Taking place off the West Coast of Wales over the first two weeks of September, the Hermes 900 was able to fly advanced Beyond Line of Sight (BLOS) missions into unsegregated and uncontrolled airspace, in full alignment with the UK Civil Aviation Authority (CAA). The success of these trials is a significant step forward in enhancing the capabilities of the MCA as they seek to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of its search and rescue operations while reducing the risk to MCA personnel in the field. Elbit Systems UK is closely collaborating with the UK Civil Aviation Authority, supported by additional UK companies, including Inzpire and Aviation Systems Group.

In the recent demonstration, the Hermes 900 equipped with search and rescue specific radar, an Automatic Identification System (AIS), EO/IR payload, an Emergency Position-Indicating Radio Beacon (EPIRB) and full satellite communications, was deployed on a range of missions that simulated shore-line rescues, water rescues in dangerous air space and long-distance ship rescues which crossed international air space lines.

With a wingspan of 15m, the 1.2 ton, Hermes 900 is already deployed with more than a dozen advanced customers around the globe providing search, rescue and reconnaissance capabilities. The Company offers extended life-saving capabilities with its recently launched Hermes 900 Maritime Patrol configuration with inflated life-rafts for detection, identification and saving the lives of survivors at sea. It was revealed that this configuration was delivered to an undisclosed customer in South-East Asia.

The Hermes 900 is perfectly equipped to deal with the needs of the Maritime and Coastguard Agency and we are proud to be able to support them as they continue with their vital, life-saving work."

Director of HM Coastguard Claire Hughes said: "We continue to do all we can to use existing technology as well as look to the future in our ongoing work of saving lives at sea. Remotely piloted aircraft continue to be a big part of that work both to potentially save lives in search and rescue and protect our beautiful coastlines from the worst effects of pollution."

Booming Demand for Innodisk’s CAN Bus Solutions Amid Pandemic and Autonomous Vehicle Trend

Leave a comment

Innodisk’s expanding CAN bus product line sees skyrocketing demand

TAIPEI, Sept. 11, 2020 — Innodisk’s CAN bus expansion modules are taking the world by storm. Unprecedented demand for autonomous vehicle technology amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and continued growth of industrial automation and smart healthcare mean that Innodisk’s industry-leading CAN bus solutions are in high demand.

Sales Doubled in 2020

Innodisk’s long-standing expertise in industrial markets and its commitment to CAN bus innovation have made it a key supplier to innovators – large and small – in the autonomous vehicle, automation, and medical markets. As a result, Innodisk’s CAN bus product line sales nearly doubled in the first half of 2020, with unit sales in that period already surpassing full-year sales in 2019.

Innovations Tailored for Autonomous Vehicles

Modern autonomous vehicle systems depend on many sensors in lidar, radar, and camera systems for autonomous navigation in diverse roadside environments. This large number of sensors requires that the vehicle controller system is equipped with enough CAN bus ports.

Innodisk designed its new four-port M.2 to CAN bus expansion module (EGPC-B4S1) to address this demand. The expansion module provides vehicle controller systems with four additional CAN bus ports per card, satisfying autonomous vehicles’ growing demands for CAN bus ports and giving manufacturers new opportunities to innovate.

Industrial-Grade CAN Bus Expansion Designed for the Future

The new Innodisk EGPC-B4S1 CAN bus module launches in the third quarter of 2020 and joins the two-port M.2 and mPCIe to CAN bus expansion modules in Innodisk’s growing CAN bus lineup. Higher-level protocol support for SAE J1939 and CANopen launches for EGPC-B4S1 in Q4 2020 and is already fully supported in Innodisk’s existing CAN bus modules.

Innodisk’s CAN bus expansion modules are designed for industrial applications, featuring support for extreme temperatures (-40 degree Celsius to 85 degree Celsius), electrostatic discharge protection (air: 15 kV, contact: 8 kV), as well as 2 kV HiPot protection – bringing CAN bus innovation to any industrial application.

About Innodisk

Innodisk is a service-driven provider of flash memory, DRAM modules, and embedded peripheral products for industrial and enterprise applications. With satisfied customers across a range of demanding industries, we have set ourselves apart with a commitment to exceptional products and service.

