SpinDing Announces Mobile Advertising Platform Designed to Increase Foot Traffic and Sales for Merchants, Brands
Geo-Targeted Smart Phone App Builds Loyalty and Brand Awareness Among Local Consumers.
LAS VEGAS, Oct. 21, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- SpinDing, LLC has unveiled its new smart phone App - the "SpinDing Game", designed to drive retail consumer traffic to client destinations and increase consumer loyalties with back end reporting and communications tools. The Game is built around a geo-targeted database platform that allows advertisers to create campaigns that drive traffic to a location from a global, regional or local pool of consumers. Advertisers are now able to establish a position in the network, design and plan a campaign to be ready for the consumer rollout early in January 2015.
The SpinDing Game allows consumers to play once per day and win a prize each time they play. Advertisers allocate the prizes to be distributed within their campaigns, ranging from nominal value inventory items to more expensive prizes. Strategies can be developed that range from increasing sales to building brand loyalty, and as with other more traditional advertising methods, campaigns can be tailored to meet the growth, sales and loyalty goals of the advertiser.
"The mobile landscape is reshaping long-held notions about marketing..." said Paul Nash, CEO of SpinDing LLC, "the SpinDing Game re-defines advertising by integrating mobile data and dynamics into a platform that directly benefits an advertiser. We are able to deliver a stream of customers for a fraction of the cost of traditional advertising, and we do so while enhancing brand/store loyalties in ways that were unavailable until now."
When asked about supporting online retailers, Nash went on to say, "The platform is effective as much for brick and mortar merchants as well as online retail. It is geo-targeted and highly granular, allowing advertisers to bring new customers into a location from across the street or across the country. And it provides a one-on-one communications channel to be opened between the advertiser and consumer because the hardware is itself a communications device supporting SMS text and voice calls. It should be noted that in this case advertiser messages are actually welcomed because of the proposition of winning a prize and the recipient wanting instructions or 'next steps.'"
SpinDing has results from operating a similar prize-related game in a 4000 store deployment in the 1990's that highlights the redemption rates and loyalties derived from the proposition of "winning" a prize. "Promotions are a key part of any marketing strategy," says Nash, "but marketers have been wasting money on couponing, rebates and daily deals for years. None of these strategies build loyalty, generate enough lift in full-margin sales or get meaningful redemption rates to be effective. We know that winning a prize can result in a 10X increase in traffic over traditional couponing. It differs from rebates by being more profitable for the advertiser with a higher consumer value proposition. (i.e. driven by a retail value perception at a wholesale value cost). And the SpinDing App introduces loyalty into a consumer relationship by default, and provides an opportunity for both loyalty reinforcement and increased sales at the point of redemption."
SpinDing LLC owns and operates the SpinDing Game, a new smart phone-enabled promotional game, where participants win free products every time they play. The game is positioned to combine the widespread popularity of gaming and the excitement of winning a prize to establish a new traffic building advertising platform for merchants and brands of all sizes.

New Chipset for DSL Infrastructure Delivers Faster Broadband over Installed Copper Cabling
AMSTERDAM, Oct. 21, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Broadband World Forum 2014
News Highlights:
-- Industry's highest density solution for G.fast, with bandwidth up to
1Gbps per twisted pair
-- World's highest integration VDSL with 2x density(1) and up to 36 ports
of fully-vectored VDSL(2 )
-- Provides the industry's most integrated G.fast and G.Vector

