Modern Living with kathy ireland presents an exclusive interview with Robert Lotter, CEO and founder of My Mobile Watchdog.

LOS ANGELES – February 9, 2016 – Modern Living with kathy ireland announces an exclusive interview with Robert Lotter, CEO and founder of My Mobile Watchdog, an app that helps parents keep their children secure as they explore the world with a mobile device.

Mr. Lotter talked about some of the misuses of mobile devices that parents should be concerned about during the segment. He said, “The number one problem that we have today is something called sexting. Three out of seven children actually transmit inappropriate content back and forth to each other. Of course, we also have cyber bullying. We have inappropriate website access and a lot of the social networking issues. But prevalent today, the most serious one, is the sexting issue.”

He continued by discussing how his app helps parents stay on top of what their children are doing on their mobile devices. He said, “My Mobile Watchdog was designed from the beginning to give parents peace of mind, to keep their children safe, and to know they are safe. We do that by deploying seven different kinds of technology. We monitor everything on the device. We take that information and we archive it. We can search it and apply rules to it so the parents can have alerts.”

JL Haber, Vice President of Programming for the show added, “With technology comes a lot of freedom and this leaves children vulnerable. My Mobile Watchdog helps parents keep their children safe on their mobile devices.”

BUFFALO, NY – 09 Feb, 2016 – Avalon Document Services, a national provider of eDiscovery, managed services, and traditional litigation support services to law firms and corporations, today announced that it has joined forces with Buffalo-based DIGITS LLC, a national provider of digital forensics and cyber security services. The deal formalizes a long-standing relationship between the entities as Avalon owners JP Midgley and Shawn Thrall close on an equity position alongside DIGITS’s CEO, Michael McCartney.

“We are extremely excited to formalize our relationship with DIGITS.  The pooling of resources will streamline operations and continue to fuel the fast growth that both our entities have been experiencing over the last several years,” stated Avalon’s CEO, JP Midgley.

The deal should come as no surprise to their clients.  The companies have been working alongside each other since 2009 to provide law firms and corporate legal departments with services to support the full lifecycle of litigation. Avalon and DIGITS will condense offices in Rochester and Cleveland and merge headquarters in Avalon’s office at 741 Main Street in Buffalo. The deal brings together over 120 professionals, making it one of the nation’s largest providers of eDiscovery, digital forensics, and cyber security services.

“This merger makes perfect sense. It marries two companies that were already connected and who’s products and services were designed to be interoperable.  With the co-location of our professionals and technology, we will be better able to streamline our collective services to our clients,” stated DIGITS’s CEO, Michael McCartney.

Cyber security is one of the fastest growing industries in the world today, with corporate breaches dominating headlines on a daily basis. The law enforcement and security background of DIGITS, combined with Avalon’s deep project management and technical team, positions the unified company to differentiate itself from the masses that are jumping on the cyber security bandwagon. The merged entity expects to add 5-10 cyber security professionals in 2016 alone.

More information on DIGITS and Avalon can be found at digitsllc.com and teamavalon.com

09 Feb, 2016 – The danger governments face from people within their borders using a variety of encrypted and privacy focused technology to communicate and plan with criminals and terrorists in foreign countries is a very real one.  Wolf Intelligence, a leader in high-tech intelligence systems, recently announced they have new government-only solutions for this problem, effective against even very high levels of encryption.

It is often thought that individuals using things like TOR, VPN services, special apps or cleverly designed smart phones can get around government attempts at tracking or monitoring their communications with known terrorists. Wolf Intelligence recently declared that this is anything but the case. The company offers technology that is able to identify and track these kinds of communication. They offer this product only to government agencies that wish to boost their intelligence gathering capabilities.

“We understand the challenges governments often face if someone is talking using encrypted communication over a mobile app,” commented a spokesperson from Wolf Intelligence.  “If someone is using TOR or VPN, the government can’t track or intercept communication of mobiles or laptops.  Also, if someone uses a SIM card and throws it away after each call, the government can’t get new targets.  We’ve studied this all deeply and out new AI solution can be a game changer when it comes to facing any of these issues.”

