The new applications are designed to work across CTS' full product portfolio, including Comcast Media360™ for broadcasters and content owners, Comcast Sports360™ for sports rights holders, and standalone deployments of CTS' Cloud Video Platform (CVP) for operators.

"The video industry is ready to move past AI hypotheticals and onto production-ready applications that solve real problems, generate new business opportunities, and integrate seamlessly into the workflows they already rely upon," said Bart Spriester, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Streaming, Broadcast, and Advertising at Comcast Technology Solutions. "Whether for creating vertical videos, localization, advanced advertising, metadata enrichment, quality control, or intelligent clip generation, CTS stands ready to help our customers benefit from AI to better manage and monetize their content catalogs. CTS VideoAI is based on implementations deployed by some of the world's largest media companies, and we're excited to roll out this package of new applications designed to help our customers of all sizes benefit from that experience in new ways."

Next-Gen AI Applications

The next-gen AI applications from CTS include:

- Video Verticalization: Using AI-driven smart cropping technology, CTS can automatically convert landscape video content into portrait format for social media syndication, intelligently identifying the "action center" of each scene and making intelligent cut or pan decisions without manual editor intervention.

- Localization of Regional Languages: Leveraging AI-generated voices, CTS can automate dubbing workflows that previously required costly and time-consuming human voice talent. The application can extract audio from soundtracks, preserve ambience and music, translate dialogue, select appropriate voice matching, relay the finished audio back into the content, and generate automated captions.

- Automated Quality Control: CTS will also offer AI-powered "virtual eyes-on-glass" QC checks — including black screen detection, missing audio identification, and other content integrity verifications. This capability can enable cost-effective QC across a significantly larger portion of the content catalog compared to traditional human monitoring approaches.

- Intelligent Clipping: CTS will also offer natural language query-driven clip identification and selection, allowing editors to find key moments within long-form content. This could include sports highlights, social media clips, or trailer generation, and then trigger automated processing and publishing workflows.

CTS' new applications are integrated into CTS' Cloud Media Processing (CMP) engine, a flexible, programmable workflow orchestration layer. Processors can be inserted as pre-processors, content manipulation steps, or post-processors, enabling customers to activate individual AI capabilities within their existing workflows without rebuilding their technology stack. For broadcasters and content owners using Comcast Media360, the AI-enhanced workflow processors integrate with existing channel origination and content supply chain services. For sports organizations leveraging Comcast Sports360, capabilities such as intelligent clipping and metadata enrichment are directly applicable to live and on-demand sports content workflows. For MVPDs and operators, these applications will be made available through CTS' Cloud Video Platform. Each of these applications is expected to be made commercially available throughout 2026-2027 to support customer deployments.

-Pudu Robotics lanza la Serie PUDU GT, una gama de tres modelos de cortacéspedes robóticos comerciales para el mantenimiento profesional de terrenos y césped

SHENZHEN, China, 2 de septiembre de 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Pudu Robotics, un líder mundial en robótica para servicios comerciales lanzó la Serie PUDU GT, una nueva gama de cortacéspedes robóticos comerciales diseñados para el mantenimiento profesional de áreas verdes y césped.

Compuesta por los modelos PUDU GT3, PUDU GT5 y PUDU GT7, la serie satisface tres necesidades específicas de corte de césped profesional: mantenimiento integral de áreas verdes para propiedades comerciales, mantenimiento de alta eficiencia de grandes extensiones de césped y cuidado preciso del césped para campos de golf y campos deportivos profesionales.

El mantenimiento profesional de áreas verdes va más allá del simple corte de césped. Los campus empresariales, parques, escuelas y propiedades comerciales suelen combinar césped con áreas pavimentadas y espacios fragmentados, donde los recortes, las hojas y los residuos afectan tanto la apariencia como el mantenimiento. El uso de máquinas separadas para cortar, barrer y recoger implica cambios de equipo adicionales, coordinación y pasadas repetidas; mientras que un césped grande, una propiedad compleja y un campo de golf requieren soluciones diferentes. La Serie PUDU GT aborda estas necesidades con tres modelos diseñados específicamente, cada uno de los cuales combina sistemas especializados de corte y recogida con autonomía inteligente para aplicaciones profesionales específicas.

