SPARK Microsystems Teams with UWB Alliance to Test UWB Coexistence

SPARK Microsystems

SPARK Microsystems, a Canadian fabless semiconductor company specializing in next-generation ultra-wideband (UWB), and UWB Alliance, an international non-profit organization dedicated to the promotion and growth of the UWB industry, have initiated a joint effort to test the coexistence and aggregation capabilities of UWB technology in environments where other UWB or other wireless protocols and radio devices are in use. This first phase includes testing the interoperability and compatibility of a pair of UWB technologies operating in a single environment simultaneously with UWB transceivers from SPARK Microsystems and other industry players. “Generating empirical data through scientific testing is critical for understanding how UWB devices can coexist with other devices,” said Benjamin Rolfe, CTO, UWB Alliance. “The testing we are doing with SPARK Microsystems will enable the industry to progress forward on collaborative coexistence strategies that optimize spectrum sharing while minimizing interference. It will also provide standards-making bodies with factual documentation to aid in amending or modifying spectrum rules, allowing more UWB-enabled solutions to come to market.” Preliminary results of phase one with multiple UWB devices indicate generally good coexistence performance, with the tested devices showing no measurable performance impact from other interfering UWB devices. Testing of multiple devices in aggregation was also conducted. Phase two will expand the coexistence testing to include UWB with U-NII devices in 6 GHz (802.11ax). The full results will become available shortly after the conclusion of the testing. “SPARK Microsystems and UWB Alliance together recognize the importance of coexistence with other wireless devices for widespread market adoption of UWB technology across various markets such as consumer, healthcare, connected cars, smart home and smart factory,” said Frederic Nabki, Co-Founder and CTO, SPARK Microsystems. “We anticipate the results of the testing will educate and inform cross-industry stakeholders on how UWB uses the spectrum in aggregation while coexisting with other radio devices.” About SPARK Microsystems SPARK Microsystems is a fabless semiconductor company that is leading the way towards ultra-low power wireless communications for consumer and IoT-connected devices. With its patented technologies, SPARK Microsystems is bringing to market a high-performance wireless transceiver that allows for orders of magnitude improved power consumption, latency and more accurate ranging and positioning, while providing higher data rates than competing technologies.

OPPO

LONDON, UK - Media OutReach - 8 July 2022 - On the famous vibrant grass courts of Wimbledon, inspiration is front and centre, thanks to this year’s tennis stars wowing fans across the globe. For the athletes they’re inspired by the overwhelming support of their energetic crowd. For the fans, seeing the hero tennis stars they admire inspires them to push the boundaries of human achievement. To mark the centenary of Wimbledon’s Centre Court, OPPO has created an Assisted Reality (AR) experience based on its newest CybeReal 2.0 technology, giving fans a unique viewpoint of the beloved Grand Slam. OPPO immortalises 100 years of Wimbledon’s Centre Court OPPO has returned as the global partner of Wimbledon for the fourth consecutive year, empowering tennis fans to capture the authentic magic of the court with its advanced imaging technology. OPPO’s new brand proposition, Inspiration Ahead, champions overcoming challenges and adversity with determination and a positive attitude, which aligns with the ethos of many of the world’s favourite tennis stars. Wimbledon showcases worldwide the necessity of growth and evolution against stagnation. OPPO x Wimbledon This year, available exclusively for fans attending the tournament, OPPO’s AR experience will give fans an inside look into the eclectic history of Wimbledon. The experience allows tennis fans to drop in the iconic athletes from across the decades into their AR environment and hear first-hand the moments that have cemented Wimbledon’s legacy. The experience was created using OPPO’s AR platform, CybeReal 2.0. OPPO CybeReal 2.0 AR Experience for 100-year of Wimbledon Centre Court CybeReal 2.0 is underpinned by our latest spatial computing and localisation technology, which can provide highly accurate position and orientation but lower power consumption with a single capture of the physical environment. The self-developed 3D reconstruction technology achieved consumer-level data collection of real-world and cloud-based reconstruction of its virtual replica, all within few hours for Wimbledon court. This can be achieved on OPPO handsets, taking place this time on the flagship device, the OPPO Find X5 Pro. Innovation is threaded throughout all facets of OPPO and sits at the core of the company’s ethos. Technological advancements, such as the dedicated imaging NPU MariSilicon X, are a prime example of OPPO’s commitment to elevating users’ experiences.

