The increased motivation to innovate during the past couple of years in a world more connected than ever before, has prompted top electronics brands in different parts of the world to speed up enhancement of existing hardware. With video-conferencing, virtual meetings, home entertainment and contactless services becoming essential solutions for the new-normal, projectors, intelligent kiosks, smarter laptops and accessories for crystal clear audio have gained popularity in the UAE.
In line with the legacy of Taiwanese electronics established by delivering excellence for decades, brands like ASUS, AVer, BENQ, LUFTQI and Advantech, stepped up to enhance work from home with computers, cameras and streaming devices. They were joined by MSI, ATEN, PLANET, Plustek, QNAP and VAGO, to offer smart TVs and vacuum bags to boost convenient living as well as entertainment for households.
Since the plethora of technology available in the UAE can spoil consumers for choice, Taiwan Excellence has handpicked the best gadgets from brands based-out of the country, and bundled them into an all-purpose suit for work and leisure. Apart from the focus on remote working and in-house entertainment, these devices from Taiwan Excellence are also designed for integration into hybrid workspaces.
A range of Asus Expertbooks for productive days at work
The brand, which has made a name for durable and user-friendly laptops, will be contributing to the product suite with its Asus Expertbook B9, which is sleek, easy to carry around and has an all day battery life for efficiency on the move. Embedded with a next gen processor from Intel, it turns into a powerhouse of productivity, and facilitates clear communication during meetings thanks to intelligent noise cancellation.
The dual-SSD RAID support optimises data storage by combining multiple drives, and the proximity sensor is able to detect the presence of a user for seamless operations.
Smart cameras from AVer for undivided attention
Empowered by Human Detection technology, the PTC310 from AVer’s PTZ family of cameras, is ideal for virtual meetings or remote presentations, since it follows the speaker and allows limitless movement. Built for flawless streaming with an 12X optical zoom feature and Full HD 1080p resolution, the PTC310 selected by Taiwan Excellence, has separate functions for broadcasting and recording too.
Smart kiosks from Advantech for swift access
From retail spaces to airports and hotels, intelligent displays which facilitate contactless transactions are gaining a foothold during the age of social distancing. Which is why Taiwan Excellence has zeroed in on Self-Checkout Service Kiosks from Advantech, which come loaded with payment systems, barcode scanners and printers.
For providing a more interactive experience to customers and to boost business, the Self-Checkout kiosk also has cameras and LED status indicators for relaying updates.
ATEN’s AV mixer for effortless streaming
In an age when virtual seminars and remote meetings with multiple participants are being preferred, the StreamLIVE PRO AV mixer from ATEN is a production powerhouse, compressed into a tiny device. Starting with high definition 1080p video recording, the StreamLIVE PRO device goes on to encode videos to be broadcast on diverse platforms, and converts content to formats that enable glitch-free sharing.
ATEN’s AV mixer also enables real-time editing, by splitting videos and mixing audio for effectively broadcasting the material, while users can also choose a scene from eight presets. In addition to preview and full screen modes, the StreamLive Pro AV Mixer provides a professional touch via PiP visual effects, combined with graphic and text overlays.
Captivating home entertainment from BenQ
Outdoor activities including sports, recreation and visits to cinema halls have been replaced to a great extent by streaming services, online gaming and movie nights at home. Taiwan Excellence has introduced BenQ’s Projector TK700STi as the ideal home entertainment powerhouse, to transport theatres to living rooms across the Emirates.
It’s the world’s first projector which boosts the joy of gaming with 4K HDR, and has a super-quick latency of 16ms for an easy-on-the-eyes viewing experience for sports, films and live events.
Travel easy with vacuum compressors
As UAE residents step out to resume travel plans that were kept on the backburner during the lockdown, Taiwan Excellence has recommended VAGO’s portable vacuum compressor the TVD1 to squeeze soft items down to size for extra space. Available in four colours, the trendy device takes just five minutes to do its job, and also blocks the spread of bacteria in the luggage, by storing dirty clothes in a vacuum.
Weighing only 86 grams, and designed to be portable, the VAGO portable vacuum compressor TVD1 is suitable for those who like to travel light.
An entire desktop computer bundled into a tiny package
For those who wish to carry around a complete workstation wherever they go, the product suit from Taiwan contains a small cube which has a desktop PC compressed within. The palm-sized Cubi-5 mini-PC created by Micro-Star International, is also the tiniest gadget of its kind.
A single platform to manage key functions
When workplaces are relying on digitisation to manage operations at a higher pace via automation, the PLANET L-24 device comes with intelligent PoE functions to manage surveillance, wireless networks and bluetooth access points. To make it more user-friendly, PLANET has also added an LCD touch screen to the smart device.
Quick ID verification with smart scans
Facial recognition and biometrics are now playing a larger role for secure access in public spaces, and for immigration procedures at airports. Plustek’s SecureScan X-series, is both stylish and accurate, to blend into surroundings and provide quick check-in services.
It enables businesses to collect customer information with precision, while ensuring higher traffic by speeding up access.
Secure storage for the information age
Data is one of the most valuable assets in a connected world, with businesses and public services banking on seamless as well as safe transfer of information. The TS-h973AX from QNAP, offers compact SATA drive bays and multiple SSD slots, to make it a one stop shop for media transfer, large scale storage, creation of backups and intensive access to files.
Breathe free, live healthy
Air purifiers may have gained more prominence after the virus became a threat to indoor spaces, but they are also crucial in times of deteriorating air quality. By providing clean air, LUFT Cube air purifiers by Rice Ear, which are also portable, can significantly boost personal health in the longer run.
The device focuses on converting pollutants, odors, allergens and toxic chemicals, into water and carbon dioxide, to generate fresh air for households and workplaces.