Broadcom Corporation (NASDAQ: BRCM), a global innovation leader in semiconductor solutions for wired and wireless communications, today introduced a new chipset that will enable operators and service providers to deliver Gigabit performance over currently installed twisted pair copper cabling. Built on Broadcom's field-proven central-office DSL technology, the BCM65200 DSP and BCM65900 analog front end family of chipsets are the industry's highest density G.fast solution, providing a critical step in paving the path to Gigabit-speed services over copper to the home. For more news, visit Broadcom's Newsroom.
Today's introduction unlocks the Gigabit-speed potential of operator and service provider's installed copper plant, providing fixed line operators with a path to highly-competitive broadband services over the next several years. Complementing the BCM65200/900 family, Broadcom's end-to-end portfolio for residential home gateways includes the BCM63138 with full support for G.fast and G.vector deployments. Broadcom will showcase its full line of G.vector and G.fast technology October 21-23, 2014 at Broadband World Forum in Amsterdam, booth #MR7.
"As an industry leader in G.vector and G.fast technologies, Broadcom is supporting the in-progress deployments and trials of operators evaluating cost-effective ways to boost the performance of their broadband services across existing access networks," said Greg Fischer, Broadcom Senior Vice President and General Manager, Broadband Carrier Access. "Worldwide support for G.fast is growing as it enables operators to provide FTTH-like speeds without the cost associated with fiber deployments."
The BCM65200 DSP and BCM65900 analog front-end VDSL chipset with on-chip vectoring and integrated G.fast support a new state-of-the-art DSP architecture to deliver unmatched levels of integration. Incorporating up to 36 lines of VDSL2 or six lines of G.fast, plus high-speed vector interfaces that eliminate the need for external PHY and framing devices, the BCM65200/900 family delivers the most power-efficient system solution for high-density G.vector DSLAMs as well as new G.fast-based fiber-to-the-distribution point (FTTdp) architectures. With full backward-compatibility to existing VDSL and ADSL technologies, including simultaneous G.Fast and G.vector crosstalk cancellation, the BCM65200/900 family is the only commercially available chipset solution to provide operators a means to selectively deploy G.fast to new customers in the same system as VDSL2, preventing the forklift upgrade required for alternative solutions.
"Building on our success with Broadcom in launching VDSL solutions, Swisscom continues to pioneer the application of G.fast technology to wireline broadband," said Oliver Lamparter, Swisscom Innovation Product Manager. "We will continue to work together to address challenges and unlock the dramatic potential of evolving copper access technologies. As we consider high-density deployments, Swisscom will look to leverage Broadcom's new end-to-end G.fast solution in our near-term G.fast offerings."
"As one of the first vendors to begin G.fast and vectoring deployments, Broadcom has already made traction in the burgeoning vectoring and G.fast markets," said Jeff Heynen, Infonetics Principal Analyst, Broadband Access and Pay TV. "As operators in Europe and beyond expand both vectoring and G.fast, Infonetics expects that 63 percent of the of the cumulative 179 million VDSL ports shipped globally from 2014 to 2018 will be vectoring-capable."
BCM65200/900 Family Key Features
-- Advanced 28 nanometer (nm) process technology
-- 36 ports of VDSL2 17a
-- Leverages leading process technology and density to reduce VDSL2 power
consumption per port up to 30 percent
-- Multimode and auto-moding support, selectable per channel, simultaneous
support of G.fast, G.vector, VDSL2 and ADSL protocols on a per line
basis

Weckey Releases Version 1.2 of its Apple iPad App and Launches New Features Starting at $100 Per Month
LIBERTY LAKE, Wash., Oct. 21, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Weckey Inc., known for its first-to-market smart guestbook app and visitor management system (available on iPad), launches new features today. Monthly subscriptions start at $100 per month for Basic, with Plus and Pro subscriptions available. New features include - analytics, a custom theme builder and signable attachments.
Noteably, Weckey is the only visitor management system with analytics. Mitch Williams, Weckey President and CEO, believes access to this kind of data is important for businesses, and couldn't be happier with the product's new capabilities. "I always knew Weckey could provide previously unidentifiable data, but when we finally visualized it first-hand - I realized we were on to something people need, but may have never known they needed," Williams said. Analytics help visualize busiest hours and days, most frequent visitors, reasons for visits and frequently visited employees. Williams elaborated, "If you're a business thriving in today's environment, you want visibility on the people in your network. This is why products like Google Analytics, KISSmetrics, and others exist. Weckey provides businesses with tools similar to these, but for data related to traffic on the physical level - which I believe to be equally, and potentially more, important."
Also added to Weckey's growing suite, businesses can customize the app to highlight their brand. "Having the ability to customize and tailor the sign-in experience for your business at a moment's notice, opens up tremendous opportunities for businesses to present themselves well, and make a great first impression," Williams says. Furthermore, businesses can attach signable agreements like NDAs, B2B contracts, etc., for guests to sign as they check-in. Williams states, "there is no longer the risk of forgetting to have a guest sign an NDA when they visit."
Weckey will also roll out CRM integrations, in coming weeks, allowing businesses to sync Weckey with CRM platforms like Salesforce, Base CRM, etc.; guests then, will immediately be entered as contacts. Additionally, Weckey will soon supply customers with an expanded API feature set for third party integrations and the opportunity to create custom visitor badges.