”Wolf’s new AI Automatic Profiling system presents a solution to governments with a high priority of monitoring and identifying terrorist suspects.  It operates based on monitoring for common terrorist behavior, such as contacting known terrorist sponsoring nations, or nations with large amounts of terrorist activity. If someone is using What’s App, Signal, VOIP, TOR/VPNS, encrypted phones or other tech to contact these places, these activities can now be kept under surveillance in real time.”

The Artificial Intelligence Automatic Profiling System is available as a free service for governments in the Middle East, Africa, Asia and Europe to reduce crime using technology.

NEW YORK, New York – February 9, 2016 – Imagine being able to hang the entire island of Manhattan on the living room wall. Newly announced Microscape models, which capture the sculptural beauty of cityscapes and turn architectural tools into uniquely beautiful decorative objects, allows people to do just that. As seen on Gizmodo, Curbed, Designboom, Slate, and Contemporist, Microscape architectural models celebrate the sculptural beauty of cities in 1:5000 scale durable tiles that can be displayed anywhere!

These models are detailed, replicas of main cities. They’re 3D-printed from their own accurate, up-to-date aerial scan data, meaning that they can evolve along with the built environment. Furthermore, the Micoscape team annually processes all of that data to make it printable, so they can also include buildings still under construction or still in planning. Microscape intends to cover major cities across the United States and around the world, but their initial proving ground has been the city of New York. 

Alone or in groups on a desk, coffee table or wall, Microscape models are as beautiful as they are architecturally accurate. The team will soon make the entire island of Manhattan available in the form of individual, six-inch square tiles that can be collected and assembled any way a buyer chooses. However, before people can enjoy these beautiful architectural models, Microscape needs support. That’s why they launched this Kickstarter campaign, which was selected as a “Project We Love” by the crowd-sourcing company.

The goal of this project was to raise $8,000 by February 24, 2016. However, Microscape is proud to announce that they’ve far exceeded their goal, by eight times in fact. But, that doesn’t mean interested parties shouldn’t back the project, as with more support, Microscape can make additional, limited edition “Landmark” tiles available, giving backers more parts of the city to choose from. Additional support also means that they can expand their production capacity further and speed up delivery of rewards to backers. 

To help bring these incredible cityscape models to market, please visit the Kickstarter campaign by clicking here. Rewards will be delivered between May 2016 and December 2016. 

The more people know about this, the more support the campaign will receive.

Los Angeles, CA – February 10, 2016 – Worldwide Business with kathy ireland announces an exclusive story featuring Roche, a company that offers a point of care system for hospitals to simplify some aspects of caregiving.

The connected system was added and implemented in the beginning of 2002 or 2003 because it is better for the patients and will better monitor glucose, potassium, and insulin. It allows for better overall quality control of glucose meters.

The data is also immediately available in the system once it has been taken from the patient and recorded. The system is responsible for all of the lab results in the hospital so it serves as the main system for specific types of data that are important for overall patient health.

Without the system, in the past there have been issues with identification and there is no way to tell whether identification was correct or not. Employees of the hospital would have to manually input the data in the previous system which left a lot of room for human error.

With the system, as soon as the specimen is taken, the data is input into the system by the devices so there is no identification error or room for human error.

Worldwide Business with kathy ireland’s Vice President of Programming, JL Haber, was quoted stating, “It is very important that data is collected accurately by every hospital and the system provided by Roche is the most advanced system on the market.”

Tune in to see Roche Diagnostics on Fox Business Network as sponsored programming at 5:30pm EST and Bloomberg International as sponsored programming on February 14, 2016 at 7:30am GMT/8:30am CET, 10:30am D.F. and 3:00pm HKT.

Worldwide Business with kathy ireland presents an exclusive interview with Greg Lucini, CEO of ISM Solar Solutions, and Mike Ayers, CEO of Watershed Geo.

