Durham, NC, January 18, 2019 --(PR.com)-- Many school systems are opting for Chromebooks in their classrooms. More durable Chromebooks can offer a better investment by potentially alleviating repair and replacement expenditures. PT put three Chromebooks—a Dell Chromebook 5190, an HP Chromebook 11 G6EE, and a Lenovo 100e Chromebook—through a series of durability tests featuring hinge cycles (opening and closing the devices) and micro-drops (from about four inches high). These are common things that students do to their Chromebooks throughout the school day.

According to the report, “The Dell Chromebook 5190 was more durable—it withstood more micro-drops and hinge cycles than the other two Chromebooks. In fact, the Dell Chromebook 5190 showed only slight damage and minor functional issues well after the Lenovo and HP Chromebooks became non-functional.”

To learn more about how school systems can avoid extensive repair and replacement costs by choosing the more durable Dell Chromebook 5190, read the full report at http://facts.pt/5wmb21h.

Bethesda, MD, January 19, 2019 --(PR.com)-- A recent survey of 1500 U.S. drivers reveals car owners want more sophisticated features in the areas of safety, time savings, maintenance, cost reduction and driving experience from their connected vehicles.

Results of the survey contained in DMI’s new eBook From Connected to Autonomous: A Vision of Future Auto Travel surveyed drivers about the features they currently use in their cars, as well as the features they desire in the future. The survey was conducted among drivers of 2014 vehicles or newer representing a dozen brands.

Top 5 features connected car owners are currently using today:
1. Access navigation or destination assistance
2. Receive notifications about the status of the vehicle
3. Save favorite destinations
4. Plan the optimal route for a journey
5. Send and receive texts, calls, emails via voice command

Top 5 requested features among respondents:
1. Vehicle can notify driver after an accident whether the vehicle is or is not safe to drive.
2. Vehicle can scan itself following an accident to track maintenance issues to be addressed.
3. Vehicle can recommend a more fuel-efficient route for travel.
4. Vehicle automatically can take and store video or security footage to track any accidents or damage done.
5. Driver can review tire status, lifetime value, and recommendations on status and replacement of the vehicle.

“The connected car technology drivers are using today is primitive and owners can only be reactive. Drivers are using features that simply improve their daily experience in the car,” says Michael Deittrick, DMI’s senior vice president for digital strategy and chief digital officer. “Data from respondents tells us drivers crave features that are anticipatory and can contextually help them extract more value from their vehicle. The data shows we need to be forward thinking about bringing the outside world into the connected car.”

Consumer Wish List Categories

1. Safety
The top two of the ten most-desired future features have safety implications. For instance, 79% of respondents said they would like to see vehicles that can complete a full scan after an accident to determine if the vehicle is safe to drive.

2. Time Savings
Survey takers said they want features to help save time while driving. For example, 62% of respondents expressed a desire for items as connecting to prepaid parking. Additionally, 60% of respondents said they would like the vehicle to convey alternate travel options, such as walking distance, bus stops or subway routes.

3. Maintenance
Almost three-quarters of respondents said they would like to see the vehicle keep them updated on such factors as tire status and lifetime value of the vehicle. They would also prefer recommendations on the replacement status of parts on the vehicle.

4. Cost Reduction
Drivers think tomorrow’s vehicles should help them save money on the road. An overwhelming three out of four drivers report they would like a connected vehicle feature that recommends a more fuel-efficient driving route.

5. Driving Experience
Respondents want tomorrow’s vehicles to deliver more personalized and enriching driving experiences. For example, 61% would like their vehicle to send driving suggestions based on based on weather, geography and time-of-day variables.

About the survey
DMI performed assessments on 2018 vehicles. Brands included Acura, Audi, BMW, Chevrolet, Toyota, Ford, Honda, Hyundai, Subaru, Jeep, Tesla and Mercedes-Benz. DMI assessed both in-vehicle and mobile experiences based on 44 use cases that comprise DMI’s Automotive Maturity Model. For each use case, DMI evaluated whether or not the use case was offered by the OEM, and if so, the quality of experience based on a single ease question (SEQ), on a scale of easy (1) to difficult (7).

