Fine Art Investment Firm ArteQuesta Proves Tech Isn’t Just for Silicon Valley

software for art collectors

MILL VALLEY, Calif., Oct. 12, 2015 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- ArteQuesta announces its new software for art collectors, the Art Portfolio Management System. "From a collector's standpoint, our software offers simplicity for managing a collection without cutting corners or lowering standards," comments Rayah Levy, ArteQuesta's Founder and Director.

"This software allows our clients to open their portfolio with us and track the performance of their art, similar to other financial assets. It's also available to collectors who aren't our direct clients because we recognize the importance of this tool in the global market."

Pointing to Deloitte's latest Art & Finance Report, Levy believes there will be an increase in demand for professional wealth management services in relation to art and art collections.

"In 2014, 76 percent of art purchases were made for the art's potential as an investment. The 2015 statistics show this percentage will grow. Increasingly, art professionals (76 percent) and art collectors (62 percent) believe art and collectibles should be integrated into wealth management offerings, which are opening new areas in an untapped market.

"Although those within the art industry have been welcoming this trend with excitement, the market itself has been slow in reacting to demands the influx of new investors bring, resulting in the creation of the Portfolio Management System."

As part of its mission, ArteQuesta hopes to dispel the myth that art investment is the sole reserve of the ultra-wealthy. Levy believes that making all aspects of the process user friendly is essential to catering to the ever-growing market.

"We want people to know you don't need to spend large sums of money to make a good investment in art. Though some of our artwork is at higher values, we have a number of artworks that are viable investments for median-level incomes.

"Most people aren't aware of how to begin investing in art and we want to change that. This is why the timing of our software is vital. Just as we're making the art world more accessible to the masses, we're also making it easier to navigate by directly removing the most common and significant hurdles - provenance and verification of ownership."

Levy states, "The Portfolio Management System was designed with provenance and verification in mind specifically because ArteQuesta's most personal mission is to preserve Jewish and Israeli Art. In almost all cases in which we've identified and began the process of rescue or recovery, proving authenticity and ownership have been most difficult. As we look to the future with our software, there is unlimited potential for investors, collectors, museums and financial institutions to manage collections of any size, with updated and verifiable certificates of authenticity with ease. Adding the extra layer of tracking certificates of authenticity and ownership on the Blockchain, which will soon be incorporated in our system, will bring additional security to art purchases managed in the Portfolio Management System."

Civic Resource Group International First Government Technology Provider to Bring Mobile Augmented Reality Product into Public Sector

CivicAR

LOS ANGELES, Calif., June 30, 2015 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Civic Resource Group Int'l (CRGI) today announced the worldwide release of CivicAR(TM) - the first Mobile Augmented Reality (AR) solution for the public sector. The new product will enable governments and public sector agencies to deliver information and services directly to citizens and communities in a highly contextual and easy to use mobile environment.

CRGI developed CivicAR(TM) using patented technology with the goal of making Augmented Reality applicable for practical, business-specific uses in the civic sector. The robust CivicAR(TM) platform includes advanced Visual Search allowing users to easily scan city assets (bus stops, subway stations, restaurants, signs, trees, etc.) with their mobile devices for digital information. The Virtual Teleportation feature enables citizens/visitors to explore points of interests, facilities and distant locations with 360 views, all remotely. The Directional Search feature allows users to learn about what's around them simply by pointing their mobile device, and integrated localization/geolocation features map users and content precisely within their environment, providing valuable user analytics.

CRGI is making Augmented Reality - only recently considered "futuristic" - directly relevant and applicable in virtually any Smart Sector verticals such as government services, transportation, tourism, economic development, environment, utilities, healthcare and education among others.

"I'll be the first one to admit that the public sector, which includes government, insurance agencies, travel, tourism, healthcare and education was not the first place I looked for early adoption of augmented reality solutions," observed Matt Margolis, Chief Analyst of Wall Street Forensics after having researched the Company and its competition. "CRGI is helping advance the public sector well into the future and on the forefront of the digital age. AR for the public sector will connect residents, businesses and officials.

Eye Tracking Technologies Create Extraordinary Market Opportunities in Gaming, Medicine, Market Research, Automotive and More

Eye tracking

NEW YORK, N.Y., June 26, 2015 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Thintri, Inc. (www.thintri.com) has announced a new market study that predicts explosive growth in markets for eye tracking. According to the report, "Market Opportunities in Eye Tracking, 2015," eye tracking is penetrating markets as diverse as market and advertising research, medical and even psychiatric diagnosis, website and online content development, automotive safety systems, gaming, virtual/augmented reality, piloting drones and a host of others. Some of these applications will undergo explosive growth, leading to billion-dollar markets within a decade.