PUDU GT3 — Corte y limpieza compactos para el mantenimiento diario de áreas verdes

El PUDU GT3 es un robot cortacésped comercial compacto de 91 cm (36 pulgadas) diseñado para empresas de gestión de instalaciones y equipos de mantenimiento de áreas verdes responsables de propiedades con diseños fragmentados e irregulares, como parques empresariales, campus universitarios, hospitales y terrenos mixtos con superficies pavimentadas y césped, demasiado pequeños o segmentados para equipos de corte de gran tamaño, pero cuyo mantenimiento manual requiere demasiado trabajo.

El GT3 combina el corte, la recogida de césped y la eliminación de residuos ligeros en áreas verdes con el barrido y la recogida de residuos en áreas pavimentadas. Sus cepillos de disco integrados son ideales para la limpieza ligera alrededor de caminos, bordes de carreteras y límites de áreas verdes. Al integrar el corte y el barrido rutinario en una plataforma compacta, el GT3 se puede usar con mayor frecuencia en toda la propiedad, reduciendo la necesidad de cambiar de equipo para el mantenimiento diario de áreas verdes.

PUDU GT5 — Siega de alta productividad para grandes extensiones de césped comercial

El PUDU GT5 es un robot cortacésped rotativo comercial de 152 cm (60 pulgadas) diseñado para contratistas de paisajismo y mantenimiento de áreas verdes, empresas de administración de instalaciones y operadores responsables de parques, campus, propiedades comerciales, comunidades y otras áreas extensas de césped.

GT5 está diseñado para ciclos de corte comerciales exigentes y repetitivos. Su ancho de corte de 152 cm (60 pulgadas) permite una eficiencia operativa de aproximadamente 8.090 m² (2 acres) por hora, con hasta 10 horas de funcionamiento y una cobertura de hasta 65.000 m² (16 acres) con una sola carga, según las condiciones de operación.

GT5 corta y recoge en una sola pasada, recogiendo recortes de césped, hojas y pequeños residuos durante el corte. La eliminación de este material durante el proceso de corte ayuda a mantener un acabado más limpio y un césped de aspecto más saludable, mientras que el amplio ancho de corte y el flujo de recolección facilitan la continuidad del trabajo en grandes áreas.

PUDU GT7 — Corte de precisión con carrete para césped profesional

El PUDU GT7 es una segadora de carrete triplex de 160 cm (62 pulgadas) diseñada para campos de golf, campos deportivos profesionales y otros entornos de césped profesional donde la calidad del corte, la uniformidad, la protección del césped y el control de los límites son fundamentales.

GT7 integra RTK, LiDAR y visión por cámara para un posicionamiento de alta precisión y navegación autónoma, con una precisión de posicionamiento RTK de hasta ±2,5 centímetros en condiciones compatibles. Los operadores pueden configurar los ángulos de corte, los desplazamientos de carril y las rotaciones direccionales para establecer patrones de corte estandarizados y reproducir franjas profesionales en las áreas de césped.

GT7 cuenta con tres unidades de carrete flotantes independientes y ajuste de altura de corte (HOC) sin herramientas. Los cabezales de corte flotantes siguen de cerca los cambios del terreno para ayudar a mantener una altura de corte uniforme en superficies onduladas, mientras que el ajuste sin herramientas permite a los operadores cambiar la altura de corte sin necesidad de herramientas adicionales. La plataforma combina un ancho de corte de 160 cm (62 pulgadas), mientras que la tracción a las cuatro ruedas y la capacidad de subir pendientes de hasta 30 grados facilitan el funcionamiento en terrenos complejos.

Diseñado para entornos donde la calidad del césped y las condiciones de operación son cruciales, el GT7 también ofrece una experiencia de corte más silenciosa. Sin un motor de combustión tradicional y con un sistema de carrete de bajo ruido, el GT7 funciona con la suficiente discreción como para preservar el entorno, lo que lo hace ideal para lugares sensibles al ruido, como campos de golf e instalaciones deportivas.

