Firstech Unveils New “KP2” Keyless Touchpad Accessory for Remote Car Starters

KP2 offers drivers a secure, easy-to-use method for managing vehicle access

Firstech, the maker of Compustar and DroneMobile connected car solutions, has announced that it will begin shipping the KP2 Keyless Touchpad (FT-KP2) in July 2021. KP2 is a windshield-mounted touchpad that gives drivers the ability to lock, unlock, and share their vehicles without the use of a key, remote, or smartphone.

In daily use, the KP2 Touchpad functions as a convenient replacement for car keys for unlocking and locking doors. To lock/arm the vehicle’s doors, the driver simply needs to hold the “Lock” button on the KP2. When the driver is ready to hit the road, they can unlock the doors by entering their 4-6 digit PIN code onto the windshield-mounted touchpad. The KP2’s upgraded capacitive touch sensors respond quickly for drivers who are on the go.

KP2 now supports two separate PIN codes, one reserved for the vehicle owner (“Master PIN”) and one reserved for shared drivers (“Guest PIN”). The Guest PIN code is time-sensitive and will expire on the time/date appointed by the vehicle owner via the DroneMobile smartphone app. In order to enable Guest PIN codes, the KP2 must be installed with a KL1 KeyLocker, which Firstech released in Spring 2020.

Guest PIN codes make the KP2 an ideal solution for car sharing situations. Whether a vehicle owner is hosting out-of-town guests or using car-sharing services such as Turo or Getaround, he/she could share PIN codes with other drivers without revealing his/her own Master PIN code. The KP2 will eventually be included with every Drone KL1 KeyLocker, giving car sharers an all-in-one vehicle and key management solution.

Installation of the KP2 Keyless Touchpad is simple, requiring only a single connection to a compatible Firstech remote starter, alarm, or KeyLocker. As usual, Firstech offers an array of programming methods via desktop, smartphone, or Firstech’s proprietary “OP-500” option programmer.

KP2 is Firstech’s fourth touchpad release. Previous models include the KP1 and the RPS TOUCH, one of Firstech’s best-selling accessories over the past ten years. In comparison to previous models, the KP2 features a new “OEM”-style interface, unbranded design, and two additional digits for code programming. Internally, the KP2 boasts significant upgrades to its memory and processor, improving the speed, responsiveness and reliability of the touchpad.

As a standalone accessory, KP2 will start at $49.99 MSRP. KL1 KeyLocker systems bundled with the KP2 will retail at $199.99 MSRP. If you are interested in learning more about the KP2 Keyless Touchpad, please visit http://www.myfirstech.com or email Firstech’s sales team at orders@myfirstech.com.

Stage venue lighting combined with portable Bluetooth Speaker, Partier, to save the party

The modular moving light smart speaker PARTIER is now available on Amazon.

RNS Co., Ltd.’s best product, PARTIER, is coming to town at the end of the Covid-19 outbreak. It is a new smart speaker, having interesting features. PARTIER, as it is called, is a modular moving light smart speaker that is possible to pair with multi-devices and to make multi-lighting moods.

PARTIER is a portable bluetooth speaker combined with two-axis rotating A.I. robot arms, usually used in concert halls and stage venues, dancing with music. Depending on the USB lighting module, it is divided into “Party-1004”, “Party-1002” and “Party-1000”.

“Party-1004” includes four lights: Disco Mirror Ball, Therapy Mood Light, Fire Wood Light, and Star Mood Light. Party-1002″ supports two of them, and “Party-1000” contains a Disco Mirror Ball.

Disco Mirror Ball best matches the exciting party atmosphere, and it is synchronized with music to provide equalizer movement. Fire Wood Light allows one to relax comfortably with a campfire atmosphere without fire hazard. Therapy Mood Light makes the whole room peaceful, and the Star Mood Light brings the atmosphere of starry night on the ceiling of the room. The fact that it is possible to conduct a desired atmosphere with various moods, has increased its commercial value.

PARTIER’s robot arm interprets audio input in real-time to generate movements based on rhythm and beat. This creates dynamic movements. The speaker analyzes the audio input and uses a special algorithm to move its robot arm. The arm has a movement range of 135° vertically and 270° horizontally. As the arm dances to the music, the light from the disco ball dances in the surroundings to create dynamic light and mood.

