Capricorn Announces Partnership with MQ Technology to Reshape Stablecoin Market Rules

New York, NY, June 7, 2022 – (SEAPRWire) – Capricorn Protocol, a multiple-asset-backed stablecoin project for blockchain platform, has announced its partnership with Malaysia listed MQ Technology (635804-H) to reshape existing market rules. The agreement was officially signed at an offline meeting in Viva Shopping Mall set up by Capricorn Protocol to discuss the fall of UST and address the challenges of the stablecoin market. Both parties hope to make the currently downtrodden sector more convenient for enterprises and individuals alike. In the form of an investment, the collaboration with MQ Technology, the Malaysian listed company at a valuation of $200 million. “We, Capricorn Protocol, are adopting a more convenient way by providing more convenient channels for enterprise financing efficiently and more safely and integrate with the diversified assets using blockchain technology to fill in the gap,” Bryan Teh, Partner of Capricorn. “Under the COVID-19 epidemic, the vulnerability of enterprises is further revealed, facing shortage of funds, encountering the problem of high financing thresholds. After completing all the credit assessment processes, the time for financing applications is too long that the enterprises are often unable to get immediate help.” Said Terrence Cheah, Executive Director of MQ Technology, “the partnership with Capricorn definitely offers us more choice by using its lending protocol, which takes the traditional financial assets on the chain as value support and operation medium through NFT technology and giving full play to its own advantages and empower traditional businesses.” Details of the Offline Capricorn Protocol Meeting During this meeting, MQ Technology and Capricorn Protocol reaffirmed their primary intent to maximize benefits by instituting a strategic and straightforward partnership to deliver a foundation and structure to upscale progress in the industry. Furthermore, the Capricorn Protocol team engaged the guests in a lively conversation that bordered on the recent happenings in the stablecoin market. Discussing the impact of the infamous incident on the nascent stablecoin market, Capricorn Protocol suggests the concept of collateralized stablecoins as the way forward. Citing the Capricorn Protocol as a perfect example, the team reveals CUSD—its stablecoin—is collateral-backed. Highlighting the availability of a valid mechanism, user confidence, and sufficient collateral as a few pillars of a sustainable stablecoin project, Capricorn reveals it is the template its infrastructure is built on. Based on this, CUSD will have adequate credit, and the underlying assets will possess higher capital utilization efficiency. Additionally, the funds actively taking part in Capricorn will receive higher returns. The Capricorn Protocol team anticipates regulatory attention. The team has years of experience in the banking industry, and a few members are familiar with legal and financial laws, with solid compliance compatibility. Capricorn Protocol is well prepared to accelerate the next stage of stablecoins amidst regulatory attention. Capricorn Protocol understands the need for stablecoins in the crypto market. Albeit Bitcoin and Ethereum are ideal payment methods, Capricorn is cheaper and faster. The high volatility of the premier cryptocurrency—Bitcoin— puts users at risk of losing funds. Thus, making it a non-convenient option for payments. “Of course, everything is not easy. It takes time to happen. During this period, we will face many challenges. For example, the market needs time to verify the mechanism of Capricorn, build confidence in Capricorn, and higher barriers to entry, stricter regulation …,” said Bryan Teh, “But even with all the visible and unseen difficulties of the track, someone has to start the race. In the past few years, we have seen the rise and widespread use of stablecoins such as USDT, USDC, DAI, and FRAX, and we have also seen players such as UST, AMPL, BASIS, and ESD who have fallen on this path. With so many successful experiences or failures for us to learn from, and the advantages of our team’s experience and resources in the fields of finance, law, and compliance, I believe that Capricorn can successfully occupy a place on this track.” Capricorn Protocol aims to introduce a new era, akin to the internet, where collateralized stablecoins are the go-to coins. This partnership with MQ Technology will pave the way for reshaping the market. About Capricorn Protocol Capricorn Protocol is a multi-asset-backed protocol with support from an array of assets. Leveraging smart contract and decentralized finance [DeFi], Capricorn issues a collateral-based coin, CUSD, providing lending services based on the token. By adopting an advanced issuance mechanism, Capricorn Protocol guarantees users an equivalent of $1 for 1 CUSD. The Protocol hopes to continuously expand and push for global adoption of the collateral-based coin.