Inteligencia nativa de IA y operación flexible en toda la serie GT

Si bien los modelos GT3, GT5 y GT7 están diseñados para diferentes aplicaciones, comparten una arquitectura de percepción y autonomía nativa de IA, creada para entornos comerciales al aire libre. LiDAR, la visión por cámara y la detección de profundidad permiten a los cortacéspedes percibir personas, vehículos, animales, el terreno y otros obstáculos, mientras que el mapeo autónomo, la navegación y la evitación de obstáculos garantizan una operación confiable en áreas de trabajo complejas.

Los tres modelos integran un sistema de aspiración con ventilador y una entrada de césped dedicada para la recolección durante el proceso, con descarga autónoma y reanudación de la tarea disponibles según la configuración de despliegue.

Cada modelo también incluye un modo de conducción manual para el corte, posicionamiento y otras tareas que requieren intervención directa del operador. En conjunto, estas capacidades permiten a los equipos de mantenimiento combinar el trabajo rutinario autónomo con el control manual cuando las condiciones del sitio o las prioridades operativas lo requieren.

La serie GT también está diseñada para las exigencias del trabajo comercial al aire libre, con una carrocería totalmente metálica, chasis de acero de grado comercial, protección con clasificación IP66 y función de parada de emergencia. En conjunto, estas capacidades proporcionan una base común de grado comercial en toda la gama, mientras que cada modelo se mantiene optimizado para un requisito de corte específico.

Lanzamiento mundial en GaLaBau 2026

Pudu Robotics hará el debut mundial de la serie PUDU GT en GaLaBau 2026 (del 15 al 18 de septiembre, Nürnberg Messe, Núremberg, Alemania), mostrando la nueva gama de productos en el stand interior 9-214 y en el área de demostración exterior Legend Pf10 para que los profesionales del paisajismo, la gestión de terrenos y el cuidado del césped puedan experimentarlo de primera mano.

„Partnerstwo to jest ważnym krokiem w zwiększaniu dostępności chirurgii robotycznej na świecie - powiedział prof. Kwok Wai Samuel AU, założyciel i dyrektor generalny Cornerstone Robotics. - Nadal istnieje duża luka między rosnącym zapotrzebowaniem na chirurgię małoinwazyjną a dostępnością technologii chirurgii robotycznej. W Cornerstone Robotics zbudowaliśmy silne zaplecze dzięki własnym pracom badawczo-rozwojowym obejmującym cały stos technologiczny oraz integracji pionowej, co pozwala nam stale rozwijać kluczowe technologie robotyki chirurgicznej. Partnerstwo z Medtronic daje nam możliwość dalszego przyspieszenia prac i zwiększenia ich skali, aby korzyści z chirurgii robotycznej mogły trafić do większej liczby chirurgów i pacjentów na całym świecie".

„Inwestycja i umowa dystrybucyjna zwiększają możliwości Medtronic w zakresie dalszego poszerzania dostępu do chirurgii małoinwazyjnej dla pacjentów na całym świecie. Cieszymy się, że możemy zapewnić większy wybór w obszarze robotyki, a Sentire stanowi uzupełnienie naszej platformy Hugo" - powiedział Matt Anderson, Senior Vice President i President działu rozwiązań chirurgicznych w Medtronic.

Partnerstwo jest ważnym etapem dla obu firm, które wspólnie realizują misję zwiększania dostępności chirurgii robotycznej na świecie.

Doradcy

Kancelarie Kirkland & Ellis oraz Global Law Office doradzają Cornerstone Robotics w kwestiach prawnych. Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC jest wyłącznym doradcą finansowym Medtronic, a Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton LLP pełni funkcję głównego doradcy prawnego.

Cornerstone Robotics

Cornerstone Robotics, założona i mająca siedzibę w Hongkongu, jest innowacyjną firmą z branży robotyki chirurgicznej, która realizuje wizję tworzenia innowacji medycznych na rzecz zdrowszego świata.

