OPPO

PARIS, FRANCE – Media OutReach - 8 November 2023 – At Paris Photo 2023, one of the world’s largest international art fairs dedicated to photography, Global technology brand OPPO and the legendary camera manufacturer, Hasselblad, today announced a joint venture to co-develop the next generation of HyperTone Camera Systems in 2024. Following aesthetics, HyperTone Camera Systems will usher in a new era in computational photography. The systems will initially arrive in future Find series flagships, providing users with an unprecedented mobile imaging experience beyond imagination. OPPO Imaging Director Oliver Zhang said: “Thanks to the HyperTone Camera System which follows aesthetics, the Find X6 Series is positively received by both the public and professionals. With Find N3 Series, we also brought flagship-level imaging experience for foldables for the first time. I am delighted that our collaboration with Hasselblad has now entered a new phase. By combining classic imaging aesthetics with mobile technology, OPPO and Hasselblad have developed an aesthetic system that is tailored for mobile imaging. In 2024, the two companies will launch the next generation HyperTone Camera Systems and Hasselblad camera experience that promise to continue to set new industry standards.” Bronius Rudnickas, Hasselblad Global Marketing Manager, said: "We are very pleased to see OPPO’s latest advancements in mobile imaging, which allow people to use their smartphone to bring their creativity to life through photography. Our continued collaboration to build the next-generation HyperTone Camera Systems is a huge project, that is not just a simple inheritance of style. Instead, it is a more organic and in-depth integration of the aesthetics and technology between both brands that will provide photography enthusiasts with enhanced image quality and stylized experiences, beyond what’s achievable on typical mobile phones. I am looking forward to sharing the results of our collaboration with all the creators next year." Following aesthetics, OPPO is leading a revolution in mobile imaging As a pioneer in mobile imaging, OPPO is leading a revolution by following aesthetics rather than relying on industry traditions of certain technical specifications. This new approach allows the objective technical process to serve the subjective aesthetic of users. The Photography Aesthetics Feature Quantification Lab is made up of 10% photography technicians, 50% professional photographers, and 40% color experts. Through feature breakdown, solutions planning, and precise tuning, OPPO has created a new photography technology development system, ushering in a new era in computational photography. HyperTone Camera System OPPO’s HyperTone Camera System consists of HyperTone All Main Camera System, HyperTone Image Engine, and HyperTone ProXDR Display, to deliver end-to-end system-level imaging capabilities. In addition to Find series flagships, the technical architecture of HyperTone Camera System will empower multiple OPPO product series in the future, for flagship imaging experience with consistent aesthetics and exceptional quality. To meet users’ mobile imaging needs, HyperTone Camera System offers the first-ever All Main Camera System in the industry. It enables high image qualities for every focal length whether it’s day or night. In the Find N3, OPPO brings the stack pixel technology sensor to foldable phones for the first time, achieving performance similar to a one-inch sensor that can be fitted into a foldable. Following aesthetics, HyperTone Image Engine solves many issues in traditional computational photography, achieving fewer digital artifacts with more computation. Extra HD Algorithm, for example, improves clarity by 30% while reducing noise by 60% by using AI RAW fusion. The new algorithm requires 400% more computing power, but it results in cleaner and clearer details after processing. Photo viewing is an indispensable part of a great imaging experience. HyperTone Camera System comes with the industry-leading HyperTone ProXDR Display. By precisely recording the brightness of 12 million pixels, ProXDR technology can unlock up to eight times more dynamic range on-screen, restoring the natural tone to make viewing photos much more realistic. Additionally, OPPO is also working to make ProXDR compatible with the Ultra HDR standard. Hasselblad Portrait Mode Portrait is not only one of the most popular camera features, but it also represents the most cutting-edge innovation of computational photography. Following aesthetics, Hasselblad Portrait Mode provides portrait photography effects that lead the industry. Through the HyperTone Engine, Hasselblad Portrait Mode initiates delicate tonal changes to create a three-dimensional portrait that avoids brightening the face too much and smoothing out light and shadow. By optimizing with 45 times more skin tone colors, Hasselblad Portrait Mode offers more accurate skin tones. And with Bokeh Flare Portrait, users can get a cinematic bokeh effect that truly simulates the optical out-of-focus effect. Work shot using OPPO phones at Paris Photo In 2023, OPPO launched the imagine IF Project to break through the existing limitations of mobile imaging with global users. As a key part of the project, the OPPO imagine IF Photography Awards 2023 has received over 700,000 submissions from 51 countries and regions. The 26th Paris Photo event will be held in Paris, France between November 9-14, 2023. As the only smartphone brand participating in Paris Photo this year, OPPO presented a series of exceptional images, including the works of world-class photographers and the winning works from the OPPO imagine IF Photography Awards 2023. OPPO's presence at Paris Photo serves as a bridge for fostering cross-cultural communication, revealing new possibilities of mobile imaging to photographers, collectors and artists worldwide.