Eye tracking, the following and recording of a person's gaze as it moves from one point to another, has long been used as a means for severely disabled people, such as quadriplegics, to access technology by controlling computers and other devices with eye movement. Because of the stringent reliability and accuracy requirements involved, such systems have been costly, limiting the use of such tools in new applications.

Today, however, the advent of less expensive, less bulky and non-invasive systems is bringing eye tracking to a wide range of entirely new applications, from gaming to medicine and automotive safety. Already, eye tracking is used to control smartphones and detect fatigue and sleepiness in operators of heavy machinery. Web-based platforms combined with common webcams used for eye tracking will allow even the smallest companies to conduct global market and advertising research studies with hundreds of participants spread all over the world, all for just a tiny cost.

"Eye tracking is a fairly mature technology. Most major technical issues have been resolved and development efforts are mainly focused on development of new applications. All that is standing in the way of explosive market growth is customer awareness and education," says J. Scott Moore, Ph.D., founder Thintri, Inc.

According to the Thintri study, most segments will undergo healthy growth while some markets are poised to reach billion-dollar levels within a decade. Promising markets like automotive, where the technology could save lives by alerting drivers who are distracted or drowsy, or gaming, where a first-person shooter could aim and fire with unprecedented speed and accuracy, could quickly gain millions of users.

Thintri's report, "Market Opportunities in Eye Tracking, 2015," projects extraordinary growth for eye tracking markets, in several cases exceeding a billion dollars per year within a decade. The remarkable versatility and utility of eye tracking leads to the conclusion that many promising applications of eye tracking have probably not yet even been investigated. More information can be found at http://www.thintri.com/eye-tracking-technology-report-2015.htm.

Weitz & Luxenberg to Probe Lenovo Superfish Malware Damage Claims

Toxic Tort

NEW YORK, N.Y., Feb. 24, 2015 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- A security expert's discovery last month that certain Lenovo laptop computers were shipped with well-concealed malware giving hackers easy access to users' most confidential information has led Weitz & Luxenberg P.C. to announce an investigation into potential legal claims against the hardware manufacturer and against the malware vendor, Superfish, the law firm today disclosed.

Weitz & Luxenberg said it plans to talk to as many Lenovo users as possible about their legal rights to compensation from both Lenovo and Superfish.

Weitz & Luxenberg said users of certain Lenovo laptops sold in the last five months could be harmed by the malware - a commercial product called VisualDiscovery - via "man-in-the-middle" attacks.

In such an attack, a hacker lurking on the Lenovo user's Wi-Fi network hijacks the laptop's internet browser to steal bank credentials, passwords and any other valuable data that might be stored on the laptop, the firm explained.

Hackers could also potentially use the laptop's own security key to certify imposter HTTPS websites - a practice known as "spoofing" - that masquerade as Bank of America, Google or any other secure destination on the Internet, Weitz & Luxenberg warned.

Superfish Creates Lenovo Super-Vulnerability:

According to a report in The New York Times published this week, Superfish's VisualDiscovery software could enable hackers to monitor and exploit everything a Lenovo user does while online.

"The tragedy is that Lenovo users have been led to believe the data they're storing on their laptops are safe and secure, when those data are anything but safe and secure," said Robin L. Greenwald, who heads Weitz & Luxenberg's Environmental, Toxic Tort & Consumer Protection Unit.

Security experts who have looked into this situation contend that only by fully wiping out the memory of a vulnerable Lenovo laptop and then installing a non-Lenovo version of Windows can a user be assured of closing the security hole created by the Superfish VisualDiscovery software.

Some computer experts said taking such a step may expose users to still more harm since fully erasing a computer's factory-installed memory and replacing it opens the door to potentially unforeseen performance glitches.

In the worst cases, these glitches can destabilize a system to the point that the user can no longer rely on it and may need to replace the entire machine, experts caution.

Slate Magazine called Lenovo's decision to pre-install the Superfish software a betrayal of its customers. Slate quoted one expert as saying he "cannot overstate how evil [Lenovo's action] is."

Weitz & Luxenberg points to other computer experts as saying that when Lenovo added the Superfish product it knew a significant security hole would be created, making the laptops easy prey for hackers.