The companies further aim to develop a high-frequency wireless device that utilizes a compound semiconductor(3).Figure: Image of the joint trialsFujitsu positions network technology as an essential element in its efforts to deliver business transformation through digital innovation and ultimately achieve a more sustainable society.Background and tasks6G networks are expected to further accelerate the digitization of society and provide essential solutions to complex societal issues. To this end, global R&D activities focus on further advancing the high-speed, large-capacity, low-latency, and simultaneous multi-connection features of current 5G networks and aim to realize communications with low power consumption with an eye towards the full-scale launch of 6G networks and services around 2030.Wider frequency bands play a significant role in realizing high-speed and large-capacity communication exceeding that of current 5G networks. 100GHz and above are promising frequency bands for 6G networks that would enable communication speeds of over 100 Gbps, which is ten times higher than that of current 5G networks. However, radio waves at higher frequencies tend to be more easily affected by obstacles, which makes communication between distant points difficult.Outline of the joint trialsTo address this issue, Fujitsu, DOCOMO and NTT will conduct joint trials of distributed MIMO(4), a wireless communication technology where multiple sub-terahertz wave antennas are dispersed to simultaneously emit radio waves from multiple directions to a receiving terminal.Through this joint experiment, the three companies aim to develop technology that is resistant to obstruction and realizes stable high-speed wireless communication over 100 Gbps.In order to realize high-speed and large-capacity communications at sub-terahertz waves with small size and low power consumption, Fujitsu aims to develop high-frequency wireless devices utilizing compound semiconductors such as gallium nitride (GaN) and indium phosphorus (InP). Moving forward, Fujitsu will promote the development of technologies for the realization of practical applications for 6G and actively engage in global 6G standardization activities to contribute to solving societal issues through R&D.Naoki Tani, Executive Vice President and Chief Technology Officer at DOCOMO, comments: "DOCOMO has been collaborating with Fujitsu since 2014 to verify wireless technologies towards the realization of 5G, and has leveraged the obtained know-how to provide 5G commercial services since 2020. We are delighted to collaborate with Fujitsu also towards the realization of the 6G concept. DOCOMO and NTT will initiate experimental trials with Fujitsu to establish 6G wireless technologies for sub-THz communication using 100 GHz and 300 GHz band, and make a solid contribution to 6G commercialization with a variety of industry partners."[1] NTT DOCOMO, INC.:Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; President & CEO: Motoyuki Ii.[2] Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation (NTT): Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Jun Sawada.[3] Compound semiconductor: A semiconductor consisting of two or more elements such as GaN (gallium nitride) and InP (indium phosphorus).

Yokogawa and DOCOMO Successfully Conduct Test of Remote Control Technology Using 5G, Cloud, and AI

