SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Mobvoi Inc., the company behind the popular Wear OS–powered TicWatch line and TicNote, today unveiled TicNote Pods, the world’s first 4G-connected AI note-taking earbuds, debuting now on Kickstarter. Designed for professionals, students, and creators who need to stay focused and organized in a fast-moving world, TicNote Pods combine seamless connectivity with advanced on-device intelligence. Unlike traditional AI recorders that only capture external sound, TicNote Pods record both your environment and the voices transmitted through your earbuds, ensuring complete and reliable audio capture anywhere.

Combining premium wireless audio with built-in 4G connectivity and next-generation AI, TicNote Pods redefine how people capture and recall conversations — automatically recording, transcribing, and summarizing everything from meetings and lectures to phone calls and interviews, and syncing to the cloud without the help of a phone.

With built-in 4G eSIM, TicNote Pods deliver notes and summaries up to 50% faster than traditional connections, helping users save time and stay efficient. They can also operate independently from Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, allowing recordings and uploads to continue even when a phone isn’t nearby. Conversations are captured through dual-microphone arrays and processed by Shadow AI — TicNote’s intelligent meeting agent that automatically transcribes, summarizes, and organizes discussions into actionable notes within minutes.

“We designed TicNote Pods to give people the freedom to be fully present,” said Zhifei Li, CEO of Mobvoi and former Google scientist. “Whether you’re in a phone call, a meeting, or a coffee chat, TicNote Pods quietly handle everything — recording, transcribing, and organizing so you can stay focused on what matters.”

NEWPORT BEACH, Calif., Dec. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Medit, a global leader in 3D intraoral scanning and digital dentistry solutions, today announced the launch of AuraVue, a next-generation visualization and consultation platform that integrates Overjet’s AI technology to deliver real-time diagnostic insights and clearer patient communication.

With AuraVue, clinicians can now view 3D intraoral scans and X-rays side by side in one interactive workspace. By combining Medit’s 3D imaging with Overjet’s AI-powered radiographic analysis, AuraVue transforms diagnostic data into clear, visual storytelling that helps patients understand their conditions and treatment plans.

“Most patients understand best when they can see what’s happening,” said Michael Lee, chief technology officer of Medit. “AuraVue transforms diagnostics into a visual story—helping patients better understand their oral health in seconds and empowering clinicians to communicate with confidence.”

For example, a traditional bitewing can reveal decay, distance to the pulp, bone loss, and existing restorations. AuraVue brings that to life by pairing it with a corresponding 3D scan that shows soft tissue, inflammation, cracks, occlusion, discoloration, and wear—all in the same visual frame. The result is a clear, image-backed treatment plan that helps boost case acceptance and strengthen patient trust.

“AuraVue is a strong example of how technology can advance patient-centered care. By combining Medit’s leadership in intra-oral scanning with Overjet’s clinical AI, we’re giving clinicians a clearer, more complete view of oral health than ever before. When patients can see and understand their conditions in real time, trust grows, decisions become easier, and care improves. We’re proud to partner with Medit to make that experience accessible to every practice,” said Wardah Inam, CEO, Overjet.

With AI-powered insights from Overjet, clinicians can simply highlight an area of concern and instantly view the corresponding X-ray with diagnostic information displayed side-by-side. Additionally, AuraVue can generate a one-click summary report for easy sharing, whether with patients, referring practitioners, or for insurance claim submissions.

AuraVue runs entirely on the cloud, requiring no installation, local storage, or additional set-up. Users can get started immediately by importing X-rays without having to install Overjet separately.

To celebrate its launch, Medit is offering a limited-time introductory promotion for AuraVue. For information on how to take advantage of this offer, visit the Medit website for more details.

Medit is a global provider of 3D intraoral scanners and digital dentistry solutions based on proprietary technology. The company supports collaborative workflows between dental clinics and labs through innovative hardware and software solutions. Headquartered in Seoul, South Korea, since 2000, Medit has a strong global presence through its offices in the Americas and Europe and a distributor network spanning over 100 countries.