Mainz Biomed’s (NASDAQ: MYNZ) ColoFuture Study Reveals “Groundbreaking Results”: ColoAlert® Raises The Bar For Colorectal Cancer Detection

Benzinga

By Faith Ashmore, Benzinga Throughout the world, colorectal cancer has emerged as the third most prevalent form of cancer. Traditionally observed in individuals aged 45 and above, this malignancy is now displaying a troubling trend of affecting younger individuals. Startling data indicates a consistent increase in newly diagnosed cases of colorectal cancer among those under the age of 50 over the past few decades. In fact, the National Cancer Institute reports that colorectal cancer has become the leading cause of cancer-related deaths for Americans aged 20 to 59 years old. Despite these alarming statistics, routine colorectal cancer screenings for younger adults remain relatively uncommon due to its perceived rarity within this age group. Mainz Biomed (NASDAQ: MYNZ), a company that specializes in developing molecular genetic diagnostic solutions for life-threatening conditions, has created ColoAlert®, an innovative product that addresses the need for easier and more accessible cancer screenings for quick detection and treatment of colorectal cancer. This non-invasive and user-friendly test aims to make colorectal cancer screening fast, simple and precise. The company reports that the test is the first DNA-based screening test for colorectal cancer in Europe. Mainz recently announced significant advancements with the presentation of its highly anticipated ColoFuture Study results. Originally slated for presentation at the 4th International Conference on Gastroenterology in Paris, the event has been rescheduled from October to December, and Mainz Biomed, in collaboration with the Conference leadership, decided to align the release of the ColoFuture results with the original conference timeline. The ColoFuture study, a comprehensive multinational clinical trial, evaluated the potential integration of innovative gene expression biomarkers (mRNA) into the company's cutting-edge screening test for colorectal cancer (CRC) called ColoAlert. The company reports that this test, which is currently being introduced to markets across Europe and select international regions, has proven to be highly effective and user-friendly. The groundbreaking study results that were presented showcased the following findings: a 94% sensitivity for colorectal cancer (CRC), 97% specificity, and an 80% sensitivity for advanced adenoma (AA). These outcomes reinforce Mainz Biomed's commitment to delivering innovative advancements in cancer detection, and the company reports that they beat competitors whose AA hovers around the 40% number. As the company looks towards the future, it seems to be dedicated to enhancing its portfolio of diagnostic solutions and expanding its presence in global markets. Mainz Biomed also recently announced Tarrin Khairi-Taraki as the Vice President of Commercial Operations, EMEA. Tarrin’s appointment marks an important milestone in Mainz Biomed’s journey towards continued success. As Vice President, Tarrin will be tasked with the commercialization of the company's flagship product, ColoAlert. In his new role, Tarrin will bring his vast expertise and experience to Mainz Biomed's global teams, with a particular focus on driving sales growth and expanding the company's footprint throughout the EMEA region. With his successful track record in sales management and commercial operations at leading life sciences organizations like Alutia (NASDAW: ELUT), Tarrin is poised to advance the company's strategic goals by identifying and executing new market opportunities. His leadership will be instrumental in accelerating Mainz Biomed's growth trajectory and enhancing its impact on the global cancer detection market. “I am thrilled to welcome Tarrin to the Mainz Biomed team,” commented Darin Leigh, Chief Commercial Officer at Mainz Biomed. “With his highly-impressive track record and wealth of experience in the medical diagnostic field, I am confident he’ll play a crucial role in propelling our continued success in the commercialization of ColoAlert®.” With the appointment of Tarrin and the release of data showing efficacy, Mainz Biomed seems poised to disrupt the market and establish itself as a trusted and innovative provider of molecular genetic diagnostic solutions. The company’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of diagnostic technology and growth trajectory seems to be making it a force to be reckoned with in the industry, setting it apart from its competitors.

