers powerful interactive ways of building this trust, and we’re grateful we can begin to help governments with their mission to engage in meaningful ways with citizens."

Additional solution features include:

  • Available on the Australian Digital Marketplace – making it convenient for organizations to begin including sophisticated communications in their digital transformation process
  • Capabilities for the entire government body or on a dedicated individual department basis
  • Expertly secured and capable of being locally hosted for each corresponding government
  • A vast menu of off-the-shelf internal communications and intra-department applications, including a secure IP messaging capability with encryption and Common Criteria certification

The past year has made government officials worldwide acutely aware how every branch of their organization needs to send trusted communications as emergency scenarios of 2020 disrupted the status quo of proper and effective messaging. Given the shift of accelerated digital transformation in this sector, governments are reassessing how they can utilize common communication channels such as SMS, voice, email, WhatsApp and RCS to inform citizens regarding important announcements, daily appointments and reminders. This digital transformation pushes the confines and limitations of traditional approaches by government communication.

Soprano is a global enabler of government services worldwide and already powers some of the world’s largest government organizations’ communications needs. Soprano’s expansive services include integrating with applications commonly used in social services, tax, voting and tax organisations but also with postal services, utilities, healthcare and mental health services, education programs, tourism, and more. Specific government services enabled by Soprano depend on the region needs.

Soprano’s omnichannel enterprise mobile messaging platform helps government agencies around the world. The platform’s omnichannel capabilities give governments the ability to transform the way they interact and reach communities across all departments such as finance, transportation, public health, education and security.

The platform also offers a powerful secure IP messaging capability that can integrate with government services, allowing organizations to offer G2C secure mobile messaging in adherence with applicable compliance laws.

Soprano’s trusted mobile communication platform adheres to recommended best practices to provide a secure mobile messaging solution that can become part of a proactive IT security program, designed to minimise the risks and costs associated with service disruptions.

CUBRID launches CUBRID 11, Open Source DBMS for OLTP

SEOUL, South Korea, Feb. 4, 2021 — CUBRID is pleased to announce the release of CUBRID 11, the latest stable version of the CUBRID DB engine.

The CUBRID 11 focuses on performance improvement, new features adding, and security and convenience enhancement. In the meantime, CUBRID 11.0 license has been changed from GPL to Apache License 2.0, while CUBRID 10.2 or lower versions still adopt GPL v2 or higher license.

The main features of the newly released CUBRID 11 version are as follows:

  • Security Enhancement: By providing data encryption and packet encryption, CUBRID 11 improves security. This version prevents abnormal data loss by supporting table-based TDE (Transparent Data Encryption) and packet encryption between the driver and server.
  • Feature Enhancement: This version supports hash scan and improves the performances by up to 10 times in join query that could not perform index scans. By supporting the cache of search query results through hints, data change is minimal, and the performance of the workload with complex queries is maximized.
  • Administrator Convenience Enhancement: This version supports statement-based replication through hints on the HA environment, improving the replication time when deleting and updating a large amount of data. By separating the Java SP server from the DB server, the influence of the DB server is minimized from the start/stop of the Java SP server. In addition, the DDL audit function is provided so that DDL change can be tracked.
  • SQL Extension: This version extends various useful SQL functions such as RVC (Row Value Constructor) and REGEXP functions.

Along with features and performance enhancement, this new version has also expanded the license openness by changing the DB engine license to Apache license 2.0. Developers and users can use the CUBRID source code without any restrictions through this license change. CUBRID is looking forward to improving their product performance and strengthening their market competitiveness with the open source culture’s value and philosophy persistently.  

CUBRID 11.0 is available to download at www.cubrid.org/downloads.

– ARM, Factory Automation Company, Realizes AI-based Smart Factory –

KANAZAWA, Japan, Feb. 3, 2021 — ARM Co., Ltd. (ARM) has begun taking pre-orders for "ARMCODE1," which can fully automate NC programming by AI, from Chinese users.

Official site: http://www.armgroup.jp/en/index.html

Three biggest benefits of "ARMCODE1":

(1) Full automation of NC programming in the field of metal processing,

(2) A system of automatic quotation and machine status monitoring by mobile devices, which can accelerate digital transformation of small-lot production factories,

(3) ARM’s unique algorithm enabling highly accurate machining.