The VE 810 was first released in the 80's. It had an internal controller and a front control panel which was later updated with an LCD screen. Fast forward to today and the advancements of the touch screen display, it was not surprising that Vision would incorporate one into their VE 810 S5 Small Engraver.

The popularity and advancements in touchscreens have made it very reliable and lowered its cost,” said Joe Ivanenok Vision Engraving & Routing System’s President. He goes on to say, “The VE 810 S5 and all our new Series 5 machines is a testament to Vision’s drive to offer the most technologically advance machines at an affordable price.”

The touchscreen is a highly intuitive user interface allowing for ease of navigation and precision control. It features an icon base display like most smart phones, allowing you to move the x, y, and z axis, change machine settings and more. It also has a measure feature which allows Vision’s “Measure Wizard,” found in their engraving software to easily locate the engraving area on your engraving projects.

The technology powering V-Touch adds an internal memory system, allowing you to save jobs directly on to the VE 810 S5 engraver. You’ll also be able to run these saved jobs without the need of computer.

Atlanta, GA, January 20, 2019 --(PR.com)-- Available as a one off assessment or regular monitoring, Cyber Check undertakes immediate screening and instantly provides a report detailing the company’s cyber risk exposure. The service is quick and easy to use and IT expertise is not necessary. The system is non-invasive, requiring only the company domain name and responses to a short set of questions in order to perform the cyber risk screening. The report, written in simple business language, is delivered in real time using the universal traffic light system, "red, amber, green," to demonstrate risk severity. Risk exposure and severity is immediately clear and the user can prioritise action to be taken.

Small and medium size businesses in the UK recognise the cyber-crime threat facing their business and want to be proactive in their cyber security. 43% of small and medium enterprises [SMEs] in the UK have experienced a cyber breach according to the Government’s 2018 Cyber Security Breaches Survey and 74% of management in SMEs say cyber security is a high priority. CRIF’s goal is to help make cyber risk management accessible to SMEs across all sectors and industries, placing screening at the heart of the business to support GDPR compliance and protect both the business and brand reputation.

The scale and sophistication of cyber-crime continues to grow and SMEs are a prime target for the highly organised criminal gangs operating in the field as they are seen to be resource limited and with less technically aware employees than larger enterprises.

Sara Costantini, Director at CRIF Decision Solutions said, “We wanted to give all small and medium businesses the ability to identify and understand their cyber risk. Cyber Check does this by removing the barrier of excessive consultancy costs and the need for specialist expertise. This product simply and cost effectively gives businesses the expert knowledge and alerts to manage their cyber risk.”

Paris, France, January 20, 2019 --(PR.com)-- GRAITEC, an international BIM, Fabrication and Design software developer for AEC, and Autodesk® Platinum Partner across Europe, is delighted to announce the acquisition of Opentree, a U.K based company that provides EDM solutions for the management of the entire document lifecycle of projects, and conforms to BIM standards and BS1192 workflows.

At a time when there is increasing industry complexity especially around BIM projects and delivery, the need to effectively manage internal W.I.P (Work in progress) project documentation from the outset is becoming increasingly important across all AEC sectors.

Practices and businesses with a further requirement to publish project data externally to a hosted environment are then often faced with the challenge of interfacing with multiple CDE (Common Data Environment) vendors, as the choice for construction and manufacturing professionals is vast, but with Opentree you can effectively manage all of your internal documentation and model information locally throughout the project lifecycle and then publish to the CDE of your (or the principal contractors) choice as and when a particular project dictates.