Disclaimer: AuraVue is a patient consultation and communication application that displays diagnostic results generated by Overjet.ai (FDA approved) software. AuraVue does not analyze, interpret, or provide diagnoses.

Anniversary publication marks long-term SME support for diversified development

MACAO, Dec. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Sands China celebrated the 10th anniversary of its Local Small, Medium and Micro Suppliers Support Programme with a ceremony Tuesday at The Londoner Macao^®, together with the launch of a 10th anniversary booklet showcasing the programme’s success stories. The event also featured the 2025 Sands Supplier Excellence Awards to honour outstanding suppliers, appreciation certificates to recognise long-term suppliers, and a cocktail and business networking session to further connect local businesses and company representatives for future cooperation opportunities.

The Local SME Suppliers Support Programme: A Decade of SME Empowerment

As the largest integrated tourism and leisure enterprise in Macao, Sands China has long championed a development model that enables large and small businesses to thrive together, introducing a variety of effective measures to foster the steady growth of SMEs. The Local Small, Medium and Micro Suppliers Support Programme, co-launched in 2015 with the Macao Chamber of Commerce, is a landmark programme under this vision.

The programme launched as Macao’s first SME-focused initiative led by a tourism and leisure enterprise, and targets three types of local businesses: small and micro suppliers, “Made in Macao” companies and Macao young entrepreneurs. It aims to support the Macao SAR government’s SME policies while further strengthening Sands China’s commitment to local business development. Its key projects include the F.I.T. programme, introduced in 2017, which provides financial support, invitational matching, as well as training and development to help local SME suppliers upskill and expand their business opportunities.

Since its inception, the programme has successfully deepened collaboration with local SMEs, generating remarkable results: a total of MOP 119.4 billion in procurement, with local procurement accounting for 83 percent, involving 4,700 SMEs.

Tuesday’s event unveiled the programme’s 10th anniversary booklet – outlining a decade of development and success stories – intended to inspire the city’s SMEs to attain greater achievements.

“SMEs are a vital pillar of Macao’s economy, securing the foundation of the city’s diversified industries,” said Grant Chum, chief executive officer and executive director of Sands China Ltd. “For more than 20 years, Sands China has remained committed to supporting the growth of local SMEs by leading the industry in prioritising local procurement, building promotional platforms for local businesses, and sharing our business expertise and experience to help them achieve independent development.

“In addition to recognising outstanding suppliers, we would also like to take this opportunity to honour and extend our heartfelt gratitude to our 40 long-term business partners. We sincerely thank the Liaison Office of the Central People’s Government in the Macao SAR, the Macao SAR Government, and all sectors of society for their longstanding guidance and support. We are likewise grateful for the enduring collaboration of the Macao Chamber of Commerce, whose dedication has helped numerous local SMEs grow from seedlings into flourishing enterprises. We look forward to continuing our partnership and achieving even greater shared successes in the years to come.”

Ma Chi Ngai, president of the board of directors of the Macao Chamber of Commerce, said: “Ten years ago, the Macao Chamber of Commerce partnered with Sands China to launch the local SME support programme, applying the philosophy of supporting the development of local SME suppliers and prioritising local procurement, opening a new chapter of symbiotic growth between integrated tourism and leisure enterprise and local SMEs. Through a series of innovative support measures, including large-scale exhibition platforms, professional training, and technical guidance, we have built a comprehensive support system to help SMEs enhance their capabilities. Together, we have faced market changes and challenges side by side, forming a cooperative ecosystem of complementary strengths and mutual benefit. Looking ahead, we will continue to support Macao SAR government in helping local SMEs explore new pathways in digital transformation, brand upgrading, and international expansion, contributing our efforts toward Macao’s economic diversification.”

At the event, Sands China executives presented certificates of appreciation to 40 SME partners – many of whom have worked with the company for over two decades. The certificates were presented by Dr. Wilfred Wong, executive vice chairman of Sands China Ltd.; Grant Chum; Dave Sun, executive vice president and chief financial officer of Sands China Ltd. and managing director of Venetian Macau Limited; and Norbert Riezler, senior vice president and chief procurement officer of Las Vegas Sands Corp.