TOKYO, May 30, 2022 - (JCN Newswire via SEAPRWire.com) - Yokogawa Electric Corporation (TOKYO: 6841) and NTT DOCOMO, INC. (DOCOMO) announced today that they have conducted a proof-of-concept test (PoC) of a remote control technology for industrial processing. The PoC test involved the use of an autonomous control AI, the Factorial Kernel Dynamic Policy Programming (FKDPP) algorithm(1) developed by Yokogawa and the Nara Institute of Science and Technology, in a cloud environment and a fifth-generation (5G) mobile communications network provided by DOCOMO. The test, which successfully controlled a simulated plant processing operation, demonstrated that 5G is suitable for the remote control of actual plant processes.PoC overviewEnvisioned future application of 5G, cloud, and AI for industrial autonomyThe trend to locate production facilities in remote and/or hazardous areas in recent years is fueling a growing demand for remote industrial operations and transforming how people work. Meanwhile, equipment used in plants to purify and refine resources and materials for essential products can deteriorate after many years of use, so remote, autonomous regulation and control would be hugely beneficial. One possible solution is to install edge devices equipped for high-speed wireless communications at plants and employ cloud-based autonomous control AI to control the equipment dynamically. Yokogawa has already proven that its FKDPP algorithm is a feasible autonomous control AI solution. In a field test at a chemical plant(2) this past February, for 35 days FKDPP successfully controlled processes known to be difficult to automate using existing PID(3) and APC(4) control technologies, and which therefore had been performed manually. The combination of FKDPP and the cloud with 5G, which offers low latency and the capability to connect a large number of devices, promises to be a core technology for achieving industrial autonomy.Following an agreement between Yokogawa and DOCOMO announced on April 14, 2021, the demonstration test was conducted to verify whether a three tank level control system(5) could be controlled using FKDPP in the cloud via a 5G network. A target water level was set, tests with low- to high-speed control cycles were conducted, and the effects of mobile-communications latency on FKDPP control were confirmed. Compared to 4G, the test demonstrated that especially with high-speed control, 5G delivers 1) lower latency, 2) less overshoot relative to the target water level, and 3) is capable of handling a control cycle as short as 0.2 seconds, thereby achieving better control for more stable quality and higher energy efficiency.Yokogawa, which has been advocating the concept of industrial automation to industrial autonomy (IA2IA) since 2019, aims to apply 5G technology for remote plant control. In collaboration with DOCOMO and customers, it will continue carrying out advanced initiatives aimed at facilitating a shift toward industrial autonomy.DOCOMO is continuing to enhance and evolve its network technologies, create advanced networks tailored to the needs of specific customers, and develop 5G solutions for diverse public and private purposes.Both Yokogawa and DOCOMO, as members of the 5G Alliance for Connected Industries and Automation (5G-ACIA), which is pursuing industrial applications for 5G, will continue to evaluate the use of 5G for remote, autonomous plant operations. By carrying out demonstrations in a wide range of customers' plants and examining communications reliability and latency-related issues during long-term use, the companies will strive to achieve 5G and AI-enabled autonomous control. The 5G-ACIA will present the results of this demonstration test at Hannover Messe 2022*6, between May 30 and June 2.(1) The FKDPP AI algorithm, which uses reinforcement learning technology, can be applied to all kinds of control applications, including those that cannot be automated with existing control methods such as PID control or APC, to achieve conventionally challenging simultaneous goals, such as high quality and energy efficiency (see attachment for details).(2) See press release (In a World First, Yokogawa and JSR Use AI to Autonomously Control a Chemical Plant for 35 Consecutive Days: https://www.yokogawa.com/news/press-releases/2022/2022-03-22/)(3) Proportional-Integral-Derivative control, first proposed by Nicolas Minorsky in 1922, is an infrastructure-control technology for processing industries that is used to control items such as quantity, temperature, level, pressure, and ingredients. It implements control aimed at target values based on P, I and D calculations according to deviations between current and set values. In some cases, due to the characteristics of the mathematical expression, a value might exceed (overshoot) the set value or take time to settle to avoid overshoot.(4) Advanced Process Control uses a mathematical model to predict process responses and supply set values to the PID control loop in real time in order to improve productivity, quality, and controllability. It is easily applied for control to increase production, reduce labor time, and save energy. APC results in smaller deviations in data, making it possible to more closely approach the limits of operating performance (i.e., optimal performance), but it is not adept at responding to the rapid vaporization of fluids, similar chemical reactions, major changes in material composition, and changes in machinery.(5) A three tank level control system that is used for training and experiments involving the regulation of water flow from one level to the next with the aim of controlling the water level at the lowest tank.(6) One of the world's largest international manufacturing exhibitions, which attracted some 6,500 companies and 220,000 people in 2019. https://www.hannovermesse.de/en/For more information, visit www.docomo.ne.jp/english/info/media_center/pr/2022/0530_00.html.About YokogawaYokogawa provides advanced solutions in the areas of measurement, control, and information to customers across a broad range of industries, including energy, chemicals, materials, pharmaceuticals, and food.

