Wrinkl Granted Patent for @@mention℠ Group Messaging Technology


The familiar “@mention” convention is employed by group chat participants who want to target a message of particular relevance to a specified channel user. While these visible-to-all-in-the-channel “@mention” messages benefit the emphasized @mention recipient by being presented in conversational context, they have the unfortunate consequence of forcing remaining channel members to attend to messages not germane to them.

Today, Wrinkl announces that it has received a patent for its “@@mention℠” technology enabling users to send messages visible to only intended channel member recipients while retaining the sender’s ability to stay in the channel, but without forcing remaining channel members to attend to messages not relevant to them. Simply typing “@@” instead of “@” limits the visibility of the @@mention message to only the @@mentioned channel members. What’s more, @@mention℠ messages are private-reply capable, facilitating an intuitive and simple way for recipients to reply privately to just the sender and eliminating the risk of accidentally “replying to all”.

The patent also enables users to send messages to the entire channel while restricting visibility of each responding member’s reply to just that respondent, and aggregating all replies for the sender of the message replied to.

See @@mention in action: https://vimeo.com/498964478

Since its founding in 2015, Wrinkl, Inc. has been at the forefront of innovation in the group messaging space. Its patented and patent pending technology is being applied worldwide and includes foundational innovations such as One-Step Message Referencing, Email Integration, Sidebars, Influencer Attribution Messaging, and Staggered Circulation Messaging (e.g., greeting cards).

To inquire about licensing @@mention℠ or any other of Wrinkl’s patented or patent pending innovations, please contact us at wrinkl-ip@wrinkl.com.

About Wrinkl

Wrinkl provides messaging solutions that reduce clutter, enhance privacy and distill what’s important — all without leaving the conversation. With Wrinkl, conversation is action — not distraction.

Quantum-safe security firm evolutionQ publishes research report on Quantum Random Number Generators


evolutionQ published a research report on Quantum Random Number Generators (QRNGs) that is freely available for download on the evolutionQ website (https://evolutionq.com/qrng-report-2021). The vendor-neutral research report covers market use cases and technical descriptions of the various types of QRNGs available in the market.

QRNGs are a new class of random-number generators (RNGs), part of the larger class of quantum technologies that include quantum computers themselves. QNRGs exploit quantum physical processes to produce high-quality, testable, genuine randomness.

The report, written by evolutionQ, explores the features of QRNGs as compared to traditional RNGs and is intended as a guide for those making design, architecture, and policy decisions for today’s cybersecurity systems. The report is based on input from several experts in the fields of RNGs and QRNGs, both from industry and academia, who were asked to express an opinion about aspects of QRNGs that set them apart from classical RNGs.

“QRNGs bring additional choices to the array of random number generators already available for real-world deployment,” said Dr. Michele Mosca, CEO of evolutionQ. “In this report we took a balanced approach by interviewing various QRNG vendors as well as end-users of Random Number Generators to explore areas where QRNGs are advantaged and disadvantaged in today’s market.”

“Random numbers, numbers that do not follow any pattern and cannot be guessed, are critical for many real-world applications,” said Duncan Jones, Head of Quantum Cybersecurity, Cambridge Quantum Computing (http://www.cambridgequantum.com), one of the QRNG vendors interviewed for the report. “QRNGs are an important emerging technology because they offer verifiable and true randomness. This is especially important in today’s cloud computing environment, where applications that rely on random numbers for security reasons or fairness reasons can too easily and inadvertently be supplied with low-quality randomness sources when they move to the cloud.”

evolutionQ’s report on Quantum Random Number Generators is freely available for download on the evolutionQ website.

Yamaha THR30IIA Expands the Wireless Desktop Amp Experience to Acoustic Guitarists


News Image

“With the success of the THR-II series, acoustic players will love the THR30IIA, whether they are using it for practice, playing along to their favorite tracks, recording, or sharing their performances online,” said Arthur Morin, marketing manager, guitars, Yamaha.

Yamaha will be showcasing the THR30IIA Wireless desktop amp during NAMM’s virtual Believe in Music week starting January 21, 2021. The THR30IIA Wireless is a 30-watt stereo amplifier explicitly designed for acoustic guitarists. The THR30IIA is the latest addition to the THR family of desktop amplifiers known for their superb sound, innovative features and a stylish, retro-modern look that complements any home décor.

Yamaha established an entirely new category of guitar amplifiers with the original THR series in 2011, which has since earned widespread industry and consumer accolades. Neither a performance amp nor strictly a practice amp, THR represents a third amp category—a desktop that offers guitarists features they need when they aren’t on stage or rehearsing, in addition to exceptional sound and responsiveness at any volume.

The new THR30IIA boasts three authentic-sounding microphone models — dynamic, tube and condenser—as well as onboard effects, including compression, chorus and studio-quality delay and reverb. The stereo reverbs and audio playback, in particular, utilize Extended Stereo Technology (EST), which results in a more immersive listening experience than standard stereo. The THR30IIA incorporates a professional-quality Yamaha D-PRE microphone preamp, as well as a dedicated mode for nylon-string guitars and a multipurpose flat setting. Three-band equalization provides for comprehensive tone shaping, while a specially designed playback system was optimized to provide hi-fi sound quality through two 3.5″ speakers. This perfect combination of innovative technology and inspiring tones enables players to experience their acoustic-electric guitar sound as if it were produced in a professional studio.

A built-in rechargeable battery lets musicians play anywhere their music takes them, while the integrated wireless receiver combines with an optional Line 6® Relay® G10T transmitter to offer players a fully cable-free performance. The amp also includes a USB port for direct recording and playback, facilitated with the bundled Steinberg software for desktop and mobile recording. The amp can also be used with the free Yamaha Rec’n’Share app (available for iOS and Android) which allows musicians to record audio and video along with songs from their music library, then easily share performances online.

Bluetooth support enables wireless playback from Bluetooth audio devices, MIDI footswitch control and communication with the included THR Remote editor/librarian app, compatible with Mac®, PC and mobile devices.

Finally, the amp is equipped with 1/4″ instrument and XLR combo mic inputs, stereo 1/8″ Aux In and Phone jacks, as well as 1/4″ line-level outputs.

“The THR30IIA Wireless provides acoustic guitar players with a perfect combination of professional-quality sound, fully wireless operation and a stylish, modern aesthetic,” said Arthur Morin, marketing manager, guitars, Yamaha. “With the success of the THR-II series, acoustic players will love the THR30IIA, whether they are using it for practice, playing along to their favorite tracks, recording, or sharing their performances online.”

Pricing and Availability

The Yamaha THR30IIA Wireless amp (MSRP: $869.00) is now shipping.

To see the Yamaha THR30IIA Wireless amp on display during Believe in Music week, January 21-24, 2021, please register online at https://attend.believeinmusic.tv
