Olea Kiosks Unveils its Chicago Healthcare Check-In Kiosk: Enhancing Patient Experience with ADA-Compliant Design

LOS ANGELES, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- Olea Kiosks®, Inc. is excited to announce the launch of its latest advancement in healthcare technology, the Chicago Healthcare Check-In Kiosk. This innovative and inclusive solution offers a sleek, modern ADA-compliant design, elevating the user experience for all.

One of the standout features of the Chicago is its commitment to accessibility. This new design includes an offset monitor to provide easier wheelchair access and a tilt bracket to assist people of all heights. For those with low vision, the unit includes the thoughtful integration of an Audio Nav system and a keyboard to improve the user experience.

"This new design is the result of conversations with many healthcare companies that are all trying to figure out how to implement self-service properly. We wanted to ensure it addressed ADA, but not just for the sake of checking boxes, but making it user-friendly and comfortable for all users," explained Frank Olea, CEO.

"We also wanted to offer facial recognition as part of the standard product because that requirement is coming soon, so we incorporated the camera and the tilt bracket to ensure the picture can be taken properly regardless of height. You're juggling HIPPA and several requirements into one design so we're proud to deliver a kiosk that is better designed and includes more features and is better value than what's on the market today," added Olea.

The Chicago is available in three form factors: a Height-Adjustable, Freestanding and Desktop.

By streamlining the check-in process, healthcare providers can reduce wait times, optimize staff efficiency, and ultimately enhance patient satisfaction.

SecuGen, TechMag, and Futura Partner Up to Help Modernize and Secure Brazilian Civil Police Procedures

SANTA CLARA, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- SecuGen Corporation, a leading provider of fingerprint biometric technology, announced a strategic partnership with Brazilian reseller partner TechMag and technological solutions developer Futura to help the Civil Police of Mato Grosso to authenticate and secure documentation produced during police inquiry processes.

Futura has developed a software solution that integrates with SecuGen's Hamster Pro 20 biometric scanning hardware, sourced by TechMag. This collaborative effort enables the police department to:

* Digitize and modernize their documentation workflows by streamlining operations, eliminating manual data entry, and improving efficiency.

* Increase security and authenticity of electronic documents by introducing robust security features, including fingerprint biometrics, to safeguard sensitive information and ensure document authenticity.

* Reduce costs, save resources, and improve processing time by eliminating paper-based processes and automating tasks.

"We are pleased to partner with Futura and TechMag to deliver this transformative solution for the Mato Grosso police department," said Jeff Brown, SecuGen's Vice President of Sales. "This solution significantly reduces operational costs for the Civil Police, estimated to be over USD 190K per year. This also allows the police to focus on their core functions with greater efficiency."

SecuGen Hamster Pro 20 scanners offer FBI-certified technology, ensuring high-quality fingerprint capture. With these scanners, the Mato Grosso Civil Police was able to introduce the digital fingerprint as an electronic signature for all documents produced during police procedures.

In addition to increasing the authenticity of documents, this approach also significantly improved operational efficiency. Now, fingerprint signatures of all parties involved in police procedures, including third parties, victims, interrogated individuals, and witnesses, can be electronically collected, reducing processing time and ensuring a robust chain of custody.

The partnership between Futura, TechMag, and SecuGen demonstrates how the application of innovative technologies can transform and modernize traditional processes, bringing tangible benefits in terms of security, efficiency, and resource savings.

Olea Kiosks Unveils Revolutionary Driver Check-In Kiosk to Transform Logistics Operations

LOS ANGELES, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- Olea Kiosks® is proud to announce the launch of its latest innovation in kiosk technology, the Tampa Driver Check-In Kiosk. This new and innovative solution was designed to transform the way logistics companies manage driver arrivals and departures.

Traditionally, driver check-ins involve time-consuming manual entries, resulting in long lines and increased wait times. These inefficiencies lead to operational delays, increased costs, and driver dissatisfaction. The Tampa Driver Check-In Kiosk offers a smarter, faster, and more accurate solution, significantly reducing check-in times and administrative overhead.

The kiosk automates data entry by scanning identification documents like driver's licenses and cargo manifests to capture and store data securely in real-time. With automated identity verification and document validation, the system ensures that only authorized personnel gain access to the facility. Not only does the kiosk speed up check-in, but it also adds enhanced security without relying on a human resource.

