Experience the Next Generation of Industrial Labeling Solutions: The LABELWORKS(TM) PX LW-PX900 from Epson & K-Sun

SOMERSET, Wis., Sept. 17, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- K-Sun® Corp., a leader in industrial identification and labeling solutions, introduces the next generation of economical, multi-industry label, heat-shrink tube and bar-code printers--the LW-PX900.

https://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20150917/267729

K-Sun and Epson co-developed this rugged, portable and PC-compatible thermal transfer printer by creating exclusive smart features based on the user experience--from the warehouse and facility floor to fieldwork and mobile offices.

Leading the industry with a lifetime warranty, the LW-PX900 is designed for safety/compliance, IT/electrical installation standards, quality improvement and 5S/lean/visual workplace labeling.

Exclusive smart features include:

    --  Drop-Stop holds a label after it is cut so it won't drop out of the
        printer. This feature works with a single label or with the Pick & Print
        mode for a series of labels.
    --  Pick & Print automatically pauses after printing and cutting the first
        label in a series and resumes printing/cutting when the label is
        removed, eliminating the need to continuously type and print labels.
    --  Mixed-Length lets the user create a strip of variable-length labels with
        a half-cut for easy removal and application, significantly reducing tape
        waste.
Removable magnetic feet allow the printer to mount on a metal surface to free up your hands for better productivity.

Additional tape-saving features include a reduced lead margin of 4mm and adjustable left/right margins down to 1mm. Industry-specific hot keys simplify template selection for wire wraps, patch panels, face plates and punch blocks.

The LW-PX900's 360-dpi, high speed printing produces highly visible and detailed single, continuous and die-cut labels. Easily add bar codes, and print wire flags, cable overwraps and heat shrink tube. Other features include alphanumeric sequencing, auto-repeat, auto-cut, 13 languages and a 99-file printer memory.

PC-based models include the versatile Label Editor Professional software with data import capabilities, 15 bar codes (including QR), 1,000+ industrial symbol library and nine industry catalogs with hundreds of label/sign templates.

The LW-PX900 uses PX Tape, which has more tape per cartridge and is available in hundreds of types, sizes and colors, including magnetic, fluorescent, photoluminescent, heat shrink tubing and more.

The only label printer an entire facility will ever need is made of industrial grade, high-impact plastic that meets MIL-STD 810 "drop" test specifications. An integral handle offers portability, and front-loading cartridges make supply changes fast and easy.

Casio Launches Grand Hybrid Pianos At Lincoln Center Event

New GP-500BP and GP-300 introduced at the event along with a Special Performance from Simone Dinnerstein

DOVER, N.J., Sept. 17, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Casio America, Inc., a leading manufacturer of electronic musical instruments, hosted a launch event for its new Grand Hybrid digital pianos, the CELVIANO GP-500BP and GP-300 on Wednesday, September 16(th) at the Stanley H. Kaplan Penthouse at Lincoln Center in New York City. These innovative digital pianos were developed in collaboration with C. Bechstein, one of the world's most prominent grand piano manufacturers.

https://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20150917/267483

The event kicked off with a presentation on Casio's new Grand Hybrid digital pianos with specific emphasis on their new technology and design aesthetics. Casio executives and representatives of the Electronic Musical Instrument Division were in attendance as well as Karl Schulze, CEO of C. Bechstein, who spoke about the collaboration during the event. Following the presentation was a one-of-a-kind performance by American classical pianist, Simone Dinnerstein, who is widely known for her self-financed recording of Johann Sebastian Bach's Goldberg variations.

"In honor of Casio's 35(th) anniversary, we were thrilled to debut our newest chapter in piano history - the CELVIANO GP-500BP and GP-300 - during our event at Lincoln Center," said Stephen Schmidt, Vice President of Casio's Electronic Musical Instrument Division. "Casio is deeply rooted in the music industry and our new Grand Hybrid digital pianos were designed to represent the ultimate combination of innovation and tradition."

