Xovis Multiplies Your Options in One Fell Swoop

Two new AI features for in-store analytics made possible by Xovis 3D sensors

ZOLLIKOFEN, Switzerland, July 2, 2020 — When their ordinary "all-in-a-day’s-work" became extraordinary, Xovis ramped up their R&D to solve unforeseen challenges. Today, the company proudly presents two new AI features for their 3D people counting sensors: Face Mask Detection and View Direction. While View Direction had been hinted at in January this year, Face Mask Detection has sprung up out of the current situation with COVID-19. Xovis hopes that this will help their customers stay on top of public health regulations. The company’s innovative and GDPR compliant technology becomes the only kind to detect face masks directly on 3D sensors.

As Xovis Head of Retail Anne Wyder explains, "COVID-19 has made face masks compulsory in many public places; we have responded by developing a new AI feature for our sensors to recognize whether or not face masks are in fact being worn. In a bid to help businesses adhere to public health regulations, this new software plugin for Face Mask Detection will be free of charge until the end of the year for our integrator partners working with the Xovis Cloud Account." 

Despite COVID-19, and at the same time because of the global crisis that has ensued, Xovis is actively providing technological solutions for both occupancy and physical distancing management. As Xovis CPO Christian Studer puts it: "We have been busy – we’ve not only finished development of the much-anticipated View Direction plugin for in-store analytics, but in an agile response to changing market demands also stepped up to the plate and created something extra in our firmware for our customers. Both Face Mask Detection and View Direction features provide deeper insight into customer behavior – the analysis of which has become more important than ever before."

As the undisputed innovator of people flow technology based on 3D stereovision sensors, Xovis is committed to bringing the best products and services to customers and partners alike. Because people count.

4ARTechnologies is the first Startup to fulfill its ICO promises

With the placement on the exchange, 4ARTechnologies is the first company in the world to have successfully completed an Initial Coin Offering (ICO) with an existing product and whose cryptocurrency is listed on a trading exchange with a stable value.

The 4ARTcoin is the world’s first cryptocurrency for the art world. It will enable transactions between all art market participants, maximizing security and eliminating transaction or exchange losses. The digital currency further supports the digitization of the global art market, which was accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic, and the shift of trade to borderless online platforms. In addition, customers of 4ARTechnologies can pay for services within the 4ARTapp using the 4ARTcoin and receive a 20 percent discount.

Since the demand for the 4ARTcoin will increase with the expanding use of the 4ARTapp in the art market, financial experts expect the value of the cryptocurrency will only become higher in the long-term. Currently, the 4ARTcoin can only be purchased and traded by investors on the BITTREX Global exchange.

Körber Unveils Next-Generation Sorter for Supply Chain Automation


Körber Crossbelt Sorter enhances depth and breadth of supply chain solutions with complete materials handling portfolio

HAMBURG, Germany, July 2, 2020 — Körber, the global supply chain technology leader from software to materials handling automation, today unveils the Körber Crossbelt Sorter. The latest addition to Kӧrber’s portfolio empowers businesses to create truly unified automation solutions to excel in today’s increasingly complex supply chain landscape.

Supply chains must handle more products, more suppliers and fulfill through various channels. Consumer expectations for choice, convenience and speed add to this complexity. To maintain a competitive edge, businesses need automation technologies to handle the evolving challenges of ecommerce and fast moving consumer goods (FMCG). However, many businesses lack a solid strategy and struggle with implementation, integration, and costs. Kӧrber overcomes all of this.

"Kӧrber has the goal of strategically aligning our supply chain technologies and expertise to the needs of our customers and the industry," says Stephan Gӧttsche, chief executive officer at Körber Supply Chain – Automation. "The Körber Crossbelt Sorter exemplifies this. One in three companies still manages supply chain processes manually. This is one of many initiatives we are taking to expand our portfolio and capitalize on our 30+ years of expertise in system integration to design automation systems for today and tomorrow’s demands."

