This precision allows men to enjoy smooth skin without the hassle of razors, wax strips, or frequent salon visits.

Equipped with self-developed Ice Cooling Technology, the Ulike X maintains a cool 61.4°F, preventing burns and skin irritation for a more comfortable experience. The SkinSensor technology further enhances safety by detecting skin tones, adjusting power settings, and stopping flashes if an area is too dark for safe application. Additionally, a built-in 1mm UV filter protects the skin from harmful ultraviolet light, ensuring a healthy, hair-free experience without the risk of damage.

Ulike IPL devices are designed to offer professional-grade precision and safety in a compact, easy-to-use format. The Ulike X allows men to achieve smooth, hair-free skin in the comfort and privacy of their own homes, without the need for regular clinic visits. It provides long-lasting results that make everyday grooming more efficient and hassle-free.

With two 30-watt four-inch dynamic drivers, two 10-watt 20mm silk dome tweeters, and two outward-facing passive bass radiators, EarFun’s new wireless Bluetooth speaker produces a serious 80 watts of room-filling power. The newly patented Innovate JumboBass™ is EarFun’s bass system that creates mind-blowing levels of low-end frequencies and is featured here for the first time.

Oluv’s Gadgets Collab and EQ Customization

But the sound is greater than the sum of its specifications. EarFun’s forward-thinking engineers collaborated with Austria-based music geek Oluv, the personality behind the audio review channel Oluv’s Gadgets on YouTube, helping tailor 7 unique EQ settings that bring out the best of the UBOOM® X’s lively sound signature. Accessing those custom EQ profiles is a breeze with EarFun’s Audio App, where you can adjust your sound preferences to achieve magic.

Party Connect and RGB Show

And to expand on that magic, the UBOOM® X features a Party Connect mode that allows up to 50 UBOOM® X speakers to play in sync – perfect for multi-room gatherings and parties. While outside, there is a chance you might need some light. The UBOOM® X sports two spherical, dynamic multi-color LEDs to bring everyone to the party’s center or induce a complimenting atmosphere during laidback listening. Using the EarFun Audio App, users can toggle their choice of LED color or select one of the presets.

Endless Connectivity

The UBOOM® X will be a connectivity beast. It uses the latest low-latency Bluetooth 5.3 to facilitate snappy and secure wireless connections with devices and other UBOOM® X speakers.

As a result, the battery-efficient design offers all day and some 30 hours of playback and 30-watt charging via USB-C. Opening the rubberized seal in the speaker’s rear exposes the dual USB-C ports and the welcome 3.5mm auxiliary port for a wired connection. One of the USB-C ports supplies charging from the embedded power bank, allowing people to charge on the go or when they‘re in the great outdoors, where no power outlet is in sight. And with their smartphone connected they can answer calls with the integrated microphone and interface with Apple’s Siri or Google Assistant.

Built for the Outdoors

As a true outdoor wireless speaker, the UBOOM® X is protected by IP67-grade water resistance and their proprietary waterproofing SweatShield™ technology. While many speakers can suffer a hit in audio quality due to trade-offs from weatherproofing or enhancing material integrity, EarFun’s UBOOM® X offers multiple indoor and outdoor modes to ensure the best performance based on users’ environment. Sound quality remains at the forefront of EarFun’s philosophy.

Price and Availability

The UBOOM® X now is available on myearfun.com and Amazon.com at $159.99.

Anviz Unveils M7 Palm Access Control Device

Leave a comment

The Most Reliable and Secure Contactless Solution to Date

UNION CITY, Calif., Oct. 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Anviz, a brand of Xthings, a global leader in intelligent security solutions, announces the upcoming release of its latest access control solution, the M7 Palm, equipped with cutting-edge Palm Vein Recognition technology. This innovative device is designed to provide superior accuracy, security, and convenience to high-security and privacy-sensitive environments in industries such as banking, data centers, laboratories, airports, prisons, and government institutions. Launching globally today, Anviz is gearing up to revolutionize the way users interact with access control systems.

Your palm is your key to access.
Your palm is your key to access.

The M7 Palm Vein Access Control Device offers a seamless access experience, allowing users to unlock doors with a wave of the hand. Using Palm Vein Recognition, a top-tier biometric security method, it addresses the limitations of facial and fingerprint recognition by providing a more secure, non-invasive, and user-friendly solution.

Palm Vein Recognition captures the unique pattern of veins inside a person’s palm using near-infrared light. Hemoglobin absorbs the light, creating a vein map, which is converted into a secure digital template through advanced algorithms, ensuring accurate identification. Unlike facial recognition, which may raise privacy concerns, or fingerprint scans, which can be affected by wear, palm vein recognition is discreet, reliable, and harder to forge. Its non-contact nature also makes it more hygienic, ideal for environments with strict health protocols.

The M7 Palm Vein Access Control Device leverages this advanced technology to provide a seamless and secure user experience. With a False Rejection Rate (FRR) of ≤0.01% and a False Acceptance Rate (FAR) of ≤0.00008%, the accuracy of the system far exceeds that of traditional fingerprint or face recognition methods, offering a higher level of protection for critical infrastructure and sensitive information.