Los Angeles, CA – February 10, 2016 – SolarTurf™, a unique all-in-one solution for clean energy generation and landfill closure, is a featured company segment on Worldwide Business with kathy ireland. SolarTurf™ helps communities and site owners turn environmental liabilities, like landfills and brownfields, into revenue generating assets.  The system consists of ballasted solar arrays mounted on ClosureTurf®, the industry’s leading Subtitle D landfill closure system. It is offered through an exclusive partnership between ISM Solar, a national developer with industry-leading expertise in solar project management, and Watershed Geo, an innovative environmental and civil technologies company.

During the segment, Kathy Ireland interviewed Greg Lucini, CEO of ISM Solar Solutions, and Mike Ayers, CEO of Watershed Geo.

Greg Lucini explains why it is not ideal to take a green space and re-purpose it for green energy by saying, “Solar is growing very rapidly in the United States and around the world. Every time a solar array is built, we are talking utility scale, thousands if not tens of thousands of solar panels covering many, many acres.  The animals that live there, the plants, the vegetation, and the water management are forever changed. With the amount of development that is taking place, there has to be a better way to do it. It is really not sustainable the way we would like it to be. SolarTurf™ eliminates the destruction of viable habitat by reclaiming environmentally degraded land for zero-impact, sustainable energy production.”

Beyond clean energy generation, SolarTurf™ solves many of the environmental issues associated with traditional landfill closures. Mike Ayers explains the benefits of SolarTurf’s closure foundation, “It is a patented system [comprised of a structured geomembrane, an engineered turf, and a specialized sand infill] that helps reduce the liquids that get into the landfill, control the gas that comes out of the landfill, and produce an environment that is very clean and stable for solar.” A virtually maintenance free technology designed to last, SolarTurf™ has proven to be the most sustainable closure option, providing unmatched economic and environmental advantages for waste closure sites.

Learn more about SolarTurf™ on the upcoming segment of Worldwide Business with kathy ireland. There will also be a look into the company and their process.

The Vice President of Programming, JL Haber, was quoted stating, “With technology focusing on solar energy, it is important to look at the potentially negative outcomes. SolarTurf is doing that and making a difference in the environment so solar energy is worth the work.”

Tune in to see SolarTurf™ on the Fox Business Network as sponsored programming on February 13, 2016 at 5:00pm ET.

TORONTO, Ontario, Canada – Render3DQuickly has launched a new virtual design service, finally available to property developers in response to overwhelming demand. Interactive virtual reality in the architecture industry is now, a reality! Clients can now access 3d walkthroughs and real estate virtual tours allowing the opportunity to stand in the living room of their new home or development before it is built.

According to Jason Vander Griendt, CEO of Render3Dquickly.com, “For years, numerous clients asked us whether we offer interactive virtual architecture, 3D flythroughs and 3D walkthroughs, but affordable technology had not yet become available. Render3Dquickly.com was originally offering 3D animations as an alternative, but clients wanted upgraded, viable options.”

“Well-done animations can be very expensive at $35-$100/second in length, and these animations are not interactive. Clients want to be able to turn left, right, or go straight and not be bound by animation restrictions. Professionals want an affordable way to offer a virtual reality architecture design tour. At a price tag of $2,100 – $6,000 for a one minute animation, who has room for that in their budget?” Virtual reality technology has however advanced, and the greatly anticipated benefits of virtual design are in reach with VR headsets now so affordable and widely accessible.

As a special introductory offer to introduce clients to try their new virtual reality rendering service, Render3DQuickly.com is providing free VR headsets with their 360 plan. Virtual reality real estate renderings empowers real estate agents, builders and developers, interior designers and architects to offer their clients an immersive 3D walkthrough of property designs yet to be built whether their clients are in their office or on the other side of the world.

Builders and architects gain the benefit of seeing their plans come to life with the ability to make design changes before breaking ground. Interior designers can let their clients walk around a room and see their design vision, and can instantly make available multiple design options. Real estate agents can show clients numerous properties without leaving their office. 