Photo3: https://kyodonewsprwire.jp/prwfile/release/M106467/202101280315/_prw_PI3fl_sUmJX04E.jpg

– Background for the birth of "ARMCODE1"

A few years ago, Takayuki Hirayama, founder and President of ARM, calculated the CNC machine utilization rate in his factory. He found that NC programming accounts for about 50% of the total processing time, and this process hinders productivity improvement at many SMEs, including his own company. By utilizing factory automation & processing technology cultivated in ARM, he has developed "ARMCODE1" in order to solve this problem peculiar to small and medium-sized parts manufacturers.

Photo4: https://kyodonewsprwire.jp/prwfile/release/M106467/202101280315/_prw_PI4fl_6kZM57J1.jpg

– Overview of "ARMCODE1"

Machining programs (G code/M code) are automatically generated by simply dropping 2D or 3D CAD data into the software-specified area. AI thereby selects the optimum machining conditions from thousands of types of tools and one million machining conditions, enabling high-precision machining. Characteristic functions of ARMCODE such as automated estimation and automatic calculation of the machine tool utilization rate also reduce the workload on the manager and help to thoroughly eliminate unprofitable work.

SKG launches its new F5 massage gun with hot compress

Portable, lightweight massage device, with embedded heating function make this the perfect Valentine’s Day gift

NEW YORK, Feb. 2, 2021SKG, an award-winning high-tech company specialized in developing massage devices, today announced the launch of its new massage gun, the F5 portable, lightweight massage device with embedded heating function. The F5 percussion massager, specifically designed for female, is the latest addition to SKG’s growing portfolio of massage devices designed for customers of various lifestyles and activity levels. This beautifully designed massage tool helps to target problem areas that are hard to reach and to aid the improvement of muscle inflammation and tension with deep muscle release. 

SKG F5 Mini Massage Gun
SKG F5 Mini Massage Gun

Massage is undoubtedly beneficial for people with varying activity levels due to the technology-driven lifestyle. On top of that, a range of present factors mean that effective muscle relaxation has never been more important: the financial and emotional tolls of the pandemic are severe, and hastily designed home offices lacking ergonomic rigor are the norm. Thus, offering a relaxing at-home massage to one’s significant other with the F5 massage gun will undoubtedly be an ideal Valentine’s Day gift idea for girlfriend or wife in lockdown.

SKG has a strong track record of building products that enhance relaxation, ease muscle tension and promote recovery. The company prioritizes design and customer experience. It has over 400 of patents on the market and the F5 is their latest iteration of this rich tradition. It’s a wonderful, on-the-go tool for recovery post exercise, alleviating muscle tension or simple relaxation.

"We designed the F5 to be beautiful looking and effective, but we really think its lightweight is the major differentiation," said Jack Liu, CEO of SKG. "It’s small enough to fit in a purse and to be used whenever and wherever it’s needed."

Highlights of the F5 include:

  • Look: The F5 is beautifully designed with a stylish pistol-shape, satin finish and gradient light. 
  • Portability: While massage guns are great after a sweat session, they shouldn’t be a workout to carry. The F5 weighs only 0.66 lbs – less than half the weight of the Theragun Mini – and can be carried anywhere. The handle of the product is designed to give customers an easy to hold grip.
  • First ever built in heat compress: In addition to the percussion therapy offered via the massage gun the F5 contains a heating mechanism embedded in the bottom of the gun’s handle to help loosen muscles. It has three levels of temperature 40, 48 and 53 degrees Celsius, and marks a first time ever that this feature is embedded in a device of this nature.
  • Noise and performance: Its 5V brushless motor and high-quality bearing allow for an almost silent massage, with three frequency levels of up to 3200 rpm and noise level lower than 45dB.

"While all our products go through rigorous testing and iterations, the F5 is perfectly aligned with both modern life’s hectic pace and the unique challenges COVID has brought. We created it to help our customers better cope with the challenges and improve their healthier lifestyles," said Liu.

The F5 massage gun is currently available for purchase on Amazon for $136. To elevate customer experience, SKG not only provides quality in-house customer service and but also supports options after purchase.