The inclusion of a receipt printer provides immediate, tangible confirmation of check-in details, including time stamps and route confirmations, enriching accountability and communication.

Additional optional peripherals such as intercoms, HD web cameras, barcode scanners, RFID readers, and I/O controls for gate access can be added to further improve security.

For more information on the Tampa Kiosk: https://www.olea.com/product/tampa-kiosk/

"After discussions with several logistics organizations and learning that it's not uncommon for entire truckloads to go missing, this robust, yet simple design provides tremendous value for this market," explained Frank Olea, CEO. "In addition, the ability to deploy in-lane not only helps speed up the check-in process even further but it also helps track loads and optimize yard space while improving driver safety," added Olea.

A first-customer deployment is expected to be operational by the end of June.

Kiosk Machine Industry June 2024: Self Service Kiosk Machine – InfoComm Preview and Acrelec Feature

WESTMINSTER, Colo. /ScoopCloud/ -- Kiosk Manufacturer Association News: See our Preview of InfoComm 2024 - See 22Miles, Peerless-AV, LG and Panasonic to name some. Biggest AV show of the year (along with ISE in Barcelona). We work with AVIXA as a main partner of ours.

In the restaurant and drive thru space we did a response report on the latest WW market report by Datos. Usually data reports are terrible but RBR does pretty good. See feature.

FEATURE:

Our latest Gold sponsor is Acrelec. Interesting facts are Acrelec has over 30,000 software licenses (many at McDonald's I hazard the guess). Interesting too is the greater reliance on self order kiosks in the French market. In the US you might see 6 kiosks (3 double-sided) whereas in France the standard is closer to 10 to 15. Datos list Acrelec as worldwide leader.

It's not surprising either to see Acrelec involved with Self Checkout (see Check out at Walmart NOT going away). Acrelec is owned by Glory, a financial giant in retail. Be sure and read our complete writeup - https://kioskindustry.org/mcdonalds-kiosk-acrelec/.

Designed with user convenience and global accessibility in mind, the Cellular 2 Device seamlessly combines a sleek design with comprehensive functionality, offering a dependable tool for individuals and professionals in Family Law, Addiction Recovery, and Workplace Compliance.

With its built-in cellular module, the device ensures users can submit tests from anywhere in the world, connecting them to a network of global LTE coverage.

Enhanced by a device leveling feature that guides users to hold the device in a way that is optimal for built-in facial recognition, the Cellular 2 Device ensures an efficient and smooth user experience.

Testimonials from Cellular 2 Users

"I like the fact that I do not have to hold my cell phone up while taking my test. Makes everything much easier and user friendly."

"The Cellular 2 Device is wonderfully portable."

"It's much easier for travel."

"Thankfully, the device will store tests. Otherwise, I would be dead in the water."

"It is super easy to use... Been using it for a few weeks and only charged it once."

Recognition from Industry Professionals

The functionality and design of Soberlink's devices have garnered positive feedback from various sectors.

Nicola Donaldson, Certified Supervised Counselor, has praised the device, mentioning how, "Soberlink just ticked all the boxes in terms of convenience, portability, and user friendliness. We were really impressed with just how easy it all is."

Family Law professional Sean Wirth also recognizes the value of Soberlink, stating, "I trust [Soberlink] because it's an all-in-one device. You have the facial recognition built-in to a reliable breathalyzer device with real-time results. It just provides a great product for Family Law practitioners and clients."

Introducing The Boulder Kiosk from Olea: A New Era for Outdoor Solutions

LOS ANGELES, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- Olea Kiosks®, a visionary provider of self-service kiosk solutions, today announced its latest design, the Boulder Outdoor Kiosk. This new and innovative solution was created to address the growing number of outdoor self-service use cases such as food and beverage ordering, ticketing, parking, and EV charging payments.

The Boulder kiosk is highly modular and made to hold different configurations of payment terminals, printers, scanners, and cameras. It's offered in both free-standing and wall-mounted configurations, in different colors, and with custom vinyl branding.