The new shuttle transforms how visitors access the park, and simplifies access to the most visited areas

MOAB, Utah, Sept. 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Moab, Utah has announced a new, free shuttle system, launching today, offering visitors an alternative to driving to the park's most popular hikes, and helping to create an easy way to skip the line and forego parking altogether. The shuttle will operate as a pilot program through October 31, 2026, then resume March 1 through June 30, 2027.

The new, optional shuttle service includes two routes: an intra-park option connecting Arches Visitor Center with The Windows and Delicate Arch, and a downtown route connecting the Visitor Center with four stops in Moab — the Transit Hub, Moab Rock Shop, Moab Information Center and Maverick Gas.

Visitors can find parking independently in downtown Moab and walk to any of the four shuttle stops, or park at easily accessible Lions Park. Alternatively, guests can drive directly to the Arches Visitor Center and connect to the intra-park route.

Shuttles will run daily beginning at 8:00 a.m., operating at 15- to 30-minute intervals. The last shuttle from the Delicate Arch Trailhead leaves at 4:05 p.m., and the final departure from the Arches Visitor Center, returning to town, is at 5:10 p.m.

The shuttle is entirely free to ride. Visitors must purchase a National Park pass ahead of time, which will be checked by the driver at pickup locations. Passes can be purchased online or at the Moab Information Center.

Zepp Health Corporation Reports Second Quarter of 2026 Unaudited Financial Results

MILPITAS, Calif., Sept. 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Zepp Health Corporation (NYSE: ZEPP) ("Zepp", the "Company" or "we") today announced its unaudited financial results for the second quarter of 2026.

Second Quarter of 2026 Financial and Operating Highlights:

- Revenue reached US$63.5 million, representing year-over-year growth of 6.9%.

- Gross margin was 37.4%, an increase of 1.2 percentage points from the second quarter of 2025. The improvement was primarily driven by a more favorable product mix and growing contribution from higher-value products, partially offset by higher memory and other component costs.

- Net loss attributable to Zepp was US$11.3 million, compared with US$7.7 million in the same period of 2025. The benefits of higher revenue and improved gross margin were offset by foreign-exchange headwinds and increased investment in research and development, marketing and brand building.

- As of June 30, 2026, cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash totaled US$106.3 million, compared with US$95.3 million a year earlier and US$103.2 million as of March 31, 2026, primarily reflecting improved working-capital management.

- During the quarter, the Company launched new products or expanded its portfolio across multiple major product families, including professional running, Hybrid Training, entry-level smartwatches and screen-free fitness and health wearables.

Management Comments:

Wayne Huang, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Zepp Health, commented, "Our growth in the second quarter was measured rather than explosive. More importantly, the quality of our growth and the structure of our product portfolio continued to improve. Even before several new products had completed their production ramp and channel deployment, and despite supply continuing to constrain certain high-demand areas, we returned to year-over-year revenue growth and improved gross margin by 1.2 percentage points.

Several product families provide clear evidence of this structural progress. At U.S. suggested retail prices, T-Rex 3 Pro and T-Rex Ultra 2 are priced at approximately US$399 and US$549, respectively. Across global activations, these higher-end models continued to represent approximately 50% of the T-Rex family, demonstrating sustained consumer acceptance of our higher-end products and price ladder.

Active series has established a US$169 price tier that did not exist in the comparable period last year. This tier increased from approximately 22% of global Active family activations in the first quarter to approximately 40% in the second quarter, and reached approximately 57% through August 25, 2026. After Bip supply recovered, global monthly activations of the Active family remained broadly comparable with those of Bip in both July and August to date. This underscores that we have established meaningful scale in the US$100 to US$200 price band.

Balance is beginning to demonstrate how our long-term investment in Hybrid Training can translate into higher-value product demand. Compared with Balance 2 at a U.S. suggested retail price of US$299, the new Balance generation extends from US$369 to US$599. Despite this meaningful increase in price, total global Balance family (Balance 2 and 3 series) activations in July increased by more than one-third from the monthly average in the second quarter, while activations of earlier-generation products remained relatively stable. The new generation is therefore adding to the family rather than simply replacing earlier products. Balance remains at an early stage of growth and has not yet reached the scale we believe the family can ultimately achieve.