Hitachi and Hitachi Astemo Developed Thin-type Inverter Technology for EVs That is More Compact and Energy Efficient

TOKYO, May 25, 2022 - (JCN Newswire via SEAPRWire.com) - Hitachi, Ltd (TSE: 6501) and Hitachi Astemo, Ltd. have developed basic technology for a thin-type inverter that achieves both energy conservation and miniaturization as a power converter (inverter) for electric vehicles (EVs). This technology simplifies power wiring by integrating power semiconductors(1) that control power supply with printed circuit boards. Compared to conventional products, the thin-type inverter reduces energy loss when power semiconductors are switched by 30% and is approximately 50%(2) smaller. The new design eliminates the need for welding of power semiconductors and power wiring, and the number of components and assembly processes required are also reduced. As a result, throughout the lifecycle of the inverter, including the production process, CO2 emissions are reduced.Hitachi and Hitachi Astemo will accelerate efforts to commercialize the thin-type inverter technology, and Hitachi will contribute to the realization of a carbon-neutral society by applying this technology to a wide range of applications, including not only EVs but also EV fast- charging systems and power transmission systems.The electrification of automobiles is rapidly advancing as the world aims towards a decarbonized society. Inverters are an essential component of EVs, converting DC power from the battery to AC power and controlling the rotation of the motor. Inverters are also important components for the effective use of energy, including fast-charging systems for EVs and power transmission systems for renewable energy. As the introduction of EVs and renewable energy increases in the future, inverters with conventional structures will require larger power semiconductors and peripheral components to control the power supply, which will increase energy loss and complicate the assembly process.Hitachi and Hitachi Astemo have been providing inverters for various applications to customers around the world and have now developed the basic technology for a thin-type inverter with a completely different structure. The features are as follows:1. Technology to integrate power semiconductors and inverter circuit components with printed circuit boardsInverters are composed of power semiconductors that turn large currents on and off, and circuit components that conduct large currents. Because power semiconductors generate heat when high current is applied, conventional structures require separate assembly of power semiconductors and inverter circuit components and their connection with wiring. As a result, the entire inverter structure is complex, making it difficult to reduce energy loss and the size of the inverter.Hitachi and Hitachi Astemo have now developed a basic technology that avoids the problem of heat generation by integrating the power semiconductors on a printed wiring substrate that incorporates the inverter circuit components. This technology simplifies the power wiring inside the inverter and reduces inductance(3), resulting in a 30% reduction in the energy loss generated when the power semiconductors switch on and off, and thus reducing heat generation. The size of the inverter is also successfully reduced by 50% compared to conventional products.2. Mounting technology to reduce the number of components and processes required for assemblyConventional inverters use many copper plate components called busbars(4) to supply large currents to power semiconductors, which must be connected by welding or other means. This required many parts and assembly processes, making it difficult to improve production efficiency. With the mounting technology, power semiconductors and circuit components are mounted on a compact, lightweight, thin printed wiring board, successfully eliminating the need for busbars. This has greatly simplified the production process, reducing the number of components and assembly steps. The technology reduces energy consumption in the production process and contributes to the reduction of CO2 emissions over the lifecycle of the inverter.(1) Semiconductors that can pass or stop a larger amount of power than ordinary semiconductors. Si (silicon) has been mainly used as a material, but the practical application of SiC (silicon carbide), which is high-performance and energy-saving, has been progressing. The structure of the newly developed product is based on Si power semiconductors, but it can also be applied to SiC.(2) Compared to Hitachi's conventional product (100kW class).(3) A value that determines the magnitude of voltage induced in the wiring of AC circuit. Large inductance leads to an increase in surge voltage and energy loss.(4) A conductor to carry a large current.The developed inverter will be exhibited at the Automotive Engineering Exposition 2022 to be held at Pacifico Yokohama from May 25, 2022.About Hitachi, Ltd.Hitachi drives Social Innovation Business, creating a sustainable society with data and technology.

