Azuga Selected for First-Ever Road Usage Charge Demonstration in Hawaii

Leave a comment


News Image

“We look forward to bringing our secure, driver-centric approach to the residents of Hawaii and to assisting HDOT in assessing possible future funding systems for the unique needs of the state.”


FREMONT, Calif. (PRWEB)

Azuga, the leading global provider of connected vehicle and fleet technologies, announced that it has been selected as the exclusive technology provider for the second phase of the Hawaii Road Usage Charge (HiRUC) Demonstration Project. For Part 2 of the HiRUC demonstration, up to 2,000 participants are expected to sign up for the latter 9-month portion of the 18-month study, which is designed to research the viability of road usage charging as an alternative infrastructure funding system for the state. Part 2 of the HiRUC demonstration project is expected to launch Spring 2020 and will include research from participants using Azuga’s in-vehicle plug-and-play technology when driving on public roads throughout the counties of Hawaii, Maui, Oahu, and Kauai.

The need for alternative funding arises from the decreasing transportation funds, which have been predominantly provided by revenue from a per-gallon gas tax. As more and more vehicles on the road are fuel-efficient and fuel-independent, the state funds used to build, maintain, and improve public roads have flattened and will decline. Many state governments are seeking revenue alternatives as a means to protect their infrastructure investment, and some are investigating road usage charging (RUC) as a promising solution. RUC pilots have been completed across the United States and are currently active on the East Coast and in Oregon. Recently, the legislators of the State of Utah signed RUC into mandate as a long-term funding system solution.

In Hawaii, each county has its own gas tax in addition to the state gas tax. Furthermore, the state is sustainability minded. “Hawaii and its counties have a commitment to a clean energy future, including transforming Hawaii’s ground transportation to 100-percent renewable fuel sources by 2045,” said Ging Ging Fernandez, the HiRUC Project Manager with D’Artagnan Consulting, a specialized firm hired by the Hawaii Department of Transportation (HDOT) to manage the project. “HiRUC is an opportunity to advance the state-of-the-practice of road usage charging policy and technology possibilities.”

Part 2 of the HiRUC demonstration will evaluate methods of mileage collection and, unique to other RUC programs, it will utilize Azuga’s advanced public versus private road differentiation for accurate assessment of only public road use. Charges will be simulated for the project, and no real money will be collected. Azuga will provide three mileage reporting methods (MRMs) including location-enabled and non-location enabled OBDII devices, which can be plugged into most vehicles’ diagnostics port under the dashboard. Participants utilizing these devices may also opt in to Azuga’s convenient, premium services such as diagnostic trouble code alerts, battery voltage alerts, and driver scores. The third MRM is Vehcon’s OdoPhoto, a non-location image capture solution embedded within Azuga’s smartphone app that allows participants to periodically snap a photo of their odometer and remotely submit it for mileage processing.

“Azuga has been specializing in and innovating road usage charging technology since its inception in the U.S., and both our clients and users continually praise Azuga Insight’s ease of use, accuracy, and convenient services,” said Nate Bryer, Vice President of Innovation at Azuga. “We look forward to bringing our secure, driver-centric approach to the residents of Hawaii and to assisting HDOT in assessing possible future funding systems for the unique needs of the state.”

HiRUC Part 2 follows the launch of Part 1, which is a manual demonstration that uses the odometer readings taken during Hawaii drivers’ regular, mandated safety inspections. Owners of vehicles will begin receiving driving reports in late 2019 with annual, simulated road usage charges. Part 2 of the demonstration will analyze the mileage collection process via other technologies.

Corrugated Cardboard Counter Displays from Sunrise Hitek

Leave a comment


Corrugated Cardboard Counter Displays

Corrugated Cardboard Counter Displays

Consumers can choose a standard style model or a sloped model for their display box. Sunrise has existing template sizes to choose from while custom sizes are always welcome.


CHICAGO (PRWEB)

Corrugated cardboard counter displays work well to get a product directly in front of customers in retail environments. The first thing a consumer sees when they are introduced to a product is the packaging, and first impressions go a long way! When it comes to packaging it is integral to get it just right. Lengthy runs can be quite expensive, and take up to 10 weeks production time. Sunrise Hitek offers prototype packaging in short runs starting with as few quantities as a handful to 1000’s, depending on the project. Since they are a full service digital printer they can also get the project done in a fraction of the time.

Consumers can choose a standard style model or a sloped model for their corrugated cardboard counter display. Sunrise has existing template sizes to choose from while custom sizes are always welcome. These can also be made with or without a header. All graphics are printed high-resolution with bright vivid full color. Sunrise are also a G7 Certified Master Printer further ensuing color quality control. Digital printing also allows for two crucial things: full customization and fast turnaround time. Low minimum quantity orders needed are another added perk.

An article on interactonshelf.com discusses the importance of eye-catching product design. They reference a Nielson study that found 36% of customers purchased an item based upon product design. They also assert that 64% of consumers try a new product simply because of the packaging. With so many different products sitting on the shelves, a new product really needs to stand out to be noticed. That puts a heavy premium on getting packaging right.

Sunrise Hitek is an industry leader in packaging and packaging design. This past fall Sunrise Hitek collaborated with Mrs. Meyer’s Clean Day to create a completely custom box to showcase their products. This was a unique project due to the many different materials and techniques that went into this single project. The materials used for the finished project included: foam, canvas, custom cotton strap with leather ends, wood, plastic and aluminum, chrome fasteners, cardboard, UV ink, soft-touch laminations, and adhesives. The interior structure for the box was aluminum composite panels and PVC board. The exterior was primarily comprised of UV printed and laminated cardboard.
