Thisinstallation is built around six EF450 scalable shared storage appliances, each with 392TB of disk storage, plus two MDC metadata controllers, giving Pixcom both high availability plus all the benefits of the FLOW production asset management software. The network also includes four EFS 40NL nearline storage nodes totalling 1.5PB of storage, plus two backup 672TB EFS 40NL nodes.

The nearline storage provides working storage for media which is in current production but not needing the same levels of throughput as the online storage. Workflow tools built into the EditShare suite ensure material is moved between online and nearline storage as required. The new network also includes EditShare Ark LTO tape drives for permanent archiving, again automated through FLOW.

DXM Technology offers fast and effective services that can solve the problems and challenges faced in all fields of video content production, whether you are a broadcaster, producer, post-production house, blogger or other.

The digital age has completely altered the television and film worlds. With easier and more affordable access to technologies we can now build specific workflow infrastructures that will eliminate major headaches, which in turn allows producers to generate more effective content within established budgets and deadlines.

Digital signage and media technology solutions provider Pixcom Technologies LLC has highlighted a number of emerging trends to affect the Middle East market in upcoming years, predicting that the Middle East and Africa digital signage market is also expected to register a compound annual growth rate of over 6% by 2025.

Pixcom also predicts that Internet of Things (IoT), Augmented Reality (AR) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) are among the trends likely to influence the industry. The company highlights the fact that as AI, AR and IOT further develop and merge with technology like digital signage, the level of personalisation will grow to a great extent and productivity will increase as a result of AI. Furthermore, AI and AR are rapidly becoming household names as companies ranging from big retailers to small restaurants embrace these technologies. With digital signage already making customer experience in retail more comfortable for the customer, AI, AR and IoT will push this further.

SIGNAUX was created with the singular purpose of ensuring quality supply of technology that would help in digitally transforming key public and commercial spaces in the UAE and GCC Region. Launched in 2020, SIGNAUX fulfils the need to have a top-tier IT distribution partner based in the Gulf region for all comprehensive audio-visual requirements.

Solar array engineering was definitely the catalyst for my interest in origami. I could talk to a wall about solar technology if you put me in a room. I never was really into origami outside a few paper footballs, but I wanted to understand the physics-based asymptotes of how I could fold solar arrays into spacecraft, and Origami Engineering is one of the major fields of study.

I became the solar array lead at SpaceX because of my experience with new technologies. My previous work had been in utility-scale terrestrial applications with unique technologies. SpaceX was trying to explore new technologies and I was strolling into a field with a half century of expertise and prior art.

My team was responsible for the combined array systems and exploring multiple asymptotes: electronic performance, mechanical performance, etc, to understand where we could get the most performance per dollar of research.

BYU has a compliant mechanisms lab, Erik Demaine was the youngest professor at MIT and specializes in mathematical folding, Tomohiro Tachi at The University of Tokyo has developed a lot of the more fundamental numerical approaches to folding, and Robert Lang, ex-Caltech. Lang and Tachi are the leaders in the field. The paper I published was with Lang and BYU.

I always wanted to build beautiful mechanical things that people could enjoy. Things that people could interact with. I would always make people small mechanical presents. It also helped me compensate for the stress of working at SpaceX.

This week I had a chance to talk with Brian Ignaut\u2014formerly the lead solar array designer at SpaceX\u2014about his woodworking, his origami research, and the surprising ways it all relates to powering spacecraft. \uD83D\uDE80

It was actually empowering\u2014in both terrestrial and space solar applications there\u2019s a huge body of work and brilliant people. It\u2019s like walking into a mine and seeing a huge vein of gold.

The ascent protection is because launches are incredibly violent, both from the acceleration but also from the vibrations. Imagine peanut brittle the thickness of paper in a paint can on a paint shaker. That\u2019s launching space solar arrays: the array team makes the peanut brittle, the vehicle team makes the paint can, the rocket team makes the paint shaker.

It sucks for everyone, everyone\u2019s in the paint shaker. You have isotropic distribution of pain across the teams. It\u2019s pretty collaborative. SpaceX was great because at a lot of other places, these teams are different companies. We could eat lunch together, exchange loads and margins and performance budgets more seamlessly. SpaceX has by far the most cost-effective technology in the space industry as a result.

For SpaceX I needed to understand the history (what had been done), the competition (what was being done), and the field (what could be done). I was trying to understand the field of relevant research and bring in solutions from unexpected areas. Besides origami, entomology is a really good one\u2014look at how bugs fold their wings.

You have this basic problem of \u201CI need to harvest a bunch of solar energy\u2014I need a big area that fits in a small rocket\u201D\u2014people have been thinking about folding solar arrays a long time in the space industry, but even in biology and mathematics people are thinking about folding: proteins, bug wings, origami engineering\u2014they all do research on how you can use folding math.

Also, I was always jealous of my software friends who could cheaply experiment at home. I had serious prototyping envy. I really liked mechanism design but it\u2019s really hard and expensive to prototype. Origami let me whip up a six-bar mechanism utilizing two joined spherical four-bar mechanisms with shared links and zero backlash in sixty seconds [editor\u2019s note: Brian demonstrated this for me while he was talking\u2013I\u2019ll take his word for it]. I can CRANK through prototypes of solar array mechanisms with Origami!

My favorite is the Kinetic Desk Lamp: it\u2019s a monster technically. It\u2019s three different mechanisms that are all linked so they move together. There are two different operational states that move between the singularity point. When\u2019s it\u2019s deploying it\u2019s an over-constrained six-bar mechanism; when it\u2019s actuating is a spherical four-bar mechanism. When it folds, there\u2019s a point when four different rotational axis intersects and it transforms.

The things that people ask for the most are the ring box and the chess set. I proposed to my wife using the ring box. She loved it. I had desk toys and bugs on my desk for a long time for inspiration. This one toy, a month before I was going to propose, I finally figured out how to turn this mechanism into a nice box. We were in a race to propose first and I was afraid I wouldn\u2019t solve the box in time. She already knew what ring I was getting so her reaction to the proposal was \u201Choly shit, the box!\u201D She forgot to say \u201Cyes\u201D so I had to remind her.