With up-levelled photography and videography capabilities, tennis lovers can easily capture the awe-inspiring scenes on the court with brilliant HDR quality. MariSilicon X’s computational power brings true-to-life imaging experiences to reveal the subtle nuances of action at Wimbledon. With the breakneck speeds of the serves at Wimbledon and the fast-paced movement of the players, smartphones have notoriously been known not to capture the authentic intensity of the Grand Slam matches. The Find X5 Pro solves this issue with its Ultra-Clear Snapshot technology in tandem with the industry-first Five-Axis Optical Image Stabilisation (OIS) and three-degrees anti-shake technology for impressive results without the lag. Shot on OPPO Find X5 Pro: Wimbledon Centre Court Looking to the future, OPPO’s committed to ensuring tennis lovers around the world can experience the thrills and the excitement of the elite championship.

Hong Kong Baptist University Symphony Orchestra to hold Annual Gala Concert featuring AI virtual choir, AI virtual dancers, and an AI media artist

Hong Kong Baptist University

HONG KONG SAR - Media OutReach - 6 July 2022 - The Hong Kong Baptist University Symphony Orchestra (HKBU Symphony Orchestra) will present an innovative performance showcasing human creativity alongside artificial intelligence at its Annual Gala Concert, to be held on 14 July (Thursday) at 8:00pm in the Hong Kong City Hall. Poster for the HKBU Symphony Orchestra’s Annual Gala Online Concert Dubbed “ A Lovers’ Reunion ”, the Concert echoes the celebration of the 25th anniversary of Hong Kong’s reunification with the motherland. As the first human-machine collaborative performance of its kind in the world, the Concert will give the audience a brand new symphonic experience driven by the integration of cutting-edge AI technologies. The AI technologies developed for this performance are provided by researchers from HKBU’s Augmented Creativity Lab led by Professor Guo Yike, Vice-President (Research and Development). Professor Guo is the project leader of a research project entitled “ Building Platform Technologies for Symbiotic Creativity in Hong Kong ” – a HK$52.8 million research fund awarded by the Theme-based Research Scheme (11th round) under the Research Grants Council (RGC) for a period of five years. The team comprises Professor Johnny M Poon, deputy project coordinator; Dr Liu Qifeng, Associate Professor of Practice, Dr Xue Wei, Assistant Professor, and Dr Chen Jie, Assistant Professor of the Department of Computer Science at HKBU. The HKBU Symphony Orchestra will share the stage with an AI virtual choir to perform a newly arranged choral-orchestral version of the song Pearl of the Orient. It will be the world’s first AI choir to perform a choral piece with Chinese lyrics. The AI choir was developed and “trained” by scientists and artists from the Augmented Creativity Lab at HKBU. The team has also trained an AI artist to create a cross-media visual narrative based on the lyrics and music to accompany the choral piece. The audience is invited to share the AI’s imagination of Hong Kong as the Pearl of the Orient. Another highlight of the Concert is a ballet performance featuring AI virtual dancers in Ravel’s Daphnis et Chloé, accompanied live by the HKBU Symphony Orchestra. The ideas for the choreography come from the natural world, which provides dance movements inspired by a newly discovered species of box jellyfish in Hong Kong. In collaboration with professional dancers from the Hong Kong Dance Company, the AI-generated dancers have been trained to perform the ballet with movement-data collected by HKBU scientists. The Concert will also spotlight the artistic prowess of our award-winning student musicians in the performances of Saint-Saëns’s Introduction and Rondo Capriccioso in A minor, Op. 28; Borne’s Fantaisie brillante sur ‘Carmen’; and Lauryn Kurniawan’s Rasa for string quartet and gamelan. Professor Guo Yike said: “HKBU is dedicated to building a world-class AI art-tech platform that will drive a new revolution that transforms the creative and cultural industries. It will enable Hong Kong to assume a leading position in art-tech on the global stage. The first human-machine collaborative performance of its kind in the world presented by HKBU at the Gala Concert is an important outcome of the ‘Building Platform Technologies for Symbiotic Creativity in Hong Kong’ research project. It is also a milestone of AI research revealing the unlimited potential of human-machine symbiotic creativity.” Professor Johnny M Poon, who is also the music director and conductor of the HKBU Symphony Orchestra and the Collegium Musicum Hong Kong, said: “In addition to celebrating HKBU’s young musicians, the innovative concert showcases how the University is using technology to push the envelope of human imagination in the arts and cultural sphere. “By leveraging our established strengths in both the arts and sciences, HKBU is taking a transdisciplinary approach that will advance the development of the arts, culture and creative media in Hong Kong. Our art-tech research also enables musicians and artists to go beyond the traditional forms and interact with the audience in brand new ways.” Contact Details Communication and Public Relations Office Wong Suk-ling +852 3411 2119 hkbunews@hkbu.edu.hk

