Rosenxt’s water-line integrity tech comes to North America for the first time

Published

on

Insight Water Technologies partners with Rosenxt USA to bring the Rosenxt Linegy water line integrity portfolio—advanced inline inspection and asset integrity solutions—to North American water systems for the first time.

PHOENIX, July 10, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Insight Water Technologies (IWT), a Phoenix-based provider of high-resolution condition assessment solutions for pressurized water transmission mains, today announced a commercial agreement with Rosenxt USA to represent its Rosenxt Linegy portfolio across North America. The portfolio — a suite of inline inspection and asset integrity management solutions for water lines — will be available in the region for the first time.

Through this collaboration, IWT and Rosenxt are bringing the full Rosenxt Linegy portfolio to the continent for the first time.

Under the agreement, effective June 8, 2026, IWT has been appointed as Rosenxt USA Inc.’s independent sales representative for selected Rosenxt Linegy water line integrity offerings. Rosenxt may also act as IWT’s preferred subcontractor for water line integrity products and services on selected projects, delivering those services exclusively through Rosenxt’s proprietary technologies, proven methodologies, and technical expertise.

The collaboration pairs Rosenxt Linegy’s inspection and asset integrity capabilities with IWT’s industry knowledge and long-standing relationships, introducing the Rosenxt full portfolio to engineering firms, water and wastewater utilities asset owners. IWT will serve as the North American representative for Rosenxt Linegy.

Rosenxt is backed by decades of engineering and inspection experience. The company was launched in 2023 by Hermann Rosen, founder of the ROSEN Group, a pipeline inspection company that grew over four decades into a global leader spanning more than two-thirds of the world’s oil and gas pipelines. Rosenxt’s Linegy portfolio combines advanced inspection capabilities, integrity engineering, and data-driven assessment methods for pressurized water lines. The technologies are developed and validated through dedicated testing and operational experience before being deployed in the field.

Myron Shenkiryk, CEO of Insight Water Technologies, saw the Rosenxt operation firsthand before the collaboration was finalized. “What sets Rosenxt apart isn’t just the sophistication of what they’ve built — it’s the infrastructure behind how they build it,” said Shenkiryk. “This is a company where R&D isn’t a department; it’s the entire culture. That’s exactly the kind of partner we were looking for, and exactly what North American utilities deserve.”

“This collaboration brings together Rosenxt’s integrity and inspection expertise with IWT’s deep understanding of the North American water and wastewater market. It enables us to help asset owners and operators better understand the complex challenges facing their critical infrastructure and address them with tailored solutions. By turning advanced inspection data into actionable insight, we support better-informed decisions about the condition, reliability, and long-term performance of water infrastructure,” said Chris Yoxall, CEO Realization at Rosenxt. “IWT’s well-established expertise and decades of relationships with municipalities and engineering firms make them the right choice to introduce our capabilities to the North American market.”

North American utilities face growing pressure to address aging transmission main infrastructure, and demand for reliable inline inspection has never been greater.

The collaboration is based on a commercial agreement between two independent companies. IWT and Rosenxt USA will each continue to operate as separate legal entities and remain responsible for their own operations. The agreement does not create a joint venture or merger.

The X By XREAL a01+ is a purpose-built, mainstream entertainment device designed to work with the phones, laptops, and handheld consoles people already own – all without sacrificing the picture quality XREAL is known for. At just 62 grams, the glasses use dual-layer Micro-OLED displays capable of up to 1,600 nits of peak brightness with HDR10 support, paired with real-time SDR-to-HDR conversion. This ensures content looks sharper and more vibrant on the fly. A custom display chip and XREAL’s ARView Image Engine drive a 120Hz refresh rate, while a proprietary spatial stabilization algorithm tracks micro-movements to keep the picture steady, even in motion.

“Where XREAL’s flagship lines push the frontier of spatial computing, X By XREAL was created to make AR glasses feel more accessible, personal, and fun,” said Chi Xu, co-founder and CEO of XREAL. “With a01+, we’re bringing XREAL’s industry leading display technology, comfort, and optical engineering expertise into a lighter, more affordable product built for entertainment, gaming, and everyday use. This is an important step toward making big-screen AR something anyone can experience.”

Positioned as a “pocket cinema,” the a01+ delivers a virtual screen equivalent to 147 inches at 4 meters, giving commuters, travelers and everyday users a big-screen experience anywhere. On the gaming side, the device’s “Just Play” approach lets users turn their smartphone, laptop, or handheld console into an immersive display in seconds, offering a 50° FoV and 120Hz refresh rate.

Comfort at the core

Designed for everyday use and personal expression, the a01+ can accommodate interchangeable front frames. Additionally, it has a lighter silhouette built to feel as approachable as it is portable.

By design, the a01+ does not include a built-in camera, keeping the glasses lighter and more focused on the core viewing experience.

Echoes of Courage: The Living History of Luding Bridge

Published

on

By

BEIJING, July 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — A news report from China.org.cn on an international group retracing the Luding Bridge crossing and sharing their reflections on the enduring legacy of the Long March through global communication.