Casio's Grand Hybrid digital pianos are top-level digital pianos that combine advanced technology and traditional craftsmanship, manufactured to the highest quality and demand in order to produce perfect piano sounds. Casio's new AiR Grand Sound Source mimics the beautiful sound, detail and rich reverberation of a grand piano. It provides the sound profiles of three grand piano styles with a long history: the Berlin Grand, which is known for its elegant clear sound and a reverberation that gives each performance rich melodic color; the Hamburg Grand, which delivers gorgeous power and strength with plenty of string resonance; and the Vienna Grand, which provides a calm and stately sound with rich bass and beautiful tones when the keys are played softly. Of the three, the Berlin Grand sound was developed in collaboration with C. Bechstein, a piano maker with a history of over 160 years. As a result, the new models have moved beyond the realm of conventional digital pianos, demonstrating a commitment to nuanced sound creation.

"The CELVIANO Grand Hybrid is a unique instrument where the tactile and tonal experience of playing on a variety of fine acoustic pianos has been simulated using great care and imagination. I would be excited to have one in my own home," said American classical pianist, Simone Dinnerstein.

Additionally, the GP-500BP and GP-300 feature a Grand Acoustic System that faithfully represents the sound of a grand piano as it emanates from above and below the soundboard. The system delivers three-dimensional sound with tonal elongation, expansion and depth.

The GP-500BP and GP-300 also offer the following features:

    --  Natural Grand Hammer Action Keyboard
    --  Hall Simulator
    --  Scene feature
    --  256-note polyphony
    --  5 sensitivity levels
    --  3 direct tone select buttons
    --  60 preset songs
    --  10 user songs
    --  Concert Play mode

The Genie® Company Launches New Remote Access Garage Door Controller - Aladdin Connect(TM)

MT. HOPE, Ohio, Sept. 17, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- The Genie® Company is launching a new garage door controller, Aladdin Connect(TM), which allows remote access to monitor as well as change the open/close position of a garage door from a smart device. The Aladdin Connect controller provides security and convenience to an individual to control access of the garage door at their main residence, or if they choose, to instead control the garage door at a remote location, such as a vacation home or an elderly parent's home.

https://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20150916/267336

The Wi-Fi® enabled control module of the Aladdin Connect system, incorporating the low-power SimpleLink(TM) Wi-Fi CC3200 wireless MCU from Texas Instruments (TI), can be used in conjunction with, or in place of, the opener's standard wall console depending on what is more convenient. The system incorporates a door control module along with a door position sensor that attaches to the garage door. The sensor relays any change in its position to the control module, allowing the homeowner to know whether the door is open or closed. One sensor comes standard with the unit; additional sensors can be purchased to monitor up to three doors.

The UL 325 compliant system is designed to safely allow a homeowner to remotely operate the garage door. It does this by giving audible and visual notifications once the system is activated from the smart device, providing ample warning to anyone near-by that the door is about to move.

The application provides convenience and security by reporting every time the door is open or closed so the homeowner is aware of any activity related to the garage door's status. For further security, the homeowner is alerted as to whether the door changes to the fully open or closed position even if the door is operated manually by disengaging the door from the opener. This is because Aladdin Connect uses a sensor attached to the garage door. That's a big security advantage over other systems that are built into the powerhead itself and monitor just the opener, not the door position.

In the near future, the application will even allow homeowners to pre-schedule closing times. This means a homeowner will be able to set a predetermined time for when the door will automatically close if left open.

"A great option for homeowners joining the smart home movement, the Aladdin Connect system's wireless connectivity provides users with go-anywhere control of their garage door. Also, the system's secure Wi-Fi connection to the cloud gives homeowners real-time notifications of any garage door movements, easing the tension of being away from home," said Ram Machness, business line manager, wireless connectivity solutions, Texas Instruments.

According to Wayne Dickson, senior marketing manager for Genie, the Aladdin Connect system will initially be available for purchase this year through a variety of retail and professional channels.

"We are excited about this new product and its potential for homeowner satisfaction," said Dickson. "Having partnered with Texas Instruments, we know that this is a product that anyone with a smart device will be able to enjoy for years to come."

The Aladdin Connect controller can be used with a wide range of garage door openers available throughout the U.S.  Consumers will be able to check the Genie website for up-to- date specifications for the product.

