CITIC Telecom CPC’s DataHOUSE AR Remote Hand wins Augmented & Virtual Reality Award for Telecommunications at SBR TEA 2021

DataHOUSE™ AR Remote Hand leverages wearable AR technology to transform field engineers’ operations and maintenance processes.

CITIC Telecom International CPC Limited (CITIC Telecom CPC), a wholly-owned subsidiary of CITIC Telecom International Holdings Limited (SEHK: 1883), is honored to announce that its innovative product, DataHOUSE™ AR Remote Hand, bagged the Augmented & Virtual Reality – Telecommunications Award during Singapore Business Review’s (SBR) recently concluded Technology Excellence Awards (TEA).

DataHOUSE™ AR Remote Hand is a highly practical, productive, and effective tool for field engineers that allows them to do virtual collaborations with offsite members whilst streaming data in real-time. The technology employs AR glasses to allow field engineers to conveniently retrieve encrypted backend data from backend systems, so that they can conduct maintenance, troubleshooting, and field operations speedily. With virtual access to equipment history or status, service manuals, complicated technical procedures, troubleshooting logs, and graphics via a designated QR code for each device, they can utilise hand gestures to review a device’s historical record to speed up analysis and troubleshooting, minimising downtime and costs whilst boosting field engineer productivity by up to 50%.

Traditionally, field engineers communicated with back-end support using email or phone. This makes it challenging to describe a troubleshooting situation. The AR Remote Hand solves this problem by allowing back-end engineers to view real-time images streamed via AR glasses through an AR operations console. Its powerful video conferencing feature also offers engineers instant support and fosters off-site collaboration between global operations and maintenance teams. It also overcomes the challenges of time zone, languages, distance barriers, and professional skill sets in multi-technology environments.

On the customer side, the current pandemic has made it difficult for enterprises’ IT staff to travel to data centres and manage their equipment. Through its AR glasses, CITIC Telecom CPC’s DataHOUSE AR Remote Hand can serve as the customers’ remote hands. Not only does it show the status of on-site equipment as customers watch in real-time from offices or other locations through the AR operations console, but it also lets customers provide live instructions to CITIC Telecom CPC’s on-site engineers as they troubleshoot equipment issues without customers being physically in the data centre.

AR Remote Hand solution is the brainchild of CITIC Telecom CPC’s professional teams of data scientists and research and development experts. Combining their knowledge with experts from the Hong Kong Applied Science and Technology Research Institute (ASTRI), which was founded by the Hong Kong government to enhance the city’s competitiveness in technology-based industries through applied research, this collaboration has been very successful in creating a groundbreaking technology to revolutionize management and maintenance in data center scenarios.

CITIC Telecom CPC is now building additional enhancements in the new version of AR Remote Hand by expanding its range of supported vendor equipment and adding on Artificial Intelligence (AI) to extend more service coverage. As one of the trusted partners of leading multinational and business enterprises in the Asia-Pacific region, it maintains its integrity as the premier connectivity, cloud services, information security, and data centre provider in the world.

The Technology Excellence Awards was presented by Singapore Business Review via video conferencing throughout the second and third week of April. This year’s nominations were judged by of Daryl Pereira, Head of Cyber at KPMG; Cheang Wai Keat, Partner, Consultant at Ernst & Young Advisory Pte. Ltd.; Henry Tan, Group Chief Executive Officer and Chief Innovation Officer at Nexia TS; Sivakumar Saravan, Senior Partner at Crowe Singapore; Cecil Su, Director, Head of Cybersecurity of BDO Singapore.

NTSB-style Report Blames the Washington Companies in Bridge Destruction

A root cause analytical investigation of the causation of a potentially fatal collision of two Komatsu excavators with a locally important bridge on the I-5 freeway in the State of Washington was executed recently. Mr Jeff Guzzetti, former Director, Accident Investigation Division of the Federal Aviation Administration, and former Deputy Director, Regional Office of the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), provides an in-depth review of the accident which occurred July 22, 2016. The goal of Mr Guzzetti’s investigation is to determine the root cause of the bridge strike.

Mr Guzzetti was called upon to utilize the forensics-style methodology employed by his former employer, the US National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), with a high degree of professional integrity and impartiality in determining the causal events behind the accidents, and finding the parties with the most responsibility in the bridge strike.

Quoted from Mr Guzzetti’s report under probable cause:
“Based on my review of available material, I have determined that the probable cause of this accident is (1) the shipper’s improper loading of the excavator, and failure to prevent the departure of the truck in an over-height state. Factors contributing to the cause are (2) the lack of adequate training and protocols by Modern Machinery.”