In addition, Betbeard offers a 100% match bonus on your first deposit, making it the perfect choice for those looking for the safest online casino for real money. What Bitcoin Casinos Accept USA Players? When it comes to finding the safest online casino for real money, there are a few things you need to take into account. The first thing is the licensing of the casino. A lot of casinos are licensed by the Malta Gaming Authority or the UK Gambling Commission, which ensures that the casino is following all the necessary regulations. The second thing you need to take into account is the security of the casino. Most casinos use SSL encryption to protect your personal and financial information. The third thing you need to take into account is the customer support offered by the casino. Some casinos have live chat support, while others only offer email support. Although some betting sites have no live chat and expect you to contact them via email, the best bitcoin casinos offer 24/7 customer service, thousands of slots and lucrative casino bonuses. How do I Use Bitcoin Online Casino? Bitcoin casinos are becoming more and more popular, as they offer a convenient and secure way to gamble online. However, if you've never used a Bitcoin casino before, you may be wondering how to go about using one. The first thing you need to do is choose a casino that accepts Bitcoin. Many different casinos accept Bitcoin, so make sure to do your research before choosing one. Once you've found a casino that looks good to you, create an account and deposit some funds into it. Once you have funds in your account, you can start playing the slot games on offer. Most Bitcoin casinos will offer a wide range of slots and table games, so you should be able to find something that you enjoy playing. If you're not sure how to play a particular game, most casinos will offer tutorials or demo versions that you can try out. When you're ready to withdraw your winnings, simply request a withdrawal from the casino and they will send the funds to your Bitcoin wallet. Withdrawals can sometimes take a few hours to process, but once they're complete, you'll be able to spend your winnings however you like. Are Bitcoin Games Fair? When it comes to online gambling, fairness is always a major concern for players. Thankfully, Bitcoin casinos use a technology called provably fair to ensure that all their games are completely fair. Provably fair is a system that allows players to verify the fairness of each game they play. This is done by using cryptographic algorithms to generate a random number for each game. This number can then be checked against the casino's server to ensure that it hasn't been tampered with. This system provides complete transparency and assurance that the games being played are fair. So, if you're wondering whether Bitcoin games are fair, the answer is a resounding yes! Are Bitcoin Casinos Legal? This is a question that doesn't have a straightforward answer, as the legality of Bitcoin casinos depends on your country of residence. In some countries, such as the UK, Malta, and the USA, online gambling is perfectly legal and regulated. However, in other countries, such as the UAE, online gambling is not currently legal. That being said, even in countries where online gambling is not currently legal, there are no laws specifically prohibiting the use of Bitcoin casinos. So, while the legality of Bitcoin casinos is a bit of a grey area, it's generally safe to say that they are legal in most countries. Do I have to Pay Tax on My Winnings? Again, this is a question that depends on your country of residence. In some countries, such as the UK, all gambling winnings are tax-free. However, in other countries, such as the USA, you may be required to pay taxes on your winnings. It's always a good idea to check with your local tax authority to find out what the rules are in your country. That way, you can be sure that you're paying any taxes that may be due on your winnings. How do you Gamble with Bitcoins? Gambling with Bitcoins is just like gambling with any other currency. All you need to do is find a casino that accepts Bitcoin and create an account. Then, you can deposit some funds into your account and start playing crypto casino games. When you're ready to withdraw your winnings, simply request a withdrawal from the casino and they will send the funds to your Bitcoin wallet. Withdrawals can sometimes take a few hours to process, but once they're complete, you'll be able to spend your winnings however you like. Cryptocurrency casinos and trusted bitcoin casinos strive to pay winnings as fast as possible to retain their customers longer. Are there any Legit Crypto Casinos? Yes, there are plenty of legit crypto casinos out there. However, as with any online casino, it's important to do your research before choosing one. Make sure to read reviews from other players and check out the casino's licensing and security measures. Once you've found a casino that looks good to you, create an account and deposit some funds. Then, you can start playing the casino's games and enjoying yourself. If you have any questions, most casinos will have customer support teams that you can contact for assistance. What are Blockchain Casinos? Blockchain casinos are online casinos that use blockchain technology to provide