The United States of America is expecting the end of COVID-19 outbreak and foreseeing the possibility of holding parties and occasions from the 1st of July. There is a huge prospect of many parties opening in the U.S.A. According to specialists in RNS Co., Ltd., PARTIER will make events better, fancier and more enjoyable with its outstanding sound quality as well as its convenience and brilliance.

PARTIER was successfully proven in the CES2021 exhibition (Consumer Technology Association) and RNS Co., Ltd. is planning to participate in the CES2022 exhibition.

New Video IC features High-Performance USB Type-C® / DisplayPort™ 1.4a Alt-Mode to Triple DP 1.4a / HDMI™ 2.0b (DP++) transmitters with USB Retimer, TCPM for Power Delivery & DSC 1.2 support

Power management and video/audio interface leader Kinetic Technologies is expanding its Smart Connectivity portfolio with the introduction of the KTM5000 product family: a single-chip, highly integrated, low-power and high-performance USB Type-C / DP 1.4a Alt-Mode MST HUB with three configurable DP 1.4a or HDMI 2.0b (DP++) outputs.

KTM5000 functions as a multi-stream audio-video splitter and protocol converter including HDCP 1.x/ HDCP 2.3 repeater, targeted primarily for Mobile PC docking stations, Displays, and Digital Signage applications, capable of supporting 25 or more daisy-chained monitors.

The KTM5000 family enters the market of DSC 1.2 (Display Stream Compression) enabling three 4K2K 60Hz outputs.

These features have been validated with all major Graphics Processing Platforms including NVIDIA® GeForce® RTX 2080, AMD Radeon™ RX 5700 XT and Intel’s 11th generation Tiger Lake™ processors.

Its ultra-low power consumption of under 1W at the maximum video resolution supported (8K in DP out mode) or 3 x 4K2K 60Hz outputs (with DSC) makes it an ideal fit for the emerging travel dock, mini dock and docking station markets.

KTM5000 is part of a Thunderbolt™ 4 Multi-Port docking station reference design which passed Intel’s TCM (Thunderbolt™ Certification Manager) requirements. In addition, its MST interoperability with USB Type-C hosts enables fast and seamless adoption of systems that connect to the latest AMD, NVIDIA, Intel, and Qualcomm CPU powered notebooks, tablets, and smartphones.

Mohegan Gaming & Entertainment Gains Efficiency Through Infrastructure Configuration Automation with Axcelinno

Mohegan Gaming & Entertainment (MGE), a master developer and operator of premier global integrated entertainment resorts, was simply looking for “A Better Way” to operate.

Mohegan Gaming & Entertainment (MGE), a master developer and operator of premier global integrated entertainment resorts, was simply looking for “A Better Way” to operate. MGE was driven to continue developing its current locations while finding innovative ways to bring efficiency to its infrastructure. However, simple infrastructure management and configuration tasks are the most complex ones, requiring the most time and distracting their team members from strategic new technologies. Axcelinno partnered with the team at RedHat® to leverage the power and flexibility of infrastructure-as-code methodologies and platforms to standardize the configuration and enforce compliance of the MGE infrastructure.

“Axcelinno was committed to Mohegan’s success from the beginning. We never doubted they had our best interest in mind. Axcelinno was in constant communication working on a game plan to facilitate the deployment of Ansible within our environment, [even when] COVID-19 hit.” says Timothy O’Leary, Director of Global Architecture Information Technology, Mohegan Gaming & Entertainment.

MGE is expanding into different landscapes both domestically and internationally. The gaming industry domestically is becoming less of a destination-based industry and becoming more regional-based gaming. Guests don’t have to travel as far to get the same gaming product. This changes the way MGE approaches technology to solve common problems. Key to MGE’s strategy to become a default choice for gaming patrons, they decided to improve their customer loyalty program. This created a critical time challenge, as each regional location took weeks to stand up their loyalty program infrastructure.