Azumio Launches New Argus, the First All-in-One Health and Fitness App

Featuring video guided workouts, a heart rate monitor, pedometer, sleep tracker and social community, Argus motivates people to do more and meet their lifestyle goals

PALO ALTO, Calif., Sept. 17, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Azumio today launched the new Argus, an all-in-one health and fitness app that helps people quantify and conquer their lifestyle goals. Featuring video guided workouts, a heart rate monitor, pedometer, sleep tracker and social community, Argus gives people all the data, coaching and camaraderie they need to do more and live healthier.

A leader in mobile health and fitness technology, Azumio's Argus unites its lineup of apps into one flagship platform. Unlike typical apps that focus on a single lifestyle challenge, Argus provides a holistic system designed to improve all dimensions of health. Argus maximizes the full potential of smartphones as a stand-alone app and seamlessly integrates data from many existing wearable devices. Whether the goal is fit into a wedding dress, run a 10K, keep up with active kids or sleep better, Argus can track and contextualize all the data that matters.

Because Argus combines so many different health tools, the app functions like a supportive personal coach. Argus includes several features that set it apart from other apps on the market:

    --  Biometrics. Measure your heart rate using the smartphone camera with the
        built-in Instant Heart Rate(TM) technology. Place a finger on your
        smartphone camera to take heart rate readings or run the Standup
        Test(TM), a measure of fatigue that can prevent overtraining and injury.
        Use Sleep Time(TM) alarm clock technology to wake up during your
        lightest sleep cycle and measure the quality of your sleep.
    --  Guided Workouts. Choose your goal (strength, cardio or flexibility),
        body parts and time limit, and Argus will create a custom home workout
        complete with video instruction and voice cues.
    --  GPS + Pedometer. Do more. Start your hike, bike or run with the built-in
        GPS and pedometer to map your journey and achieve your fitness goals.
    --  Social Community. Challenge friends and family to see who can take the
        most steps. Share your activity and results to keep motivated and
        inspire your community.
    --  Set and Visualize Goals. Choose how much water to drink, sleep to get
        and steps to take. See charts and trends of how your lifestyle improves
        over time.
"At Azumio, our mission is to help people achieve their healthiest and happiest selves, and we believe that Argus can ignite that spark of motivation that lies within everyone," said Bojan Bernard Bostjancic, CEO, "Through Argus, we aim to transcend technology and become the world's first social community for healthy living. This is a platform designed for all people and all goals."

Argus is available as a free service on mobile and web with paid features that include long-term workout plans, additional biometrics, ad-free use, and audio cues for GPS activities. The app is available on iOS and Android. Learn more at Azumio.

About Azumio

Azumio's bundle of life-improving apps has inspired all sorts of people to do more. From this powerhouse came Argus--the all-in-one app that makes doing more possible. Argus fuels that spark of motivation in every one of us, capturing the full picture of a healthy lifestyle. Whether you want to track your steps, improve your sleep habits, monitor your heart rate, eat more nutritiously, or mix up your fitness routine, Argus is your supportive personalized couch encouraging you to accomplish your goals.

RWE to Launch Brand New Communication Solution for the Internet of Things

DORTMUND, Germany, September 17, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --

       
        - Communication protocol allows devices to communicate directly with each other
        - Solution is independent of transport layer
        - High security and flexibility today and in the future

    - Cross reference: Picture is available at AP Images (http://www.apimages.com) and
http://www.presseportal.de/nr/79232 -

    RWE have created a communication protocol called "Lemonbeat" which can address
challenges within the Internet of Things. Part of the solution is a common language called
"Lemonbeat Smart Device Language", compact enough to be used even by the simplest of
devices, yet expandable to serve complex machinery.

         (Logo:

         (Photo:
http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20150917/267552 )

    Widespread adoption would ensure that all things in the Internet are linkable and
could work on the same logic. "I firmly believe that this increased commonality amongst
devices will dramatically speed up innovation within the IoT Industry," said Dr. Dietrich
Gemmel, managing director of RWE Effizienz. The ability to use Lemonbeat as a whole, or
combine Lemonbeat Smart Device Language with other protocols such as Bluetooth, WLAN or
Thread is seen as the key to proliferation.