2025 Sands Supplier Excellence Awards

The Sands Supplier Excellence Awards are an annual initiative of Las Vegas Sands Corp., acknowledging the cooperation and services of some of Sands’ most noteworthy suppliers worldwide. A judging committee composed of Sands China executive management selects Macao’s award recipients each year. At Tuesday’s ceremony, Sands China awarded seven winners:

• Corporate Culture & Sustainability:
  China Travel Service (Macao) Ltd

• Innovation:
  Tech (Macau) Limited

• Cost Management:
  Companhia de Obras de Decoracoes Wai Yun Lda.

  Anglo-East Trading Co. (HK) Limited

• Project Management:
  Vodatel Holdings Ltd

• Service Excellence:

• Small/Medium Enterprise (SME):

Guests at the event included: Sun Yaohua, director of the Economic Affairs Department of the Liaison Office of the Central People’s Government in the Macao SAR; Yau Yun Wah, director of the Economic and Technological Development Bureau of the Macao SAR government; Ma Chi Ngai; Victoria Kuan, director-general of the Macau Productivity and Technology Centre; Sam Lei, acting president of the Commerce and Investment Promotion Institute of the Macao Special Administrative Region; Paulo Coutinho, director and editor-in-chief of Macau Daily Times; and Lam Io Meng, deputy general manager of Macao Daily News.

Following the ceremony, a group of local enterprises joined a cocktail and business networking session to connect with representatives from various Sands China departments, including procurement and supply chain. Sessions like these over the years have enabled Sands China and local suppliers to explore and develop new mutually beneficial partnerships.

Sands China remains committed to prioritising local procurement and supporting the long-term growth of Macao’s SMEs, as an integral part of the company’s corporate social responsibility.

PARIS, Dec. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Clarins, the iconic family-owned global cosmetics group has launched its mobile app in partnership with long-standing digital partner Merkle, marking a new step forward in its direct-to-consumer acceleration.

Courtesy of Clarins

Following a highly successful pilot in the UK, the app is now available in the United States, Canada and Australia, with additional markets, including France, to follow shortly. Designed to deepen engagement with its loyal customers, the app introduces a seamless and intuitive shopping experience that supports Clarins’ growing subscription business and enhances its direct-to-consumer strategy – a first in the prestige beauty industry.

Unlocking a more advanced shopping journey for loyal customers

For 70 years, Clarins has built its growth on listening, advising, and staying close to its customers, both in institutes and points of sale. The Clarins app extends this relationship thanks to native features that better address customers’ expectations:

• Fast access to the full product offering;
• A simple and intuitive shopping journey;
• Persistent login and 1-click payment;
• Access to all Clarins digital services, including the AI Skin Observer and the generative-AI powered chatbot;
• Exclusive in-app offers;
• Push notifications to stay informed in real time about new products and exclusive offers.

During the pilot in the UK, nearly 30% of Clarins’ loyal customers adopted the app, which received a 4.7-star rating on the Apple App Store. A majority opted-in to receive push notifications about product news and exclusive offers, confirming the app as a preferred communication channel with the brand.

Built on Clarins’ existing e-commerce infrastructure, the app – available on iOS and Android – combines the flexibility of web technology with the performance of native features such as permanent login, one-click payment, and a product barcode scanner. This hybrid app development approach optimizes investments while delivering a premium user experience.

Clarins CEO, Jonathan Zrihen: “Direct relationships with our customers have been at the heart of Clarins’ story for 70 years. With this new mobile app, we are strengthening our ability to support them every day, wherever they are.

Merkle Global President, Peter Stein: “Clarins is an iconic beauty brand, and we’re proud to help them lead the way in redefining digital beauty experiences. While many retailers have embraced mobile apps, few beauty brands have fully tapped into this space – especially in the U.S., where the beauty and personal care market is projected to exceed $130 billion in 2025 (1). This app positions Clarins to capture that opportunity with a customer-first approach.”