NovationWire: Predictions of How Blockchain Will Influence Other Industries in 2022

Hong Kong, May 13, 2022 – (NovationWire) – Tailor Insight, the Asia based market research institute, has released a report on ‘Predictions of How Blockchain Will Influence Other Industries in 2022’. During 2022, spending on blockchain solutions by businesses is forecast to hit $11.7 billion. Here are some of the trends that will be driving this and some thoughts on how this will influence more and more lives over the course of the next year. Blockchain and supply chains Supply chains – the links between the creation and distribution of goods – have always been disrupted by innovation. Today’s supply chains are extremely complex, threading multiple continents, including huge numbers of invoices and payments, involving myriad entities, and potentially extending over months. Due to this complexity, blockchain is an attractive means to transform the supply chain and logistics industry. When goods are transferred to a new step in the supply chain, the process can be logged securely and permanently, creating an immutable, auditable history from its point of origin to that of sale. Blockchain and business Blockchain technology has huge implications for business, with the main drivers for adoption being higher revenue, lower costs, and more efficient use of time. During 2022, we are likely to see a great deal of emphasis on attempts to “greenify” blockchain. There are a few ways this can be done, including carbon offsetting, although many people consider that this often equates to simply patching up a wound that should not have been caused in the first place. Another is by moving to less energy-intensive models of blockchain technology – typically those that rely on “proof-of-stake” algorithms rather than “proof-of-work” to generate consensus. Blockchain and legal field In law, blockchain technology can be used to create smart contracts, as well as validate ownership documents such as title deeds. If used to validate, authenticate, and secure courtroom evidence, blockchain could improve efficiency in the criminal justice system. Blockchain and real estate Real estate transactions are usually expensive, paperwork-heavy, and require the assistance of agents. Blockchain has the potential to ease the process of finding and buying real estate through tokenization, using digital real estate tokens to represent physical assets. Blockchain and financial services One area predicted to continue evolving with blockchain technology is cross-border payments. Blockchain and healthcare innovations Blockchain’s open yet highly secure nature makes it a natural fit for improving healthcare. Patient information, for example, can be stored in an incorruptible, decentralized, and transparent database, making it safe but accessible to patients and healthcare practitioners alike.

NEC X Announces Fifth AI Start-up to Graduate from its Corporate Accelerator Program

TOKYO and PALO ALTO, Calif. , Apr 27, 2022 - (JCN Newswire via SEAPRWire.com) - NEC Corporation, a leader in IT and network technologies, and NEC X, the innovation accelerator for NEC's emerging technologies, announced today that Beagle Technology is the fifth start-up to graduate from the NEC X Corporate Accelerator Program (CAP).Beagle Technology has developed unique computer vision and robot control technologies, supported by NEC technology researchers, to automate pruning and shoot thinning of wine grapevines. The machine detects the height and depth of vines using computer vision. It then adjusts, locates clippers, and cuts vines at precise locations. This patent-pending solution replaces manual operation, provides improved accuracy and speed, and reduces cost by about 25% for pruning and 70% for shoot thinning."Beagle Technology implemented an AI solution in an effort to address the decreasing labor force in the agriculture industry," said Shige Ihara, CEO of NEC X. "They put their solution to use in real-life scenarios by testing 400 acres for pruning with several paying clients they obtained during the customer validation phase of NEC X CAP. In addition, they started a paid shoot thinning trial this year involving 250 acres with one of the top Washington-based commercial growers. We are very impressed with their success and excited to see Beagle Technology spin out of NEC X and move on to the next phase of their growth.""We have experienced a 25% reduction in farm labor since 2000 in the USA," said Yang Fang, CEO, and Co-founder of Beagle Technology. "Growers are desperate for solutions to sustain operation with the scarcity of labor supply and rising cost. At the beginning of 2021, I started working with the NEC X program director and researchers to study how to solve this problem. I am excited that we made a lot of progress in the past year. We integrated AI and robotics software with traditional equipment to mechanize manual operations, resulting in far superior accuracy and consistency. Today we are working with five wine grape growers, including The Wine Group and Foley Family Farm, and estimate to scale up to thousands of acres in the next season."In addition to Beagle Technology, NEC X accelerates stealth-mode start-ups, including a video advertisement platform, a drone rescue service, insole sensors for medical applications and a group mental resilience service, all aiming to raise funds later this year.