ADAS and Bluesky Survey 30,000 km of Overhead Power Lines Using Laser Mapping Technology
COALVILLE, England, October 21, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
A multi million pound contract to produce the largest ever LiDAR survey undertaken by
an electricity distribution network operator in the UK has been awarded to ADAS and
Bluesky International. The companies have been contracted to conduct an aerial 3D LiDAR
survey of the whole of UK Power Networks' High and Extra High Voltage (HV & EHV) overhead
power lines, which extend to over 30,000 kms.
LiDAR is a remote sensing technology that measures distance by illuminating a target
with a laser and analysing the reflected light to produce high-resolution maps. The
technology is central to the UK Power Networks contract, a three year risk-based tree
clearance programme for the electricity company. The survey assesses the current state of
vegetation near the overhead lines via the use of fully up to date 3D LiDAR images rather
than aerial photography.
Tree related electrical disruptions present the single greatest risk to electricity
supplies. For this reason, electricity industry regulators in many countries require proof
that vegetation management systems are in place to minimise the potential for this type of
incident and the impact on customers.
A major challenge of the contract was the need to complete the survey before autumn
leaf fall started in earnest. Weather conditions and Air Traffic Control restrictions can
sometimes be unpredictable and add to the challenge. However, three fixed wing aircraft,
each fully equipped with the world's most advanced LiDAR sensors, have been in the air
every day since mid July and successfully completed the survey within the strict deadline.
ADAS and Bluesky have a strong track record of working together on similar projects.
The UK Power Network project follows on from a highly successful contract that the
companies delivered for SP Energy Networks in 2013. It involved the use of stereo aerial
photography to assess the amount of vegetation near the overhead lines combined with an
assessment of the number of customers affected which informed a prioritised programme for
resilience clearance.
Through this project, UK Power Networks will be able to demonstrate to both the
industry regulators and their customers that they have invested in the best available
vegetation management system that will enable them to minimise tree related electrical
disruptions.

Update Adds Epson Detail Enhancement for Sharp, Rich Images to Epson PowerLite Pro Cinema 6030UB, Pro Cinema 4030 and Home Cinema 5030UB/5030UBe
LONG BEACH, Calif., Oct. 21, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Underscoring its commitment to delivering high-performance projectors to home theater customers and installers, Epson today released a firmware update http://www.epson.com/detailenhancement that expands the image quality capabilities of several of its award-winning home theater solutions. The update adds Epson's Detail Enhancement feature to its powerful Super Resolution technology to deliver sharp, rich images and is now available for the Epson(®) PowerLite(®) Pro Cinema 6030UB, Pro Cinema 4030, and Home Cinema 5030UB/5030UBe.
While Epson's Super Resolution technology detects the change in color from the edge of an object to the background color and sharpens or defines the image, Epson's Detail Enhancement uses another technique, clarifying the texture and surface appearance of the area within the boundaries of an object. As a result of the firmware update, both video processes work together - one on the edges, the other on the surface area of objects - to increase the fine delicate structure in video images.
"The new firmware update extends the capabilities of several flagship models in an already diverse line-up of 2D/3D Full HD 1080p home theater projectors available from Epson," said Jason Palmer, marketing manager, Epson. "We are delighted to make the firmware available to dealers and end users alike to help customers enjoy a range of multimedia content and immersive and engaging big-screen experience at home."
Customers that currently own an Epson PowerLite Pro Cinema 6030UB, PowerLite Home Cinema 5030UB/5030UBe or PowerLite Pro Cinema 4030 can access the firmware update online in mid-October for download, and can implement the update in a matter of minutes via a PC and USB connection. Detailed information and instructions are available online for customers that opt to perform the update directly. Customers can also contact dealers for access to and assistance with the firmware update.
Any new Epson PowerLite Pro Cinema 6030UB, PowerLite Home Cinema 5030UB/5030UBe or PowerLite Pro Cinema 4030 model manufactured after mid-October will include the firmware update. For more information visit http://www.epson.com/detailenhancement.

