Color Star Technology Co., Ltd. (NASDAQ: CSCW) Announces $26 Million Private Placement for Upgrade to Artificial Intelligence and Virtual Reality Technologies

Leave a comment

NEW YORK, Feb. 23, 2021 — Color Star Technology Co., Ltd. (NASDAQ: CSCW) (hereinafter referred to as "Color Star" or the"Company"), today announced a private placement of $26 million at price of $1.30 per share. The proceeds from this placement will be used toward the development of Artificial Intelligence (AI), Augmented Reality (AR), and Mixed Reality (MR) technologies to create virtual communities for the Company’s software application (hereinafter referred to as the "Color Star APP").

Since its launch in September 2020, the Color Star APP has already acquired a registered user base exceeding 1 million and growing, and is also the first online software that focuses on interactions with celebrities. The Company is currently collaborating with Silicon Valley software engineers and a Chinese technology R&D company to create AI with blockchain technology. Specifically, the collaboration will focus on the development and application of 3D virtual reality (VR) technology to online concerts, in the hope of recreating these concerts as "live" concerts, and resolving the solitary and non-interactive nature of online concerts. The Company’s goal is to transform the experience of an online concert to that comparable to watching it in-person. Towards this end, the company has also invested heavily in MR, which is an extension of VR and AR. The creation of MR scenes gives the audience, who are sitting in front of their screens at home, a similar experience to being at a live concert, where they are immersed in 3D scenes with their senses activated. At the same time, they can communicate with other participants from around the world through virtual communications, and interact with celebrities in real time. MR technology also allows other benefits, such as allowing for real-time on-site seat selection, so that there will no longer be a single ticket price for online concerts, but different seats reflecting different viewing angles and price levels, which creates an overall more customized and realistic experience.

Because the Company’s existing 2D products are unable to resolve the issue of dizziness for the audience, it will launch a more futuristic naked-eye 3D vision technology, allowing audiences to nearly replicate the experiences of live scenes. The Company also plans to develop a wireless Bluetooth headset technology that allows for real-time, high-quality, surround-sound to complement and enhance the virtual experience.

The CEO of Color Star, Mr. Luke Lu, commented: "The upgrade and development of AI and AR technology will be a revolution for the Company. We are collaborating with many top research institutions and technical professionals to create an AI that is unique to Color Star which combines AR and MR technologies. This integration of AR and MR will create a realistic virtual world, and demonstrates that Color Star is not only an internet company but also a high-technology company. The Company has plans to establish a center in Silicon Valley that focuses on the research and development of VR, which will be integrated into the Company’s various businesses, including offline and online concerts, celebrity education, and peripheral product sales, so that users are not only ‘viewing‘ a web page on 2D, but actually merging parts of VR with reality."

"Color Star’s upgrade and development in AI and AR is expected to be a breakthrough in the field of technological development. The application of VR is expected to be inevitable for many industries, including the future of online video, communication, and entertainment. We hope this time the VR we develop and create will bring our users an unprecedented experience. I believe with the development and application of more advanced AI and AR technologies, there will be more reasons for users to experience the Color Star APP, and our user base will grow rapidly. In the meantime, the application of multiple scenes will soon be reflected in the Company‘s upcoming online concerts. With the entertainment revolution driven by the development and upgrade of new technology, the Company expects to attract more audiences worldwide. In addition, blockchain technology can be used in various applications in the near future, such as helping the Company in the development of its copyright platform, celebrity interaction platform, peripheral product sales, and concert ticket sales businesses," concluded Mr. Lu.

Continuous 5G Evolution for Building an Engine of All-Industry Digitalization — Dr. Tong Wen, Huawei Fellow and CTO of Huawei Wireless

Leave a comment

SHANGHAI, Feb. 23, 2021 — At the 5G Advanced Summit hosted by the Global System for Mobile Communications Association (GSMA) during Mobile World Congress Shanghai 2021, Dr. Tong Wen, Huawei Fellow and CTO of Huawei Wireless, delivered a keynote speech titled "Continuous 5G Evolution for Building an Engine of All-Industry Digitalization". In his speech, Dr. Tong emphasized that 5G must continuously evolve to build an engine of all-industry digitalization so as to satisfy the fast-growing consumer connections and diverse industrial applications.

5G Evolution Speech @ MWC 2021 by Dr. Tong Wen, Huawei Fellow and CTO of Huawei Wireless
5G Evolution Speech @ MWC 2021 by Dr. Tong Wen, Huawei Fellow and CTO of Huawei Wireless

5G development accelerates, driving 5G networks to improve performance

A new communication technology generally dominates for a decade, evolving to provide stronger capabilities, before being superseded by the next generation. In the past year, 5G has been evolving at a faster rate, showing its massive potential. The continuous improvement of experience in customer connections and enrichment of Internet of Things (IoT) services raise the requirements on connection capabilities. "The ever-increasing demand for wireless connections is the fundamental driving force to continuously advance mobile technologies," said Dr. Tong.

Therefore, 5G must constantly improve its capabilities. Enhanced Mobile Broadband (eMBB) services are driving a significant upsurge in data demand, requiring 5G networks to increase capacity to guarantee premium experience. With the introduction of reduced capability (REDCAP), massive Machine-Type Communications (mMTC) services will be available on more terminals to fulfill the massive diverse IoT requirements. Ultra-reliable low-latency communication (URLLC) services require networks to reduce transmission latency and provide latency-guaranteed connection services so as to meet the high-quality connection requirements of remote and programmable logic controller (PLC) control.

5G must expand its boundary of capabilities to open up a new space of business

As new applications keep emerging in the market, the three use cases originally defined in 5G need enhancement to meet diverse IoT service requirements. The boundary of 5G capabilities must be expanded to open up a new space of business.

