New solutions


In addition, the USB Type-C termi- nal delivers up to 70 Watt for conve- niently charging small desktop PCs and laptops, eliminating the need for an additional power supply unit. The monitor comes with a versatile stand with a wide adjustment range, featur- ing height adjustment, tilt, and swivel. Uses can also rotate the screen to por- trait mode, making readingwebpages and long text documents more pleas- ant.


Printing out work-related documents is becoming less common due to the increase in home offices, telecommut- ing and stricter security measures. To make reading digital documents more comfortable, Paper Mode reduces the amount of blue light emitted by the monitor, helping to prevent eye fa- tigue. When used in conjunction with the monitor’s Auto EcoView dimming function, blue light is reduced by as much as 80%.


The EV2480 implements a virtually frameless design for a minimalistic aesthetic. In addition to sleek black, the cabinet is available in white for a colour option that keeps the workspace feeling bright. Furthermore, EIZO pro- vides cables to match the cabinet for full colour coordination.


Additional Features


• Eye care functions, including flick- er-free display and dimming range from 1 cd/m2


• No paint or harmful chemicals used in cabinet or stand


• Eco-friendly custom packing


• Five-year warranty and six-month no bright pixel guarantee Availability


The FlexScan EV2480 will begin shipping in January 2021. The date of availability varies by country.


New level of accuracy in facial recognition


OMRON Electronic Components Eu- rope has announced a new OKAO Vision face recognition package, of- fering highly accurate deep-learning face recognition. Developers are able to deploy OKAO Vision flexibly on their own choice of embedded hardware platform.


The new deep learning libraries of OKAO Vision Face Recognition V9.0 address applications that require a high degree of confidence under vari- ous conditions including poor lighting and when the face is at various angles relative to the detector. These include security and access control, time and attendance monitoring, login/wake- up systems, and camera autofocus/ auto-exposure control. An important potential application is monitoring the attendance at face-face and online meetings, facilitating contact tracing


and verifying actual attendance. Auto- motive applications include driver rec- ognition to manage features such as seat adjustment.


The new face-recognition libraries achieve excellent evaluation results with various skin tones and face siz- es, with extremely low error rate down to image size as small as 40 pixels. Benchmark testing with Intel and Arm processors has demonstrated that OKAO Vision Face Recognition V9.0 maintains exceptionally fast recogni- tion times despite the enhanced ac- curacy, ensuring that users in access control applications for example will be barely conscious of the need to wait for validation of their identity. The complete OKAO Vision Face Rec- ognition V9.0 package contains mod- ular libraries that provide a variety of sensing capabilities including expres-


sion estimation, age and gender esti- mation, and photographic image beau- tification including red-eye reduction, facial shaping, eye enlargement, and blemish removal. Users can combine various modules’ functionalities to add value to their applications. Gabriele Fulco, European Product Marketing Manager Sensors at OM- RON Electronic Components Europe added, “In addition to boosting rec- ognition accuracy with deep learning, we are making OKAO Vision available as a set of software libraries ready to integrate with Linux, Windows®, and iOS operating systems. This lets users leverage the extensive functionalities of OMRON’s machine-vision package in their own embedded systems run- ning on custom hardware. Off-the- shelf libraries are already available for various platforms.”