    The solution stems from experience gained through home automation, several products of
which now use Lemonbeat. "We have taken advantage of our technological edge as the market
leader in Germany to develop a common communication concept - for the full bandwidth of
the Internet of Things," says Gemmel.

    The initial offering is a chip and licences for software which allows the swift
implementation of Lemonbeat. Further products are expected to follow.

    RWE Effizienz GmbH helps customers to use energy in as efficient and safe a manner as
possible by providing energy-related products and services. With innovative approaches and
new products such as RWE SmartHome, electromobility or cutting-edge electricity storage
solutions, RWE Effizienz is setting standards. There are more facts on

World of Warships Launches Today

Chart a course for epic naval warfare

EMERYVILLE, Calif., Sept. 17, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Wargaming is proud to announce that World of Warships is now live. This latest, highly-anticipated installment in Wargaming's free-to-play combat series lets players seize the helm of history's most iconic vessels and take part in giant battles.

"Everyone involved has put their heart and soul into creating a truly outstanding title, and we are extremely proud to share it with gamers across the world. We hope that players will love this game as much as we do."

In World of Warships, aspiring commanders have four distinct classes of ships at their command, and a myriad of upgrades and strategically designed environments, ensuring the action never ends. Cruisers are incredibly versatile vessels, ready to take on any other ship in the game and pick off scuttled opponents. Destroyers are quick and maneuverable, able to dodge enemy fire and deliver a well-executed torpedo strike. Battleships are heavy-hitting powerhouses, perfect for dealing massive damage. Finally, tactical Aircraft Carriers bring a real-time strategy dynamic, with scout planes to enemy vessels, and torpedo bombers dropping their devastating payload.

PvP and PvE game modes play out across 10 unique maps. PvP combat lets teams of 12v12 take to the seas and clash for supremacy. PvE mode pits players against computer AI in a series of skirmishes to sharpen their wits for PvP and practice their teamwork.

With the game's release, naval enthusiasts who have been busy storming the seas in World of Warships and have achieved a level 9 Service Record will be able to truly put their skills to the test with the first season of Ranked Battles. Experienced commanders can dive in to 7v7 Domination matches against those of equivalent skill.

World of Warships' deep customization system lets players discover and shape their playstyle with Commanders, as well as dozens of Modernizations and Skills. Consumables like vessel camouflage and Signal Flags add another tactical element to gameplay, where captains can tailor various boosts to get ahead of the fleet.

In World of Warships, strategic, tactical gameplay and intense naval combat await all those who are ready for the high seas.

iRobot Enters the Smart Home with Roomba® 980 Vacuum Cleaning Robot

With intelligent visual navigation, app control and Wi-Fi® connectivity, the new Roomba 980 cleans an entire level of a home

- SMART: First Roomba to combine adaptive navigation with visual localization to clean for up to two hours[1], recharging and resuming as needed until it cleans an entire level of a home

- SIMPLE: iRobot HOME App gives users control over their Roomba 980 from anywhere, anytime

- CLEAN: AeroForce(TM) Cleaning System with Carpet Boost detects carpeted floors and provides twice the cleaning performance[2] where it's needed most

BEDFORD, Mass., Sept. 16, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- iRobot Corp. (NASDAQ: IRBT), the leader in delivering robotic technology-based solutions, today announced the Roomba 980 vacuum cleaning robot - iRobot's most capable and best cleaning robotic vacuum to date. Roomba 980 is the first Roomba to combine adaptive navigation with visual localization, cloud connected app control, and increased cleaning power on carpets, helping people to keep cleaner floors throughout the entire home at the push of a button.

Experience the interactive Multimedia News Release here: http://www.multivu.com/players/English/7625951-irobot-roomba-980-vacuum-cleaning-robot/

"With more than 14 million robots in people's homes worldwide, iRobot is the global leader in automated home cleaning," said Colin Angle, chairman and chief executive officer of iRobot. "Roomba 980 is the next big step as it marks iRobot's first cloud connected product with mapping capabilities for the consumer market. Leveraging the cloud and mapping technologies, robots gain a better understanding of their environment, and customers are provided with more control. Looking ahead, these technologies will also enable expanded capabilities for connected robots in the smart home."