Qualcomm Drives 802.11ac 2.0 Ecosystem to Bring Faster Wi-Fi Connectivity to Home Networks, Mobile Devices and Consumer Electronics
- Qualcomm Gains Momentum with 802.11ac 2.0 Solutions: Enables New MU-MIMO Products from AVM, Introduces New Chip for Notebooks and Consumer Electronics -
AMSTERDAM, Oct. 21, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Qualcomm Incorporated (NASDAQ: QCOM) today announced that its subsidiary, Qualcomm Atheros, Inc., is putting high performance Wi-Fi(®) connectivity in consumers' hands and homes with the only end-to-end ecosystem of 802.11ac 2.0 solutions with multi-user multi-input/multi-output (MU-MIMO). Leading home networking manufacturers such as AVM are introducing products based on Qualcomm(®) VIVE(TM) 802.11ac chipsets with Qualcomm(®) MU | EFX MU-MIMO technology, which Qualcomm Atheros introduced earlier this year to greatly improve Wi-Fi performance for the growing number of connected devices on home, business and public networks. Mobile device manufacturers are also preparing smartphones and tablets to take advantage of these advanced features to achieve up to three times faster 11ac Wi-Fi. Further expanding its portfolio of 11ac 2.0 capable chips, Qualcomm Atheros is introducing the QCA9377, which extends the performance benefits of MU | EFX to notebooks, TVs, cameras, and other consumer electronics that are connecting to increasingly crowded Wi-Fi networks. The single-stream 11ac + Bluetooth 4.1 combination chip is designed to provide the best possible performance with reduced power consumption.
Qualcomm VIVE is the only line of 802.11ac 2.0 solutions for networking equipment, consumer electronics, and mobile and computing devices. With more devices connecting via Wi-Fi, Qualcomm VIVE enabled networks with MU | EFX can multi-task like never before - supporting more simultaneous devices to make better use of wireless capacity that is wasted in Wi-Fi networks that serve one device at a time. As a result, Qualcomm MU | EFX helps consumers experience Wi-Fi to its maximum effect, with up to three times faster connections than other 802.11ac solutions currently available.
Showcasing Qualcomm Atheros' leadership in this sector, AVM will introduce a new FRITZ! Box router based on the Qualcomm IPQ and 4-stream 802.11ac with MU-MIMO products, targeting both retail and carrier segments.
"At the Broadband World Forum in Amsterdam, we will show the first over-the-air live demonstration with a FRITZ!Box and Qualcomm Atheros MU-MIMO chipset. The upcoming Wave 2 standard offers higher data throughput and is one of the best wireless LAN for smartphones and tablets," said Peter Faxel, executive vice president of products and technology and member of the board, AVM.
The new QCA9377 enables high-speed Wi-Fi connectivity and enriched media experiences for laptops, notebooks, connected TVs, media adapters, audio, gaming systems, and more. It is also optimized for energy efficiency, which is critical to extending the battery life of portable devices. The software stack offers best-in-class quality, stability and performance with an open source option, and the future-proofed architecture allows for seamless evolution. As part of its commitment to deliver a full line of 802.11ac 2.0 solutions with MU-MIMO, Qualcomm Atheros has enabled mobile customers using its 802.11ac products (QCA6174A and WCN3680B) to include Qualcomm MU | EFX in forthcoming smartphones and tablets - bringing mobile clients one step closer to 11ac 2.0 features.
"Consumers are constantly looking for a faster, more efficient Wi-Fi experience. Qualcomm and companies like AVM are working to ensure that consumers can easily access and enjoy 4k video, gaming and other latency-sensitive activities by delivering reliable high performance connectivity," said Cristiano Amon, executive vice president and co-president of Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. "Qualcomm's Wi-Fi leadership continues with the only MU-MIMO solution ecosystem to span from access points to client devices to help accelerate the performance benefits of Wi-Fi to meet the needs of today's consumers."
Availability
Qualcomm Atheros will be conducting the industry's first over-the-air, end-to-end MU-MIMO demonstration featuring Qualcomm MU | EFX 802.11ac 2.0 enabled networking and client-side chips at Broadband World Forum in Amsterdam, October 21-23.

RS Components Introduces Duo of Integrated Dual-Wavelength Red and Infrared Laser Diodes that Offer Stable Power Output
SYDNEY, Oct. 21, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --Â RS Components <http://au.rs-online.com/> (RS), the trading brand ofElectrocomponents plc <http://www.electrocomponents.com/> (LSE:ECM), the global distributor for engineers, has introduced a pair of new single-chip dual-wavelength red/infrared laser diodes that offer high output characteristics in a compact size. Manufactured by Panasonic, a worldwide leader in optoelectronic semiconductors, these devices are ideal for use in optical disk drives, barcode readers and a multitude of sensing-based applications such as laser distance sensors for industrial use, or flow cytometers in biomedical applications.
The new Panasonic laser diodes <http://www.rs-online.com/designspark/electronics/eng/knowledge-item/design-guidelines-for-panasonic-red-and-infrared-ir-laser-diodes> provide a single-chip solution, eliminating the need for multiple components, with both red and infrared lasers on board a small flat three-pin package. Offering stable power output even under high temperatures, these new dual wavelength laser diodes are roughly 20 to 30 per cent more efficient than conventional laser diodes. In addition, the devices also exhibit exceptional accuracy in laser beam spacing, leading to greater design-in flexibility.
The LNCT22PK01WW and LNCT28PF01WW are MOCVD (Metal-Organic Chemical Vapour Deposition) fabricated 660nm and 780nm band dual-wavelength devices that feature a multi-quantum-well structure that has been adapted to fit an open frame type package to reduce size and weight.
Key specifications of the LNCT22PK01WW / LNCT28PF01WW are: dual wavelengths of 661/661nm (typical) and 785/783nm (typical); output power of 280/300mW (pulse) for red and 380/380mW (pulse) for infrared; and an operating temperature range of-10 to +85 degree Celsius for both devices.
These two new dual-wavelength laser diodes from Panasonic are RoHS compliant and are now available via RS Components in EMEA andAsia Pacific regions.
