SINGAPORE - November 2, 2021 - (Newswire.com)

The cutting-edge facilities are located at iFAST Corp's head office in the Ocean Financial Centre in the heart of Singapore's Central Business District. The extensive studio contains multiple sets including a large chroma key green screen set for virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) productions and news set containing a 5-meter-wide production-grade LED video-wall from Unilumin. All the studio cameras are NDI® 4K, and all the networking and production systems are based on the latest NDI® 5 technology from BirdDog and NewTek.

The new iFAST TV studio is built in what was formerly a large conference room which had seen a great reduction in usage due to the Covid-19 social distancing measures. The studio will provide unprecedented communications ability for iFAST Corp to produce and live-stream high-quality 4K professional television programmes and provide a content library to its customers which include over 520 companies with more than 10,000 wealth advisers currently using the iFAST B2B platforms.

"iFAST Corp's mission is to help investors around the world invest globally and profitably. For more than 20 years, we have worked to ensure our investors have access to information and research content that can help them in the investment journey. Tapping on the potential of the rapidly growing digital media space, we see iFAST TV as a natural extension of our fintech driven and investor-focused business as we continually seek to better serve, educate and engage our investors," said Mr Lim Chung Chun, Chairman and CEO of iFAST Corp.

"Covid-19 has dramatically impacted how corporations communicate with their customers and partners. With conferences and exhibitions being cancelled and travel being restricted, many corporations are choosing to build professional-grade TV studios to create their own content and communicate directly with their customers via social media and streaming to apps. For the iFAST TV studio, we based the whole video production architecture on next-generation NDI® infrastructure and is likely a world first insofar as there is zero legacy SDI equipment or cabling used in the entire facility. This is truly a next-generation TV production system supporting end-to-end 4K over IP from camera, through production and live-streamed securely up to 4K to the viewer. By utilizing NDI® and Live Call Connect with the NewTek™ TriCaster® 2 Elite we have dramatically reduced the complexity of the solution architecture for technically complex productions such as featuring multiple video calls from platforms like Zoom® and Microsoft® Teams in live interviews on the Video Wall or in Virtual Space in the Chroma set, while making the backend production systems easier to and more efficient to operate by the iFAST TV production team," said Fintan Mc Kiernan, CEO of Ideal Systems Singapore.

Bird of Paradise review: Catherine Chau takes up pole dancing in light-hearted family drama

2.5/5 stars In Bird of Paradise, a dutiful middle-aged Hong Kong woman takes up pole dancing and shatters her thankless routine of cooking and cleaning for her family. Marking the feature debut of writer-director Joey Wu Chui-yi, this perfectly pleasant family drama offers an easy watch for viewers seeking light-hearted domestic quibbles. More sophisticated audiences, however, will find it slightly shallow and naive. Crucially, the film provides a rare leading role for Catherine Chau Ka-yee. She...

Smarter Bathroom: Meet Moderno Home Depot’s MHD-4500 AI Smart Toilet

The modern bathroom is evolving beyond functionality, with smart technology bringing greater convenience, personalized comfort, and new possibilities for everyday living. Joining this shift is Moderno Home Depot’s MHD-4500 AI Smart Toilet. Introduced as the Philippines’ first app-controlled smart toilet, the unit combines smartphone connectivity, hygiene-focused functions, and wellness-inspired features in a contemporary design. At the heart of the MHD-4500 is its smartphone connectivity. Through the Moderno Smart Home app, available on the Google Play Store and Apple App Store, users can connect to the unit via Bluetooth and access its smart features directly from their phones. Voice control and a remote control system offer additional ways to operate the toilet, providing greater convenience and flexibility for everyday use. “As the Philippines’ fastest-growing smart toilet brand, Moderno Home Depot believes that innovation should make everyday living more convenient and comfortable. The MHD-4500 reflects our commitment to bringing smart technology into practical home solutions, giving Filipino homeowners more opportunities to experience the benefits of a connected home,” said Rovie Sanchez, co-owner of Moderno Home Depot. Beyond connectivity, the MHD-4500 places personal hygiene and comfort at the center of the bathroom experience. It features a self-cleaning nozzle, front and rear wash functions, bidet and hip wash options, adjustable nozzle positioning, and UV sterilization. These functions offer users more options for a personalized cleansing routine while incorporating additional hygiene features into an everyday essential. Comfort takes center stage through its heated seat, adjustable water temperature, and adjustable drying system. Multiple massage modes, including strong-soft and moving massage functions, provide further customization. Built-in aromatherapy, dynamic lighting, and a soft night light add a wellness-inspired dimension, while automatic lid opening and closing and a slow-closing seat ring bring added convenience to daily routines. These features are housed in a modern, elongated design crafted from premium ceramic. An LED display and integrated controls complement its contemporary appearance, allowing the unit to combine smart functionality with a clean, modern aesthetic. Practical considerations are also part of its design. The MHD-4500 uses a siphon-jet flushing system with automatic and manual flushing options, as well as a foot-sensor flush function. A built-in water tank and booster pump support its flushing system, while leakage protection and power-outage flushing provide additional functionality. For Jean Sanchez, co-owner of Moderno Home Depot, thoughtful home upgrades are about creating spaces that respond to people's everyday needs. “Creating a comfortable home goes beyond choosing beautiful fixtures. It is also about finding solutions that make everyday routines easier and more personal. With the MHD-4500, we want to encourage homeowners to look at the bathroom in a new way and discover how technology can bring added comfort and convenience to their daily lives,” she said. The product launch coincided with the opening of Moderno Home Depot’s newest showroom in Biñan City, Laguna, on Oct. 8, expanding the brand’s presence in South Luzon. The showroom offers homeowners, architects, and construction professionals another destination to explore modern bathroom fixtures and home solutions. With the MHD-4500, Moderno Home Depot brings connected technology into a space where comfort, hygiene, and functionality intersect every day. It offers homeowners a new way to think about bathroom upgrades — not simply as a matter of aesthetics, but as an opportunity to make everyday living more convenient and personalized.