Outdoor kiosks are inherently difficult to build, so few standard options exist for outdoor venues looking to leverage self-service business models. The Boulder was built to address this gap in the market. It's equipped with a 22-inch PCAP multi-touch touchscreen and sunlight readable display. The kiosk supports Windows, Android, and Linux applications, and with Olea's network of software partners is compatible with most POS Software Systems.

"We're really excited about the Boulder because the market was asking for a cost-effective, quality outdoor product and this model is perfect," explained Frank Olea, CEO. "We've also designed a dual-sided option to maximize footprint and to deliver even greater value," added Olea.

The Boulder's first deployment will be live soon in an EV charging application. The Boulder kiosk will be on display at the National Restaurant Association Show in Chicago, May 18 to 21, 2024.

Matrix Advises on the Sale of Shape LLC

RICHMOND, Va. /ScoopCloud/ -- Matrix Capital Markets Group, Inc. ("Matrix"), a leading, independent investment bank, is pleased to announce the sale of Shape LLC ("Shape" or the "Company") to an undisclosed buyer. Prior to the sale, Shape was owned by funds managed by Gen Cap America, Inc. ("Gen Cap"), a private investment firm headquartered in Nashville, Tennessee.

For over half a century, Shape has operated as the premier manufacturer and designer of custom electrical transformer equipment, with its products utilized to regulate output current and ensure constant power across multiple end-uses. From its 40,000 square foot facility in Addison, Illinois, the Company supports the mission-critical needs of its international customer base. Shape's engineers and management team possess over a century of collective experience and were the architects of the ferroresonant transformer, a power supply that uses nonlinear magnetic properties and a resonant circuit to provide a stable output. This technology is particularly applicable to airport lighting, semiconductors, power supplies, and ultraviolet curing. Shape has become an integral piece of its customers' supply chains, as evidenced by numerous decades-long relationships. Following the transaction, all three of Shape's management-owners, Greg Babecki (CEO), Doug Hickey (COO), and David Lanes (CFO), will retain all existing day-to-day responsibilities.

Regarding the transaction, Mr. Babecki commented, "We are excited to have found a partner that both appreciates and complements our Company's unique offerings. We believe there are numerous benefits to this acquisition for our valued employees, customers, and vendors." He added, "We are grateful for Gen Cap's stewardship and partnership over the past nine years and are thrilled for what the next chapter alongside our new partners will bring us."

Matrix provided merger and acquisition advisory services to Gen Cap and Shape, which included valuation advisory, marketing the business through a confidential, structured sale process, and negotiation of the transaction. The transaction was managed by William O'Flaherty, Managing Director; David Shoulders, Managing Director; and Matt Oldhouser, CPA, Vice President.

Regarding Matrix's services, Gen Cap Director, James Byrd added, "The Matrix team took a thoughtful and hands-on approach to all aspects of the transaction. At every juncture, they provided us with sound explanations underlying their advice. We believe we achieved the optimal outcome based on their experience and counsel."

"It was a pleasure to represent Gen Cap on another divestiture from their portfolio. This is yet another example of a successful investment by their talented team," Mr. O'Flaherty noted. "Shape is a fantastic business managed by exceptional people. I have no doubt that Greg, Doug, and Dave will find success alongside their new partners."

Concrete Sawing & Drilling Safety Week Returns Jan. 29-Feb. 2, 2024

MAUMEE, Ohio /ScoopCloud/ -- Ground Penetrating Radar Systems (GPRS), the country's largest infrastructure visualization company, has announced that Concrete Sawing & Drilling Safety Week 2024 will run January 29 - February 2.

Since 2018, GPRS has sponsored this safety initiative to provide free training to construction crews across the country, helping them mitigate the risk of silicosis and the other dangers of cutting or coring concrete.

During CSDSW, GPRS safety professionals travel the country providing safety talks - along with breakfast or lunch - to construction crews of all sizes.

To date, GPRS has educated over 20,000 construction professionals through this annual program. In 2023, over 150 companies proved their dedication to the safety of their workers by hosting CSDSW talks on their job sites.

"CSDSW is an amazing event due to its ability to bring education directly to the job site and the workers that need it most," said GPRS Western U.S. Sales Director Dave Mulcahey. "Silica dust exposure, post-tension cables, electrical shock, and so many other dangers associated with cutting and coring are serious issues that cause injuries and fatalities. CSDSW allows workers to understand the issues, but also prepares them with how to avoid those dangers and go home safely at the end of every day."