SpeakNow will be able to have English conversation with tutors of various origins and genders depending on the learner’s taste, and models and public figures who have recently become a hot topic will soon be updated as AI tutors.

MoneyBrain recently announced that it wanted to provide a safe environment for anyone who has difficulty learning English due to limited face-to-face education with Covid-19, and developed SpeakNow to allow anyone from beginners of English to high-level learners to use the 365-day English conversation service.

Despite the economic downturn caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, Pac Technologies pushed for the completion of PacPay, gearing up to meet its goal to launch the digital payment platform in the last quarter of the year.

"The global landscape of payments is witnessing unprecedented growth. This is an incredible opportunity for us to enter the regional market.

MBZUAI extended admission offers to 101 students from 31 countries for the first academic year commencing in January 2021. Initial plans were to accept 50 students, however due to the impressive number of applications received, the decision was made to extend admissions offers to more students. Of these students, 82 have been offered admissions in the University’s MSc programs in Computer Vision and in Machine Learning, while 19 have been selected for MBZUAI’s PhD programs in the same fields.

Students in the first cohort come from across the world; 34 per cent of admitted students come from the Middle East, 38 per cent from Asia, 21 per cent from Africa, and nearly 10 per cent from the Americas and Europe. 

There will also be a strong female representation in MBZUAI’s first academic year with women comprising 30 per cent of admitted students. 

Admitted students have received education at some of the world’s leading universities, including prestigious institutions such as the National University of Singapore, University of Melbourne, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Purdue University, University of York, University of Minnesota, Queen’s University of Belfast, Arizona State University, and Khalifa University in the UAE.

the Shonet where you can Shop and Earn

Elisabeth Kurniawan, CEO of the Shonet Indonesia, explains that one of the ways to move the national economy is through digital transactions. Therefore, on August 18 the Shonet launched a share and earn service for users to purchase as well as get the opportunity to earn commissions.

"Using a referral system, consumers will get a commission every time they invite their friends to buy products that are in the Collection feature which they have created. The clothing collections and/or beauty products which consumers share with their friends are the official product collections from brands that have joined to become partners at the Shonet," Elisabeth said in her official statement, today.

The Shonet uses an affiliate program to power the social commerce ecosystem. If the Shonet customer invites other people to shop at the Shonet, he will get a commission instantly. The sales commission can even be cashed out right away. That way, the more friends are invited to shop at The Shonet, of course, the more commissions they will receive.

For shipping and payment services, the Shonet has collaborated with the best logistics players in Indonesia such as Ninja Xpress, SiCepat Ekspress, and Paxel. The presence of the Shonet is also a path for the fashion and beauty industry to survive the COVID-19 pandemic, where people’s mobility is limited.

"It has become our mission to create a platform that can support the local fashion and beauty industry through our community. In this challenging time, it is not only we can together improve the digital economy through our platform but also improve the brands that have joined to continuously increase their sales," added Elisabeth.

Despite the surge in transactions, the Shonet still applies strict curation to brands that are willing to join. One of the considerations is measuring consumer interest in buying these products. For beauty products, the Shonet ensures that it has obtained BPOM permission so that its authenticity and safety are guaranteed.

As information, on August 18, theshonet.com launched social commerce which is also a part of celebrating Indonesia’s independence day. The event was supported by several brand partners who are members of theshonet.com, such as Hush Puppies, Noche, Noir Sur Blanc, the Bath Box and many more.

As of July 2020, there are more than 3 million users with 500 fashion and beauty brands that are members of the Shonet ecosystem. Several big brands, both local and international have also joined as partners, including the Bath Box, Noir Sur Blanc, Casio, Noche, Hush Puppies, Rinda Salmun and many more.

Elisabeth said that every week, there are the addition of 30 new brands, and will continue to grow in the future. With a specific target audience and social activities in it, she is optimistic that every brand incorporated in it will grow positively even in the midst of difficult situations.

"The more brands that join, the more we empower SMEs to grow, along with the more we can help our users earn income, we can grow stronger together," she concluded.