The Crossbelt Sorter seamlessly integrates with any materials handling equipment (MHE) to create unified automation systems. Be it conveyors, shuttles, or beyond, the Crossbelt Sorter uniquely links the MHE of different functional areas – receiving, storage, multi-stage picking, or dispatch. Hence, the Crossbelt Sorter dynamically distributes goods based on any criteria to the proper destination at any stage in the process. Furthermore, the sorter’s modular design enables quick and simple integration with the existing system landscape. The result is a higher level of automation, enabling shorter reaction times, increased efficiency and higher throughput. Examples of success include transport of up to 14,000 containers per hour, carrier changeovers in only 10 minutes, and conveying speeds of 1.8 m/s.

"Conquering today’s supply chain complexities requires higher levels of automation," said Pieter Feenstra, chief sales officer for Kӧrber Supply Chain –  Automation. "Intelligently linking different material handling components is necessary to excel in today’s market. Körber offers the consulting, the solutions, the software and systems integration to make it a reality for businesses of any size."

Compuware Mainframe DevOps Integrations Further Automate Shift-left Testing

Integrated Test Data Management and Automated Testing Ensures Test Data Consistency, Accuracy and Security

DETROIT, July 1, 2020 — Compuware Corporation, a BMC company and the leading provider of software for mainframe DevOps, today announced new capabilities that further automate and integrate test data and test case execution, empowering IT teams to achieve high-performance application development quality, velocity and efficiency.

The new integration tightly couples the Topaz for Enterprise Data solution with the Topaz for Total Test solution enabling test data setup to be directly embedded into automated testing. By further automating shift-left testing in the Autonomous Digital Enterprise, teams can ensure test data consistency, accuracy and security.

Business demand for faster innovation is putting pressure on IT organizations. According to a recent survey1, 85 percent of organizations find it difficult to deliver innovation faster without compromising quality, security, customer experience and operational efficiency. Test automation is cited as the single most important factor in overcoming these risks.  

“The collective efforts to build quality into software as early as possible is one of the biggest and most important changes I see in the industry,” said Gary Gruver, digital transformation author and consultant. “It is also frequently one of the most difficult due to all the challenges with coordinating and automating code changes, test case changes and test data. It’s good to see Compuware addressing this need.”

The lack of test automation and easy access to good test data is holding organizations back from necessarily improving mainframe software quality, velocity and efficiency. The Topaz for Total Test and Topaz for Enterprise Data integration empowers teams to:

Improve test consistency. Continuous automated testing requires consistent test data. Improper test data can lead to inconsistent or incorrect test results, wasted time troubleshooting errors, or worse, the introduction of bugs. With the new integration, teams can ensure test consistency is maintained by calling the data load process as part of the test case and automatically loading a subset of data into a test environment. In the event the test fails, developers and testers can confidently tie the problem to the code and not the data. 

Remove friction and empower developers. Developers often rely on a specialized team or database administrator to build and load data into a test environment—a practice rife with manual processes, wait times and handoffs that put an unnecessary drag on velocity and efficiency. Now, developers themselves can setup and access the right test data when they need it. 

Ensure adoption through continuous testing. A repeatable data extract and load process can be part of an automated testing toolchain, driving data consistency and reducing complexity. And, as an aid to nudging developers’ transition away from manual methods, automation can be set up incrementally to properly manage the scale and pace of adoption.

Protect sensitive data. With this integrated process, once the test data is loaded, it can also be privatized to protect personally identifiable information (PII). Automating the privatization as part of the continuous test reduces the risk of a security breach.

“We are dedicated to providing our customers with superior digital products and services,” said Lynn Farley, VP, Manager, Digital Banking and Test Data Privacy at TCF Bank. “Compuware Topaz is helping us do that by disguising sensitive data and populating the environments to improve our testing processes while still being compliant. We can deliver quickly without compromising quality, efficiency or security.”

“High-performance organizations in the Age of Software are maniacally focused on removing software delivery bottlenecks that waste precious development time, money and energy,” said Chris O’Malley, CEO of Compuware. “Driving intrinsic automation throughout a mainframe-inclusive DevOps pipeline frees up these development resources so teams can focus 100 percent on quickly—and continuously—turning ideas that matter to their always wonderfully, beautifully dissatisfied customers into deliverables that make a difference. This is no longer an IT aspiration. It’s an absolute business imperative to effectively compete for both your current and potential customers.”