Merkle UK CEO, Chris Freeland: “This app represents a new, high-impact channel for Clarins. It’s a testament to our strong partnership and shared focus on customer-centric, scalable solutions.”

The Clarins app is available for download on iOS and Android.

• Hyundai Mobis to participate in CES 2026 next month… hosting an invitation-only private booth to focus on new business opportunities
• To be showcased: M.VICS 7.0 cockpit integrated solution, X-by-Wire chassis integrated solution, next-generation displays, and more
• “Holographic Windshield Display” wins CES Innovation Award, highlighting Mobis’s display engineering prowess

SEOUL, South Korea, Dec. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — On the 9th, Hyundai Mobis announced that it will present more than 30 mobility convergence technologies at CES 2026, taking place in Las Vegas from January 6 to 9.

For CES 2026, the company will run its booth as a private exhibit exclusively for pre-invited customers. While engaging general visitors is still valuable, Mobis decided to make CES a more focused venue for securing meaningful business opportunities by inviting key clients from across North America.

Under the theme “Layer of Progress,” Hyundai Mobis plans to underscore how its technologies connect and evolve together. The company will highlight select innovations across its core areas, including electronics, electrification, and chassis safety, tailored specifically for global customers. Senior executives from multiple major global automakers, including heads of purchasing and technology, have already confirmed their visits, signaling strong interest in the new lineup.

To facilitate deeper discussions, Hyundai Mobis has chosen a dedicated meeting room on the third floor of the West Hall at the Las Vegas Convention Center as its exhibition space. The setup allows visiting executives to stay longer, explore the technologies in detail, and discuss potential collaborations in a focused setting.

The highlights are the updated M.VICS 7.0 cockpit integrated solution and the X-by-Wire electronic control technology. 

M.VICS, Mobis’s integrated cockpit platform, brings together its advanced infotainment technologies, now refreshed with the 7.0 upgrade. Key features include a holographic windshield display that projects driving information directly onto the glass, a vertically expandable 18.1-inch large display, and a redesigned center-console interface that balances aesthetics with intuitive controls.

The X-by-Wire integrated solution is also expected to draw significant attention. X-by-Wire enables electronic steering and braking control without mechanical connections. By integrating both functions into a single controller, it delivers optimized driving dynamics. The system also includes built-in dual safety: even if a steering issue occurs, the braking system can safely manage the vehicle.

In addition, Hyundai Mobis will feature a range of next-generation technologies across electronics, electrification, and chassis systems, including an augmented-reality head-up display (AR-HUD), low-power display solutions, and cost-efficient, high-performance EV drive systems, offering customers a comprehensive look at its mobility innovations.

• “Holographic Windshield Display” Earns CES 2026 Innovation Award, Showcasing Hyundai Mobis’s Technical Leadership

The Holographic Windshield Display (HWD) featured in M.VICS 7.0 was named a CES 2026 Innovation Award winner last month by the Consumer Technology Association (CTA), reinforcing Hyundai Mobis’s global competitiveness in display technology. Each year, ahead of the exhibition, CTA recognizes standout technologies across various sectors, and Mobis received the award in the advanced mobility category for its excellence in engineering.

HWD is a next-generation display technology that Hyundai Mobis is developing in collaboration with German optics specialist Zeiss. It is the world’s first system to utilize holographic film to transform the entire front windshield into an ultra-large display surface. 

With this technology, drivers no longer need to glance down at the instrument cluster or other controls. Key driving information appears directly on the windshield, improving both safety and convenience. The passenger side can display separate content, such as videos or games, without being visible to the driver. This allows passengers to enjoy their own infotainment experience while keeping the driver free from distraction.

Hyundai Mobis is currently co-developing the HWD technology with major global customers to further refine and advance the system. The company aims to begin mass production in 2029 and position HWD as one of its core strategic offerings.

Looking ahead, Hyundai Mobis plans to continue expanding its global order pipeline. Through CES, international exhibitions, and roadshows, the company will ramp up promotional efforts in key markets across North America and Europe. These activities align with its goal of increasing the share of global OEM sales in its core component business to 40% by 2033.
