Channeling its cyberpunk aesthetic, the CYBERBOARD’s customizable LED panel features 200 LED lamp beads for vivid, eye-catching displays; as well as specific chips for programmed lighting effects and a changeable modular design. Users can opt for the keyboard’s preset effects or access a unique web interface for DIY configuration www.diy.angrymiao.com.

In addition to its unique design and DIY LED panel, the CYBERBOARD has been meticulously refined by Angry Miao’s engineers over hundreds of hours in order to deliver a superior typing experience. 

The keyboard achieves the sensitive touch of a mechanical keyboard through its individual positioning plate, and the top mount structure is designed with a custom silicone mute mount along with a conical dampener for unparalleled shock absorption, which optimizes touch and sound. CYBERBOARD also includes a 75% layout with independent arrow key and function key zone, which is ideal for touch typing. Moreover, users can change whichever switches they like easily with their hot swap PCB. 

The CYBERBOARD is built with impeccable craftsmanship using the finest materials. The meticulous 10° incline achieves the optimal balance between expressiveness and typing experience, and the keyboard is proofed three times to confirm its 0.65° radius to ensure a gentle touch while retaining its sharp appearance. In addition, the keyboard’s top-level anodic coloring is up to the standard of smartphone manufacturing.

Created by enthusiasts for enthusiasts, the CYBERBOARD design team is a Red Dot award winner design team boasts talents from some of China’s leading tech brands.

Level 10 releases UPstage180 Hi-Fi Speaker to Help Customers Relieve Stress

Leave a comment

RENO, Nev., July 24, 2020 Level 10, in collaboration with Soundmatters®, announced the release of the new UPstage180, a Bluetooth speaker combined Hi-Fi sound, the ambient feature with relaxing sound and soothing light to bring listeners a novel audio experience. The true-to-life nature sounds are blended with selected frequencies to strengthen the resonance of soundwave between the music and the body, which helps listeners concentrate and focus, fall asleep faster, and stay calm for meditation. The project has reached its Kickstarter goal of US$20,000 in 9 hours, and it’s now available from US$315 with early bird deals (retails for $549): https://backme.tw/ref/2GmQj

“Many of us face the challenge of lockdown, working at home for months due to the pandemic influence. Even under normal circumstances, completely switching off from work isn’t always easy. We felt personal wellness has never been more important, and we wanted to build a product to remind people to give themselves some time away from stress and feel and immerse in the music they love. It’s a speaker created to stay in your everyday life,” said Emma Yu, a core member of Level 10 and CEO of Soundmatters®.

UPstage180 is designed to make listeners relax and “feel” the music better. The mood feature, easily controllable via the proprietary app, comes with built-in nature sound such as forest, rain, and deep sea. Listeners can blend them in the music or enjoy the ambience effect alone. The audio experience is further enhanced with an integrated a soothing light design, which turns the speaker into a small ambient LED table/ wall-mount lamp. Unlike most LED lamps which could be harsh and fatigue the eyes easily, UPstage180 adopts the LED bulbs with low-color temperature so the light is warm and comfortable, resembling the natural sunlight. Besides the app, the light settings are adjustable from the touch bar on the side and choose from 3 light modes, eternal, breathing, and flicker, to go with the mood selected.

UPstage180’s unique acoustic design enables it to reach 92dB loudness capabilities and 60 to 20,000 Hz frequency response at the size of a toast bread slice, while it usually requires a speaker 4 times larger to achieve the same performance. To achieve the specs at an ultra-compact size, it’s first speaker in the world using a Flat Glass Woofer and Linear Magnetic Drive “twoofer” made of carbon fiber. The components allow it to generate sufficient energy in a small chamber and project sound evenly in a 180° soundstage and creates a room-filled listening “sweet zone”. Wherever they are, listeners will always hear the same authentic, hi-fi sound.

Technical Specs:

  • 2 x Twoofer 25 full range speaker + 1 Mid-Woofer Glass speaker
  • 2.1 way. Active Speaker
  • 60 to 20,000 Hz Frequency Response
  • 92 dB Sound Pressure Level
  • Aux-in, TWS Bluetooth 5.0 Streaming
  • 45 watts per bass + 15 watts per channel for Twoofer
  • Adjustable LED light guide plate with 12V 3500k dimmable
  • 180mm (7.09 inch) x 180mm (7.09 inch) x 34mm (1.33 inch)
  • 1.6 kg (3.53 lbs) net weight

The UPstage180 retails for US$549. For more information, visit https://backme.tw/ref/2GmQj. UPstage180 is expected to ship in October, 2020.