These positive indicators have not yet translated into their full revenue potential. T-Rex currently represents a story of sustained higher-end mix rather than rapid unit growth. Balance has only begun to establish growth momentum. Bip and Helio Strap were constrained by supply during the second quarter, while Cheetah and Helio Strap Pro remain at earlier stages of professional credibility and market development. The financial contribution of these product families is therefore developing at different speeds.

Bip supply has now recovered. Seventeen months after its launch, demand for Bip 6 remains very strong following the restoration of supply, while Bip Max has established a meaningful higher price tier within the family. Supported by sustained consumer demand, a more complete product structure, and the continued software evolution enabled by our in-house processor platform and Zepp OS, we are announcing today that we will increase prices across the entire Bip family beginning in January 2027. Our objective is to improve pricing discipline and unit economics while preserving a compelling consumer value proposition over a longer product lifecycle.

Demand for Helio Strap also exceeded available supply during the second quarter. We expect supply to recover partially during the third quarter and to be fully restored during the fourth quarter. As availability improves, we expect Helio Strap to make a more meaningful contribution to our screen-free fitness, training and recovery ecosystem."

Leon Deng, Chief Financial Officer of Zepp Health, commented, "The year-over-year improvement in gross margin, despite higher memory and other component costs, demonstrates that the shift in our product mix is beginning to yield tangible financial benefits. At the same time, foreign-exchange headwinds and continued investment in research and development, marketing and brand building affected profitability during the second quarter.

We will remain disciplined in managing our expenses and cash, while working to expand the contribution of higher-value products, restore supply where demand remains strong, and progressively convert product-mix improvements into stronger revenue growth, healthier unit economics and operating leverage. With our cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash balance of US$106.3 million at the end of the quarter, we are well positioned to continue executing our long-term product and brand strategy."

Third Quarter of 2026 Outlook:

Based on the information currently available, management expects third-quarter 2026 net revenues to be between US$68.0 million and US$73.0 million. In the third quarter of 2025, revenue increased 78.5% year over year to US$75.8 million, creating a high comparison base.

Product mix and consumer demand continued to improve during July and August. However, normal production ramp, supply-recovery and channel-deployment cycles mean that these developments will not be fully reflected in reported revenue immediately. The Company's third-quarter guidance incorporates this timing.

Second Quarter of 2026 Financial Results

Revenues

Revenues for the second quarter of 2026 reached US$63.5 million, an increase by 6.9% from the second quarter of 2025. The year-over-year sales increase was mainly driven by new product launches in the first half of 2026, including the Active 3 Premium, Active Max, and Cheetah models, while second-quarter sales were partially impacted by the new product launch timings and supply availability of the Balance 3 series.

Gross Margin

Gross margin in the second quarter of 2026 was 37.4%, an increase from 36.2% in the same period of 2025. During the quarter, margin performance faced several headwinds, including rising memory costs and RMB appreciation. On a year-over-year basis, margin expansion was primarily driven by an improved product mix from new product launches, though this was partially offset by higher memory component prices. Gross margin moderated from 37.7% in the first quarter of 2026, as mix benefits from new products were largely offset by increased memory costs, while supply constraints further constrained margin accretion.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses in the second quarter of 2026 were US$11.5 million, compared with US$11.2 million and US$13.1 million in the second quarter of 2025 and first quarter of 2026. Excluding US$0.7 million foreign currency headwinds, research and development expenses were slightly lower than the same period of 2025. We continued to invest in a series of cutting-edge products as well as new technologies, including AI, to maintain our competitive edge against our peers. At the same time, we focused on refined research and development approaches, consistently evaluating resource efficiency to optimize return on investment and productivity.

