SAN FRANCISCO, April 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Dreame Technology, a global high-end technology company, today launched more than 20 smart home products and dozens of industry-first technologies at the Living Next segment of DREAME NEXT in San Francisco. The centerpiece of the showcase is the expansion of Dreame’s bionic robotic arm technology into air conditioners, range hoods, steam ovens, and dishwashers, demonstrating how a core capability continuously evolves and compounds across product categories.

Dreame first introduced bionic robotic arm technology in 2023. The technology has since been continuously refined and reapplied across product categories, with each new application compounding on prior engineering. In 2026, Dreame launched its second-generation bionic robotic arm technology, enabling extension ranges of up to 12 cm for the side brush and 16 cm for the mop, significantly enhancing edge coverage performance. At DREAME NEXT, it appears in new forms across multiple product categories. On the X Series Air Conditioner, it takes the form of a dual-arm airflow system delivering 126° wide-angle and zone-targeted air distribution. On the HX01 range hood, articulated wing arms use millimeter-wave radar to detect cookware position and adjust smoke capture angle in real time. On the OX01 steam oven, it serves as a full-zone airflow guide. And on the DX01 dishwasher, an AI-powered robotic arm provides automated cruising wash coverage.

Beyond bionic robotic arms, the Living Next lineup also showcases products built around Dreame’s intelligent algorithms and high-speed motor technology. The Z1 Laundry Robot is equipped with a multi-joint robotic arm, multimodal sensing, and proprietary AI perception, enabling it to autonomously pick up, wash, dry, and retrieve clothing without human intervention. Dreame’s AI coffee machine uses algorithms that learn from user preferences and connects with wearable devices to monitor physiological data and recommend beverages accordingly.

The showcase also featured major advances in Dreame’s cleaning appliance lineup. The X60 Pro Ultra Complete introduces second-generation bionic robotic arm technology, achieving 18cm mop pad extension and 12cm side brush extension for zero-blind-spot whole-home coverage. It also features an industry-first 42kPa suction fan operating at 150,000 RPM. The Aqua20 Pro Ultra Roller Complete is the industry’s first robot vacuum with 160°C high-temperature steam mopping, combining steam cleaning, 75°C hot water mopping, 18N bionic pressure, and 100°C base station hot water wash in a single system. In the wet floor cleaner category, the Aero Ultra Steam combines steam cleaning, hot water washing, and foam cleaning in one unit, targeting North American households that prioritize chemical-free cleaning.

NBA three-time champion Dwyane Wade appeared on stage during the robot vacuum and wet floor cleaner demonstrations, testing the products live and sharing his perspective on how intelligent cleaning technology fits into an active lifestyle.

“Bionic robotic arm technology started with solving a single problem on a robot vacuum. Today it powers products across various appliance categories,” said Chang Xinwei, Global President of Dreame Technology. “When a core technology can evolve from cleaning floors to managing airflow, directing heat, and handling laundry autonomously, it stops being a product feature. It becomes a platform.”

Dreame’s Living Next lineup represents the broadest single-day product launch in the company’s history, reinforcing its position as a multi-category home technology brand built on a shared engineering foundation.

DREAME NEXT continues through April 30 in San Francisco.

BANGKOK, April 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Fraud has evolved into industrial-scale operations across Southeast Asia. At Money20/20 Asia 2026, held from April 21 to 23 in Bangkok, VIDA, Indonesia’s leading digital identity network, warned that traditional approaches to identity security are no longer sufficient.

Founder and CEO of VIDA, Niki Luhur, shared this during the panel session “How Cybercriminals Target Fintech and What’s Next.” He highlighted how fraud has scaled across the region, from industrialized scam compounds to cross-border syndicates spanning Myanmar, Thailand, and Indonesia. In one case, authorities in Myanmar seized $12 billion in Bitcoin, underscoring the scale of these operations.

“Cybercrime is democratic, they don’t care what size institution you are. They just scan for vulnerabilities. All the doors that are open, they exploit them,” said Niki Luhur.

This industrialized scale is made possible by one thing: Systematic exploitation of weak points across digital systems. Rather than targeting specific institutions, cybercriminals focus on vulnerabilities that can be replicated and scaled across platforms.

Niki emphasized that while attention is on deepfakes, the real threat lies deeper in the attack chain, particularly in injection attacks. “Deepfakes get the buzz, but the door is an injection attack. The majority come from virtual cameras on compromised devices,” he added.

His solution is clear: layered defense requiring three simultaneous verifications; the person (biometrics), their identity (against government databases), and the device. This approach addresses the infrastructure gap where KYC and authentication systems remain siloed across financial institutions.

Alongside its presence at the conference, VIDA is also launching ID FraudShield, a new fraud detection solution built for threats that traditional biometric checks can no longer stop. ID Fraud Shield combines biometric liveness with device intelligence, behavioral analytics, network detection, and rule-based fraud evaluation, all delivered in parallel through one SDK. It’s designed for one purpose: catching the fraud that liveness alone misses.

WASHINGTON, April 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The Taxpayers Protection Alliance is condemning draft legislation, released in Australia, that would impose a digital tax on large platforms. The law would impose a charge of 2.25 percent of Australian revenues on covered platforms that fail to strike compensation deals with local news outlets.

In response to the draft legislation, David B. McGarry, Research Director of the Taxpayers Protection Alliance, offered the following comment:

“The politics of the digital age are the politics of blaming the biggest, the most visible, but not the most culpable. The decline of local news cannot be attributed to the targeted tech companies, which, conversely, provide a platform for outlets of all sizes. Australian lawmakers propose to upend digital markets in an effort to find a simple—and futile—solution to a changing news environment.

“This is more than just a ‘tax’—the proposal is a punishment designed to force platforms to strike agreements with local news outlets. Retributionist policies of this kind will not promote innovation, benefit consumers, or save local news.

“Two of the three platforms designated for regulation under the proposal are American companies. America’s light-touch approach to digital regulation has helped to foster the world’s leading tech sector—an outcome that is no coincidence. TPA urges President Trump to make clear to the Australian government that the United States will not tolerate its most productive tech giants being subjected to ill-conceived digital taxation.”

The Taxpayers Protection Alliance (TPA) is a non-profit, non-partisan organization dedicated to educating the public through the research, analysis, and dissemination of information on the government’s impact on the economy.
