ArivisWebView Allows 3D Image Viewing of Gigabyte Images in Web Browsers

Leave a comment

First of its kind, WebView3D can visualize volumetric data.

Seattle (USA) / Berlin (Germany), Wednesday – December 14, 2011 — Arivis ( http://www.arivis.com ), the leading provider of software for the visualization and analysis of high-dimensional image data of almost unlimited size, today announced beta version of WebView 3.0 with 3D rendering.

WebView3D is a new SaaS-based tool that allows users to view, manipulate, annotate and collaborate on multi-gigapixel images and render 3D image stacks using popular and common Internet browsers. WebView 3D is part of ArivisWebView, a modular framework for image visualization and annotation on the Internet.

In short, WebView3D visualizes volumetric data. For example, in a life sciences or medical application WebView3D could be used to show large computer tomography scans over the web.

“The idea behind WebView3D is to allow for the easy sharing and manipulation of volumetric data and large 3D images such as those generated by microscopical or X-ray computed tomography, or industrial CT scanning, for example,” says Arivis founder Christian Götze. “Size is never an issue. Our products incorporate, combine, manage, visualize, and analyze image data, independent from its origin, dimensionality and dimension.”

WebView3D ( http://webview3d.arivis.com/ ) takes advantage of the platform-independent WebGL interface based on OpenGL standards and freely available on Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, and the open source Opera browser. WebView3D support for Microsoft Explorer is forthcoming. (No plug-ins necessary.)

The ArivisWebView framework ( http://www.arivis.com ) also provides a layer of collaboration tools such as marking annotations directly on regions of interest, editorial tracking by author, time and date stamping, and archiving. For example, Boston doctors can share virtual pathological slides from a cancer patient and get a second opinion by specialists from Berlin without having to download or upload the massive file locally.

Although WebView3D can be used for sharing and viewing 3D images in life sciences, neuroscience, and biotechnology, its applications are not limited strictly to applied sciences.

Using the new WebGL technology, WebView3D can render interactive 3D data quickly and at high resolution quality in standard web browsers. Being a standard compliant solution, the 3D technology can be implemented in any web application and interact with existing systems or used in third-party applications.

WebView3D will be available as a software-as-a-service (SaaS) model, or sold as server software. The beta version can be demoed by visiting: http://webview3d.arivis.com/.

About Arivis:
With offices in Berlin, Germany and Seattle, Arivis products incorporate, combine, manage, visualize, and analyze image data, independent from its origin, dimensionality and dimension. Its software solutions are designed to give users fast and easy access on any pixel images from scientific sources as microscopes and computer tomographs (CT). The company provides modular software systems for scientific image processing and image analysis, finding solutions for a cost-effective and time-efficient processing of nearly indefinitely large, complex image data and in cases where conventional software fails because of excessively large image data.

Build Your Enterprise IT 100% on the Web: It’s Pure Cloud

Leave a comment

It’s time to think Pure Cloud Solutions with your whole IT built 100% on the web.

San Jose, CA (USA), Friday – December 09, 2011 — Your Business Applications can either be built exclusively on the web using cloud platforms such as Google Apps, or they can be integrated into legacy systems, bridging the gap between old and new information systems. Netkiller, a leading global cloud IT integration firm, specializes in building applications on the Google Apps platform as well as Salesforce.com. Pure Cloud Solutions augments your systems by building on your existing IT structures.

Here are a few cases of Pure Cloud Solutions:

Workflow Management:
http://youtu.be/KzsLpnTTbhM (English Caption)
This shows pure Google Apps workflow management systems developed for companies such as MS-Autotech and PHC Valeo. These systems run 100% on the web utilizing a Google Apps document based workflow, which guarantees security and function through Google’s Service Level Agreement (SLA), which sports a 99.9% uptime guarantee (the best in the industry), and extends to any application or system developed purely on the Google cloud. Its content and function are both secure whenever, and where ever there is access to the web. TaeKyu Lee, CEO of MS-Autotech Co., said “Google Apps give innovative communication with great security; pure Google Apps solutions keep our security strong under Google’s SLA.”