FantasiaChain’s Revolutionary FST Token Counters Speculation and Inflation Through Innovative Community Financial Mechanism

King Newswire

FantasiaChain, an ambitious blockchain project, has developed a groundbreaking token called FST that leverages a proprietary Community Financial mechanism to counter the rampant issues of speculation and inflation plaguing the cryptocurrency industry. At the heart of FST is a pricing formula that directly ties the token's value to community financial behaviors, revolving around 3 key actions: buying, selling, and saving. Notably, the Saving behavior plays a crucial role in determining the price of FST during the private sale period. The value of FST increases only when the majority of FST is deposited into savings, and conversely, it decreases when the majority is freely circulating. FST ensures resistance against speculation and inflation, because the FST accumulation without saving behavior and the massive issuance of FST both leading to an increase in the amount of freely circulating FST and a subsequent decrease in its price. “I built FantasiaChain and FST token to safeguard against the market manipulation we’ve seen with other crypto assets,” said Henry Nguyen, Founder and CEO/CTO of FantasiaChain. “FST is the first token engineered so that hoarding diminishes its value, ensuring a fair and transparent market for all.” Launched in May 2021, FantasiaChain employs a Proof of Authority consensus model that aims to put authority back into the hands of the community, not concentrated minorities. The ecosystem is designed to empower users to steer the direction and value of projects they have invested in. “FantasiaChain is built on the Community Finance mechanism, designed to empower and give authority back to the community, because they rightfully deserve it,” added Nguyen. FST holders are incentivized to save their tokens with attractive 15% APY saving interest paid in USDT on a monthly basis. This saving behavior feeds into the FST pricing formula, allowing active users to directly influence value based on real community adoption metrics. Additionally, FantasiaChain enacted a first-of-its-kind FST buyback mechanism. This function allows investors to sell directly back to FantasiaChain in case of personal liquidity needs, ensuring reliable liquidity without relying on external exchanges. FantasiaChain’s bone structure of Community Finance aims to set a new standard in the cryptocurrency sphere, where projects are not dominated by the minority with significant economic power. Instead, the community has the power to minimize fraudulent behavior, prevent bubbles, and call the shots on which directions development should pursue. The project has bold plans to expand its vision of community finance even further. FantasiaChain intends to establish a robust ecosystem where token holders have authority over the core values and choices of the projects they collectively invest in. With crypto's trajectory increasingly mirroring traditional finance, FantasiaChain offers an alternate vision of transparency, fairness, and democratic control. FST gives the community a real stake in determining valuations and steering development, resisting the speculation and inflation that have become endemic to the crypto landscape. Engineered for stability and adopted by a spirited community, FST represents a new breed of cryptocurrency focused on tangible utility not short-term profits. FantasiaChain's model offers a blueprint for finance by the people, of the people, and for the people. About FantasiaChain: FantasiaChain was founded by Henry Nguyen in May 2021 to develop the FST token and bring the truly Community Finance to life. The project is headquartered in Singapore and employs Proof of Authority blockchain consensus. For more information on FantasiaChain and its mission, visit www.fantasiachain.com.
