Consumer Electronics Daily News 5 5 Wednesday, January 4, 2017 market, using a graphite material devel- oped specifically for glass forming appli- cations ensures optimum performance, increased throughput and improved cost of ownership. Poco Graphite has devel- oped a line of materials specifically intended for glass forming applications. Poco's GLASSMATE ® GF materials are specifically designed for glass form- ing applications and produced using a proprietary process which allows differ- entiation over conventional graphite materials. This process differentiation leads to several performance factors, such as a unique microstructure with higher levels of interconnected porosity and tighter correlations between particle and pore. The unique microstructure of Poco's glass forming materials reduces transference or "mapping" of the struc- ture onto the glass surface, therefore min- imizing the need for post-polishing of the glass substrate after forming. This results in a much improved glass clarity, Poco Graphite (Cont'd. from p. 1) increased product yield and reduced pro- duction costs. In addition to offering a premium graphite for glass forming applications, Poco Graphite is also a technical solu- tions provider to its customers with expertise in high temperature technical applications and solutions development. Poco Graphite possesses world class material analysis capabilities and has a history of customized differentiated solu- tions with a dedicated support team. Poco Graphite is a committed participant to all major industries and continually partners with its customers with material develop- ment road mapping for their specific graphite needs. Plan a visit to booth #36068 and speak with a POCO technical specialist to learn how Poco's unique line of graphite materials will benefit your application, and hear about Poco's materials develop- ment and partnering philosophy.

In 2007, when I was playing football for Michigan State, I'll never forget a let- ter I received from a 13-year-old boy who had diabetes. He told me I was his hero because I played his favorite sport and I had diabetes. I kept that letter in my locker room throughout college and I still have it to look back and reflect on the impact I have made as a T1D advocate. I want them to know that if they have a dream, they have to chase it – dia- betes doesn't have to stop you. Diabetes (Cont'd. from p. 1) Defending Health When I found out about continuous glu- cose monitoring (CGM) three years ago, I knew I had to have it right away. Using the Dexcom CGM System helps me have better control of my glucose levels. People with diabetes know that we're the ones in charge of our health. We do what we have to do, and that's why I started using the Dexcom CGM System. I feel like if I can help just one per- son with diabetes wherever and whenev- er I can, I've made a difference.

Our technology is the foundation for good business with our customers and partners. 5G is greater than "an upgrade from 4G" – the intelligence and agility from this network for all networks will spur innovation across many industries. With data rates up to 100 times faster, net- work latency lowered by a factor of five, mobile data volumes 1,000 times greater than today's and battery life of remote cellular devices stretched to 10 years or more, 5G will enable new applications and use cases to come alive. It will enable mission critical industrial applications such as remote control of mining equip- ment several hundred meters under- ground. With a haptic glove, remote sur- gery could take place over a 5G network. 5G will handle massive numbers of bat- tery-operated IoT devices. Indeed, 5G's ability to support a wide range of needs creates opportunities for as-yet unimag- ined cases, applications in new markets and radically new business models. Behind it all, the technology must support the ability to make these cases come true. Right now, operators are exploring how 5G provides a new way to access high bandwidth content using "fixed wireless broadband," previously only possible with fiber or cable net- works. In 5G field trials with Verizon, Ericsson 5G Radio Prototypes hit more than 10 Gbps peak throughput while sup- porting beamforming and beam tracking features. Sweden's Telia partnered with Ericsson to demonstrate 5G capabilities Ericsson (Cont'd. from p. 1) over a live network with peak rates of 15 gigabits per user (40 times faster than today's 4G) and latency below 3 mil- liseconds. The insatiable desire for high quality video, and the emergence of 4K and vir- tual reality (VR), require 5G networks capable of delivering a new generation of broadband multimedia services to homes and businesses. For industrial customers, 5G fixed wireless creates an opportunity to introduce live HD security surveil- lance coupled with the ability to connect massive numbers of environmental and infrastructure sensors, creating a con- verged platform for managing and moni- toring critical infrastructure, all from the same network. 5G takes narrowband connections started in 4G to a new level – with greater battery efficiency, wider coverage and faster speeds for small devices all deliv- ered though "network slices" tailored for the specific requirements of the targeted industry. This maximizes performance and productivity in both indoor and out- door environments. These network capa- bilities expand use cases and applications in agriculture, smart cities, utilities and asset management, where continuous monitoring and management are possible on a massive scale. 5G will be an innovation engine, bringing disruptive change by enabling new use cases, revenue streams and busi- ness models for industries and consumers through innovative products or services, better customer experiences, increased efficiency and improved safety.

If you happen to find a wall outlet, you may not have time to sit there and charge. With our solar power backpacks, you can now charge your devices any time, anywhere. CEDN: Tell our readers how it works. DS: It's simple. The bag's 6.5W hi-effi- ciency solar panel captures the sun's rays. One hour in the sun equals three hours of smartphone usage. The energy is stored in the included hi-capacity 10,000mAh power 'bank' for when you need it. Charge your devices from the 'banked' power any time, anywhere, even when you aren't in the sun. The hi- capacity power bank stores enough power to charge most phones four to five times and charges as fast as the wall outlet. If you are not in the sun enough, no problem – the removable power bank can also recharge from the wall or laptop. CEDN: How did the name HiTech Ninja come about? DS: The word "Ninja" has become syn- onymous with a person who excels, or is revered as an expert, in a particular skill or activity. We believe that whatever you are passionate about is your Ninja! If you HiTech Ninja (Cont'd. from p. 1) like to hike, you are a Hiking Ninja. If you cook, you are a Cooking Ninja or Barbecue Ninja. We salute Ninjas of all walks of life in your fast paced and relentless pursuit of greatness! HiTech Ninja is the proud producer of hi-tech solar power backpacks, wearable and portable gear for the on-the-go lifestyles of Ninjas everywhere! What kind of Ninja are you? CEDN: What was your goal in the devel- opment of this line? DS: I decided a few years ago to com- bine a passion for tech gadgets, the use of sustainable energy and a chance to make a difference in the world. I set my sights on designing a full line of solar power backpacks that would be the per- fect combination of eco-friendly, extreme functionality, elegant design, technology and fashion. I am proud to say we have done it! Sustainable energy solutions to bet- ter our everyday lives is a passion real- ized with HiTech Ninja bags. As a com- pany, we wanted to do even more. A por- tion of the proceeds will go towards solar power bags sent via mission outreach programs to areas of the world that do not always have access to power. In addition, with every HiTech Ninja bag purchase, we pledge to plant a tree. Help us make a difference! For more information, go to www.hitech ninja.com or stop by booth #36737.