 

“Were they human beings or madmen or gods?”

That was the question American journalist Edgar Snow captured in “Red Star Over China,” reflecting the awe of the opposing troops who tried to hold the bridge against Red Army soldiers in a desperate battle nearly 90 years ago.

The answer lies right here, at Luding Bridge.

In May 1935, only 13 iron chains stood between the Red Army and survival. Twenty-two of its soldiers volunteered to lead the way across. Behind them stood an entire army; ahead lay a hail of enemy gunfire; below, the roaring Dadu River.

Snow later recorded this dramatic episode in his book “Red Star Over China.”

The battle — the heroic seizing of Luding Bridge — was a key episode in the Long March, a 12,500-kilometer trek the Red Army undertook from 1934 to 1936 to break through enemy encirclement.

By the time they reached the Dadu River, they had been marching for months. But this river loomed as the ultimate barrier to their path north. Luding Bridge became their only viable hope. Losing it could have ended the Long March.

Defying overwhelming odds, they crossed under a hail of fire. The victory paved the way north and became one of the defining moments of the Long March.

Today, Luding Bridge is welcoming people from around the world.

As a major stop on the Sichuan leg of China International Communications Group (CICG)’s “Together on the Long March” international communication project, Luding Bridge welcomes participants from around the world as they retrace the Long March, revisit the places where history unfolded, and explore why this journey continues to inspire people today.

Like Zhavier Harris, marketing and communications manager at Springfield Urban League, observed, the battle was “a direct reflection of the resilience of the Red Army soldiers.” Learning how they survived on hardened rice while drenched in rain, sweat and blood, then crossed the swaying iron chains under enemy fire while looking after their comrades, gave him “an even deeper appreciation of their courage and determination.”

Television presenter Iain Inglis said, “The 22 people… were all in their early twenties,” he said. “They had the future before them, but despite that, they were willing to lay down their lives.” Inglis said he “could not have imagined having to face something like that.”

That feeling was shared by Sky Gommeren, a student at California State University, Northridge.

“A lot of the soldiers were probably around my age,” he said. “I’ve never had anything close to this kind of experience.” Living in peacetime, he said, made him appreciate even more the sacrifices made by those who fought for what they believed was an important cause.

For Elsbeth van Paridon, a foreign expert and sinologist at CICG, preserving places like Luding Bridge matters because “it’s keeping history alive, and their stories are still being told.”

More than 90 years later, the bridge still stands. But everything around it has changed.

The battlefields are now peaceful villages. The rugged mountain roads have become highways and tunnels.

Along the Dadu River, communities are building a new future through eco-tourism, agriculture and their historical legacy.

In Lengqi Town, revolutionary heritage and green development are now intertwined. Visitors come not only to honor the past but also to experience the beauty and vitality of today’s Luding.

Standing here today, it’s impossible not to admire the courage it took to cross this bridge.

But perhaps the real legacy of Luding Bridge isn’t just the battle itself.

It’s the belief that even in the hardest moments, people can still find a way forward.

Tineco Explores Why Cleaning Under Furniture Remains a Common Household Challenge

Published

on

By

Low-clearance furniture has become an increasingly common household cleaning challenge, driving demand for solutions that can clean more effectively. Tineco is exploring why cleaning under furniture remains a common household challenge.

SEATTLE, July 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — As modern homes increasingly feature low-profile furniture and minimalist interior layouts, cleaning beneath sofas, beds and cabinets has become one of the most overlooked challenges in everyday floor care. While open floor areas are generally easy to clean, low-clearance spaces often require users to interrupt their routine, change cleaning angles or leave those areas untouched altogether.

Unlike large floor areas, these spaces are difficult not because of their size, but because of their accessibility. Many homeowners are reluctant to move heavy furniture or kneel down to reach underneath it during routine cleaning. As a result, dust, hair and everyday debris can gradually accumulate in places that are difficult to see and even more difficult to reach.

The Tineco FLOOR ONE S7 Stretch Ultra was built to address this everyday challenge. Its lay-flat stretch engineering allows the cleaner to reach beneath furniture and other low-clearance spaces without disrupting the overall cleaning routine. Combined with its vacuum-and-wash functionality, users can tackle both wet and dry messes in a single step, while the DualBlock Anti-Tangle Design helps reduce hair wrap for more consistent performance. Rather than treating hard-to-reach areas as a separate task, the FLOOR ONE S7 Stretch Ultra helps keep them part of the same cleaning flow, making it easier to clean the entire room with fewer interruptions.

The Tineco FLOOR ONE S7 Stretch Ultra is available through Tineco U.S. and select retail partners.

About Tineco

Tineco (“tin-co”) was founded in 1998 with its first product launch as a vacuum cleaner and, in 2019, pioneered the first-ever smart vacuum. Today, the brand has evolved into a global leader in intelligent appliances spanning floor care, kitchen, and personal care categories. With a growing user base of over 24 million households and availability in approximately 30 countries worldwide, Tineco remains committed to its brand vision of making life easier through smart technology and continuous innovation.