Says Vander Grient, “We expect a massive industry shift in the way real estate and architecture professionals conduct business going forward with VR technology. We are very excited to be the industry leader offering this service to our clients. It is our goal at Render3DQuickly.com to always be on the cutting edge of technology. It is important for us to be the first to offer new, more impressive and more affordable ways for our clients to conduct business so they too are industry leaders.”

Worldwide Business with kathy ireland presents an exclusive interview with Rafael Cappucci, President and CEO of VisionASP.

Los Angeles, CA – February 10, 2016 – Worldwide Business with kathy ireland® announces an exclusive feature story on VisionASP. The story will focus on their innovative approach to technology solutions that put business owners and managers in control of current and future operations.

Rafael Cappucci, President and CEO of VisionASP, introduces his company by explaining, “We approach our clients with what we call the BOSS concept. This acronym stands for providing each client with their own Business Operating Software Solutions. We help empower clients to take charge of the technology that is so vital to their success.”

Commenting further, Cappucci notes, “Many companies today buy off-the-shelf and packaged software for their business solutions. However, it is seldom one-size-fits-all applications allow these companies to really control their businesses the way they desire. We step in and provide the custom adjustments needed to achieve maximum utility and productivity from the company’s technology platform.”

NAVIN Corp. launches ProView S3, a high-performance 3-axis gimbal stabilizer capable of handling 4.7″ to larger size 5.7″ screen smartphone with 4K video recording capability. It eliminates shakiness in smartphone video recording, resulting in cinematic shots, and enables everyone to capture the world around them with superb video footage to tell their stories. ProView S3 enables smooth video result with professional quality regardless of camera movement while recording.

High-torque brushless DC motors with superior gripping power are used in the design, to allow handling of larger and heavier smartphones. Adopting an advanced dual IMU design, it delivers state-of-art camera stabilization performance with much less drift than gimbals using only a single IMU.

ProView S3 is now crowdfunding on Indiegogo, http://bit.ly/1Pv1OvE, ending on March 3, 2016. Shipment for Indiegogo backers is expected in July, 2016.

Well-known weak points of most existing smartphone gimbals on the market are addressed by ProView S3; e.g., weak motors unable to handle larger and heavier smartphones to stabilize video recording well.

The benefits unique to ProView S3 include:

• Superior performance with heavier smartphones
• Better wind resistance
• Improved accuracy
• Four operating modes, encompassing most possible usages
• Elegant single button design for on/off control and joystick pan-tilt control
• Intuitive operating mode display via front-panel LED display
• Ergonomic design for easy mounting of smartphone

Larger size smartphones with very high resolution (4K) camera are rapidly gaining popularity. ProView S3 enables owner of these smartphones to take cinematic quality video at fractional cost of professional gimbal equipment or 4K camera with integrated gimbal.

NAVIN has been working on smartphone gimbal design since March of 2015. NAVIN went through three major iterations of gimbal electronical and mechanical design changes over the past ten months, improving on performance, usability, and manufacturability to arrive at the current high-performance design, nearly ready for mass production.

The team consists of veterans in embedded system design, application software design, and product manufacturing. Previously NAVIN has designed and sold highly acclaimed miniHomer, a GPS Position Finder product. Competing against products by world-renowned manufacturers, e.g., Garmin eTrex 30, Magellan eXplorist 610, and Falk Ibex 40 in a 6-month extensive product testing performed by German Wander Magazin; miniHomer stood out winning seal of approval alongside with Garmin eTrex 30.

MENLO PARK, CA – 11 Feb, 2016 – Chukong Technologies today announced plans to split off its revolutionary game operations platform, SDKBOX, as a separate entity from the parent company, which also operates the world’s largest open source mobile game engine, Cocos2d-x. Kai Zhao will lead the initiative with the new company. Chukong revealed that SDKBOX has begun supporting game engines from Unity Technologies and Epic Games with its latest 2.0 update. Earlier this month, the SDKBOX IAP controller was approved for sale and listed in the Unity Asset Store.

