Hyperconnect, Key to social platform success: reflecting the ‘user voice’

- From tailored engagement features to high standards of community safety — proactively reflecting the needs of “MZ” generation users Social platforms that are popular among the so-called “MZ” generations (Millennials and Generation Z combined) seem to share a common practice: they listen to their users and structure products according to direct feedback. As the protagonists in a new digital era, MZ users are shaping social services through their demands for live, interactive content against a safe and friendly community backdrop. ■ Hakuna Live enables diverse experiences and ensures safe communities Hakuna Live, the second hit project launched by Seoul-based video and AI technology company Hyperconnect, takes the traditional live streaming concept — where one “mega host” broadcasts to many — and enhances it via multi-way communication modes. Dubbed ‘social live streaming’, Hakuna helps every user find his or her place in the social universe — from light chat to counseling, quiz shows, rap battles, casual games and more. As entertainment consumption continues its shift online in the era of COVID-19, Hakuna Live is rapidly growing by introducing MZ-targeted features. For example, Hakuna’s “Guest Mode” allows up to four to co-broadcast simultaneously through a split screen layout, enabling a diverse playground-like experience; Augmented Reality (AR) Avatar mode allows streamers and guests to express themselves with fun, facial data-based characters. This year, Hakuna expects to expand upon its Guest Mode with “Group Chat Live’, allowing up to six people to chat together, further blurring the traditional lines between entertainer and entertained Critically, Hakuna Live is acutely focused on maintaining a safe online community and has spared no expense in building advanced artificial intelligence-powered monitoring systems that can automatically detect and report and variety of unwanted content. Hyperconnect also assembled a Community Safety Supervision Committee in November 2020, consisting of former partners from reputable law firms and former judges. Hakuna Live is currently serviced in 10 countries — including Japan, Turkey, India, North America, and Taiwan — and is planning to expand its MZ-focused launch even further this year. ■ After the success of ‘Snow', Naver’s ‘ZEPETO’ gains ground through a user-first focus The augmented reality avatar platform ZEPETO, operated by Naver Z, now counts over 180 million amongst its global subscriber base — in just two years after its launch. ZEPETO is a product squarely aimed at the MZ users with its 3D avatar environment that uses the latest in facial recognition and AR technology. ZEPETO has also actively catered towards MZ users through its partnerships with generation-relevant content, reportedly earning over 12 billion won from its partnership with Big Hit Entertainment and YG Entertainment and 5 billion won from its partnership with JYP. ZEPETO’s success follows the positive feedback that the Naver-owned ‘Snow’ received from users after adding augmented reality capabilities to its camera app. ■ Facebook’s shift towards “followers” over “likes” To keep up with the needs and feedback of its younger users, Facebook too recently announced plans for a meaningful overhaul to its platform. For example, on pages used by public figures, the 'Like' function — which has been the target of much negative press — has been dropped in favor of focusing on 'follower' count. This change, which positions Facebook as something closer to YouTube and Instagram, is intended give creators a firmer indication of their fan base Facebook had reportedly tested the deletion of ‘Like’ in a number of markets and ultimately made the determination based on user feedback. Facebook will also introduce a dedicated news feed and Q&A function for active exchanges between friends, colleagues, and fans — a step towards deepening “communication” between users, which is highly valued by MZ generations.

Hyperconnect : real-time video AI monitoring system can now auto-block live video content within 0.006 seconds