Francis Guillemard, GRAITEC President comments: “With Graitec’s recent acquisitions, coupled to the fact that we are an extremely large Autodesk partner, and a software developer in the BIM area. Our solutions in the BIM arena provide many ’000,000’s of models, documents and ancillary information, this acquisition will be pivotal in helping our customers with the day to day management of their project documentation from initial conception and tender, through to project delivery!"

Andrew Frank, OPENTREE Managing Director comments: “By joining Opentree and Graitec, our customers will further benefit from being owned by a company with a long history in design & collaboration, who have the skills and expertise to push Opentree even further into the market of W.I.P management, We see this a key strategy for all customers to manage this process better than they do today."

Steve Houlder, GRAITEC COO comments: “The BIM market and the BIM for Manufacturing market is growing at a rapid rate in many countries. One of the major difficulties faced by our customers at all levels from housing development through to capital projects, is the management of data from project conception to the start of the collaboration phase, ensuring data consistency and adherence to standards being one of the most important topics. With Opentree we can address this growing issue for many of our customers, aligning, Graitec and Autodesk technologies."

Graitec will now offer Data Management and W.I.P management to all their customers who have been trying to solve the problem by various means for a long time. By helping customers to adhere to data standards, deliver consistency, conform to both BS1192 and the upcoming ISO19650 BIM standards, Graitec are at the forefront of helping customers manage their data and projects effectively enabling them to achieve time and cost savings, as well as improving internal and external data quality processes.

About GRAITEC
Founded in 1986, GRAITEC is an international Autodesk Partner across Europe, North America and Russia including an Autodesk Developer Partner, delivering high-performance BIM Simulation and Fabrication solutions. Operating throughout 45 offices across 11 countries worldwide, GRAITEC goals is to offer productivity, efficiency and performance solutions and consulting to its customers in the BIM arena. With 450 employees amongst which there are 200 BIM consultants, GRAITEC is an innovation focused company whose products are used by more than 100,000 construction professionals worldwide.

For more information, please visit www.graitec.com

About Opentree
The company was established in 1992 as tsaADVET Ltd selling networked PC based CAD solutions from Intergraph, Bentley and Autodesk. The focus was on large engineering companies who had hundreds of thousands of drawings to control across very large facilities. We introduced a third party Electronic Document Management Software (EDMS) system (Falcon/DMS) which we sold and supported to enable the tight management of the CAD data. This included management of CAD Reference/XRef files which are vital to ensure data integrity of the drawings.

As the business continued to grow, we soon realised that the EDMS product was not meeting all of our customers’ needs. So in 2000, we developed our own EDMS, CAB-i-NET (now Cabinet).

Since it was first adopted by Tata Steel (formerly British Steel) and Siemens (formerly Westinghouse Rail Systems) in 2003, we’ve never looked back. Thanks to our partnership approach with various multinational blue chip companies, Cabinet evolved to manage all forms of office documents as well as CAD drawings.

Following a decade of success, a management buyout enabled the company to strategically plan for its future growth. This resulted in the opening of a dedicated development office in Sheffield, followed by a complete rebrand to Opentree in 2014.

Unionville, PA, January 22, 2019 --(PR.com)-- Best of the Best in Travel Journalism Chosen

An active travel article featuring Valencia, Spain in Healthy Aging® Magazine, targeting the active 45-year-old-plus audience, has been honored by a silver award in the 2018 NATJA Travel Media Awards Competition. The article, written by Carolyn Worthington and David Chauner, claimed the second place award in the online publication category for 60+ travel for an article that featured active travel to Spain: “Valencia Region: The Orchard of Spain is Ripe for Active Travelers.” https://healthyaging.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/Valencia-Region-for-Active-Travelers.pdf

The North American Travel Journalists Association (NATJA) announced the winners of the annual NATJA Travel Media Awards Competition last week in California. Winners were selected from categories comprised of publications, travel journalists and photographers, and top destination marketing associations.

The competition, now in its 27th year, honors the “best of the best” in travel media.