Due to the manual involvement required by the infrastructure-related tasks, adding a new property to the loyalty program previously required six full-time employees two weeks to provision and configure load balancers, servers, and databases. The manual provisioning and configuration were delaying the project and time to market. MGE focused on finding a way to automate this process, but when COVID-19 hit, MGE decided to put the effort on hold.

However, Axcelinno understood the importance of the automation effort to MGE. Axcelinno was in constant communication with MGE and built a plan to facilitate the deployment of Ansible within the MGE environment.

“Axcelinno turned their attention to the Mohegan team members, making sure we were okay in the given situation and putting conversations to the side while we adjusted to more pressing problems. This is when we knew we chose the right partner. When we were ready, Axcelinno worked with us in creative ways to achieve our ultimate goal of getting a DevOps automation tool in place.” said O’Leary.

In less than four weeks, Axcelinno stood up Ansible and had automated MGE’s process involving networking infrastructure, AS400, VMWare, DNS/DHCP provisioning, databases, and software platforms. The Axcelinno team also used its unique mentoring model to provide hands-on training and coaching to the MGE team. Axcelinno’s Ansible Automation Rapid Start program reduced MGE’s time required to provision and configure the infrastructure to hours per location from weeks. Through a partnership with Axcelinno and Red Hat, MGE solved the common problem of doing more with less. With the introduction of the Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform, MGE continues to provide a great customer experience while bringing efficiency to its infrastructure. COVID-19 put the engagement at risk. However, Axcelinno’s commitment to MGE’s automation journey using Ansible and implementing the playbooks for MGE’s environment, and mentoring MGE’s team members remained the same. Axcelinno’s Red Hat Ansible Automation Rapid Start program allowed MGE to purchase the software, professional services for setup and playbook implementation using best practices, and training as a single package.

“Mohegan team members highlighted the willingness of Axcelinno to adjust and accommodate
requests to allow for more hands-on learning. Walking away from this rapid standup engagement, Mohegan team members are well trained, Ansible has fully stood up with integrations into the Mohegan environment as great examples that have set us up for success going forward,” said O’Leary.

About Axcelinno
Global software company Axcelinno, a Red Hat Premier Apex Partner, is an IT professional services company built around what enterprises truly need—the ability to accelerate innovation through technology while simultaneously upskilling staff. Axcelinno works with clients to accelerate business innovation using best-of-breed technology solutions. The combination of Axcelinno’s cross-functional teams, which bring over 20 years of experience and a unique mentoring model, helps clients deliver solutions on budget, on time, every time.

About Mohegan Gaming & Entertainment
Mohegan Gaming & Entertainment is a master developer and operator of premier global integrated entertainment resorts, including Mohegan Sun in Uncasville, Connecticut, Inspire in Incheon, South Korea, and Niagara Casinos in Niagara, Canada. MGE is the owner, developer, and manager of integrated entertainment resorts throughout the United States as well as Northern Asia, Niagara Falls, Canada, and Las Vegas, Nevada.

How to Take Forex Trading to The Next Level with Libertex

The Forex market is one of the most volatile and lucrative markets in the trading landscape. Worth an absolutely unfathomable $6.5+ trillion a day, it dwarfs its closest competitor (stocks) by a significant margin. Despite offering plenty of opportunity for shrewd traders, the risk of loss of capital is very real. Given the cut-throat competition – especially for day traders – you simply must use all the tools at your disposal if you’re to turn a consistent profit.

Apart from a sound strategy, which is just a given, you’ll also need to seize every single advantage available to gain the upper hand against those who would like to get their hands on your hard-earned deposit. “But how do I do that?” you might ask. Well, listen up because we’re about to give you the rundown on perhaps the biggest ace you can have up your sleeve when trading the foreign exchange market.

Read the signs

As we’ve already said, volatility is the name of the game in Forex. Movements might be small, but they can end up costing you big, particularly when leverage is involved. Support and resistance levels are extremely difficult to predict in this market, which tends to lead to more speculation. This makes it very easy to pick the wrong direction and rack up huge losses in the process. For this reason, analytics is an absolute must. However, not many have the time and technical analysis skills to study the market closely enough to find perfect entry and exit points.