The M7 Palm Vein Access Control Device stands out for its numerous advantages, making it an ideal solution for high-security environments. The benefits of using palm veins are as follows:

  • Security: Palm Vein recognition uses a living biometric, making it nearly impossible for intruders to copy or replicate the pattern. This ensures a higher level of security than external biometric methods like fingerprints or facial recognition.
  • Reliability: The Palm Vein structure remains largely unchanged over time, providing long-term stability and consistency in identification.
  • Privacy: Since the technology scans internal veins rather than external features, it is less intrusive and more acceptable to users who are concerned about privacy.
  • Hygiene: The non-contact nature of the technology allows users to simply hover their hand over the scanner without needing to physically touch any surface, making it an ideal solution for environments that prioritize cleanliness and hygiene.
  • Precision: Palm Vein technology captures a larger surface area than fingerprint or face recognition systems, enabling the scanner to collect more data points for comparison, resulting in highly accurate identification.

Moreover, the features of the M7 Palm are designed by meticulously polishing the needs of the users:

  • Enhanced Human-Machine Interaction: Intelligent ToF laser-ranging provides accurate distance measurement, with an OLED display ensuring recognition at precise distances and delivering clear notifications to the user.
  • High-intensity protective design for outdoor: With a narrow metal exterior design,  the standard IP66 design ensures the device works well outdoors, and the IK10 vandal-proof standard ensures a robust and stable installation.
  • PoE Powering and Communications: PoE support provides centralized power management and efficiency with the ability to remotely reboot devices, making it a convenient and flexible solution for many network applications.
  • Two-Factor Verification Security: Supports multiple identity combinations, choosing any two of Palm Vein, RFID card, and PIN Codes to complete the identification, ensuring absolute security in special places.

As security becomes a growing priority, demand for biometric solutions like palm vein recognition is surging. By 2029, the global market for palm vein biometrics is projected to reach $3.37 billion, with a CAGR of over 22.3%. The Banking, Financial Services, and Insurance (BFSI) sector is expected to lead this growth alongside military, security, and data center applications.

“As a milestone product in the biometrics and security industry, till next June, Xthings will work with more than 200 partners to bring the product to markets such as North America, Western Europe, the Middle East, and Asia Pacific, empowering the clients to enjoy a safer and more convenient experience. $3.3 Billion market share is there, let’s work together!” said Peter Chen, Product Marketing Manager. [To talk about partnership]

Though still in the early stages of market adoption, Anviz is committed to advancing palm vein technology. With limited competition, the M7 Palm Vein Access Control Device is poised to make a significant impact. Anviz continues to innovate, delivering smarter, safer, and more convenient security solutions globally.

About Anviz

Anviz, a brand of Xthings, is a global leader in converged intelligent security solutions for SMBs and enterprise organizations. Anviz offers comprehensive biometrics, video surveillance, and security management systems powered by cloud, Internet of Things (IoT), and AI technologies. Anviz serves various industries, including commercial, education, manufacturing, and retail sectors, supporting over 200,000 businesses in creating smarter, safer, and more secure environments.

The awe of encountering such a deep-sea giant, the fleeting sounds of the underwater world, and the unparalleled experience of life itself—these moments, once beyond the reach of mobile phones, are now within grasp thanks to the Infinix ZERO 40 Series.

This high-end Wi-Fi 6 enabled set-top box opens door for range of AI uses cases including event detection within video and image enhancement

PARIS, Sept. 12, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Vantiva (Euronext Paris: VANTI), a global technology leader enabling NSPs to connect consumers worldwide, today introduced the ONYX 4K Ultra HD Android TV set-top box, the latest AI-enabled platform to be launched by Vantiva. Equipped with an extremely powerful 40K quad-core processor and featuring a 4 TOPS NPU, the ONYX STB is one of the first to incorporate innovative AI capabilities that open the door to numerous next-generation use cases including identifying and locating specific events in video (event detection within video) and image enhancement features such as sharpening (super resolution) or decreasing grain (advanced denoising). The ONYX will be demonstrated at IBC 2024 in Hall 1, Level 2, Balcony Suite 1.BS21, Rai, Amsterdam, Sept. 13 – 16.

“The expansion of AI technology into video delivery is driving further innovations and is set to completely transform the home entertainment sector,” said Leopold Diouf, Senior Vice President of the Product Division at Vantiva. “As the central hub of the home entertainment ecosystem, intelligent set-top boxes, like ONYX, play a crucial role in this AI revolution, enabling the integration of new added value services, such as predictive maintenance and enhanced security for NSPs and more personalized content for consumers. Furthermore, as ONYX supports HDR10, HDR10+ and Dolby® Vision formats, end-users will be able to enjoy a more immersive video experience.”

With the latest, most efficient and highest-performing dual-band Wi-Fi 6 technology, the ONYX allows for video streaming over Wi-Fi with support for IPTV and Over-the-Top (OTT) services such as Netflix, Hulu and Disney Plus. This allows more flexibility and mobility in the placement of the STB. The ONYX is running on Android TV 14 software and is ready for RDK as the bootloader can support both standards. The device is equipped with a quad-core processor, a powerful NPU, Bluetooth 5.2 LE technology and supports the latest Video Codecs H.266/VVC. This makes it a future-proof platform for enhanced services and data analytics features.

The ONYX will have the option for Far Field Voice (FFV) control with up to four microphones. This enables the end-user to have a true ‘lie-back’ experience where they will only need their voice to search or control the volume without having to find and press a button on the remote control. FFV will effectively incorporate smart assistant features into the STB and complement AI functionality as Large Language Models continue to evolve. Vantiva has designed this platform with flexibility in mind so it can be configured to suit the requirements of operators.

The ONYX casing is designed with recycled plastics and uses a USB-C power connector to maximize the re-use of power supply units. Additionally, the Bluetooth 5.2 LE technology enhances audio quality and manages power consumption more effectively, resulting in longer battery life for Bluetooth devices.
