Acumen Solutions Partners with Veterans Affairs to Transform the Veteran Experience


News Image

We are grateful for the opportunity to serve those who have served us. – Jay Tansing, Acumen Solutions

Acumen Solutions has partnered with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to deliver a better experience for veterans that are utilizing VA benefits and services by modernizing VA’s systems using the Salesforce platform. These new programs, including the caregiver program, contact center modernization, correspondence management, and grants management, are directly impacting the veteran experience.

The VA’s Caregiver Record Management Application (CARMA) system was developed as part of the Mission Act, with the goal of helping over 50,000 veterans receive aid from a caretaker in the comfort of their home, and to provide financial support to caregivers through stipend payments. Acumen Solutions is designing a new system on the Salesforce platform to manage the program applications and triage cases, allowing the VA to modernize the entire process through digital applications rather than the current paper system. The implementation of this program will ultimately result in veterans and their caregivers getting approved for benefits more efficiently.

Additionally, Acumen Solutions is leading contact center modernization initiatives across multiple VA programs, including the Debt Management Center (DMC) and several VA Medical Centers. By unifying the contact center systems using the Salesforce platform, veterans will have an improved customer experience while scheduling appointments, requesting prescriptions, and engaging with these programs across multiple platforms. These upgraded systems will help provide veterans a more streamlined path to resolve their requests.

Acumen Solutions is also supporting the VA’s medical innovation through the Office of Rural Health (ORH) by developing a custom Salesforce solution to manage grant applications. ORH provides grants to VA Medical Centers to implement a wide range of innovation programs at the Medical Center level. This initiative is bringing cutting-edge ideas and medical solutions to veterans and serves as a direct avenue for research funding that will benefit veterans long-term.

“Acumen Solutions is honored to be a part of the VA’s technology revolution. We believe the Department of Veterans Affairs is setting the pace for other government agencies to modernize and improve, in order to provide a better experience for the public. We are grateful for the opportunity to serve those who have served us,” said Jay Tansing, Managing Director at Acumen Solutions.

Radiant Vision Systems Honored by 2019 Laser Focus World Innovators Awards


Radiant Vision Systems Honored by 2019 Laser Focus World Innovators Awards

Combining an imaging radiometer and Fourier optics limits the complexity of NIR measurement by capturing all angular emissions within a single two-dimensional image, in a matter of seconds.

Radiant Vision Systems, the leading provider of automated visual test and inspection solutions for light sources and displays, announced today that its NIR (Near-Infrared) Intensity Lens has been recognized among the best by the 2019 Laser Focus World Innovators Awards. An esteemed panel of judges from the optics and photonics community recognized Radiant Vision Systems as a Gold honoree.

“On behalf of the Laser Focus World Innovators Awards, I would like to congratulate Radiant Vision Systems on their Gold-level honoree status,” said Laser Focus World Editor in Chief John Lewis. “This competitive program allows Laser Focus World to celebrate and recognize the most innovative products impacting the photonics community this year.”

Radiant was honored with a Gold-level award for its new NIR Intensity Lens solution, released January 7, 2019. The NIR Intensity Lens is designed to measure NIR-emitting LED and laser sources—for example, vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers, or VCSELs—used in non-visible 3D sensing applications such as facial and gesture recognition. Radiant’s NIR Intensity Lens is mounted directly to a Radiant ProMetric® Y16 (16-megapixel) Imaging Radiometer and uses Fourier optics to enable single-image analysis of the full angular distribution of an NIR light source to +/- 70 degrees. The system is designed for precise measurement of 940-nanometer wavelength sources—used by the majority of 3D sensing devices in consumer electronics as well as other applications. Paired with a specialized software test suite for NIR source measurement (Radiant’s TT-NIRI™ software module), the lens solution can be used to measure emission uniformity, total flux, and radiant intensity of sources including fall-off and hot spots of flood sources (used for time of flight (ToF) applications) and accurate angular position of structured light dot patterns containing tens of thousands of emission points.