- Serverless “on-device” artificial intelligence technology pre-filters content at lightning-fast-speeds - Substantial continued investment in user community health and safety According to a representative from Hyperconnect, a recent update enables the company’s real-time video artificial intelligence (AI) monitoring system to pre-block and filter content within 0.006 seconds. Hyperconnect, the Seoul-based AI and video technology company behind Azar and Hakuna Live, has been focused on developing deep learning-based AI monitoring systems for several years. Hyperconnect developed the initial iteration of its AI monitoring system in 2017 — a global-first system capable of filtering content in a live video environment without data ever hitting the server. Dubbed “on-device artificial intelligence”, Hyperconnect’s AI engine drives powerful in-app capabilities directly on a user's device where the app is installed. Since live video can be monitored — and users protected — without data leaving the device, user privacy is preserved. Since then, Hyperconnect has continued to invest aggressively in improving monitoring performance. Depending on mobile device specification, in less than one-tenth of one second — as fast as 0.004 seconds on an iPhone XR and 0.006 seconds for Galaxy S10 devices — content that violates user guidelines in can be automatically concealed from other users. "We have reinforced user protection with the world's best AI monitoring technology, which, along with hundreds of monitoring personnel, is able to block inappropriate content in 0.006 seconds or less for Galaxy S10 users," according to HyunTaek “Eddie” Yong, Hyperconnect's Chief Technology Officer. “Hyperconnect will continue to channel company-wide resources into the development of technologies and best practices that protect users and create healthy user environments.” Recently, Hyperconnect’s AI monitoring system was deployed to its newest social app products: Slide, a social discovery dating app launched in the North American and German markets, and 'Hakuna Live', a social live streaming service available in several markets globally. Hyperconnect’s advanced monitoring technology will also be packaged into the upcoming SDK from Hyperconnect Enterprise, enabling corporate clients globally to create safe and fun environments within various types of live, video services.

  [CES 2021] LG Emphasized "Needs to Innovate Beyond Boundaries Between Fields in the New Normal Era" Through Future Talk

  On January 12th, LG Electronics (LG) held an LG Future Talk with the theme of "ONwards, Together" at CES 2021. CES 2021, an international electronic show on January 11-14, 2021 (PST), is held entirely digitally this year due to COVID-19. As the host of LG Future Talk, Dr. I.P. Park, LG Electronics President and Chief Technology Officer, introduced innovative products and new products, such as LG Electronics' CLOi robots and Smart Thermal Camera, in response to the pandemic. He unveiled a new report introducing the current development stages of artificial intelligence. Also, he led the event by highlighting the innovation that cooperates to lead the new normal era with the LG ThinQ application. Gary Shapiro, president and CEO of the Consumer Technology Association (CTA), David Rabie, CEO of Tovala, Jean-François Gagné, CEO of Element AI, and Dmitry Loschinin, executive vice president of DXC Technology and CEO of Luxoft, attended the Future Talk as panels to discuss future technology and vision. ▲ Dr. I.P. Park and Amy Aleha hosted the Future Talk. (LG Electronics) First, while the world is facing a pandemic, Dr. Park explained that practical technologies must support implementing solutions for continuous change in everyday life. He claimed that to lead the new normal era, which is rapidly changing at a scale and speed beyond imagination, LG will emphasize innovation to cooperate with platform competitiveness beyond boundaries even by joining hands with competitors and coming up with an open innovation strategy. Accordingly, Dr. Park showcased various LG CLOi robots, such as a delivery robot and sterilization robot using UV-C (Ultraviolet-C) lamps, and LG PuriCare Wearable Air Purifier, which is applied with air cleaning technology, and Smart Thermal Camera. Shapiro emphasized the importance of open partnerships to promote digital innovation and cited the "LG Innovation Council" as a prime example. The LG Innovation Council, which operates to discover future technologies and new business opportunities through various insights from an open innovation perspective, is chaired by Dr. Park and participated by 12 experts in each field such as artificial intelligence, big data, cloud, robot, and mobility. ▲ Shapiro pointed out the LG Innovation Council as a prime example for digital innovations. This open approach to innovation provides the basis for everything that LG is working towards, especially under its LG ThinQ brand, which encompasses its AI and IoT-enabled devices. Dr. Park outlined LG's plans to develop an ecosystem by connecting all products and services across categories, providing consumers with a fulfilling user experience and unsurpassed convenience. LG Electronics plans to expand the ecosystem of the LG ThinQ app by collaborating with Tovala, a smart oven and meal-kit company, and to create new customer value related to diet. When a customer scans the barcode written on the meal-kit package with the LG ThinQ app, the oven automatically sets the optimal cooking course. Pre-heating, cooking temperature, and time settings are not required, so it is convenient. Customers can also purchase Tovala's Meal-Kit from the LG ThinQ app. LG Electronics has cooperated with global food companies Nestle and Kraft-Heinz within this year so that customers can purchase foods using the LG ThinQ app. Dr. Park introduced a service that applies to install home appliances in different spaces with the LG ThinQ app through a partnership with HomeAdvisor, an American home services company. ▲ LG ThinQ app, an upgraded intelligent lifestyle platform, was unveiled. (LG Electronics) Last year, at CES 2020, LG Electronics announced artificial intelligence (AI) steps developed with Element AI, an artificial intelligence company. AI development consists of four stages; Efficiency, Personalization, Reasoning, and Exploration. This year, LG Electronics unveiled the "AIX Exchange", a report in the form of interactive content created with experts in various fields such as AI, robotics, consumer rights, and ethics. This report explains the future of AI as viewed by experts in each area and the role of AI development stages. Accordingly, Dr. Park introduced the "Vision Pack," which allows users to experience artificial intelligence in the stages of Personalization (stage 2) and Reasoning (stage 3). Vision Pack uses deep learning technology to understand the user and situation by putting visual intelligence that determines images into the product. For instance, by applying Vision Pack to the refrigerator, users can check the inside of the fridge outside the house and purchase only the necessary items. Also, it can recommend recipes according to the ingredients in the fridge and the users' preferences. LG Electronics also announced that Alluto, a joint venture established with Swiss-based global software company Luxoft, will be launched on the 27th of this month. Based on the webOS Auto platform, Alluto will introduce an integrated infotainment system for vehicles, including a head unit and a rear-seat entertainment system (RSE) to the market.