Silicosis will be a focus of this year's CSDSW presentations.

This incurable, progressive lung disease is the result of years of inhaling Respirable Crystalline Silica (RCS), which is dispersed into the air whenever concrete is penetrated. Workers without proper protective equipment can inhale RCS, which can lie dormant in their respiratory systems for up to ten years before silicosis symptoms arise.

According to Environmental Health Insights, there are potentially 2,500-5,000 undiagnosed cases of silicosis annually.

In the past, minimum surveillance requirements on the job site meant that many silicosis cases were not reported or diagnosed. In 2023, the Occupational Health and Safety Administration (OSHA) enacted enhanced enforcement measures designed to limit the amount of RCS workers are exposed to, as well as how employers are required to report illnesses and injuries, including silicosis.

Exposure to crystalline silica is also directly correlated to increases in the risk of developing lung cancer, kidney disease, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, lung infections, and more, which is why OSHA issued enhanced enforcement measures regarding RSC exposure earlier this year.

CSDSW attendees will learn how to protect themselves and their coworkers from silicosis, concrete saw kickbacks, pinchpoints, and more.

Olea Kiosks Introduces Redesign of Indoor and Outdoor Geneva Kiosk

LOS ANGELES, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- Olea Kiosks®, a visionary provider of self-service kiosk solutions, announced a redesign of its popular Geneva kiosk as it debuts this new model at International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions (IAPPA) in Orlando November 14 to 17, 2023.

Olea's Geneva kiosk was designed for high volume amusement parks and attractions. It has now been upgraded to provide even more enclosure space for additional peripherals in a modular fashion. The re-design includes improved interior management for power supplies, cabling and networking gear, and adjustable shelves to assist with peripheral placement.

"Despite the popularity of the Geneva kiosk, we decided we could deliver even greater kiosk value with a redesign. Customers love the aesthetics, and we didn't want to change that part, but we wanted to make the peripheral cavity more flexible and convenient," explained Frank Olea, CEO.

"When we originally introduced Geneva, we designed an Indoor and Outdoor product that are essentially the same and we've been able to maintain that consistency. Adjusting the angles allowed us to deliver more enclosure space for more devices like printers, or even bill and coin acceptors or recyclers. With an improved locking system, we've also added an extra layer of protection against vandalism," added Olea.

The new Geneva Kiosk will be at International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions (IAPPA) in Orlando, November 14 to 17, 2023 in the Kiosk Manufacturer Association Booth 6137.

Olea will also have various kiosk models throughout IAPPA in the following booths:

* Centaman - Booth 4650

* Connect&Go - Booth 2036

* PDC/Brady - Booth 3865

* VivaTicket - Booth 5100

GPRS Launches New Safety Initiative to Address Aging Water, Wastewater Infrastructure

MAUMEE, Ohio /ScoopCloud/ -- Ground Penetrating Radar Systems, LLC (GPRS) has announced a new safety initiative designed to help municipalities and facilities regain control of their water, sewer, and stormwater infrastructure.

Water & Sewer Damage Awareness Week (WSDAW) will run October 23-27, 2023. GPRS water safety professionals will spend the week traveling the country to give free WSDAW safety presentations to government officials, facility managers, and other individuals and entities in charge of water and wastewater systems.

Additional safety information will also be shared throughout the week on both the GPRS and WSDAW LinkedIn pages.

GPRS' Senior Vice President of Marketing and SiteMap(®) Product Executive, Jason Schaff, explained that WSDAW is designed to help these groups take back control of their water and wastewater systems:

* Six billion gallons of water are lost daily in the U.S. due to defective subsurface water infrastructure. This is referred to as non-revenue water (NRW) and $2 billion of it trickles away into the soil or waterways each year

* 70,000 sanitary sewer overflows occur annually in the U.S.

* The average sewer pipe in the U.S. is 45 years old and at 81% capacity

* The United States' infrastructure scored a C- on the 2021 American Society of Civil Engineers Report Card

"Infrastructure in America is in bad shape," Schaff said. "Utility infrastructure and specifically sewer infrastructure is in bad shape. Water is becoming scarcer. WSDAW is positioned to help address some of these issues with simple and practical solutions."