NICER Emergency Response System:
Forest Hills Volunteer Ambulance Corps (FHVAC) utilizes a Pure Google Apps solution called NICER (Netkiller Internet Cloud Emergency Responder) designed and developed for storing and dispatching ambulance response in a timely and efficient manner. NICER is built entirely on the Google Apps Cloud platform, providing for secure connections (again, 99.9% up time guaranteed). Because NICER is built purely on this platform, it runs within Google Apps for Education accounts without the need for third party applications. Alan Wolfe, the President of Forest Hills Volunteer Ambulance Corps, remarked, “Netkiller was able to design exactly what we needed to track our ambulance response. NICER is an easy, convenient and efficient tool that we can afford.” Because NICER is a cloud solution it can be accessed by multiple users from any Internet-enabled computer.

Custom Databases, Help Desks, and Inventory systems:
Specialized applications have been developed for organizations like NTI, which required secure SSO access to web applications for specified separate groups, a custom database that interfaces the mobile UI for data import to a mapping program for website displays, a flexible report generator for personnel, customers, and public safety, a custom online help desk, and applications integrating mail, messaging, and online access to files and collaborative materials as well as integration between customer and management applications. These web applications built by Netkiller, such as help desks and inventory systems, benefit from the security and reliability of cloud platforms like Google Apps. Localist, an organization dedicated to connecting students with events in an academic setting, is another organization that utilizes a help desk constructed on the web by Netkiller. The benefits of these systems moving onto the cloud is that they maintain top-of-the-line security, while also staying at the cutting edge of technology in terms of functionality and development.

These are only a few examples of pure cloud solutions that Netkiller has developed. The possibilities for application functionality are limitless. Beyond developing applications purely on cloud platforms, Netkiller can also work with existing ERP structures to integrate the newest technology into legacy systems. Organizations in any industry can benefit from the expertise of Netkiller’s specialists, whether an entirely new system is required, or a specific application must be integrated into existing systems.

Sungwook Jung, CEO of Netkiller said “Enterprise businesses need great security and stability as much as Google does. We help Enterprise customers to gain that security by going 100% Cloud with Netkiller’s Pure Google Apps based solutions. It’s the best way to protect a customer’s data against security risks.”

Netkiller is a Google Enterprise Solution Provider, Salesforce.com Partner, and Google Apps Authorized Reseller. Netkiller currently services over 20,000 company accounts worldwide and has provided enterprise cloud solutions for such diverse industries as health care, automotive technology, and education, as well as many others.

SmartTOP Convertible Top Module for BMW 1 Series and Mini Now With Plug-And-Play Wiring

Leave a comment

The SmartTOP convertible top add-on module offered for BMW 1 series and Mini convertibles by after-market electronics specialist Mods4cars now comes with a custom designed plug-and-play wiring adapter. The module allows one-touch top operation while driving at slow speeds as well as opening and closing of the top from afar via the original factory remote fob. Installation is done by simply plugging the custom-fit wiring adapter in between two connectors.

Las Vegas, NV (USA), Friday – December 09, 2011 — Effective immediately, Mods4cars includes a new, custom designed plug-and-play wiring adapter with all SmartTOP module orders for BMW 1 series and Mini convertibles. The adapter uses OEM plugs and connectors to ensure a perfect fit and simple connection between the module and the car electronics. Installation is simplified to the point that it can be carried out by anyone without special knowledge. No individual wires need to be handled, no cutting or splicing into wires means no permanent changes to the vehicle.

The SmartTOP module offers BMW 1 series and Mini convertible owners an array of useful convenience features and adds functionality to their cars. The convertible top can be operated with a single touch of the switch, at speeds of up to 40km/h (~28mph). It is no longer necessary to pull over and hold down the top switch. Opening and closing of the top is also possible, up to the full RF range, via simple commands from the existing car key fob. The original remote does not need to be reprogrammed or altered.

