New technologies such as augmented reality (AR), artificial intelligence (AI) and cloud computing are rapidly opening up opportunities for entirely new business models and the future of work in industry. However, internet-based services also bring additional challenges in terms of data security and user acceptance. The German Federal Ministry of Education and Research is funding various interdisciplinary projects. At the closing conference, the joint project "secureAR" won the Technology Award with its open, cloud-based service platform and a new AR assistance system equipped with OLED microdisplays from Fraunhofer FEP (Dresden, Germany).
LG Display (Seoul, Korea), the world’s leading innovator of display technologies, has announced that its OLED TV and monitor panels have earned the ‘Circadian Friendly’ certification from TÜV Rheinland, a leading global independent testing, inspection and certification body. The company’s OLED panels become the first displays to receive this certification, marking a groundbreaking achievement for the industry.
Canatu (Vantaa, Finland) and automotive supplier Webasto have been named the winners of Plug & Play Global Global Innovation Award at the Startup Autobahn EXPO2023 held on 22 June in Stuttgart, Germany. The Global Innovation Award recognises their joint pilot project on integrating a Canatu film heater into the Webasto Roof Sensor Module (RSM), to ensure reliable LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) and camera sensor performance in harsh weather conditions.