The list of other parties that may have contributed to the accident listed in this report are, The State of Washington Department of Transportation, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration, and ETON.

The shipper of the two excavators was the Modern Machinery company, a subsidiary of the Washington group of companies. Part of the material Mr Guzzetti used was the deposition of the Washington company employee, Mr Piles, where under sworn oath he testified that they had never been trained to curl the excavator’s bucket as required by the manufacturer for the transport of these excavators in question.

ETON is a Las Vegas-based premier transportation company serving the Western United States with equipment, professional drivers and superior on-time service.

The Washington Companies are a group of individual, privately held companies headquartered throughout the United States and western Canada and conducting business internationally, whose purpose is to reliably provide equipment, technology, service, and special expertise that aids customers to operate more efficiently and more profitably. Our affiliation gives us the ability to interconnect and combine resources and remain highly competitive. The individual success of each Company also empowers a strong sense of social responsibility, realized through corporate charitable activities and programs funded by the Dennis and Phyllis Washington Foundation.

Modern Machinery is part of this large consortium of privately held companies, collectively known as the Washington Companies, owned by billionaire Dennis R. Washington. Modern Machinery sells and rents high-quality heavy equipment and provides product support to the construction, mining, and forestry industries. The Modern Machinery terminal in Rochester, WA is home to a large staging area for a variety of Komatsu product brought from overseas awaiting shipment to other Komatsu dealers.

Komatsu America Corp. is a U.S. subsidiary of Komatsu Ltd. (OTCMKTS: KMTUY) the world’s second-largest manufacturer and supplier of earth-moving equipment, consisting of construction, mining and compact construction equipment.

In line with the company’s mission to “make investing easier and not alone”, Futu SG has come up with an enhanced referral programme where new users and their friends are able to earn up to 20 Twitter (TWTR) shares*, which have a net worth doubling more than what was offered during the last campaign (one was previously able to earn up to S$600 cash coupon). In addition, users who had opened an account prior to the campaign can still enjoy benefits from the new referral programme as their list of referrers gets reset back to zero.

Under the “Share leh!” campaign, new users will now receive 1 free Apple (AAPL) share, along with 180 days commission-free trading for US, HK & SG markets, free level 2 market data for US stocks and free level 1 real-time market data for SGX securities per new account opening with a minimum deposit of either S$2,700, US$2,000 or HK$16,000 before 1500 hrs on 31 May 2021*.

The key motivation behind Futu SG’s new campaign is the results from its previous survey on investing trends amongst Gen Z and Millennials, which found that many young investors have developed a greater interest in investing and have begun taking greater ownership of their finances. As “FOMO” (Fear of Missing Out) is highly undesired among these demographics, Futu SG hopes that its campaign would bring about an engaging social community that promotes a sense of inclusivity and culture to all users.

As highlighted by the campaign name, Futu SG hopes to show users how they will be rewarded by sharing offers, insights, profits graphs, and investment ideas to their peers. In addition, moomoo app provides an open forum known as the moo community which allows its users and clients to share investment ideas, ask questions and exchange insights through posts and live-streams. Features that are available in the community include digital content, tasks & missions and analytical guides for both new and seasoned investors. The moo community was created to boost the idea of making investing “not alone”, and seeks to help investors enrich their investing knowledge and establish rapport with other investors. Futu SG hopes that these initiatives will highlight how investment is never a lonely journey for users and that they will always have the backing of moo community.

Since its launch in Singapore this March, moomoo powered by Futu has received much success to date, having seen robust growth momentum and encouraging user feedback. The platform currently has more than 13 million users worldwide and possesses one of the fastest growing investor communities in the region which enables users to stay up-to-date of the latest investment trends.

Another testament to Futu Holdings Limited’s success is its achievement of the Fintech Award under the Trading Services category in the Singapore Business Review Awards 2021 for the launch and creation of moomoo.

Recognising the importance in having both user-friendly designs and advanced product features, Futu Holdings Limited designed moomoo with a slick interface which provides wide product offerings of market accessibility, data options, low commissions and user fees to reduce friction in accessing global investable products. moomoo app also includes AI-driven data screeners and easy-to-analyse trading charts, facilitating the convenience of trading across multiple markets with its multi-currency facility.

“We are very thankful to have received the SBR Awards and are confident that this is a positive sign of the success from our digitalisation efforts. Since establishing in 2012, we have always been on a mission to improve the investing experience of users through product upgrading and have dedicated over 70% of our employees to research and development. We also recognised that investing should not be a difficult and lonesome process and have therefore placed great emphasis on social elements. We believe that our latest campaign of rewarding users for sharing will show our commitment in being there for them along every step of the way,” says Leaf Li, Founder & CEO of Futu.
