Opticom Technologies provides a technology update for HD-TVI installation, detailing cable run limitations and installation steps. Key recommendations include replacing existing DVRs with HD-TVI compatible ones and testing connections to ensure signal strength. Additionally, it addresses limitations with existing analog devices and offers solutions such as using video distributors and converters to enhance signal over various connections.
Opticom Tech produces industrial video solutions for sawmills and other environments with heavy vibration, dust, and temperature extremes. Their cameras, like the CC02 and CC04 models, are designed to withstand these challenging conditions. Complete visual systems with multiple cameras allow operators to view different areas from one central location. Opticom Tech also offers recording solutions to help troubleshoot problems in mills. Their typical sawmill system includes several vibration-resistant cameras connected to a monitor via a splitter and recorder.
This document provides product information and specifications for several industrial camera models from Opticom Technologies Inc., including the CC02 all-weather camera, CC03-1F explosion proof camera, CC03-2VF explosion proof varifocal camera, CC03-IP2MVF explosion proof megapixel camera, and CC04-IP2M industrial IP camera.

This document outlines 5 steps to upgrade an existing analog security camera system to a high definition TVI system. It recommends upgrading the video processor first to support the new HDTVI standard. Then upgrading the cameras to high definition models that connect the same but provide better images. Monitors should also be upgraded to display the new resolution. Cables and accessories like baluns may need to be added if using CAT5 cable to connect everything in the upgraded system.
The document discusses different types of HD video transmission standards including Network HD, Digital HD, and Analog HD. It provides details on HD-SDI, AHD, HD-CVI, and HD-TVI standards, comparing their transmission distances, bidirectional communication abilities, cost, and adoption by manufacturers. HD-TVI is highlighted as having over 1000' of transmission distance, supporting bidirectional communication through an open platform, and being widely accepted by programmers. A list of HD-TVI camera and DVR products that are in stock is also included.

The Future of Product Management in AI ERA.pdfAlyona Owens
油
Hi, Im Aly Owens, I have a special pleasure to stand here as over a decade ago I graduated from CityU as an international student with an MBA program. I enjoyed the diversity of the school, ability to work and study, the network that came with being here, and of course the price tag for students here has always been more affordable than most around.
Since then I have worked for major corporations like T-Mobile and Microsoft and many more, and I have founded a startup. I've also been teaching product management to ensure my students save time and money to get to the same level as me faster avoiding popular mistakes. Today as Ive transitioned to teaching and focusing on the startup, I hear everybody being concerned about Ai stealing their jobs Well talk about it shortly.
But before that, I want to take you back to 1997. One of my favorite movies is Fifth Element. It wowed me with futuristic predictions when I was a kid and Im impressed by the number of these predictions that have already come true. Self-driving cars, video calls and smart TV, personalized ads and identity scanning. Sci-fi movies and books gave us many ideas and some are being implemented as we speak. But we often get ahead of ourselves:
Flying cars,Colonized planets, Human-like AI: not yet, Time travel, Mind-machine neural interfaces for everyone: Only in experimental stages (e.g. Neuralink).
Cyberpunk dystopias: Some vibes (neon signs + inequality + surveillance), but not total dystopia (thankfully).
On the bright side, we predict that the working hours should drop as Ai becomes our helper and there shouldnt be a need to work 8 hours/day. Nobody knows for sure but we can require that from legislation. Instead of waiting to see what the government and billionaires come up with, I say we should design our own future.
So, we as humans, when we dont know something - fear takes over. The same thing happened during the industrial revolution. In the Industrial Era, machines didnt steal jobsthey transformed them but people were scared about their jobs. The AI era is making similar changes except it feels like robots will take the center stage instead of a human. First off, even when it comes to the hottest space in the military - drones, Ai does a fraction of work. AI algorithms enable real-time decision-making, obstacle avoidance, and mission optimization making drones far more autonomous and capable than traditional remote-controlled aircraft. Key technologies include computer vision for object detection, GPS-enhanced navigation, and neural networks for learning and adaptation. But guess what? There are only 2 companies right now that utilize Ai in drones to make autonomous decisions - Skydio and DJI.

From Manual to Auto Searching- FME in the Driver's SeatSafe Software

Finding a specific car online can be a time-consuming task, especially when checking multiple dealer websites. A few years ago, I faced this exact problem while searching for a particular vehicle in New Zealand. The local classified platform, Trade Me (similar to eBay), wasnt yielding any results, so I expanded my search to second-hand dealer sitesonly to realise that periodically checking each one was going to be tedious. Thats when I noticed something interesting: many of these websites used the same platform to manage their inventories. Recognising this, I reverse-engineered the platforms structure and built an FME workspace that automated the search process for me. By integrating API calls and setting up periodic checks, I received real-time email alerts when matching cars were listed. In this presentation, Ill walk through how I used FME to save hours of manual searching by creating a custom car-finding automation system. While FME cant buy a car for youyetit can certainly help you find the one youre after!

1. Core updates from Google periodically change how its algorithms assess and rank websites and pages. This can impact rankings through shifts in user intent, site quality issues being caught up to, world events influencing queries, and overhauls to search like the E-A-T framework.
2. There are many possible user intents beyond just transactional, navigational and informational. Identifying intent shifts is important during core updates. Sites may need to optimize for new intents through different content types and sections.
3. Responding effectively to core updates requires analyzing "before and after" data to understand changes, identifying new intents or page types, and ensuring content matches appropriate intents across video, images, knowledge graphs and more.