Selling and Marketing Expenses

Selling and marketing expenses in the second quarter of 2026 were US$18.3 million, compared with US$12.1 million and US$16.6 million in the second quarter of 2025 and first quarter of 2026. The US$6.2 million year-over-year increase was primarily driven by US$2.9 million in new product launch campaigns and US$1.6 million in e-commerce platform charges, which increased in line with top-line growth. The remaining increase reflected US$0.7 million in sponsorships for new athletes, US$0.5 million related to the HYROX partnership, and US$0.5 million in physical retail and event booth activations.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses were US$6.2 million in the second quarter of 2026, compared with US$4.4 million and US$7.4 million in the second quarter of 2025 and first quarter of 2026. Out of the year-over-year increase of US$1.8 million, substantially all was due to foreign currency headwinds. We continued to streamline overhead, maintaining disciplined cost control while improving operating efficiency.

Operating Expenses

GAAP and adjusted operating expenses[1] for the second quarter of 2026 were US$36.0 million and US$34.8 million, compared with US$27.6 million and US$26.4 million in the second quarter of 2025, and US$37.1 million and US$35.7 million in the first quarter of 2026. Out of the year-over-year increase of US$8.

The article explains how blue light glasses may reduce digital eye strain and outlines practical habits to support daily eye comfort.

FLORENCE, Ky., Sept. 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Do blue light glasses really make a difference for people spending long hours on digital devices? A recent HelloNation article by Andrea Hill of Arnett Vision Care provides clear insights into the myths and facts surrounding these glasses. As screen times increase across workplaces, schools, and even at home, questions about how to prevent eye strain have become more critical than ever.

The HelloNation article notes that many people assume blue light glasses are simply a trend with no proven value. Andrea Hill explains that, while they are not a cure for vision conditions, they can still provide relief for individuals who work at a computer throughout the day. Patients in Florence often report less irritation, fewer headaches, and more comfort when using them consistently.

Blue light comes from natural sources, but exposure is much higher when spending long periods in front of computer screens. The article makes clear that digital devices have created new challenges for eye care. Symptoms such as dryness, blurred vision, and fatigue are common signs of computer vision syndrome, which often develops after extended time working at a computer. Blue light glasses help alleviate these symptoms, mainly when used in conjunction with other treatment options.

Andrea Hill emphasizes that glasses alone are not enough. Following the 20-20-20 rule, where individuals take breaks every 20 minutes to look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds, can also prevent eye strain. This minor adjustment can help reduce discomfort and protect sensitive eyes from prolonged exposure to bright light. Adding artificial tears when needed can help with dryness, while adjusting the eye level of a screen can reduce strain on the neck and shoulders.

The HelloNation feature also explains that while blue light glasses help many people, they cannot correct refractive errors or replace prescription lenses. For patients who already need vision correction, digital eye exams are recommended to ensure that underlying health problems are not overlooked. Comprehensive eye care may include prescription glasses, contact lenses, or other treatments beyond blue light protection.

Computer screens have become a part of nearly every job, from classrooms to offices to healthcare settings. The HelloNation article highlights that in Florence, KY, patients who are sensitive to light during long workdays often find that blue light glasses provide enough relief to finish the day more comfortably. For many people, this simple solution helps balance the demands of modern work with better eye health.

Andrea Hill makes it clear that no single product is a complete answer. While blue light glasses are not a cure, they can reduce the intensity of strain caused by screen time. When combined with healthy habits such as taking breaks, adjusting lighting, and using the right prescription if needed, patients have more control over their comfort while working at a computer. This combined approach helps prevent eye strain before it develops into a larger health issue.

The article emphasizes the importance of managing expectations. Blue light glasses are not designed to solve every vision concern. They cannot replace medical advice, digital eye exams, or necessary prescription lenses. Instead, they should be seen as one of several treatment options to ease discomfort from prolonged computer use. By focusing on both prevention and relief, patients can make wise choices about eye care that fit into their daily routines.

Andrea Hill's message is that myths about blue light glasses should not distract from their real benefits. They will not eliminate all eye concerns, but they are also not just another passing trend. By offering practical comfort and reducing some of the effects of computer vision syndrome, they have earned a place in today's eye care strategies.

Readers can explore more by viewing the full HelloNation article, "Myth vs. Fact: Do Blue Light Glasses Really Help?". In it, Andrea Hill of Arnett Vision Care in Florence, KY, shares practical guidance on eye care, screen times, and ways to prevent eye strain in today's digital world.