Chukong initially added the SDKBOX service to Cocos2d-x in July 2015. Since then, over 4,500 games on over 20 million mobile devices spread across geographic regions including China, Japan, the US, Ukraine, India, Russia and Turkey are already using the SDKBOX framework. SDKBOX supports industry leading services for mobile game production and operations, including analytics, user acquisition, monetization, advertising, compliance and more.

Haozhi Chen, CEO of Chukong Technologies, said: “Spinning off SDKBOX was the next logical step for scaling the business within the games industry. This move provides more autonomy for SDKBOX to support additional engines and grow market share in the live operations technology market for games. Additionally, the new company will have dedicated financial and strategic support from Chukong, and we’re looking forward to the future growth of this sector for our overall business.”

Kai Zhao, the new head of operations for SDKBOX, said: “Chukong is dedicated to providing mobile game developers with the tools and services critical for creating and growing games. Now with the spin off of SDKBOX as a standalone entity, we’ll be better positioned to focus resources and provide the widening spectrum of services that developers need to be competitive in the market.”

SDKBOX version 2.0 brings several new capabilities to developers including:

• Live operations controls
• Cloud-based game configuration management with live-updating support
• Server and client-side in-app purchase receipts verification
• On-the-fly in-game store catalog management
• IAP controllers for Unity and Unreal Game Engines, which offer an elegant API for managing iOS and Android-based microtransations to reduce the redundancy of updating price changes to each App marketplace

He will leverage his vast network of international relationships and experience to bring The Rogue Initiative’s content to an ever-expanding global audience.

Blumel said: “I’ve always loved finding ways of bringing Hollywood creatives together with AAA video game developers. Virtual reality is another great catalyst in building that bridge. Our vision at The Rogue Initiative is to create a studio where the most successful storytellers and filmmakers from Hollywood collaborate side-by-side to create and develop new worlds and interactive experiences with the best and brightest from the video game and tech industries. We’re very fortunate to have built some amazing relationships with established filmmakers over the years, which have now culminated into various projects currently in production using Unreal Engine 4. We can’t wait to formerly announce these Hollywood collaborations soon.”

The company officially launched with a seed investment round led by top Silicon Valley virtual reality-focused investor Presence Capital and includes The VR Fund, in addition to well-known angel investors and strategic game publishers, to further build out its tech and content pipeline, VR prototype development and drive a slate of AAA episodic VR projects. The company has also recently opened up a second tranche of its current financing round due to strong interest from domestic and international investors recognizing the value of the team, the studio’s prolific collaborations and its innovative hybrid tech/entertainment financing structure.

Tipatat Chennavasin, co-founder and General Partner of The VR Fund, said: “We believe The Rogue Initiative is uniquely positioned in the virtual reality market to drive high production value episodic content featuring strong IP as reflected in their amazing collaborations and diverse slate of projects. We really look forward to working with the team and breaking new ground in the fast-growing VR market.”

Additionally, The Rogue Initiative is supported by an impressive team of advisors including entrepreneurs Paul Bragiel, Amitt Mahajan, and Phil Chen, and veteran film and television producer and best-selling author Lynda Obst behind major blockbusters including Interstellar, Contact, Sleepless in Seattle, The Fisher King, and Flashdance.  

Obst said: “I’ve enjoyed a wonderful working relationship with Pete and Cathy for years. They think like true entrepreneurs and are wildly creative professionals able to bring even the most fantastic ideas to life. VR is such an exciting medium and I’m looking forward to the amazing projects The Rogue Initiative will bring to audiences as the platform emerges.”

Much laughing ensues before it’s time to vote for a winner, who is selected by the democratic approach. After everyone has given their answer, it’s time to vote. This is done by having everyone point at the person they think had the best answer, besides themselves. The person receiving the most votes gets the card, and another round is started.However, before everyone can enjoy this awesome, party game, QW Games needs support. That’s why they launched this Kickstarter campaign. The goal of this project is to raise $10,000 by March 10, 2016.
