Announced that the Kontrol BioCloud fully functioning prototype was able to operate in real-time and has received positive lab test results
“Following lab testing, we have demonstrated that our fully operating prototype, previously announced on August 10, 2020, can detect COVID-19 specific components in air samples under a controlled experiment,” says Paul Ghezzi, Chief Executive Officer of Kontrol
The company has now tested both its proprietary detection chamber as announced on August 19, 2020 and its fully operating prototype
Following testing with the live COVID-19 virus, the Company anticipates that it will be in a position to move to commercialization and production of operating units shortly thereafter
TORONTO, ON / August 27, 2020 / Kontrol Energy Corp. (CSE:KNR)(OTCQB:KNRLF)(FSE:1K8) (“Kontrol” or “Company“) is pleased to announce that the Kontrol BioCloud (or “BioCloud“) fully functioning prototype was able to operate in real-time and has received positive lab test results.
“Following lab testing, we have demonstrated that our fully operating prototype, previously announced on August 10, 2020, can detect COVID-19 specific components in air samples under a controlled experiment,” says Paul Ghezzi, Chief Executive Officer of Kontrol. “This was a critical milestone that we achieved as it ensures the safety and operating capability of BioCloud and we can now move quickly to testing against the live aerosolized COVID-19 virus. We remain on track with achieving our specific milestones and anticipate live COVID-19 virus testing during the week of August 31.”
The controlled testing was conducted by the lab of independent consultant, Dr. David Heinrichs, PhD (Heinrichs Laboratory) – experts in the study of Microbiology and Immunology.
Next Major Milestones
The company has now tested both its proprietary detection chamber as announced on August 19, 2020 and its fully operating prototype. Following testing with the live COVID-19 virus, the Company anticipates that it will be in a position to move to commercialization and production of operating units shortly thereafter.
We continue to fund all BioCloud technology development through internal cash generation and Kontrol will not raise capital to complete testing and pre-commercialization work.
When testing against the live COVID-19 virus the Company seeks to establish the lower detection limits of BioCloud and set final parameters for applications based on room size and number of individuals. These lower detection limits will be part of commercialization specifications.
Commercialization Plans
“We are excited to have a working prototype and a successful result given all the hard work that has gone into the BioCloud,” says Gary Saunders VP of Kontrol. “We have sourced all the components required for commercialization and have our supply chain ready to go. The Canadian Government has recently announced $2 billion in federal funding to help schools reopen safely. BioCloud has the potential to be an important tool in creating safe spaces by seeking to detect for the virus and assessing the effectiveness of HVAC system improvements by continuously sampling air in real-time.”
The Company anticipates a selling price in the range of $12,000 US per BioCloud unit based on the current supply chain components. The detection chamber is replaceable and represents a potential secondary source of commercialized revenue for Kontrol. Any time the detection chamber comes into contact with the COVID virus it must be disposed of safely and replaced.
New Applications beyond COVID-19
During testing the Company has determined that BioCloud has the capability to detect other airborne viruses in addition to COVID-19. This determination was made based on working with the independent lab consultants and a review of the detection mechanism and specifications. While COVID-19 is the most pressing concern for creating safe spaces, other airborne viruses may have similar characteristics that BioCloud may be able to detect.
About Kontrol BioCloud
BioCloud is a real-time analyzer designed to detect airborne viruses. It has been designed to operate as a safe space technology by sampling the air quality over time. With a proprietary detection chamber that can be replaced as needed, viruses are detected, and an alert system is created in the Cloud or over local intranet. BioCloud has been designed for spaces where individuals gather including classrooms, retirement homes, hospitals, mass transportation and others. It can be an important technology which supports the entire system of individual testing and contact tracing.
The Company is not making any express or implied claims that its product has the ability to eliminate, cure or contain the COVID-19 (or SARS-2 Coronavirus) at this time.

Announced that its cashback, loyalty and engagement platform, KABN KASH (www.kabnkash.com) is ready to begin its open trials and allow North American consumers and businesses to receive cashback from all of their online purchases at participating KABN KASH retailers
KABN KASH platform will initially be available through Liquid Avatar’s Early Adopter program (www.liquidavatar.com), KABN’s icon based digital identity platform, and will then roll out to KABN’s Visa Card program (www.kabncard.com) and online directly through KABN KASH’s website.
With over 175 major North American brand name online retailers available at launch and growing, the Company is offering consumers the ability to shop and earn cashback from great brands like Walmart, Nike, Saucony, Staples, Lenovo, Sephora, Levi’s, Fanatics, Ancentry.ca, NHL Store, NFL Store, Saks 5th Avenue, Bloomingdales, AllSaints, Lookfantastic, Agoda, Enterprise, Decathlon, Viator, Stubhub and many more
TORONTO, ON / August 27, 2020 / KABN Systems NA Holdings Corp. (CSE:KABN) (the “Company” or “KABN” or “KABN North America“), a Canadian Fintech company that specializes in continuous online identity verification, management and monetization in Canada and the US, is pleased to announce that its cashback, loyalty and engagement platform, KABN KASH (www.kabnkash.com) is ready to begin its open trials and allow North American consumers and businesses to receive cashback from all of their online purchases at participating KABN KASH retailers.