"Vacuum cleaning robots can't rely on any one feature or technology to clean effectively," said Christian Cerda, executive vice president and general manager of iRobot's Home Robots business unit. "Vacuum performance, efficient navigation, adapting to ever-changing environments and cleaning under furniture where dirt is hiding are all important factors, and they must be balanced. Roomba 980 takes this into account to deliver convenient, customized, powerful cleaning assistance, each and every day."

Smart: Roomba Cleans an Entire Level of a Home with Intelligent Navigation
By combining iRobot's iAdapt(®) Responsive Cleaning Technology with new sensors, the Roomba 980 vacuum cleaning robot independently cleans an entire floor level in a home. With Roomba 980, iRobot is implementing its proprietary visual simultaneous localization and mapping (vSLAM(®)) technology for the first time in a consumer product. This groundbreaking technology is part of iRobot's new iAdapt(®) 2.0 Navigation with Visual Localization, which allows Roomba 980 to build a map of its environment as it cleans, keeping track of its location until it has cleaned an entire level. Using the map, Roomba 980 will run continuously for up to two hours(1), then automatically return to its Home Base(®) to recharge and resume until the cleaning is done. Roomba 980 will clean efficiently in open areas by moving in parallel lines while also taking advantage of the robot's suite of sensors to adapt its pattern when necessary, seamlessly navigating under furniture and around clutter.

Simple: Connect Roomba to Clean from Anywhere with iRobot HOME App
iRobot's new HOME App allows users to connect Roomba 980 to their Wi-Fi(®) network, so when cleaning schedules don't match social or work schedules, they can start a cleaning job from anywhere, anytime. Roomba 980 can also be scheduled to clean up to seven times a week from the familiar Smartphone interface. Available for Android and iOS devices, the HOME App expands Roomba 980's functionality, allowing users to choose the appropriate cleaning mode for their unique home, such as choosing between one or two passes, edge cleaning and whether to use Carpet Boost behavior. The HOME App also provides information about cleaning status, customized tips and direct access to customer support.

Clean: Twice the Cleaning Performance(2) Where it's Needed Most
Dirt doesn't stand a chance against the Roomba 980, which is smart enough to detect different floor surfaces and optimize its cleaning power based on the type of floor it's cleaning. Its AeroForce(TM) Cleaning System with Carpet Boost provides twice the cleaning power(2) by automatically increasing the performance of the Gen 3 motor on carpet and rugs. Roomba 980 features a low profile design to clean under furniture and kickboards, while Dirt Detect(TM) uses optical and acoustic sensors to detect high concentrations of dirt and debris and perform concentrated cleaning in the areas where it's needed most. First introduced on the Roomba 800 Series, the Roomba 980 also features brushless, dual counterrotating debris extractors that grab dirt from any floor type while reducing hair tangles and brush maintenance.

Pricing and Availability
The Roomba 980 vacuum cleaning robot is available for purchase in the United States and Canada beginning September 17, 2015 starting at $899 USD on http://www.irobot.com. Roomba 980 will also be available in Japan and select European countries beginning Q4, 2015.

Timex Launches the New Metropolitan+ Fashion Watch with Activity Tracking Technology for Stylish Men On-the-Go

Debuts as Part of the New Timex "Connected Style Collection"

"We recognized a void in the marketplace for fashionable, functional activity trackers that keep guys connected. The Timex Metropolitan+ watch can be effortlessly integrated into the dynamic, everyday lifestyles of our male consumers."

The Metropolitan+ will debut in two unique styles.  One watch has a silver-tone case, a black dial with red accents and a textured leather strap.  The other variation features a black case with a black dial and orange accents and comes with interchangeable black silicone and orange nylon straps. Both styles feature quick-release straps so you can easily change your look with a variety of strap options available at timex.com.  Both watches also feature Timex's signature INDIGLO(®) night-light, and the phone app is compatible with both iOS and Android devices.

FamilySignal, Rosenhaus Sports and Cleveland Browns wide receiver Brian Hartline introduce a smarter family locator for iPhone

App is first to use standalone 'beacon' devices for new kind of family location alert

WASHINGTON, Sept. 16, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- With a schedule like his, Cleveland Browns wide receiver Brian Hartline knows what it's like to be separated from his family members. While he's away, he does what we all do: He reaches for his phone, and a text message or phone call later, he doesn't feel quite so disconnected.