He continued, "Money is literally leaking out of our pipes every day. There are some great, proactive approaches that WSDAW will bring to light - not only saving money, but increasing safety and decreasing project delays."

Olea Kiosks Launches its HYPERMODULAR Kiosk Technology

LOS ANGELES, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- Olea Kiosks(R), the fastest growing provider of self-service kiosk solutions, has announced its new HYPERMODULAR(TM) kiosk technology which allows for complex kiosk configurations to be piloted and in-service much faster than a custom designed product.

Olea's HYPERMODULAR(TM) technology directly addresses the growing challenge of configuring kiosks with complex access control peripherals so governments, businesses, and organizations can tackle their most pressing needs for automation and to expedite time to market.

While the product is targeted at firms requiring access control solutions, other complex kiosk use cases will benefit from this platform. It's designed to accommodate a host of self-service peripherals including barcode scanners, RFID readers, iris scanners, fingerprint readers and many more.

"We want to help our customers reduce the time and money spent on kiosk design and engineering services, so we developed the HYPERMODULAR to address that challenge," explained Frank Olea, CEO.

"This innovative platform is designed to address common complex requirements with a faster time-to-market and the ability to iterate quickly. In the past, kiosk projects required large upfront CAPEX, complex development and productization and could take 6 months to get to a prototype," added Olea.

With HYPERMODULAR(TM), Olea has developed a hardware partnership ecosystem where several common components are pre-tested. This is what facilitates faster deployment, improved support and enhanced innovation.

New Smart Watch For Seniors with Fall Detection from Medical Care Alert

NORTHVILLE, Mich. /ScoopCloud/ -- Seniors have a new way to stay safe with the new SmartWatch PRO from Medical Care Alert. This smart watch is designed for seniors to get emergency help when needed, and stay connected with family and friends.

Unlike standard smart watches, the SmartWatch PRO is designed with seniors in mind and offers automatic fall detection as an optional feature.

"The SmartWatch PRO is easy for seniors to use because it has a large clear display, and doesn't require a cellphone or Wi-Fi," said Bryan Stapp, President of Medical Care Alert. "The watch also features automatic fall detection on the wrist, a feature normally worn around the neck," Stapp added.

The SmartWatch PRO is equipped with features to help seniors stay safe and healthy. The watch is easy to use and includes:

* Clear display shows the date and time (digital or analog watch face)

* Press the crown button for 24/7 emergency help

* Pedometer to track steps

* Heart Rate monitor

* "Virtual Assistant" can answer questions like "will it rain tomorrow?" or "who won the World Series in 1984?".

* Automatic fall detection (optional feature) can initiate a call to the emergency response center.

A companion smart phone app allows family members or caregivers to track the watch's location, send scheduled medication reminders to the watch, and keep track of important health information.

ADDITIONAL SMARTWATCH PRO FEATURES INCLUDE:

* Shower-safe to get wet. Highly water-resistant IPX8 rated.

* GPS Location Services.

* T-Mobile cellular service built in, no additional charge or account required.

* 48-hour battery life and Quick Charger (1-hour quick charge to 100%).

* Comfortable watch strap with quick-release pins to customize the watch strap if desired.

* 24/7 monitoring by EMT/EMD certified agents in our US-based emergency response centers.

The watch includes GPS location services that can be used to locate the wearer in case of an emergency. This feature can be used to send an alert to family members or emergency services if the wearer is in danger or needs help.

SMART WATCH WITH AUTOMATIC FALL DETECTION

The SmartWatch PRO offers automatic fall detection as an optional feature.

This innovative feature allows the wearer to have automatic fall detection worn on their wrist, whereas most fall detection buttons are typically worn around the neck as a pendant.

"Some smart watches offer fall detection but are designed for runners and joggers, and only call 911 or a friend," said Stapp. "Our fall detection is designed for seniors and notifies our emergency response center agents with the wearer's location and situation."

If a hard fall is detected, the SmartWatch PRO will sound an alarm and display "FALL DETECTED" on the watch display. The wearer will have up to 30 seconds to cancel the alarm if triggered accidentally. Otherwise, the watch will contact the emergency response center flagging the call as "FALL DETECTED" making the operator aware of the situation.

