Stefan Leipold CEO of STARK introduces new Magnetic Privacy products Designed for Microsoft Surface devices

Leave a comment


Nothing is as powerful and contagious as the human idea and the willpower behind it


NEW YORK (PRWEB)

One year ago, STARK started working closely with the Microsoft “Designed for Surface” development team to design and create the Magnetic Privacy Screens for the Microsoft Surface devices (US Pat. US09829669). “Especially during Covid, many people grew accustomed to working remotely, using laptops or tablets” as noted by Stefan Leipold, CEO and Founder of STARK. Blue-Light exposure is one of the features STARK products reduce by over 50%.

STARK’s products are super thin and can stay attached to the Surface device. Products are also compliant with the Microsoft “Zero Gab Technology” of the Microsoft Surface Laptop 3/4 devices, while the Surface Pen functions as promised.

Not only do STARK’s products reduce the blue-light effect, but they also provide a 4-way privacy function, both horizontal and vertically. The anti-glare coating reduces reflections of light. In comparison to similar products available in the market, the Designed for Surface label guarantees products are tested and proven by Microsoft not to damage any Surface device, nor interfere with any sensors, or functionalities. This ensures users can enjoy the full performance of their Microsoft Surface device.

The following models are supported by STARK’s new magnetic privacy screens:

Microsoft Surface Go2

Microsoft Surface Pro 5/6/7/7+

Microsoft Surface Laptop 3/4 13” and 15”

Another reason companies look to STARK is to keep personal and corporate data safe, especially now that people are allowed to socialize and work in public again. In the last 12 months alone, cyber-security threats have increased by 400%, causing tremendous financial damage to corporations, governments, and individuals.

Having a privacy screen on a mobile device is essential in 2021, at a time when 80% of all work and internet access is done on-the-go from portable devices. Aside from keeping your Microsoft Surface device always up-to-date and having good protection installed on your device, a privacy screen should always be part of the first line of defense against Cyber-security threats.

E2WATTⓇ Wireless Power Supply Technology

E2WATT technology reaches up eight times further (to 40 mm) and delivers up to 300 W – a real breakthrough for inductive standards.


MODENA, Italy (PRWEB)

Eggtronic, the innovative leader in power electronics, has announced E2WATT®, a new AC power technology that will boost the power, efficiency, charging distance and data transmission capabilities of wireless charging applications.

Offering efficiency comparable with the best conventional wired AC adapters, E2WATT provides the foundation for taking future mobile charging designs into new segments including laptops, AV equipment, and even home appliances and electric vehicles.

Traditional Qi wireless power is limited by distance (usually 5 mm), and maximum power (usually up to 30 W). E2WATT technology reaches up eight times further (to 40 mm) and delivers up to 300 W – a real breakthrough for inductive standards.

E2WATT wireless technology is powered directly from AC mains, without the need for an external power supply. The single-stage hybrid design minimizes losses compared with conventional double-stage wireless technologies to deliver significantly increased peak efficiencies of up to 95%.

“We developed the entire E2WATT wireless platform, from the concept to proprietary architecture and firmware, in order to overcome the limitations of standard AC power adapters and Qi wireless chargers, multiplying the number of applications and the usability of products based on Qi technology,” said Igor Spinella, CEO and founder of Eggtronic.

“The industry-changing performance of E2WATT is enabled by the high-speed gallium nitride – or GaN – semiconductor technology used in GaNFast power ICs,” added Stephen Oliver, VP Corporate Marketing at Navitas Semiconductor. “The Eggtronic team realized the limitations of legacy silicon chips and early discrete GaN with complex circuits and many discrete components. GaNFast power ICs are easy-to-use, ‘digital-in, power-out’ circuit building blocks which meant the expert team in Modena could focus on their proprietary, high-speed E2WATT topology and achieve a very fast time to market.”

“We invented a hybrid AC wireless power solution which is both a power supply and a wireless charger, able to increase efficiency, power, distance, and reduce both size and complexity,” said Matteo Ovi, Head of B2B Sales at Eggtronic. “With today’s announcement, we can expand into new segments and products that were not possible before. Wireless laptops, TVs, sound systems, home appliances, and every other powerful electric and electronic device can be supplied wirelessly with the same efficiency of the best conventional wired AC adapters.”

“Microchip Technology’s flexible dsPIC33 microcontroller with a powerful DSP core, high speed ADCs and high resolution PWMs enable the unique system architecture resulting in increased z-distance charging,” said Joe Thomsen, vice president of Microchip’s 16-bit microcontroller business unit. “Our collaboration with Eggtronic has resulted in the development of a unique and differentiated Qi transmitter design for customers.”

These extremely useful features ensure a reduction of the global cost of the solution, an increase of performance and usability and a smaller carbon footprint. Additionally, thanks to the proprietary receiving technology, the platform allows for a significant drop in receiver temperatures. The charging performance of modern smartphones and laptops are therefore improved, resulting in a better user experience.

E2WATT AC wireless power supply enables the creation of new scenarios. Several products based on the technology are currently being released while consumer, industrial and automotive solutions are in parallel development.