“We are thrilled and honored to receive this award and to be included in such a stellar group of travel professionals,” says Carolyn Worthington, publisher of Healthy Aging®. “The 60+ traveler is becoming more vibrant every day as growing numbers of active adults seek enriching and interesting travel experiences and are not content to just go from meal to meal on vacation.”

The honored article features the region of Valencia, Spain with the active adult, specifically Gen-Xers and baby boomers, in mind.

“When people think of Valencia, they think of the city of Valencia, Spain,” Worthington said. “The approach of the article was to share insider tips on what to do in the region beyond the obvious. We included cooking classes, wine tastings, and, most unique of all, how to using a major cycling stage race such as La Vuelta d’Espana, as a focal point for a vacation.”

Other publications winning awards included The New York Times, Toronto Star, Air Canada En Route and AAA magazines. National Geographic Traveler was selected as the top travel magazine for a second year in a row.

The awards will be presented at the inaugural NATJA Awards Dinner on Friday, February 15, 2019 at the City Club in downtown Los Angeles. “The winners are a microcosm of the talent and journalistic excellence that encapsulates our industry leading members,” said Helen Hernandez, CEO, NATJA.

One first place (Gold) winner is chosen in each of the categories along with 2nd (Silver), 3rd place (Bronze) and Honorable Mentions. Works from September 2017 through August 2018 were eligible for an award or honor.

Other winners in the online publication 60+ category included articles published in Nomad Magazine and the Huffington Post.

Founded in 1991, NATJA is a travel journalism industry leader that fosters high quality journalism.

Bellingham, WA, January 22, 2019 --(PR.com)-- GEAR AID is expanding its line of Adventure Tools with the launch of four new products: Camp Carabiner, Camp Line Kit, Taut Line Kit, and Carabiner Light Kit. Designed in-house, these unique tools are interchangeable and easy to use – enhancing the outdoor experience for adventurers of all ages. The suggested retail price ranges from $11-$30.

With the Camp Carabiner, quickly suspend gear with knot-free ease. Featuring GEAR AID’s signature twist-and-clip design, attaching backpacks, gravity filters, lanterns, and other gear securely on a paracord has never been easier. Just thread cord and twist. Once anchored, it won’t slip off. Each carabiner swivels 360° and can hold up to 25 lbs. For a complete system, use the Camp Line Kit, which includes two Camp Carabiners, 30 ft. of reflective 550 Paracord, and two Line Tensioners. If carabiners are unnecessary, use the Taut Line Kit to make a clothesline in no time and dry towels, life jackets, wetsuits or booties. This kit includes the GEAR AID 50 ft. reflective 550 Paracord and four Line Tensioners. The innovative Line Tensioners feature numbered slots, so a simple figure 8 knot is all that’s needed to hang a taut line.

For adventurers that are active at night, GEAR AID offers the Carabiner Light Kit. Illuminate the campsite, trail or sidewalk with this multipurpose and rechargeable LED light. Use it as a mini lantern, flashlight, signal or nightlight. An included webbing adapter easily mounts the light on backpack straps for lighting on the go. The light is detachable from the carabiner, so when lighting is no longer required it can be used as the Camp Carabiner to simply hang gear.

GEAR AID’s growing line of Adventure Tools are a departure from its historical care and repair products, however the company continues to offer simple solutions that make the outdoor experience better. “In launching these new products, we addressed our goal to minimize plastic in our packaging, while utilizing new processes and techniques to improve sustainability,” says Sean Fields, VP of Brand. “This project began by exploring the best way to attach outdoor equipment to ropes and webbing, in order to help organize and manage gear,” adds Ray Klein, design director. All four products will be available in select stores by spring 2019 and online at gearaid.com.

About GEAR AID
GEAR AID champions renewal in the lives of those who play and work outside. We empower people to make gear last longer by designing reliable camp tools and products that fix and restore gear and improve the outdoor experience.