Immersive interaction services are rapidly developing. 5G AR/VR has enabled superior virtual experience. With the rise of lightweight XR devices, 5G XR will also become a reality. This requires 5G to be further enhanced to deliver premium immersive experiences. 5G networks will be required to increase its average speed from 120 Mbps to 2 Gbps as high definition improves from 4K to 16K. To ensure real-time interaction in the virtual world, 5G must also further reduce transmission latency from the current 20 ms to 5 ms.

Uplink-centric networks are accelerating industrial digitalization. Currently, 5G applications are growing at an unprecedented rate, raising the requirements on uplink speeds. Various consumer AR/XR services require high-definition images and videos to be sent from local devices to clouds for further rendering. Remote control and machine vision in industrial applications also require real-time transfer of 4K and 8K videos. This will lead to a considerable increase in the proportion of uplink traffic over 5G networks to above 40%. To deal with such a huge amount of uplink traffic, 5G uplink capabilities must be improved by at least 10 times.

In addition, 5G must provide sensing capabilities to empower remote control, vehicle-road synergy, unmanned transportation, and smart logistics. For example, by introducing cellular Massive MIMO’s beam sweeping to sensing technologies, both sensing and communication, and even indoor high-precision positioning services, can be implemented through wireless technologies.

5.5G will become an engine of all-industry digitalization

Based on its abundant practices while helping realize the prospects in the mobile industry, Huawei has proposed 5.5G to contribute to exploring new applications, including uplink centric broadband communication (UCBC), real-time broadband communication (RTBC), and harmonized communication and sensing (HCS), with the aim to build an engine of all-industry digitalization.

"Both technology and business are essential to stimulate and promote the development of an industry. The mobile industry, the world’s largest wireless connection market, reaches trillions of US dollars every year," said Dr. Tong. "The accelerating integration of 5G with various industries will create a new market space worth more than US$10 trillion." Due to the lack of collaboration between the connection technologies of industrial services, the applications are often limited to just a single or several applications, far from a scaled effect. As a result, the market is worth just billions of US dollars. The continuous evolution of 5G will improve network capabilities and expand service scenarios, adding extra support for achieving the integration while reducing the cost of connections. This will help unleash the potential business opportunities worth over US$100 billion in the IoT industry.

"The innovation of technologies and applications will open up infinite possibilities for 5G evolution in the next decade," Dr. Tong concluded. "The wireless communications industry cannot achieve success without unified standards and industrial collaboration. Together, we should define 5G evolution and promote industrial collaboration to accelerate the maturity of technology and build a sustainable future with 5G."

Carpet Cleaning Innovator Zerorez Atlanta Cleans Up Their Customer Experience while Drastically Cutting Frustration of Remote Agents with Bright Pattern Contact Center

Leave a comment

Zerorez Atlanta, a fast-growing carpet cleaning company, deploys Bright Pattern Cloud Contact Center to support customers over traditional and digital channels with a 100% remote workforce

SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., Feb. 22, 2021 — Bright Pattern, a leading provider of AI-powered cloud contact center software, has been deployed by Zerorez Atlanta to provide a personalized customer experience over inbound and outbound voice, chat, and text message channels. Zerorez Atlanta performed extensive research to determine the optimal omnichannel cloud contact center vendor that they could recommend to all Zerorez franchises across 60 U.S. cities and found the perfect partner in Bright Pattern.

Read Full Success Story

Zerorez Atlanta experienced outages lasting as long as five hours every couple of months with its existing cloud contact center provider, and they lacked remote functionality for their fully remote workforce. The company also experienced problems integrating the contact center platform to its proprietary CRM. After evaluating multiple vendors, Zerorez Atlanta chose to partner with Bright Pattern because of its flexible integrations, ease-of-use, modern technology and features, and significantly lower setup costs.

With Bright Pattern’s platform, Zerorez Atlanta saw a massive decrease in agent frustration, with complaints from agents dropping by 75% in the first month alone. Zerorez Atlanta has also seen almost no downtime, allowing the company to provide better customer service without the frequent outages experienced with its prior cloud contact center provider. Zerorez Atlanta has also seen cost savings and fast ROI due to a combination of lower deployment costs and the elimination of lengthy, frequent downtime. Zerorez Atlanta has already saved an average of 30 to 40 dollars per agent per month while also reducing average call handling times by at least 30 seconds per call since moving to Bright Pattern. Furthermore, Bright Pattern’s software was able to automatically diagnose connectivity issues for remote workers and notify Zerorez Atlanta agents when connectivity issues were caused by the agent’s internet connection.

“When we implemented Bright Pattern’s platform, agent frustration dropped dramatically,” exclaimed Brandon Colton, Customer Care Operations Manager at Zerorez Atlanta. “Rather than spending all day fighting the software, agents are now helping customers. Bright Pattern has made being a 100% remote workforce easy and reliable. From the moment we partnered with Bright Pattern, the process couldn’t have been smoother.”

Zerorez Atlanta plans to integrate more technology with Bright Pattern’s platform to make the customer and agent experience even better and more tailored for their use cases. In the upcoming months, Zerorez Atlanta plans to implement AI into their CX operations through chatbots and live chat on their website.

Companies of all sizes select Bright Pattern to support their customer care organizations because of its simplified – yet robust – omnichannel platform, offering traditional channels; emerging channels like Facebook Messenger; in-app customer support; enterprise functionality; cloud-first architecture; and the ability to modify without the use of outside services. Bright Pattern was recently recognized by Ovum as a Market Challenger, by Omdia for best platform functionality, by Frost & Sullivan as a top-performing vendor, and by Gartner as a leader in the Call Center FrontRunners Quadrant.