The wearer is encouraged to always press their button for help in the event of an emergency as fall detection is never 100% accurate.

SMARTWATCH PRO PRICING

The SmartWatch PRO is available exclusively for order on Medical Care Alert's website at http://www.medicalcarealert.com/PRO or calling 855-272-1010.

The cost includes a one-time purchase of the watch, and a monthly subscription plan for service:

* $149.95 SmartWatch PRO one-time purchase

* $39.95 / month subscription for service and cellular

* $10 / month add-on for automatic fall detection

SmartWatch PRO is available now and ships on the same or next business day when ordered.

MAGLITE, the PEDESTRIAN SAFETY INSTITUTE and new partners TO PROMOTE TRAFFIC AND PEDESTRIAN SAFETY DURING National Roadside Traffic Safety Awareness Month

ONTARIO, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- The Maglite® brand partners up with the Pedestrian Safety Institute (PSI) to support traffic and pedestrian safety during the deadliest month of the year, July. According to the PSI, July has the highest rate of traffic-related fatalities. The days surrounding July 4th are particularly dangerous and are routinely referred to as the deadliest driving days of the year.

Drivers in the United States struck and killed 3,434 people in the first half of 2022 - up 5%, or 168 more deaths, from the same period the year before, according to analysis from the Governors Highway Safety Association (GHSA).

Darkness and low visibility play a significant role in pedestrian deaths. In fact, more than 70 percent of fatalities happen in low-light conditions, particularly at night. In addition to the Pedestrian Safety Institute, Maglite is proud to have the American Paramedic Association, Citizens Behind the Badge, the U.S. Deputy Sheriffs Association, the lead economist of the Drucker School, Jay Prag, America's Criminologist Dr. Currie Myers, and legal scholar John Tulac joining in this mission to illuminate the dangers facing pedestrians and solutions.

National Roadside Traffic Safety Awareness Month was created by the Pedestrian Safety Institute with the goal of educating and urging drivers to use caution while driving during this time of year.

"There are simple ways to reduce the number of deaths due to pedestrian traffic accidents - carry a bright flashlight, wear reflective clothing and be cautious, especially around fast-moving traffic," said Tony Maglica, founder and CEO of Mag Instrument, Inc., manufacturer of the Maglite® Flashlight.

Other facts and Safety Tips are available in the attached materials (link below) and at: https://maglite.com/collections/national-roadside-safety-awareness.

ADA Compliance and Digital Kiosks: Ensuring Accessibility in Healthcare Settings

DENVER, Colo. /ScoopCloud/ -- Kiosk Innovations, a U.S. based digital kiosk manufacturing company, would like to inform the various stakeholders within the healthcare industry about the importance of digital kiosks in the medical field and emphasize the need for ADA compliance to ensure equal access and inclusion for all patients. Consulting with experts, such as Kiosk Innovations, can maximize inclusion and efficiency in implementing self-service solutions.

Digital kiosks serve an increasingly wide variety of tasks in today's society. It is no question these terminals can efficiently provide services in healthcare by completing tasks such as wayfinding directions as well as self service check into Epic's Welcome or other EHR systems. Being the patients first impression of a medical group, it is important that these devices are noticeable, welcoming, and easy to use for patients to ensure the patient's journey is fluid which ultimately increases adoption rates in this technology and helps instill confidence in patients.

It is important to understand the demographic of the typical healthcare patient. In many cases these individuals are older and/or may have a higher rate of disability (whether temporary or permanent) than the average US population. Healthcare providers have both an ethical and legal obligation to provide the same level of service to patients with common disabilities. ADA compliance is clearance and reach for those who are wheelchair bound, an audible form of navigation and either tactile or voice recognition for those who are visually impaired, or visual cues for those with auditory impairments.

To fulfil your legal obligations and be ADA compliant one must understand what information is being communicated, what tasks are to be completed, and provide equal access to this information as well as provide an equal amount of privacy. Not providing an equally accessible solution can result in legal ramifications, ethical shortcomings, reputational damage, and a lower adoption rate.

ADA compliance should not just be a legal requirement. Providing equal access and inclusion is the right thing for so many more reasons than just legal ramifications. Ensuring a digital self-service solution is ADA compliant ensures individuals remain autonomous. This allows a much larger range of patience that can complete tasks more efficiently, having a larger pool of patience that can help themselves helps drive organizational efficiencies.