“Thanks to our one-touch feature top operation is now a breeze – Quick and uncomplicated, even from the remote”, says PR manager Sven Tornow. On Mini convertibles it is even possible to enter command sequences to determine the desired position of the sunroof/convertible top combo. Touch the switch once to open the sunroof only, touch it twice to open the top, touch it three times to open top and all windows. All these options are also available from the key remote transmitter. “The cumbersome act of holding down the switch and letting go just in the right moment is a thing of the past. The driving fun can start right away”, Mr. Tornow concludes. With the kit installed, all it takes is a single tap to fully automatically close the windows, top and sunroof, should drivers get caught in a summer rainstorm.

Some additional features present on this as well as many of the company’s other add-on modules are separate window control from the remote, one-touch closing of all windows from the center console switch, automatic door locking and unlocking and an extended mode where turning the engine on or off does not interrupt an ongoing top operation. Also worth mentioning is the master switch, which allows turning the entire module on or off quickly, while retaining the user’s individual preference settings.

All SmartTOP convertible top add-on modules made by Mods4cars come with a standard USB port, a USB cable is included with every kit. This allows end users to configure the module or update the firmware with any regular Windows PC. Support software as well as firmware updates for the modules are available online, for the life of the product and free of charge.

Modules are available for Alfa, Audi, Bentley, BMW, Ferrari, Ford, Infiniti, Mazda, Mercedes, Mini, Nissan, Opel, Peugeot, Porsche, Renault, Volkswagen and Volvo. Mods4cars offers a SmartTOP kit for almost every modern convertible on the roads today.

The SmartTOP kit for BMW 1 series and Mini Convertibles is available for 249 Euros + tax.

A demonstration for Mini owners can be found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=16e8tAXiQSQ

A demonstration for BMW 1 series owners is here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bBy1dv3CwoY

Further details and purchasing information can be found at Mods4cars’ website: http://www.mods4cars.com

About Mods4cars:
Mods4cars was founded in 2002 with the idea to add a highly demanded feature to the otherwise almost perfect Porsche Boxster: Comfort One-Touch roof operation while driving at slow speeds. The resulting product offered not only that, but also allowed quick and easy installation by just swapping out a relay box, thus leaving no traces and no permanent changes on the vehicle. The first SmartTOP roof controller was born.

The success of their first products in Germany and Europe prompted them in late 2004 to move operations to the USA, to be able to serve the American market as well as all other English speaking countries such as Australia, UK and South Africa from one central location. Their business has grown to a full-fledged international corporation with an office in Las Vegas and a full line of innovative products as well as distributors and installation partners all over the globe.

Being highly specialized in the development and distribution of aftermarket roof- and comfort controllers since 2002 allows them to offer an unsurpassed level of competence and product quality. Their main goal is optimization of each individual product to a maximum in compatibility, usability and intuitive operation. They put greatest effort into development and quality checks of all their products to achieve this goal and meet all expectations of their customers.

The extraordinary success of their products is also based on the great communication with their customers, which usually already starts for each new product during the development and prototyping phase.

After Surpassing USA, UK and Japan to Become India’s Largest Trading Partner, Trade Between India & China Expected to Continue at a Record Breaking Pace

Leave a comment

* Over 120 Chinese companies participating in the 9th China Products (Mumbai India) Exhibition 2011 to continue the business momentum with India. The exhibition will be held from 15th – 17th December, 2011 at Bombay Exhibition Centre, Goregaon (East), Mumbai, India.

Mumbai, India, Wednesday – December 07, 2011 — With China overtaking USA, UK & Japan to become India’s largest trading partner in 2010-11 and trade relations between the two countries continuing to grow at a fast pace, Chinese entrepreneurs are tapping opportunities like the 9th China Products (Mumbai India) Exhibition 2011 to get in touch with Indian businessmen. The exhibition will be held from 15th – 17th December, 2011 at Bombay Exhibition Centre, Goregaon (East), Mumbai, India.

Trade volumes between India and China reached US $ 61.7 billion in 2010 and it is anticipated to reach US $ 100 billion by 2013. In the first 8 months of 2011, India-China bilateral trade reached US$ 48.17 billion, an increase of 19.47% over the same period last year. The added impetus to the growing Indo-China trade is the debt crisis in Europe and the anticipated slowdown in the US. Additionally, trade confidence between both India & China – which have strong domestic consumption – is also quite high.