The KABN KASH platform will initially be available through Liquid Avatar’s Early Adopter program (www.liquidavatar.com), KABN’s icon based digital identity platform, and will then roll out to KABN’s Visa Card program (www.kabncard.com) and online directly through KABN KASH’s website. The Company also has interest from 3rd parties for white label versions of the platform.
With over 175 major North American brand name online retailers available at launch and growing, the Company is offering consumers the ability to shop and earn cashback from great brands like Walmart, Nike, Saucony, Staples, Lenovo, Sephora, Levi’s, Fanatics, Ancentry.ca, NHL Store, NFL Store, Saks 5th Avenue, Bloomingdales, AllSaints, Lookfantastic, Agoda, Enterprise, Decathlon, Viator, Stubhub and many more. Merchant programs differ and KABN KASH is working with its partners to find new and innovative ways to create value for users.
When a registered Liquid Avatar, KABN Card or KABN KASH user purchases from a KABN KASH retailer, KABN earns a commission which it splits with the purchaser, creating value for the Company and our users. Since KABN users are verified individuals, over time it can become potentially easier to create custom baskets of offers to suit an individual’s needs. Unlike points and many other loyalty programs, users receive real money as the reward for shopping.
“Providing our users with cashback offers from leading online retailers reinforces the value proposition of the Company, and can potentially create a healthy revenue stream,” said Michael Konikoff, CRO “Our goal is to continue to create new, unique and enhanced retailer relationships as well as increase the opportunities for users to earn cashback.”
In a September 9, 2014 article, The Wall Street Journal reported that Rakuten paid an estimated $1 Billion USD in cash for leading cashback program Ebates, which at the time had approximately 2.5 Million users, each spending up to $1,200 per year through the system. The purchase price was based on an estimated value of $400 USD per user.
According to Dosh and The Center for Generational Kinetics in their report, Gen Z and Millennials as Customers and Trend Driver, published April 2020, they found the following:
Digital cashback rewards can be used to not only influence new buying behaviors but they can also solidify existing consumer bases.
Millennials are the most excited about using cashback app offers and are more likely than any other generation to shop at a store that instantly gives cashback through an app instead of shopping at their regular store.
A significant number of Gen X, Millennials and Gen Z all reported that cashback offers linked to a card would make them shop more at stores that offered such cashback rewards (over 80% for each of the generations).
Instant cashback apps are top-of-mind in today’s digital marketplace. Most Americans (70%) are willing to download an instant cashback app. Among Millennials, that willingness jumps to 75%.
Two thirds of Millennials are likely to download an instant cashback app just to see which retailers participate and how much they can save.
The majority of Americans (82%) will shop more frequently at a store they haven’t been to in a while if they are alerted about direct cashback offers.
Cashback offers also increase online sales. 74% of Gen Z and 70% of Millennials spend more money online if they know they will instantly receive 5% cash back.
Millennials are the most likely generation to have, use and download an instant cashback app.
“KABN North America is focused on providing opportunities for our verified users and to ensure that they are in control of their online identity and data,” said Ben Kessler, CEO. “KABN KASH provides a unique way for users to monetize their “known” status through Liquid Avatar and our other products.”
KABN Systems NA Holdings Corp. through its wholly owned subsidiary KABN Systems North America Inc. focuses on the verification, management and monetization of digital identity, empowering users to control and benefit from its use of their online identity. KABN propriety technology suite includes 4 key products:
Liquid Avatar allows users to create high quality digital icons representing their online personas. These icons, in conjunction with KABN ID, allows users to manage and control their Digital Identity and to use Liquid Avatars to share public and permission based private data when they want and with whom they want. www.liquidavatar.com
KABN ID is an Always On, biometric and blockchain based digital identity validation and verification platform allowing users to continuously and confidently prove themselves throughout the online community.
KABN Card is a Visa approved prepaid card program allowing users to manage both digital and fiat currencies and earn cashback and other loyalty incentives. www.kabncard.com
KABN KASH is a cashback, loyalty and engagement program that powers the KABN revenue ecosystem.
KABN provides its products and services at no cost to consumers and generates revenues through permission-based partner programs. www.kabnkash.com

Company expands its AI technologies and COVID-19 screening solutions by expanding into the Film and Television Industry in Vancouver, British Columbia
ompany also signed the first contract with a Vancouver based production company, Bob Industries LLC, to provide COVID-19 test kits and completed its first COVID-19 testing for the production company
With these potential partnerships and the launch of the new COVID-19 pre-screening and screening tools, Datametrex enters the film and television industry
TORONTO, Aug. 26, 2020 — Datametrex AI Limited (the “Company” or “Datametrex”) (TSXV: DM, FSE: D4G, OTC: DTMXF) expands its AI technologies and COVID-19 screening solutions by expanding into the Film and Television Industry in Vancouver, British Columbia.
