GRANITE BAY, Calif., Sept. 24, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — REVIVER®, the pioneering manufacturer of the first and only legal digital license plate in the world (the RPLATE®), is proud to announce its participation as a founding company in the LiDAR Saving Lives Public Safety Coalition’s (LSL) groundbreaking 9-1-1 Dispatcher Visibility Demonstration Project. This vital initiative aims to improve post-crash care by leveraging advanced technology integrated into the REVIVER® platform to provide real-time visual context to 9-1-1 dispatchers and first responders.

REVIVER® Joins Forces with ROADMEDIC® and SENSAGRATE in LiDAR Saving Lives Public Safety Coalition

In collaboration with ROADMEDIC®, a leader in automotive emergency communication systems, and SENSAGRATE, a provider of intelligent visual sensor technology, REVIVER® will become the gateway to democratizing vehicle safety for virtually all year, make, and model vehicles by integrating real-time data transmission and visual context into the Next Generation 911 (NG911) system via the REVIVER® RPLATE® platform. This integration will enable 9-1-1 dispatchers to receive critical information, including images and videos, from motorists in roadside emergencies. This enhanced situational awareness will significantly improve the accuracy and speed of emergency responses, improving incident victim outcomes and ultimately saving lives.

“REVIVER’s goal is to utilize digital license plates to modernize vehicle registration compliance and to leverage developing technologies to help save lives,” said Neville Boston, Founder and Chief Strategy Officer of REVIVER®. “By combining REVIVER’s RPLATE digital license plate technology and companion APP with the expertise of ROADMEDIC® and SENSAGRATE, we are realizing our vision. REVIVER will be setting a new standard for emergency response via direct vehicle connectivity. Our involvement in the LiDAR Saving Lives Public Safety Coalition’s 9-1-1 Dispatcher Visibility Demonstration Project reflects our commitment to advancing safety on our roads and enhancing post-crash care.”

The 9-1-1 Dispatcher Visibility Demonstration Project will showcase the world’s first end-to-end, real-time infrastructure-to-everything (I2X) communication system. This system integrates collision detection, IP-based 9-1-1 data transmission, and real-time visual context, providing first responders with unprecedented insight into roadside emergencies. The project is set to play a pivotal role in the evolution of NG911, making emergency services more effective and responsive to the needs of motorists. Additional connected safety collaborations are expected to be announced shortly that will include solutions to increase driver awareness of local first-responder activities to reduce the occurrence of secondary incidents.

As part of REVIVER®’s ongoing commitment to safety innovation, REVIVER® will participate in the panel session entitled “911’s Role in the Connected Safe System Approach” at the upcoming COVESA All Member Meeting, taking place September 25-26, 2024, in Novi, Michigan. This session will bring together industry leaders to discuss the critical role of 9-1-1 in the evolving connected vehicle ecosystem, with a focus on improving post-crash care through advanced technology and cross-industry collaboration.

LEAP Group Relaunches HumanView, a Growth Intelligence System Built to Explain Why Customers Behave the Way They Do

Published

By

Reimagined from the ground up, HumanView pairs statistical modeling with expert analysts to turn millions of real-world customer signals into business decisions

LOUISVILLE, Ky., Oct. 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — LEAP Group today announced the relaunch of HumanView, its growth intelligence service. The new version has been rebuilt from the ground up and now has a dedicated home at leapgroupnetwork.com/humanview.

HumanView analyzes what customers say and do across social platforms, e-commerce sites, review platforms, search behavior and user-generated content, including signals from Reddit, TikTok, YouTube, Meta, Amazon and Walmart+ that general AI tools cannot always access. Because the data reflects unprompted, real-world behavior, it avoids the response bias built into surveys and focus groups.

The service works in three layers. HumanView captures signals at scale, decodes millions of records through validated statistical models such as regression, correlation and clustering, and then relies on experienced analysts to interpret the patterns. Clients receive clear, human-validated insights instead of another dashboard.

“Machines find the patterns. Humans find the point,” said Alan Gilleo, CEO at LEAP Group. “The first version of HumanView showed us how much customers reveal when nobody is asking them questions. This version is built to explain why they act the way they do, and to put those answers in front of everyone making decisions, from product to service to marketing.”

HumanView focuses on three areas:

Growth Intelligence: customer motivations and how people perceive a brand and its competitors

Market and Category Intelligence: product pain points, service friction, unmet needs and competitive gaps

Audience Intelligence: new segments, positioning opportunities and gaps in the market

Every model is designed and validated by data scientists and benchmarked before it informs a recommendation.

STEPHEN A. SMITH ADDRESSES WHITE HOUSE DINNER ATTENDANCE, REAFFIRMS COMMITMENT TO HBCUs AND PROTECTING CORPORATE INVESTMENT IN BLACK EDUCATION

Published

By

NEW YORK, Oct. 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Stephen A. Smith, media mogul, New York Times bestselling author, and proud 1991 graduate of Winston-Salem State University, is addressing the public discussion surrounding his decision to attend a White House dinner with President Donald Trump, emphasizing his commitment to the long-term financial stability of Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs).

For Smith, the decision was rooted in a commitment to institutions that have educated generations of Black leaders, professionals, entrepreneurs, and public servants.

“I will always advocate for HBCUs and the students whose futures depend on them,” Smith said. “My reason for attending the White House dinner was to discuss the challenges these institutions face in securing long-term funding and to make the case that corporate America must continue to invest in them.”

Smith acknowledged federal support through the FUTURE Act while expressing concern that political tensions surrounding diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) could discourage private companies from supporting HBCUs. He maintains that these institutions deserve sustained corporate partnerships, philanthropic contributions, and public investment.

“If we truly believe in free-market capitalism, businesses should be able to support educational institutions and charitable causes without fear of criticism or repercussions,” Smith said. “HBCUs have made extraordinary contributions to this country. They deserve sustained public and private investment.”

Ashley Christopher, Esq., Founder and CEO of the HBCU Week Foundation, recognized Smith’s advocacy and decision to engage with the administration.

“Stephen A. Smith has been a powerful advocate for HBCUs, using his platform and influence to shine a national spotlight on our institutions,” expressed Christopher, “His continued support of HBCU Week helps advance our mission of connecting students with life-changing educational opportunities, and we are proud to have him as our ambassador.”

Since Smith became an HBCU Week Ambassador in 2019, the initiative has facilitated more than 15,000 on-the-spot college acceptances and raised and awarded more than $150 million in scholarships, according to the HBCU Week Foundation.

As public discussion continues, Smith is emphasizing the importance of ensuring HBCUs have the resources and partnerships needed to educate future generations and expand opportunities for students.
