51 PRINTITRESELLER.UK 27 WHAT'S NEW Sustainable LCD projector The launch of the MZ882 Series, Panasonic’s most sustainable projector to date, represents a milestone in the company’s effort to reduce the carbon footprint of its products, for the first time including recycled resins (10%) in the main projector unit and featuring recyclable components throughout. The projector, which minimises waste through a reduction in packaging and related accessories, introduces energysaving innovations while delivering the bright, sharp images in well-lit rooms that customers have come to expect. The Series’ refined optical engine boosts brightness over the existing MZ880 Series with an up to 8.7% increase in lm/W efficiency. The MZ882 Series also introduces an intelligent auto power-on function, starting projection upon signal detection and minimising continuous projector operation during presentations. To limit waste, the ECO Filter can be washed and reused twice. while light source and filter maintenance is recommended at 20,000 hours. https://eu.connect.panasonic.com/ AI redefines business workflows Planet AI has announced the release of IDA 5.2, its software suite for document processing. The latest version offers improvements for document capture, classification, and extracting data from unstructured documents, supporting organisations in integrating AI into their document processes. At the core of IDA 5.2 is the LLM-based (Large Language Model) data extraction, which proves its efficiency in analysing unstructured data. “The LLM-based data extraction feature, now in beta with IDA 5.2, is a revolution in document processing,” said Jesper Kleinjohann, CEO of Planet AI. “We use advanced language models, which have become well-known to everyone since the introduction of ChatGPT. However, our technology is specialised in analytical tasks, thus precisely extracting existing data from documents. It identifies relevant information through a deep understanding of context – a capability that goes far beyond conventional approaches, providing our partners and customers with a decisive added value in document processing.” Software vendors can significantly enhance the base accuracy for their technologies by using IDA‘s advanced handwriting and machine-print capture, which is now available as a plug-and-play SDK. New functions for image binarisation and cropping dramatically improve the readability and storage efficiency of documents, while the redaction of data fields ensures the protection and security of sensitive information. https://planet-ai.com Next-generation IDP software Kodak Alaris has released an updated version of its intelligent document processing (IDP) software, KODAK Info Input Solution. The IDP platform automates and simplifies the journey from document arrival to usage in business processes – quickly, accurately, and reliably. The latest release, Info Input 7, introduces several new platform enhancements, including expanded document AI services for unstructured documents, simplified no-code and low-code workflow automation tasks, and industry-leading human-in-the-loop volume capabilities. Other developments include embedded IDP in everyday applications like Salesforce, a new interactive script editor, and the ability to ingest, process, and deliver real-time feedback on documents from the INfuse Smart Connected Scanning Solution from Kodak Alaris. Info Input Solution is built around Kodak Alaris’ unique Open Intelligence design, in which pre-built document AI models are immediately deployed within a workflow process. The advanced IDP solution uses machine learning and integrations with industry-leading AI tools to deliver remarkably reliable data accuracy and sustainable productivity gains. Info Input 7 makes it easier to fully automate document workflows, from classification and separation to data extraction, indexing, and validation. The solution enables customers to easily leverage the most advanced and powerful document AI technology from leaders such as Google, Microsoft, and Amazon, right out of the box. www.alarisworld.com Flip-Chip technology Sharp NEC Display Solutions Europe’s new generation dvLED FE Series bundles feature the highly energy-efficient FlipChip SMD technology. Consuming up to 60% less power than standard SMD technology at the same brightness levels, the FE Series modules contribute significantly to meeting sustainability goals while reducing energy bills. In addition to improving the energy efficiency of the series, the new Flip-Chip SMD design also improves heat dissipation and durability to further extend the lifecycle for an overall more sustainable solution. The new high-efficient series is ideal for indoor use in a variety of scenarios, including corporate signage, conferencing, command and control, broadcast, higher education, and leisure. www.sharpnecdisplays.eu Management portal for MSPs IT asset discovery company Lansweeper has launched a new multi-site management portal that enables MSPs to analyse customer environments at scale, spot trends and manage risk.