“Capturing NIR emissions in angular space—especially thousands of emission points required for dot-pattern facial recognition—is extremely challenging for traditional measurement equipment,” said Doug Kreysar, Executive Vice President and Chief Solutions Officer at Radiant Vision Systems. “Traditional systems like goniometers capture comprehensive angular data from light sources, but are large, costly, and may take hours to perform a complete analysis. Combining an imaging radiometer and Fourier optics limits the complexity of NIR measurement by capturing all angular emissions within a single two-dimensional image, in a matter of seconds. The Radiant NIR Intensity Lens system can accomplish angular NIR emission measurement using a compact camera/lens combination in place of large, multi-component goniometric systems, giving manufacturers a very space- and cost-effective laboratory measurement solution. The scale and speed of the NIR Intensity Lens system also makes it an optimal solution for production-level qualification, which would be impossible with a lab-based goniometer.”

The 2019 Laser Focus World Innovators Awards Honorees are featured in the November issue of Laser Focus World magazine as well as on http://www.laserfocusworld.com. For more information about the NIR Intensity Lens from Radiant, visit http://www.RadiantVisionSystems.com.

Swappa Launches Local Marketplace in More Than 30 Metros to Transform User-to-User Commerce Experience


News Image

“Being sold a blacklisted phone wasn’t worth the high speed chase that almost happened, but it was the motivation to create a better, safer marketplace,” said Ben Edwards, Founder and CEO of Swappa.

No stranger to taking on major brand competitors, Swappa, known as the safe and friendly marketplace to buy and sell used consumer electronics, is set to challenge traditional local online marketplaces with its innovative people-powered practices and “no junk” policies. Swappa has rolled out its new Swappa Local service in more than 30 metros. Aligning with the company’s commitment to safety and simplicity, Swappa Local is transforming the experience of buying and selling consumer electronics, and is on track to help its users pocket over $100 million this year.

While known as a “friendly” marketplace, Swappa wants to call out competitors’ shortcomings in protecting consumers from fraud and would-be scammers. Unlike other online marketplaces, Swappa manually verifies devices and listings on the site to help ensure products are not lost, stolen, broken or financed. From iPhones and laptops to cameras and video games, Swappa is the first and only local marketplace for used tech that provides a thorough review process to screen devices before they are made available for sale.

“Being sold a blacklisted phone wasn’t worth the high speed chase that almost happened, but it was the motivation to create a better, safer marketplace,” said Ben Edwards, founder and CEO of Swappa. “Our focus on safety is personal to me, having been ripped off using competitor sites. People want and need discounted tech and our goal has always been to connect buyers with gently used, fully functional devices. Swappa wants our users to trust the tech they buy. That’s why we review product listings, implement a unique photo verification process, and even verify serial numbers of all smartphones, the most popular products on the site.”

Unique to Swappa is its dedication to remaining people-powered. In addition to its “no junk” policy, enforced by manually approving every listing on the site and verifying the serial number of cellular devices, Swappa also offers an active support team, monitors communication between buyers and sellers on the site, and enforces a “no jerks” policy by removing users who do not adhere to the site’s friendly policies.

With Swappa Local, buyers and sellers in these markets may now confidently purchase or sell a newish phone, MacBook, and other consumer tech product the same day at a great discount, with the reassurance of Swappa’s verification policies and commitment to safety. Sellers never pay a fee to list their products on Swappa and are ensured fast payment for their devices once sold.

Swappa Local is now live in the following areas:

Atlanta, Austin, Baltimore, Boston, Charlotte, Chicago, Cincinnati, Cleveland/Akron, Columbus, Dallas-Fort Worth, Denver, Detroit, Houston, Kansas City, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Miami/Fort Lauderdale, Minneapolis-St. Paul, New York City, Orange County, Orlando, Philadelphia, Phoenix, Portland, Raleigh/Durham, Sacramento, San Antonio, San Diego, San Francisco, Seattle-Tacoma and Washington, D.C. For more information and to list or shop for a personal technology product, visit Swappa.com.

ABOUT SWAPPA:

Founded in 2010, Swappa is on a mission to offer the best marketplace for buying and selling used consumer electronics. Emphasizing safety, simplicity, low fees and the “human factor,” Swappa has grown to be the marketplace to buy and sell newish tech, with over $100 million in commerce projected this year.