According to Mr. Suresh Prabhu, four time Member of Lok Sabha and former Union Cabinet Minister for Power, Heavy Industries & Public Enterprises, who has consented to preside as Chief Guest at Opening Ceremony of the expo, “Many areas of common interest between India and China can be addressed through bilateral co-operation. There are a lot of opportunities for India and China to collaborate and develop positive relations based on trust and friendship for mutual benefit”.

The 9th China Products (Mumbai India) Exhibition 2011 ( http://www.chinamumbaiexpo.com ) is the biggest platform for Indian and Chinese entrepreneurs to interact with each other, and – as in the previous years – will serve as a platform for the Indian Industry to explore long-term business associations with Chinese companies in the form of tie-ups, joint ventures, collaborations and import-export trading relations.

On display at the Exhibitions will be an extensive range of products across a wide section of industries like building, construction and interiors, cosmetic and beauty products, diesel engine and diesel generator sets, electrical appliances, electronics, fabrics and garments, food and beverages, gifts and toys, glassware, handicrafts, hardware and tools, health and hygiene, home appliances, industrial products, sanitary ware, stationery, water pumps etc.

The trade show is being organized by the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade (CCPIT), Sub-councils of Commercial Industry, Guangdong, Ningbo and Hangzhou. The Exhibition is supported by the All India Association of Industries (AIAI) and the India-China Chamber of Commerce and Industries (ICCCI) and managed by Worldex India.

Leave a comment

The event is organized jointly by the Indian Home & Personal Care Industry Association and The Oil Technologists’ Association of India, Western Zone with the active support of CHEMEXCIL under the Ministry of Commerce & Industry, Government of India.

Mumbai, India, Wednesday – December 07, 2011 — The event is organized jointly by the Indian Home & Personal Care Industry Association (IHPCIA) and The Oil Technologists’ Association of India, Western Zone (OTAI-WZ) with the active support of CHEMEXCIL (Basic Chemicals, Pharmaceuticals & Cosmetics Export Promotion Council) under the Ministry of Commerce & Industry, Government of India.

The theme of the conference is “Dynamics of Change” and will discuss issues related to Sustainability, Markets, Innovations and Industry issues. A technical session of the conference will also provide information on new palm based surfactants which have a neutral carbon footprint and offer a cost effective alternative to petroleum based surfactants used by the HPC industry today.

The Rs. 2,00,000 crore HPC market has witnessed steady growth for laundry products at around 8% and significant growth for the Personal Care products at around 18-20% per year offering dynamic market opportunities. From the volume perspective the HPC industry has 6.3 million tons of products. In comparison the Chinese HPC industry volume is 8.2 million tons of which laundry liquids are around 3.3 million tons.

The theme of the conference “Dynamics of Change” will focus on issues relating to sustainability, markets, innovations and industry issues. There is a technical session on palm based derivatives which are carbon neutral and offer interesting options for formulators. Sixteen eminent speakers from the FMCG industry will present their views. This year global majors like Unilever, Huntsman, Clariant, BASF, Stepan and Akzo will share their plans for participating in the growing Indian market.

There will be time for networking during the International Association meet and Business Leaders meet and aConference dinner. The Exposition will have exhibits by FMCG and Global players in the HPC industry and CHEMEXCIL will be hosting a Reverse Buyer-Sellers Meet (RSBM) wherein global buyers will participate to explore Indian markets.

Delegates from Japan, China, Taiwan, Malaysia, Indonesia, Middle East, Europe and USA will interact with their industry counter party in India to strengthen business and commerce and share information on industry related issues.

The opening of the HPC industry in India offers new opportunity for consumers and challenges for manufacturers. There are concerns regarding the domestic tariff structures which can negate growth, GHS and chemical classification and opportunities through innovations which focus on sustainable carbon neutral products from Palm Oil. China has demonstrated that laundry liquids which are environmentally friendly and has reduced requirements for Energy and Water in washing. IHPCIA – Your Network & Your Voice is committed to addressing industry issues and developing solutions for healthy living and quality lifestyle.