To be honest, even the professionals frequently get it wrong. To compound matters, the window of actionability is also extremely tight. It often requires lots of analysts working concurrently to produce something that is actually usable. In this context, it’s easy to see how the deck is stacked in favour of larger institutional players. So, how can the average trader level the playing field? Well, the simple answer is trading signals.

What on Earth are trading signals?!

Trading signals take many forms, but typically they consist of news events or chart-based graphics. Their value lies in the fact that they tell us precisely what is happening in the market at a particular time and give us a clear direction of movement. They even specify suitable entry and exit points. Many even include details of any key factors liable to affect prices in the short term.

Because of the enormous volatility involved, effective use of signals is absolutely crucial to successful Forex trading. There are so many influencing factors, many of which are highly unpredictable – from worldwide supply and demand fluctuations all the way to global economic and political developments. As such, you simply must have a reliable and holistic signals service if you’re to have any chance of keeping up with the foreign exchange market’s ups and downs.

Manual or automatic?

No, we’re not talking about cars. These are the two main types of Forex trading signals available. Let’s take a quick look at what each type entails and some advantages and disadvantages of both.

Manual signals

Manual signals are created by traders or senior analysts with an in-depth knowledge of the market. They usually consist of easy-to-read bulletins or annotated charts. Typically, they are universally accessible and straightforward to understand and implement. The Libertex platform includes such signals on its regularly updated newsfeed for this asset class. To access them, Libertex traders just have to click the ‘News and Signals’ button at the top of the page (circled red in the image below):

Immediately after clicking, a new window will appear showing a long list of the latest signals from a variety of sources that are updated almost every other minute (see below):

advantage of veteran market participants’ skills and knowledge. Once you see a signal you like, all you need to do is click it, and it will open automatically. That looks something like this:

So far, so good. Unfortunately, the very human dimension that makes them so easy to use can also be their downfall from time to time. Sometimes, the information can be outdated or simply misinterpreted, which is why we don’t recommend relying on manual signals alone. That’s particularly true for longer-term positions or higher-leverage trading.

Automatic signals

While not quite as detailed and engaging, automatic signals are generally considered much more accurate, especially over shorter timeframes. These signals are generated by powerful software suites and require quite a bit more getting to grips with than their manual counterparts.

First of all, they need some sort of data input. This can come from the trader him/herself or a third-party signals provider. After processing is complete, the software will generate a simple buy or sell signal in line with the exact market conditions at the time of generation. As such, these are not only highly accurate; they’re also much more precise in terms of their timeframe and buy/sell values.

Luckily for Libertex users, they have access to both automatic and manual signals to leverage the benefits of each. Libertex’s automatic signals are super-easy to use as they come embedded into each individual instrument on the platform screen. Below is an example for GBPUSD:

As we can see, right there on the chart, we have the latest rating for the relevant instrument (“strong buy” in this case). If we click this, a box appears with the signal potential (5%) and signal probability (76%), enabling us to make a quick decision as to whether the signal fits our strategy/risk tolerance. We can even open a trade using it with the click of a button by hitting ‘Use signal’. It really couldn’t be easier. The platform even includes another handy metric, trader sentiment, just below the chart (circled red).

Summing up

Trading is known to be rife with uncertainty, but nowhere is this more acutely felt than in the Forex market. Even experts can make very costly mistakes without a helping hand. This is where trading signals come in. Apart from providing general information about the opportunities available in the current market situation, they also help traders mitigate many of the transaction- and leverage-related risks that can end up costing them so dearly. By providing clear entry and exit points, signals can help everyone from long-term investors to swing and day traders while also allowing for constant monitoring of positions for as long as they remain open.

However, to get the most out of signals, you really need to be using a combination of the two. That’s why platforms such as Libertex that integrate both varieties are so powerful. Usually, services like this don’t come cheap, and not every broker out there is providing its clients with this level of added value free of charge. So, if you’d like to take your Forex trading to the next level, why not create a Libertex account today? With unbeatable leverage (30:1 on currencies) and market-beating commission all wrapped up into an award-winning, ultra-user-friendly app, Libertex is a really good option to join the ranks of satisfied traders around the world!
