Accessibility Services, Inc. Launches BT RemoteSwitch Nurse Call Adapter

Published

Bluetooth device lets patients with severe mobility limitations call for help using the assistive technology they already use

HOMOSASSA, Fla., Aug. 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Accessibility Services, Inc. (ASI) today announced the launch of the BT RemoteSwitch, a Bluetooth nurse call adapter that gives patients with limited mobility a direct way to call for help without relying on someone else to notice or interpret their needs.

Traditional nurse call systems require patients to press physical buttons. That is a barrier for many people with high cervical spinal cord injuries, ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis), severe cerebral palsy or traumatic brain injury.

The BT RemoteSwitch pairs with a patient’s iPhone, iPad, Android phone or Android tablet and connects to standard nurse call infrastructure through a quarter-inch jack or standard hospital wall adapters. Patients call for help using tools they already know: TD Snap augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) software, Siri or Google Voice Access; a button or switch; or eye-tracking or head-tracking. Setup typically takes 10 to 15 minutes and requires no changes to facility infrastructure. The device supplements existing nurse call methods and safety protocols rather than replacing them.

“We started by asking patients what they needed,” said Brice Green, VP of Business Development at ASI. “Too many people with conditions like ALS or spinal cord injuries were locked out of basic independence.”

The BT RemoteSwitch serves hospitals, rehabilitation facilities, home care and senior living communities, and is typically set up by caregivers, Assistive Technology Specialists or Speech-Language Pathologists. The device is available now for purchase through ASI. The companion BT RemoteSwitch app is available on the Apple App Store and Google Play. Visit (https://go.asi-florida.com/C40xW6) or contact ASI to learn more or purchase.

ASI will debut the BT RemoteSwitch at the ALS Nexus Conference, hosted by The ALS Association, Aug. 23-26, 2026, at the Hyatt Regency Grand Cypress Resort in Orlando, Fla. Attendees can visit ASI in the Nexus Pavilion for a live demonstration and discuss hospital and home care configurations.

Dinto Solar Earns Thailand’s First Mandatory TISI Certification for HJT PV Module Makers

Published

on

By

BEIJING, Nov. 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Dinto Solar, a global pioneer in heterojunction (HJT) technology, has earned mandatory certification from the Thai Industrial Standards Institute (TISI) for its solar modules. The company is among the first photovoltaic (PV) module makers worldwide to qualify under Thailand’s new requirements and the first dedicated HJT module maker to receive the certification.

Thailand’s compulsory safety requirements for crystalline silicon PV modules took effect on October 30, 2026. Modules imported for sale must comply with the applicable Thai standard and be covered by a TISI license. The approval strengthens Dinto Solar’s readiness to serve local customers as regulatory compliance becomes essential to market access.

Certification was granted under TIS 61730 Part 2-2567, aligned with IEC 61730-2:2023, covering electrical insulation, fire safety and mechanical strength. TISI auditors inspected Dinto Solar’s manufacturing facilities in Longgang and Suining, China, reviewing quality management, production controls, supply chains and traceability. The company’s modules, developed and manufactured in-house, passed the assessment on the first application.

The certified portfolio spans 33 power ratings from 455 W to 770 W, supporting residential rooftops, commercial and industrial (C&I) installations and utility-scale solar plants. This range gives Thai developers and engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contractors greater flexibility in product selection and system design.

For businesses with limited rooftop space, HJT’s high efficiency supports greater power generation per square meter. Dinto Solar’s G12-132 module features a superior temperature coefficient of −0.24%/°C to limit heat-related power loss. Butyl sealing and coated dual glass further improve moisture resistance and durability, supporting reliable energy yield in Thailand’s hot, humid climate.

JJ Energy Company Limited, Dinto Solar’s exclusive partner in Thailand, holds the local import licenses. The companies’ 2026–2027 agreement, announced in September, includes an initial 30 MW order for G12-132 HJT modules for Thai C&I rooftops. Certification enables the partners to advance import arrangements, customs clearance and distribution in preparation for delivery.

With certified products and local market capabilities in place, Dinto Solar is strengthening its position in Thailand while expanding its presence across Southeast Asia. The company will continue working with regional partners to bring high-efficiency HJT solutions to more projects, focusing on reliable performance, long-term energy yield and customer value.

BEIJING, Nov. 8, 2026 /CNW/ — On November 6, media representatives from various countries and regions visited Xiaomi’s smart auto factory in southeast Beijing, exploring firsthand Xiaomi’s achievements in NEV R&D, intelligent manufacturing and ecosystem innovation.

After the tour, Marcos Costa de Oliveira, editor-in-chief of Brazil’s Monitor Mercantil newspaper, said he is a lover of Xiaomi stuff, and Xiaomi cars are beautifully designed and useful too.

Xiaomi’s greatest advantage is its ability to combine innovative technology, attractive design and impressive performance, said Tamas Kovacs, CEO of ATV Hungary.

Covering an area of approximately 718,000 square meters, the factory is a modern smart manufacturing campus for Xiaomi NEVs that integrates R&D, production, sales and customer experience.

The factory has upgraded traditional auto-making processes to six tailored to NEV production, with 100 percent automation achieved in key processes. More than 700 robots work in coordination across the production lines while artificial intelligence (AI) technologies are employed to significantly improve quality inspection accuracy.

“I was particularly impressed by the extensive use of robotics, automation and artificial intelligence throughout the manufacturing process,” said Kovacs. “Xiaomi’s manufacturing capabilities demonstrate China’s remarkable progress in industrial innovation.”

The interactive demonstration of Xiaomi’s human×car×home smart ecosystem was another highlight of the tour. The ecosystem allows users to remotely control smart home devices directly from their vehicles through voice commands or preset scenarios, enabling seamless connectivity across different living scenarios.

Yasiru Bandara Ranaraja, founding director of Belt & Road Initiative Sri Lanka, said Xiaomi is very innovative and gives the whole solution of the car for controlling all electronics.

Such ecosystem is one of the most innovative achievements of Xiaomi, said Kovacs. “I believe this integrated approach represents an important direction for the future of transportation.”

When asked about Xiaomi’s plan to go global, many guests expressed hopes to see Xiaomi vehicles sold in their own countries. Agnes Kalekye Nguna, CEO of Kenya Broadcasting Corporation, said NEV plays a significant role in environmental conservation and promoting utilization of clean energy in Africa. “Come to Africa, we are waiting for you!”

The tour was one of the events held during the 7th World Media Summit running on November 5-9 in Beijing, which gathered nearly 500 guests from mainstream media, think tanks, government departments and international organizations across 112 countries and regions.