But what about the times when a conversation isn't possible? For some families, time spent together is all too brief. Married parents spend only 13.7 and 7.2 hours per week with their children, according to a recent study in the Journal of Marriage and Family. In 2015, shouldn't there be a better way to know family members are safe and sound?

"Sometimes, a parent just wants to know that his son has arrived at baseball practice or a child is happy to see that dad just arrived in Cincinnati for his next game," Hartline said. "With FamilySignal, this is a reality. Being away from home feels a little less like being away from home."

FamilySignal, a new iPhone app for iOS devices created in collaboration with Hartline, is a smart, easy-to-use suite of powerful new location features that redefine what smartphones can do for families.

Standalone devices called "beacons" add a brand-new dimension to family location alerts. FamilySignal is the first family locator to use these small add-on devices, which give parents greater peace of mind about everyday activities. Want to know if your child made it to school? FamilySignal's standard GPS location alerts can tell you. But because beacons can be placed anywhere, FamilySignal can alert you every time your teenage daughter enters or leaves her car. And because they're more accurate than GPS, you'll know with certainty that a family member is at home and not a block away. The applications are endless.

FamilySignal's beacon partner is Estimote, a global leader in the market that supports more than 30,000 developers in Fortune 500s and startups alike.

"FamilySignal has one of the most exciting and compelling uses for the beacon platform that we have ever seen," said Mark Modzelewski, of Estimote. "The beacon ensures the safety and wellness of families as they live their lives in these busy, often chaotic and occasionally dangerous times."

Your family is always on the map. FamilySignal gives parents peace of mind by showing the location of family members on a map. If they choose, children can also see where their parents are, too.

With On My Way, children know their parent's real-time ETA. Children can see their parent's location move on the map as they travel, and an ETA shows when they'll arrive.

An easy way for kids to check in. Children can tap "Touch Base" to instantly send their location.

A real panic button for children and the elderly. For emergency situations, a Panic button blasts location data to family members on the network and provides an instant link to 911 emergency dispatchers if needed.

PARTNERSHIP WITH ROSENHAUS SPORTS

For family-centric National Football League players, a tool of this kind carries weight. Rosenhaus Sports, the authority in NFL representation, has partnered with FamilySignal to reach out to select athletes to promote the app through social media.

Interviews are available with FamilySignal President Peter J. Goodman and Cleveland Browns Wide Receiver Brian Hartline.

New Smart Recorder Connects SMI's Eye Tracking Glasses to Daily Life Scenarios

SensoMotoric Instruments (SMI) introduces a highly mobile eye tracking tool for real-world research routines and connects eye gaze with EEG, motion tracking and other sensors

TELTOW, Germany, September 16, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --

    SensoMotoric Instruments [http://www.smivision.com/en.html ] (SMI) today introduces a
new smart recorder for SMI's leading Eye Tracking Glasses (ETG)
[http://www.eyetracking-glasses.com ]. The lightweight device based on a Samsung Galaxy
Note 4 adds more freedom of movement and mobile connectivity options to daily life
research and application scenarios. It captures eye gaze data of consumers, athletes,
patients and other users allowing them to naturally perform their tasks at hand. With its
live trigger support, the smart recorder allows for easy synchronization of visual
attention with biometrics, motion tracking and other external data streams with no
compromise on mobility. The wireless SDK for online data access also makes SMI's Eye
Tracking Glasses the perfect eye tracking platform for custom, multi-sensor applications.

         (Photo:
http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20150916/267133 )

    SMI Eye Tracking Glasses are designed to capture a person's gaze in a natural
environment, e.g. in a supermarket, at a work place or in other daily life scenarios. Via
wireless control from a remote computer, operators can observe live gaze traces in a scene
video and add live annotations on a user's behaviour. Now, the slim and lightweight ETG
smart recorder with a local user interface and full wireless data access makes mobile eye
tracking even easier to implement in stand-alone as well as in multi-sensor scenarios.