The Company also signed the first contract with a Vancouver based production company, Bob Industries LLC, to provide COVID-19 test kits and completed its first COVID-19 testing for the production company. With these potential partnerships and the launch of the new COVID-19 pre-screening and screening tools, Datametrex enters the film and television industry.
Vancouver is the third largest production centre in North America, worth CDN $3.2 Billion during 2018/19, according to Creative BC. British Columbia is home to several world-class Film and TV studios, includingBridge Studios, Mammoth Studios, Vancouver Film Studios, North Shore Studios, Ironwood Studios, Canadian Motion Picture Park, and The Crossing Studios.
These facilities produce, on average, approximately 65+ movies and 55+ TV series annually, as well as hundreds of other filming days for commercials, TV pilots and other features. This industry generates over 42,000 direct and indirect jobs in Film and TV production, with more than 80 percent located in Metro Vancouver. British Columbia is world-renowned as a versatile and dependable hub for motion picture production.
Total film and TV production in Canada represent $8.92 Billion in production volume and full-time equivalent jobs represent 179,000 workers. When production was shut down in March 2020, Vancouver and area had 46 productions filming and that does not include the TV commercial market. Each of the productions would have a minimum of 100-person film crew.
As the current pandemic continues to impact our world, and with health risks in the film industry, Datametrex is contributing to the health and safety of film organizations. An article that CNBC posted on August 22, 2020, mentions that Solstice Studios is moving a feature film production to Canada, even though it was supposed to film in the U.S., because of available coronavirus testing, making Canada an attractive location for filming.1
This shows that Canada can be an advocate for the Film industry, as we have testing and labs already set up throughout. Additionally, Canada has far fewer instances of coronavirus. The country reported an average of less than 400 new coronavirus cases per day over the past week, compared with more than 46,400 in the U.S., according to data compiled by Johns Hopkins University.
“With the changing nature of the pandemic and worldwide regulations, it is essential that the solutions we develop at Datametrex are flexible and accurate,” said Marshall Gunter, CEO of Datametrex. “With our pre-screening and screening tools, this industry can resume and provide us with the much needed entertainment that this newly indoor, online-based culture requires.”
These tools were developed as a direct response to customer needs and the ever-changing physical distancing recommendations, safety guidelines, and workplace flexibility initiatives being observed across North America and around the globe. Datametrex anticipates that it will have little or no upfront costs associated with importing and selling these test kits.
About Datametrex Datametrex AI Limited is a technology-focused with exposure to Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Nexalogy (www.nexalogy.com). Datametrex’s mission is to provide tools that support companies in fulfilling their operational goals, including Health and Safety, with predictive and preventive technologies.

Apple plans augmented reality content to boost TV+ video service
Apple Inc. is planning to add augmented reality content to its Apple TV+ streaming video service, seeking new ways to attract and retain subscribers and drive interest in AR technology
In the new feature, elements of a TV show, like characters or objects, would be displayed on a viewer’s phone or tablet and integrated into the surrounding environment
By: Mark Gurman, Bloomberg News
For example, someone watching a moon-walking scene in the Apple show “For All Mankind” might be able to see a virtual lunar rover on their device’s display, seemingly perched atop their living room coffee table. The option would serve as bonus content akin to the director commentary or trailer that accompany a movie download and would be accessed from Apple’s TV app on the iPhone or iPad.
The AR feature is expected to debut next year, ahead of an Apple headset in 2022 that will be built around augmented and virtual reality, said the people, who asked not to be identified because they weren’t authorized to discuss the plan publicly. A release of the TV+ feature had previously been set for later this year, but the effects of the coronavirus pandemic on software development and film production impeded that goal. Apple could ultimately decide to scrap the plan, the people said. An Apple spokesman declined to comment.
Bonus content has been one of several ways that Apple has been seeking to make TV+ more valuable and keep people subscribed. Apple is preparing to introduce podcasts related to existing TV+ shows, Bloomberg has reported. The company is also developing a series of subscription bundles dubbed Apple One, which would include TV+ along with discounted access to other services like Apple Music and Apple Arcade mobile games. Last week, Apple debuted the first TV+ video bundle, offering customers who subscribe to the Apple service a discounted rate on a package of CBS All Access and Showtime.
The Cupertino, California-based company launched TV+ last year for $4.99 a month, but many customers are still on a free year of service that comes with the purchase of an Apple product. The first trial accounts will expire just weeks after the next iPhones are set to debut in October. The company is considering keeping a free access offer to lure new subscribers but with a reduced period of time, the people said.
While increasing subscription revenue is a key strategy for Apple now, AR is central to the company’s future devices. Some of the upcoming iPhones will include the Lidar 3-D scanners used in the latest iPad Pro, making AR apps quicker to load and giving them a better sense of their environment, people familiar with the products have said.

For 2022, Apple is preparing to launch a headset that mixes augmented and virtual reality with a focus on gaming, video consumption and virtual meetings, Bloomberg has reported. An AR-only pair of glasses is planned for as early as 2023. The AR feature for TV+ would give Apple more content to show off on the future products when they debut. Currently, Apple’s only consumer AR features on the iPhone are the Measure app and Animojis. The company otherwise relies on third-party developers to provide AR tools.