Wistron Receives TUV Rheinland Eyesafe Display Certification for Low Blue-Light Panels

Leave a comment

TAIPEI, June 10, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — The recent surge in working from home and tele-education due to the COVID-19 pandemic has generated a new wave of demand. Personal computer peripherals such as keyboards, monitors, and notebook computers have all seen a large jump in sales. Communication during the pandemic means people are now spending more time video-conferencing on mobile phones, computers, and other displays. Their eyes are therefore being exposed to blue light for longer periods of time. Some quick-thinking IT companies such as Wistron are responding to this trend by taking the lead in incorporating the health requirements of end users. They are now improving the quality of eye protection at the hardware level without compromising on color accuracy. As a result, TUV Rheinland recently issued TUV Rheinland Eyesafe Display certification for two panels from Wistron. The certification boosts buyer confidence by confirming that the panels comply with the relevant standards.

Wistron Receives TUV Rheinland Eyesafe Display Certification for Low Blue-Light Panels
Wistron Receives TUV Rheinland Eyesafe Display Certification for Low Blue-Light Panels

New research by the U.S. market research firm AC Nielsen has found that people today spend on average of more than 13 hours a day in front of a display. TUV Rheinland first launched the eye comfort revolution in the display market in 2014 by developing the first low blue-light standard for monitors. Traditional monitor safety standards were upgraded to the advanced eye protection standard, and a number of the related displays have since been developed by vendors with TUV Rheinland assistance. In March this year, TUV Rheinland partnered with Eyesafe® to launch TUV Rheinland Eyesafe Display certification to promote good vision and keep pace with technological progress. The new standard is based on the TUV Rheinland low blue-light standard. More than 250 ophthalmologists and optometrists with experience in clinical health and safety research contributed to its development. Consumers can use the TUV Rheinland’s Certipedia.com to see which products have received this display certification.

Tony Chen, Deputy General Manager of Display BU at Wistron, says: “Applying for TUV Rheinland Eyesafe Display certification not only confirmed that our product complies with leading management standards on blue-light and color performance. In keeping with the trend towards consumer health, this also showed that Wistron has always been at the forefront of the market developing electronic products that are beneficial to the health of customers.”

Wistron is one of the key suppliers of consulting services and communication products for the top 10 ICT brands in the world. Its products encompass notebooks, tablets, desktop computers, monitors, portable navigation devices, servers, and network storage equipment. Wistron strives to supply consumers with popular innovative electronic products and help customers market their brands around the world. It has been included in Fortune’s Top 500 large enterprises for many consecutive years.

New Report With 33 Expert Tips on Circular IT Management

Leave a comment

STOCKHOLM, June 9, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — The new report from TCO Development, the organization behind the global sustainability certification for IT products TCO Certified, explains how everyone who buys and uses IT products can implement circular and more sustainable practices.

New report with 33 expert tips on circular IT management
New report with 33 expert tips on circular IT management

“Circular solutions are already available. We now need to use them,” says Clare Hobby, Global Purchaser Engagement Director at TCO Development.

The report, Impacts and Insights: Circular IT Management in Practice, sets out how the circular economy helps solve many of the most pressing sustainability challenges linked to IT products. Today’s linear consumption causes substantial carbon dioxide emissions. Natural resources are being rapidly exhausted and vast amounts of hazardous e-waste piles up, with more than 50 million metric tonnes being discarded every year, of which only 20% is being responsibly taken care of. The circular economy can help us reduce the pressure we’re putting on the planet.

As a pioneer of circular procurement, Aalborg municipality has seen the effects of acting with greater circularity.

“The amount of CO2 we can save by keeping IT products longer surprised me. Using laptops for another three years will save emissions equivalent to heating and powering all municipality buildings for a year,” says Birgitte Krebs Schleemann, project manager for sustainability procurement at Aalborg municipality.

The circular transition is a paradigm shift that will require both big and small changes. In the report, experts in the frontline of circularity and IT share 33 concrete tips.

“We want to go beyond theory — this report provides practical help for those who want to take the next step,” says Clare Hobby.

Some of the tips:

  1. Use your IT-products longer — it’s the single most important thing you can do to save natural resources and cut greenhouse gas emissions.
  2. Work to gradually implement circular practices, such as take-back programs.