We often emulate the China growth story and want Mumbai to be like Shanghai. In the past 10 years, the Chinese HPC industry has grown in volume and value by over 26% of that in India reflecting changing trends and people’s aspirations as incomes grow.

Sharing and networking with the international HPC Association will enable Indian consumers to benefit from the experiences of other countries and be on-line in this information age.

India’s importance as a large consumer market with a growth potential was recognized at the recently held AOSDAC conference in Beijing in November this year and Mr. Sanjay Trivedi of IHPCIA will be the chairperson for the steering committee for the 9thAOSDAC meeting to beheld in India in 2013.

Child’s Birth Inspires Book about Unbounded Love

Leave a comment

Inspired by the birth of her adopted son, Caleb, author Melissa Ivey Staehli wrote I Love You to the Moon, a new children’s book about unbounded love.

Houston, TX (USA), Tuesday – December 06, 2011 — Inspired by the birth of her adopted son, Caleb, author Melissa Ivey Staehli wrote I Love You to the Moon, a new children’s book about unbounded love.

“I am so thankful and blessed that Caleb’s birth mother chose life for him. The love I have for my son is what inspires me to write,” Staehli said.

A simple, poetic lullaby, I Love You to the Moon is a book that any loved one can read to a young child to let them know how much they are loved.

“Born out of a mother’s love for her child, this book will bless both the reader and child,” said Halo International Publisher Lisa Umina. “Sharing unbounded love with a child benefits our world forever.”

A native of the Akron, Ohio area, author Melissa Staehli grew up being close to her brother and four cousins, children of her mother’s twin. She attended Chapel Hill Christian elementary school where her husband, Jared, also was educated as a child. “Acquainted only” according to the writer, throughout school, the couple reconnected in their early twenties and married in 1993. Jared earns a living as a videographer/editor/producer and Melissa was employed as a nail technician when Caleb miraculously arrived in their lives.

“His birth mother generously decided to let a family adopt him,” Staehli explained, “and we had already started the adoption process through Korea, never knowing that a domestic adoption was meant to be.”

Staehli had written several poems over the years, including “one about God giving me a baby boy,” she said. I Love You to the Moon is basically another personal poem, one inspired by her faith in God and true love for her child, she said.

Staehli is available for book signings, readings and hopes to share her book throughout the community. She hopes to remind people “that we all should be thankful everyday of the year, because we have so many blessings.”

The author is working on her second book, Charlie’s Gingerbread House, also to be published by Halo Publishing International.

The 2012 NBA All-Star Game On Feb. 26 Will Be Played! Win 2 Free Tickets Courtesy Of Orlando All-Star Weekend.

Orlando, FL (USA), Monday – December 05, 2011 — The 2012 NBA All-Star Game On Feb. 26 Will Be Played! Win 2 Free Tickets Courtesy Of Orlando All-Star Weekend.

Great News! The NBA players union vs. owners’ lockout has ended. An agreement has been reached and the season will begin on Christmas Day. The 2011-2012 season will forfeit about 16 games on average from every team, yet this change will not affect the All Star game that takes place every year in February. Commissioner David Stern assured everyone, “Orlando All Star Weekend, will go on as scheduled.”

The NBA All Star Weekend is second only to the Super Bowl when it comes to the biggest party weekend on the planet. Celebrities, pro athletes, and many more come to party with the NBA elite. Last year in Los Angeles, Dwight Howard had his own private party with performances by Rick Ross and Rihanna. Now the All Star Weekend in 2012 has shifted to Orlando, Florida. Dwight Howard’s hometown. With his contract expiring at the end of the season, this could be Dwight Howard’s last year in an Orlando Magic uniform.

This event with Dwight Howard may just shut down the city for Orlando All Star Weekend. The NFL season will be over and over 200 NFL millionaire athletes will come to the Central Florida area. The I-Drive Orlando ( http://i-driveorlando.com ) hotel area will likely be booked solid, so you need to make reservations now. The Orlando All Star Weekend is projected to pump around 100 million much-needed dollars into the local Orlando economy.