a fair and secure gaming environment. Blockchain is a distributed database that allows for transparent and secure data storage. This means that all the data stored on the blockchain is publicly available and cannot be tampered with. This makes blockchain an ideal platform for online gambling, as it provides a fair and transparent environment for all players. There are many blockchain casinos out there, offering a wide variety of games to choose from. Do Crypto Casinos Offer Welcome Bonuses? Yes, crypto casinos do offer welcome bonuses. These bonuses are typically given as a percentage of your first deposit, and they can give you a nice boost to start your gaming experience. However, it's important to read the terms and conditions of any bonus before claiming it, as some bonuses may have wagering requirements or other restrictions. What is the Best Crypto Wallet for Gambling? The best crypto wallet for gambling is the one that meets your needs and preferences. There are many different wallets out there, so take some time to research and find the one that's right for you. Some things you may want to consider are the security features, ease of use, and whether or not the wallet supports your country of residence. Once you've found a wallet that looks good to you, create an account and deposit some funds. Then, you can start playing the casino's games and enjoying yourself. Then to deposit in a casino you need to click the button Send and choose bitcoin, from there you need to scan the QR code on the casino deposit page. Withdrawals are fast as well, a typical bitcoin transaction takes around 14 minutes, while an average USDt transaction will be fulfilled in 2 minutes. Many bitcoin casinos use Provably Fair technology, which allows you to verify each roll result and make sure the casino is not cheating you. What are the Best Crypto Slots? The best crypto slots are the ones that offer a fair and secure gaming environment. Blockchain casinos are a great option, as they use blockchain technology to provide a fair and transparent environment for all players. Netent, Microgaming, and Belatra all offer amazing crypto slots. There are other slot providers such as Booming Games, Habanero, iSoftBet, and many others. It all comes down to what you're looking for in a slot game. Africa Gold 2 by Belatra is one of the most loved bitcoin slots as it has an African theme, high RTP, and huge potential wins. Another great option is the Aztec Magic Deluxe by BGaming which can be played in almost every online casino. This slot has an Aztec theme and offers a max win of 9,000x your stake. Netent offers Gonzo's Quest for bitcoin players with an RTP of 96.0% and a max win of 5,000x your stake. Top crypto casinos have exclusive games just for them, for example, Bitstarz has dedicated slots that are available only for its site. The Bitcoin gambling industry is developing rapidly and there is a rapid number of software providers offering all sorts of crypto gambling products. Crypto Casino vs. Regular Casino? The main difference between a crypto casino and a regular casino is that a crypto casino uses cryptocurrency as its primary method of payment. This means that all deposits and withdrawals are made in cryptocurrency. Bitcoin is the most commonly accepted cryptocurrency, but there are a few casinos that also accept Ethereum, Litecoin, and other altcoins. In addition to using cryptocurrency, crypto casinos also tend to have lower fees, higher levels of security, and faster transaction times. This makes them a great option for those looking for a more efficient and secure gambling experience. Another difference is that crypto casinos often offer welcome bonuses and other promotions such as free spins that regular casinos don't always offer. This is because they're trying to attract new players and keep them coming back. Best bitcoin casinos even offer weekly cashback based on your losses, which will extend your online bitcoin gambling experience. Finally, crypto casinos tend to have a wider variety of games than regular casinos. This is because they're not limited by the same regulations and restrictions that regular casinos have. So, if you're looking for a more diverse gaming experience, a crypto casino is the way to go.

Here are just a few: Gamblers Anonymous: Gamblers Anonymous is a 12-step program for people who have a gambling problem. The program includes meetings and support groups that can help you stop gambling. National Council on Problem Gambling: The National Council on Problem Gambling is a non-profit organization that offers resources and support for problem gamblers. Top bitcoin casinos offer assistance, and the gambling industry is supporting problem gamblers by encouraging them to use software providers that will ban them from bitcoin casino gambling. These are just a few of the many resources available to help those with a gambling problem. If you or someone you know needs help, don't hesitate to reach out for assistance. Bitcoin Gambling Industry Overview The Bitcoin gambling industry is growing rapidly. In just a few short years, it has gone from a niche market to a multi-billion dollar industry.

This is because they offer several advantages over traditional online casinos such as security, a greater number of slot games, and more relaxed rules for players.