Nine Lenovo Laptop Models Affected:

Affected are Lenovo G, U, Y, Z, S, Flex, MIIX, YOGA, and E series laptops sold between last September and this month, according to news reports.

Lenovo, the news reports continue, admits to having shipped those models with the Superfish product installed.

Slate asserts that Lenovo should have known about the problem as early as Jan. 21 when a user who discovered the vulnerability reported it to a Lenovo forum.

Greenwald said Lenovo since that time has failed to take appropriate steps to eliminate the problem.

Weitz & Luxenberg said harmed Lenovo users may be able to pursue legal action by claiming the consumer protections offered through various federal and state statutes, plus civil law.

"Consumers who have been harmed have a right to be fully compensated for their injuries," said Greenwald. "We intend to help see that justice is done for them."

About Weitz & Luxenberg:

Weitz & Luxenberg P.C. is among the nation's leading and most readily recognized personal injury law firms. Weitz & Luxenberg's numerous litigation areas include: mesothelioma, defective medicine and devices, environmental pollutants, consumer protection, accidents, personal injury, and medical malpractice.

TimeForge exhibits ground-breaking comprehensive retail labor management platform utilizing business intelligence and beacon technologies at NRF 2015 tradeshow

Labor Management

NEW YORK CITY, N.Y., Jan. 12, 2015 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- TimeForge is presenting its vision for a comprehensive retail labor management platform, which will be showcased at the National Retail Federation (NRF) 2015 trade show. The TimeForge product line highlights a range of innovative solutions suited for every retail environment, from the retail store front to the back of a restaurant kitchen.

TimeForge products will be presented alongside Samsung Electronics America and will be showcased in the Samsung booth, #600, and in the Star booth, booth #3925, at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center at the 2015 NRF show, which takes place January 11-14.

"TimeForge is excited about the future of retail and technology, and we see a lot of opportunity for restaurants and retailers. Beacons and other new technologies will continue to unearth new possibilities in sales and labor management, while existing technology can be improved to provide deeper insights into core business practices," said Anthony Presley, President of TimeForge. "Our solutions enable retailers to improve profitability at their stores, and we continue to improve upon our product line based on customer feedback."

PlaceForge and Asset Tracking:
Debuted at the Retail Solutions Providers Association (RSPA) show, PlaceForge is a unique system designed to track staff members and other key assets such as shopping carts and handheld computers. Beacons, similar to the iBeacon protocol supported by Apple, are deployed on the badges of staff members and on shopping carts, and the movements of the beacons are tracked throughout a store.

This ground-breaking product integrates with real-time sales data from more than 20 Point of Sale (PoS) systems, and could be used to identify hot and cold areas of a store, locate loss leaders, justify product layout modifications, and quickly alert management of potential problems on the sales floor.

Business Intelligence and Demand Forecasting:
Also on display at the NRF show is TimeForge's BI and demand forecasting modules. These tools are designed from the ground up to import POS sales information and forecast future sales and inventory needs on a transactional basis. The Business Intelligence software allows managers and IT professionals to build role-based dashboards with item, category, and cashier level analysis to identify trends and changes on the sales floor.

Attendance and Time Clocks:
TimeForge continues to expand their time clocks with a new offering from Star. TimeForge recently debuted the Star AsuraCPRNT time clock - an innovative touch screen timeclock product with an integrated printing solution for printing punch hours, schedules, and real-time reports. The self-service kiosk allows staff members to quickly clock in or out, request time off, swap shifts, and print out upcoming schedules. Managers can use the solution to instantly view labor and sales data directly on the device or on the TimeForge mobile platform.

Staff Scheduling Done Right:
TimeForge will also be displaying its award winning scheduling software. The retail staff scheduling software brings together employee self-service, the ability to request time off, and staff member's scheduling preferences from the web or mobile app, and combines staff member data with business metrics for efficient schedules. Business metrics commonly include minimum and maximum staffing requirements, sales growth or stagnation, real-time sales data, Affordable Care Act (ACA) needs, etc. By combining this data into an easy-to-use format for retail managers, TimeForge allows managers to convey schedule changes automatically to staff, post schedules, and enforce labor requirements.

About TimeForge:
TimeForge helps businesses in the hospitality, restaurant, retail, and grocery industries manage labor, build schedules, and run profitably while reducing turnover and improving operations. Used by businesses throughout the world, TimeForge is designed from the ground-up to simplify the complicated process of labor management.