The purpose of self service is to drive efficiency to patients as well as the organization, the greater accessibility the larger the pool of users, the larger the pool of users, the more efficiency gained. Self-service is a tool, the consultant at Kiosk Innovations can help guide you towards a solution that maximizes inclusion for your patients and efficiency for your organization.

Vape Detector introduces a line of sensitive and affordable Vape Detectors that detect vape smoke from glycerin, propylene glycol, and other vape juice components

LOS ANGELES, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- Vape Detector, a Californian brand, has announced the launch of its line of Vape Detectors for schools, hotels, businesses, and parents. The growing popularity of vaping among young people has made it increasingly difficult for schools and workplaces to enforce policies against it. Vape Detector™ is a trademarked brand of Forensics Detectors which is a leading gas detection company located in Los Angeles, California.

Dr. Koz, the president of Forensics Detectors says, "The new line of vape detector products will offer schools, hotels, casinos, and business with choices that will assist in controlling the vaping epidemic."

Vaping has become a growing concern for school administrators and business managers, leading to the implementation of policies aimed to curb vape use. However, enforcing these policies can be difficult. With the introduction of affordable vape detectors, enforcement becomes much more manageable, especially with continuous, real-time vape detection and cell phone alarm features.

A vape detector is an electronic device that detects vape smoke using laser scattering sensor technology. They are over 100 times more sensitive than a typical home smoke alarm. Vape Detector has launched three unique affordable vape detector products to address the vape challenge.

The first is a handheld unit, priced at $195, that can be used for point-and-sample measurements to confirm if vaping has occurred in an indoor space. The second is a modern and slim wall-mount unit, priced at $495, that can provide discreet and real-time monitoring and smartphone alarming, popular among schools and hotels. The third is an industrial wall-mount vape detector, priced at $895, that has cosmetic deterrent features and a super-sensitive laser sensor for industrial workplaces.

The detectors are sensitive to a variety of toxins emitted by vaping, including vape juice smoke, THC vapor, CBD vapor, weed smoke, nicotine smoke, propylene glycol vapor, and glycerin vapor.

SecuGen Releases Hamster Pro Trio for Multi-factor Authentication

SANTA CLARA, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- SecuGen, a world leading optical fingerprint device and technology vendor, is pleased to announce the immediate availability of the Hamster Pro Trio, a multi-factor authentication device that contains an FBI-certified FAP 20 fingerprint reader and both contact and contactless smart card readers.

The new 3-in-1 reader combines fingerprint biometrics and two modes of smart card technologies to allow greater flexibility in deploying multi-factor authentication. The Hamster Pro Trio enables a person to prove their identity with "what they have" - a smart card-and "what they are" - their fingerprints, which can help increase security for a wide variety of applications such as National ID programs, employee identification, physical access control, immigration clearance, patient and healthcare provider ID, and remote work.

In addition to these diverse applications, the Hamster Pro Trio is designed to be compatible with the U.S. FIPS 201 Personal Identity Verification (PIV) program for government employees as well as the U.S. Department of Defense Common Access Card Next Generation (DoD CAC NG) and U.S. Transportation Worker Identification Credential (TWIC).

The Hamster Pro Trio features SecuGen's flagship U20-A fingerprint sensor combined with both a contactless smart card reader based on the AB Circle CIM315F-01 chipset and a contact smart card reader based on the Identiv CLOUD 2100 R chipset. The Identiv CLOUD 2100 R is compatible with the Identiv uTrust 2700 R smart card reader. The Hamster Pro Trio is housed in a case having the same form factor as the Hamster Pro Duo SC/PIV but adds in the contactless card reader with virtually no change in size and weight to the device.

"We built the Hamster Pro Trio to give more options for integrators and developers to implement stronger authentication solutions based on well-established technologies without sacrificing convenience," stated Dan Riley, SecuGen's Vice President of Engineering. "The SecuGen engineering team has once again successfully created a high-quality product but at an affordable price."

SecuGen is known around the world and throughout the biometrics industry for providing high quality fingerprint products at prices suitable for large deployments. The new Hamster Pro Trio is yet another premium product attractively priced for such deployments.