    As the research on emotional and cognitive engagement of consumers, users or trainees
is moving into real-world scenarios, researchers seek to integrate various sensors into
multimodal scenarios. With the mobile connectivity of the ETG smart recorder, they can
even better use SMI's Eye Tracking Glasses in combination with EEG, GSR, NIRS, heart rate
or others in mobile settings. The same applies to sports scientists seeking to analyze eye
and body movements in order to understand athletes' performance. Also, mobile gaze and
motion data helps medical professionals to advance behavioral and neurological diagnosis
and rehabilitation.

    Developers can easily access SMI's enhanced wearable eye tracking platform and
integrate mobile eye tracking data in custom applications and sensor networks via the SMI
SDK. SMI's wireless SDK feeds a real-time stream of gaze, pupil data and eye tracking
video into connected applications. Wireless logging of incoming trigger messages supports
synchronization with events in other data streams. To facilitate synchronization, SMI
plug-ins are available for standard communication protocols such as Lab Streaming Layer or
VRPN. The SMI ETG also supports multisensory research with specific application modules.

    Sascha Tamm und Aleksander Heider, Free University of Berlin: "We used SMI Eye
Tracking Glasses with the new smart recorder to analyze visual planning strategies of
talents from the Alba Berlin basketball youth team. In a team training scenario, the point
guard could naturally handle the ball though wearing the eye tracking equipment. And we
could even follow the live gaze trails of the player remotely via a wireless connection."

    Achim Wager, Project Coordinator AICASys at Ruprecht-Karls-Universität Heidelberg:
"The AICASys project funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) has
the goal of developing an intuitive control system for smart building automation. The
system uses SMI Eye Tracking Glasses to capture the natural gaze behavior of people in an
intelligent home environment. The new ETG smart recorder connects the eye tracker to our
control system and enables users to steer electronic devices in their surroundings just
using the eyes. The technical concept may also benefit similar applications in industry,
traffic and medical applications."

    Magnus Berlander, CTO at Qualisys: "We decided to add eye tracking data to our motion
capture software, Qualisys Track Manager, because it allows our customers to gain a better
understanding of the interplay of visual information input, human motion, cognitive skills
and learning. The available motion tracking interface of SMI Eye Tracking Glasses
facilitated the integration and enabled us to come up with a plug&play solution easy to
use even for non-technical users."

    Dr. Arnd Rose, Product Manager, SensoMotoric Instruments: "Multisensory research was
often tied to the lab or other settings involving bulky equipment. The new smart recorder
for the widely used SMI Eye Tracking Glasses brings the approach to real-world and mobile
settings. The ETG system is in fact a common pair of glasses with a smartphone. Due to
this form factor it does not interfere with everyday tasks and offers endless
possibilities to our professional and academic research customers and developers."

    SMI's leading wearable eye tracking technology is being used by leading innovators,
such as Google, Samsung and Intel and renowned institutions, e.g. University of California
at Berkeley, Max Planck Institute and Perception Research Services. The SDK has been
proven with custom integrations by leading industry partners such as WorldViz and Qualisys,
and by scientific labs such as the German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence.

CompanionLink Releases Contact and Calendar Sync Alternative for iPhone 6s, 6s Plus, iPad mini 4 and iPad Pro

DejaOffice App for Outlook synchronizes any Outlook folder without using Exchange, ActiveSync or iCloud, and supports key Outlook features like Category Colors and Recurring Tasks.

PORTLAND, Ore., Sept. 16, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- CompanionLink Software synchronizes Microsoft® Outlook® on PC and Mac without Exchange ActiveSync or iCloud and provides Outlook-like features on iOS devices. The DejaOffice® for Outlook App is available from the Apple App Store and offers USB, secure Wi-Fi and secure Cloud Sync.  It works with CompanionLink on the PC and Mac to provide a simple alternative to Exchange ActiveSync and iCloud solutions that carry less data and experience more problems.

https://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20150915/266976

"On PC Outlook, iCloud requires a special folder which adds problems," says Wayland Bruns, CTO for CompanionLink.  "Nobody wants to change the way they work for their phone.  On Mac OS X, Outlook for Mac requires a costly Exchange enabled account. Then, once you set up the complex system, only a minimum of Outlook data moves to the phone.
