DENSO Receives IEEE Corporate Innovation Award for Developing and Spreading Use of QR Code

KARIYA, JAPAN, Dec 2, 2022 - (JCN Newswire via SEAPRWire.com) - DENSO Corporation today announced it has received the IEEE Corporate Innovation Award from IEEE,(1) the largest international association for electrical and electronic engineering in the world, for developing the QR Code(2) and spreading its use globally.The IEEE Corporate Innovation Award, one of the most prestigious technical awards in the world, is presented to organizations that have made a significant global impact with innovative technologies and products and contributed to the development of electrical and electronic engineering. Established by IEEE in 1985, the award has been presented to leading companies and organizations worldwide. DENSO has become the sixth Japanese company to receive this recognition.The QR Code was developed in 1994 by DENSO's applied equipment engineering section (currently DENSO WAVE) as an easy-to-read code that can store a large amount of information. The innovative two-dimensional code can store about 200 times more information than barcodes and can be read at high speed. DENSO started to use the code mainly for inventory management at its manufacturing plants, and later made the pat...

SKYX Platforms to Introduce its Upcoming Gen-1 Game-Changing Platform Technology Video Demo

MIAMI, FL, Aug 25, 2022 - (ACN Newswire via SEAPRWire.com) - SKYX Platforms Corp. (NASDAQ:SKYX) (d/b/a "Sky Technologies") ("SKYX," "we" or "the Company"), a highly disruptive platform technology company with over 60 issued and pending patents globally for simplifying and enhancing safety and automation in homes and buildings, today announced the introduction of a demo video of its Gen-1 game-changing ceiling platform technology, the specifications of which just received a historical approval vote by ANSI / NEMA, the leading U.S. standardization organizations for homes, buildings and the electrical industry.Hundreds of millions of lengthy installations of light fixtures take place, all while people risk their lives by touching hazardous electrical wires while standing on ladders. These risks result in millions of hazardous incidents including shorts, fires, falls from ladders, electrocutions, injuries and death. These hazardous incidents can be greatly reduced or even eliminated by using the SKYX plug and play ceiling outlet receptacle. The SKYX technology simplifies the installation process while significantly reducing both time and cost, as well as substantially reducing hazardou...

Portable generator powers small safety devices

The compact, lightweight device generates electricity when shaken and can power 100 LEDs. TSUKUBA, Japan, Feb 18, 2022 – (ACN Newswire) – A new stick-like, water-based device can convert energy from movement into electricity. The technology, which was reported in the journal Science and Technology of Advanced Materials, could be used to power portable devices, such as safety lights. The portable stick generator can be used to power a safety traffic light baton with 100 LEDs. With the growing interest in the internet of things and small electronics, there is high demand for portable energy sources. One way to produce power is to harvest energy from the environment, such as thermal, solar or mechanical energy. To capture mechanical energy – the power an object gets from its position and motion – scientists have developed triboelectric nanogenerators, which can produce electricity through friction. “Triboelectric nanogenerators are one of the most effective tools for harvesting mechanical energy because of their high electrical output, low cost and easy accessibility,” professor Sangmin Lee of Chung-ang University in the Republic of Korea. Triboelectric generators are electrically cha...