  DJO® Acquires Trilliant Surgical

  Acquisition furthers expansion into growing foot and ankle surgery market DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--DJO, LLC (DJO or the Company), a leading global provider of medical technologies to get and keep people moving, today announced the acquisition of Trilliant Surgical®, a national provider of foot and ankle orthopedic implants. The acquisition of Trilliant Surgical’s leading product technologies and clinical efficacy supports DJO’s focused expansion into the adjacent high-growth $1 billion US foot and ankle market. In addition to having a broad product portfolio that covers the full universe of foot recon/fixation procedures, Trilliant Surgical is the only provider of the novel Arsenal Foot Plating System™. With unique features designed for greater flexibility and speed of implant placement supporting ease of use, less waste and reduced OR time, Arsenal is poised to be a plating leader. “Trilliant’s market-leading portfolio of foot and ankle solutions complements our acquisition of the STAR™ system and creates a dedicated foot and ankle business that significantly expands our mission of Powering Motion,” said Brady Shirley, CEO of DJO. “We are committed to building our Reconstructive segment and believe that the foot and ankle space is a great fit for our focused innovation and solutions approach that has allowed DJO to be a growth leader in the upper extremity market for many years.” Among the factors driving the high-growth foot and ankle market are a rapidly growing elderly population, sports-related injuries, and the increasing prevalence of diabetes and related lower-extremity conditions. The Arsenal system addresses a number of mid- and hind-foot procedures and will be extended to ankle, with the potential to achieve significant additional penetration of medical procedures. “As a foot and ankle champion since 2007, we are excited to join the DJO family and expand Trilliant Surgical’s positive patient impact globally,” said Jon Olson, CEO of Trilliant Surgical. “DJO’s unparalleled commitment to new product development, their iconic brands and strong growth trajectory will accelerate Trilliant’s ability to grow, innovate and improve patient outcomes.” Total Ankle Replacement DJO’s expansion into foot and ankle surgery complements its strong position in Total Ankle Replacements; in 2020, DJO acquired the Scandinavian Total Ankle Replacement (STAR) System, which holds a leading position in the global ankle arthroplasty market.
