Loop Insights $MTRX.ca Announces International Contact Tracing Solution Update

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 7:22 AM on Friday, July 17th, 2020

Announced that it has accelerated conversations for the implementation of its Covid-19 contact tracing solution with government officials, and live event and stadium operators, in North America, Australia, Indonesia, and the U.K., since its launch in June 2020.
Loop’s goal is to leverage this frictionless implementation process to gain government and public sector endorsement at all levels

VANCOUVER, BC, July 17, 2020 – Loop Insights Inc. (TSX.V: MTRX) (the “Company” or “Loop”)—provider of transformative artificial intelligence (“AI”) Internet of Things (“IoT”) solutions—announced that it has accelerated conversations for the implementation of its Covid-19 contact tracing solution with government officials, and live event and stadium operators, in North America, Australia, Indonesia, and the U.K., since its launch in June 2020.

Loop CEO Rob Anson stated: “Receiving this level of interest across verticals and geographical borders is a true testament to Loop’s unique IoT connectivity capabilities. Our core technology has always been built on automation, simplicity and usability. To be able to support the health, safety, and economic recovery of communities is incredibly motivating. Our opportunity to expand Loop’s global reach has never been greater.”

The coronavirus has had a devastating effect on the health and economies of 188 nations. Government officials and business owners are aware that a second wave is coming, and to prepare, they need proper protocols and mandates in place. Loop’s key to success stems from an ability to seamlessly integrate and enhance businesses’ existing solutions. With its SIM-enabled connectivity, and compatibility with up to forty languages, Loop’s contact tracing platform supports fast, scalable deployment anywhere in the world.

Loop’s goal is to leverage this frictionless implementation process to gain government and public sector endorsement at all levels. For government contracts, the Company will gain revenue from onboarding fees per location, an annual software licensing fee with managed service, and ongoing revenue from active user fees. For venue operators, revenue stems from onboarding fees, monthly Software as a Service (SaaS) fees, and ongoing active user fees.

Loop COO Gavin Lee added: “Loop strongly supports the continuation of physical distancing and its implementation in business operations. We understand the need to kickstart economies, but in order to instill confidence back into sports venue and other hospitality experiences, systems must be in place to protect both staff and customers.”

Combining Loop’s IoT and artificial intelligence capabilities with wallet pass technology, creates a digital Covid-19 Contact Card (stored in their Apple or Google wallet). Users tap their mobile device to check in. Check-ins are tracked based on time and location; and if an outbreak is recorded, the platform can provide real-time notifications to an unlimited number of users. The Company’s automated solution is contactless, fast, accurate and scalable—and for those reasons, it is well positioned for global scale.

About Loop Insights: Loop is a Vancouver-based technology company that provides transformative artificial intelligence services and IoT solutions to the brick and mortar retail industry to support its longevity in the face of a growing online consumer culture. At the core of its solution is the Fobi IoT technology, which has the unique ability to connect company-wide data with in-store transactional data in real time. This disruptive capability creates revenue-generating insights, which can be actioned through Loop’s automated personalized marketing platform to increase foot traffic, wallet share, loyalty and spend.

Avicanna $AVCN.ca Announces Participation in a Medical #Cannabis Real-World Evidence Research Study Led by the University Health Network in Partnership with Medical Cannabis by #Shoppers™ using its Rho Phyto™ Advanced Medical Cannabis Formulary of Products

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 8:10 AM on Wednesday, July 15th, 2020

http://www.smallcapepicenter.com/Avicana%20square%20logo.jpg

Rho Phyto portfolio contains a full formulary of products including oil drops, sublingual sprays, capsules, and topicals that have controlled dosing, enhanced absorption and stability studies supported by pre-clinical data which will be available exclusively on the Medical Cannabis by Shoppers™ online portal by the end of July 2020.

First-of-its-kind Canadian study is led by Dr. Hance Clarke, Director of Pain Services at Toronto General Hospital, and will examine the efficacy of a select group of medical cannabis products including Avicanna’s Rho Phyto line of products on patient reported outcomes of pain, sleep and anxiety.

This specific study is aligned and in parallel with Avicanna’s comprehensive clinical program of other real-world evidence studies involving the Rho Phyto products and clinical trials on its pharmaceutical pipeline with world-class, Toronto-based medical institutions.

TORONTO, July 15, 2020 – Avicanna Inc. (“Avicanna” or the “Company“) (TSX: AVCN) (OTCQX: AVCNF) (FSE: 0NN), a biopharmaceutical company focused on the development, manufacturing and commercialization of plant-derived cannabinoid-based products is pleased to announce that its Rho Phyto™ product line of advanced medical cannabis products will be the subject of a Medical Cannabis Real-World Evidence study (“MC-RWE Study“) led by Dr. Hance Clarke of the University Health Network (“UHN“) in Toronto, Canada. The Rho Phyto products were developed in accordance with the recent Health Canada Cannabis 2.0 regulations that allow for more advanced, higher quality, medical cannabis product offerings. These products have been tested for prolonged stability, enhanced absorption, controlled delivery and other properties, in collaboration with Dr. Christine Allen’s research group at the Leslie Dan Faculty of Pharmacy, University of Toronto.

The Rho Phyto medical cannabis product line is a full formulary that includes sublingual sprays, oil drops, capsules, and topicals of various cannabinoid ratios, namely THC and CBD. By offering a variety of delivery systems, the medical community has the possibility to select the appropriate Rho Phyto product to suit a range of medical conditions such as pain relief, which may require either a fast onset of action or prolonged duration of effect over the course of treatment. The products are manufactured under good manufacturing practice (“GMP“) in partnership with MediPharm Labs Inc. to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high-quality products. The manufacture of the Rho Phyto products in accordance with GMP standard allows for data derived from this MC-RWE Study to provide early insights into Avicanna’s ongoing and future directions of pharmaceutical development. Avicanna remains committed to patient safety and product consistency which is why all products subject to the MC-RWE Study are tested by Sigma Analytical and tracked by TruTrace Blockchain Technologies.

Dr. Justin Grant, Avicanna’s Executive Vice President of Scientific Affairs commented, “After 3 years of collaborating with world-class Toronto-based researchers and clinicians including those at the University of Toronto and UHN, we are excited to offer the most consistent formulary of advanced medical cannabis products to prescribers and principal investigators, including Dr. Clarke, to further demonstrate the potential therapeutic efficacy of cannabinoids.”

Avicanna’s Rho Phyto products will be exclusively available to patients through the Medical Cannabis by Shoppers online portal in addition to UHN clinicians through the MC-RWE Study by the end of July 2020.

Augmented reality heads-up displays for cars are finally a real thing

Ready for the next level of displays? The augmented reality head-up display (AR-HUD) of the new #SClass provides loads of #augmentedreality content for #drivingassistance systems and navigation information. #MercedesBenz #MBUX pic.twitter.com/LwGqGJvRjB

By: Jonathan M. Gitlin

When Audi briefed Ars on its newest electric car, the part that most piqued our interest was the news that the Q4 e-tron Sportback will feature an augmented reality heads-up display. As we explained in that article, Audi didn’t feel like elaborating much on the new technology. Perhaps it wishes it had, as it’s going to be beaten to the punch by its deadly rival Mercedes-Benz. When the 2021 S-Class debuts in September, the brand’s flagship sedan will offer an AR HUD, among other tech upgrades.

The automaker has even been forthcoming with some technical info on this latest driver assist. It uses a digital mirror device from Texas Instruments—perhaps no surprise given that TI has been developing automotive AR tech for a while now. The DMD has a resolution of 1.3 megapixels (or megamirrors, to be strictly accurate) and projects onto a 10˚ horizontal, 5˚ vertical aperture HUD, with the image appearing 33 feet (10m) away. (Mercedes-Benz says it’s the equivalent of a 77-inch monitor.)

Unfortunately, Mercedes-Benz hasn’t shared any still images of the AR HUD in action, and there were only a few seconds of video in the b-roll that the company provided. But the automaker did helpfully tweet out a longer video this morning, which we’ve embedded below, as it really is the best way to see how the system works. (If the embedded tweet isn’t showing up for you, you can view it here.)

As you can see, it fuses various sensor inputs from the vehicle like the forward-looking radar as well as optical sensors to alert or inform the driver. That information could be the distance to a car you’re following, or markers delineating the edge of the road in low-light situations, or navigation help via directional arrows that work a bit like the optimal racing line overlay in games like Forza.

I’ll admit it: I’m excited that this tech is finally making its way into production and I’m eager to try it out, although some in the automotive UX world are not entirely convinced that a limited field-of-view HUD is the right way to implement this idea versus a full AR windshield.

That tech was considered unworkable a few years ago, and early practical demos of AR driver assists used goggles instead. But by CES in 2019 there were already static demos from companies like Saint-Gobain Sekurit and the aforementioned TI. A successful implementation will require restraint on the part of the UX designers, with AR elements being used sparingly to avoid information overload that could actually be even more distracting to drivers. But given that the problem of distracted driving is partly a problem of where a driver is looking, AR has the potential to save lives.

IMAGINEAR SIGNS PARTNERSHIP WITH FIRST ESCAPE ROOMS IN AMERICA TO INCORPORATE AUGMENTED REALITY â€“ WITH POTENTIAL GLOBAL EXPANSION

Escape Room NJ, with 3 locations in New Jersey, has executed a partnership agreement to become both a client and reseller of ImagineAR
Escape Room NJ will be first-ever Escape Room in North America to integrate immersive Augmented Reality within their three locations, as well as, offer AR Scavenger Hunts to their consumer and corporate clientele
There are over 2,000 Escape Rooms around the world

VANCOUVER, BCÂ and ERIE Pa., June 30, 2020Â -Â Imagine AR Inc. (IP:CSE) (IPNFF:OTCQB) (“ImagineAR” or “Company”) an Augmented Reality Company that enables businesses, sports teams and organizations to create their own AR campaigns, would like to take this opportunity to provide investors with a mid-year corporate update during this holiday shortened week in which both the Canadian and American stock markets will be closed for their respective independence day holidays.

Though the Company fully expects to resume the release of further news related to significant business development after this week, investors will be happy to hear about new developments in this update.

AN INCREDIBLE BUT NOT SURPRISING 2020 SO FAR FOR IMAGINEAR

Alen Paul Silverrstieen, CEO of ImagineAR, stated “This was the year that, by all expert accounts, was the year that Augmented Reality would begin to make its first commercialization push and it did not disappoint. Despite dramatic geo-political, economic and societal volatility from the start of 2020 resulting in delays to some of our negotiations, we were still able to close a significant financing, announce significant national and global partnerships, and add top notch people to our board and team. It is safe to say that we anticipate significant results to stem from this positioning in the second half of the year and, quite frankly, for the foreseeable future”.

MARKET CAPITALIZATION APPRECIATION IN 2020

The Company’s great progress in 2020, as well as, positioning for growth can best be observed through our market capitalization growth in 2020. At the outset of the year, ImagineAR had a market capitalization of less than $5,000,000. Today, that figure sits at approximately $25,000,000.

Furthermore, liquidity and dollar volume trading in the first quarter was encouraging and showed us signs of promise, which came to fruition at the end of the second quarter with daily dollar volume trading regularly exceeding $500,000 and even surpassing $3,000,000 recently.

Silverrstieen added “With a market cap of approximately $25 million dollars, ImagineAR continues to provide investors with a great opportunity to participate in the anticipated growth of Augmented Reality, which promises to be a disruptive over the next 3 years and then well beyond into the rest of the decade”.

HADO: The Amazing Ways Augmented Reality Is Changing Sport

By: Bernard Marr Contributor

Now that Japanese start-up Meleap created the worldâ€™s first physical e-sport called HADO, gamers have a way to be active while competing in the digital world. HADO is an entirely new experience the company calls techno sports that uses augmented reality (AR) tech and motion sensors without requiring the player to be tethered to a gaming system, controllers, or cables. The company has three AR offerings, including HADO Augmented Sport (Player vs. Player), HADO Monster Battle, and HADO Shoot; they will soon add HADO Kart.

HADO: The Amazing Ways Augmented Reality Is Changing Sport

First Experience to Merge Physical Athletics with AR Technology

In HADO Augmented Sport, you can see how physical the game can be. It resembles dodgeball with players competing in an arena and flipping and bending to avoid being hit by the opposing team’s energy balls. Competitors can play 1v1, 2v2, or 3v3. Each team stays on one side of the court. The goal is to hit the other team with as many energy balls as possible to drain them of their “lives” and get points during a timed event.

Players can defend themselves with shields and barriers. If the shields get hit, they will weaken and ultimately need to be recharged. If you remember playing dodgeball, there is a lot of ducking and diving in HADO, just as there is in the traditional dodgeball game. Quick reflexes and coordination are necessary to avoid being hit. Players also have the option to alter their play characteristics to become more defensive (shields get stronger, but a slower recharge time for attacks) or offensive (quick recharge time after attacks, but shields are weaker). In addition to shield thickness and recharge speed, players can alter the bullet size. These adjustments can allow for different players on the same team to play different strategic roles in the competition.

AR of HADO

The digital experience is enabled by an AR device that players wear on their heads and a motion sensor the size of a smartphone worn on the wrist or forearm. Players are able to move unrestricted in the real environment while interacting with the digital items they can see through the AR headset. This is not a sport played in your living room, but in 60+ arenas in 15 countries that give ample space for the competition similar to other physical sports such as volleyball and basketball. AR tech is also lighter weight, so players can dive and move without feeling weighed down. The possibilities allowed through AR make applications for HADOâ€™s e-sport virtually unlimited.

Physical Fitness with HADO

HADO requires players who are physically agile and have gaming skills as well. Players who succeed at the game will be in constant motion while diving, bending, and squatting to evade the energy balls hurled by the other team. When players shoot energy balls, they use a punching motion. Players must have great hand-eye coordination and be adept at blocking from a variety of angles. There are VR games such as Sparc and Audioshield that can help players with hand-eye coordination training required to be good at HADO.

Global Expansion

HADO has held several competitions and events in Asia, including the HADO World Cup tournament where the world’s top players compete for a cash prize and bragging rights as the HADO World Champions. There are plans to expand globally by 2020. Currently, 600,000 users have experienced HADO sports.

HADO is launching a pro AR league in Japan this year as well. Tournaments are planned every week and will award a cash prize to the winners. The first official season of the pro league begins in the third quarter of 2019.

As this new concept of e-sports gains popularity, a HADO arena might open near you, where you will be able to compete with other players locally to see what it’s all about. Until then, you can watch YouTube to see players in action.

Not only did Meleap make many childhood dreams come true with the creation of HADO and by bringing virtual and physical realms together, but they proved that AR technology and athletic sports can be combined for an entirely new experience. It will be interesting to watch as others apply these concepts to other sports competitions and use cases in a variety of industries.
