Vehicle-mounted multi-camera system and modular creator setups underscore SmallRig’s shift toward integrated production workflows.

LAS VEGAS, April 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — At NAB Show 2026, SmallRig showcased a range of scenario-driven imaging solutions, including an off-road vehicle-mounted multi-camera solution designed for dynamic outdoor production environments. The solution, equipped with multiple action cameras, demonstrated multi-angle capture, stability in challenging environments, and quick deployment capabilities for field-based productions.

SmallRig’s booth at NAB Show 2026 was designed around key production scenarios, such as outdoor filmmaking, multi-camera workflows, and mobile content creation, integrating equipment directly into real-world production environments. This setup allowed visitors to interact with the solutions in ways that mirrored their own creative workflows.

The booth featured six key zones: Off-Road Vehicle, Camera Cart, Tripod, DreamRig Customization, Battery & Lighting, and Creator Service Station. These areas showcased various content creation scenarios, from professional filmmaking and outdoor adventures to vlogging and live streaming, with highlights including DJI Osmo Pocket 4 ecosystem accessories, the RF 20C Portable LED Video Light, TRIBEX Monopod, and Camera Cart.

The DJI Osmo Pocket 4 solution, with integrated power, audio, control, and versatile mounting options, supported multi-camera setups, outdoor filming, and live streaming, offering creators a balance of portability and creative flexibility.

SmallRig also introduced a “Creator Service Station” at its booth, offering on-site services such as device charging, gear lending, and hands-on product demonstrations. The initiative also provided a platform for direct feedback from creators, allowing SmallRig to better understand user needs and inform future product development.

This strategy is part of SmallRig’s broader co-creation model, which integrates User Co-Design collaborations, the DreamRig customization program, and industry Co-Creation initiatives. By adopting this approach, SmallRig ensures that the real-world needs of creators are embedded directly into the product development cycle, creating a continuous loop from concept to iteration.

To date, SmallRig has collaborated with over 1,700 creators worldwide to develop more than 2,700 co-created products, backed by an agile supply chain that accelerates product development and deployment.

As the industry evolves, creators are increasingly operating in multi-setup, multi-scenario environments, where tools are combined to meet diverse production needs. SmallRig’s presence at NAB Show 2026 reinforces this shift, emphasizing workflow-based solutions rather than individual products, and demonstrating how multiple tools can work in harmony within a unified production system.

About SmallRig

Founded in 2013, SmallRig is a global provider of imaging solutions, offering a comprehensive ecosystem of camera, mobile accessories, lighting, power, and audio products. Initially focused on camera mounting, SmallRig has expanded into a brand known for its versatile and compatible product ecosystem, supporting creators in over 160 countries worldwide.

AI-driven Demand and Signs of Broad-based Recovery Boost Global Silicon Wafer Shipments, Despite Mixed Market Conditions

MILPITAS, Calif., April 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The SEMI Silicon Manufacturers Group (SMG) reported today, in its quarterly analysis of the silicon wafer industry, that worldwide silicon wafer shipments increased 13.1% year-on-year to 3,275 million square inches (MSI) from the 2,896 MSI recorded during the same quarter of 2025. Sequentially, shipments declined 4.7% quarter-over-quarter from the 3,437 MSI recorded during the fourth quarter of 2025 in line with typical seasonality.

Worldwide Silicon Wafer Shipments (MSI)

“Silicon wafer demand related to AI data centers continues to be strong, including advanced logic and memory, and also now extending to power management devices,” said Ginji Yada, Chairman of SEMI SMG and Managing Executive Officer, General Manager, Sales and Marketing Division at SUMCO Corporation. “Overall, silicon wafer demand has improved, but the recovery is not uniform. Many device companies have noted improvements in the industrial semiconductor segment, and this is creating a more broad-based recovery as wafer inventory is absorbed. Weaker smartphone and PC shipments in the first quarter of this year may show the impact of tighter supply of memory due to AI high bandwidth memory (HBM) allocation decisions.”

Silicon wafers are the fundamental building material for the majority of semiconductors, which are vital components of all electronic devices. The highly engineered thin disks are produced in diameters of up to 300 mm and serve as the substrate material on which most semiconductors are fabricated.

The SMG is a sub-committee of the SEMI Electronic Materials Group (EMG) and is open to SEMI members involved in manufacturing polycrystalline silicon, monocrystalline silicon or silicon wafers (e.g., as cut, polished, epitaxial). The SMG facilitates collective efforts on issues related to the silicon industry, including the development of statistics about the silicon industry.

BUDAPEST, Hungary , April 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Teqball’s campaign at the Asian Beach Games came to a spectacular conclusion in Sanya, delivering several days of high-quality competition, exciting rallies, and an outstanding atmosphere in a truly unique beachside setting. Featuring 14 nations from across Asia, the tournament showcased the sport’s growing strength in the region, with athletes competing in three medal events – Women’s Doubles, Mixed Doubles, and Men’s Doubles – each producing finals worthy of the occasion.

At the end of an unforgettable competition, Thailand emerged as the standout nation, claiming gold in all three categories and underlining its status as one of Asia’s leading forces in Teqball.

Women’s Doubles

Jutatip Kuntatong / Areeya Homdee (THA) defeated Sol Gyong Cha / Hyo Gyong Kim (PRK) 2–0

The Women’s Doubles final opened the medal matches with a composed and dominant display from the Thai pair. Jutatip Kuntatong and Areeya Homdee controlled the rhythm of the match from the opening points, with their chemistry, experience, and consistency proving decisive throughout.

The North Korean duo responded strongly in the second set and managed to make the contest far more competitive, but Thailand remained in control in the crucial moments to secure a straight-sets victory and the first gold medal of the finals.

Mixed Doubles

Suphawadi Wongkhamchan / Phakpong Dejaroen (THA) defeated Il Sin Kim / Song Han (PRK) 2–0

The Mixed Doubles final delivered another compelling Thailand–North Korea showdown. Suphawadi Wongkhamchan and Phakpong Dejaroen started confidently, taking command of the opening set with sharp attacking play and excellent coordination.

North Korea once again showed great determination in the second set, closing the gap and pushing the Thai pair into longer, more intense rallies, but Thailand’s quality proved decisive as they closed out the match in two sets to secure their second gold medal of the tournament.

Men’s Doubles

Sorrasak Thaosiri / Jirati Chanliang (THA) defeated Abdulrahman Ahmed Radhi / Ali Jalil Mezher Alelayawi (IRQ) 2–1

The Men’s Doubles final provided a fitting finale to the competition and carried extra significance, as it renewed the rivalry between Thailand and Iraq following their memorable clash at the recent Asian Youth Games, where Iraq had emerged victorious.

This time, Thailand turned the table. After taking the opening set, the Thai pair were pushed hard by a spirited Iraqi comeback in the second, with Iraq producing some exceptional Teqball to level the match. In the deciding set, however, Thailand’s composure, energy, and experience prevailed as Sorrasak Thaosiri and Jirati Chanliang powered to victory, completing a remarkable clean sweep of gold medals for the nation.

Husain Al Mussalam, OCA Director General

“Teqball has added great value to our Asian Beach Games Sanya sports programme. It fits naturally within Asian sports culture and continues to grow strongly across the continent. With seven countries winning medals, today’s finals showed exciting competition and confirmed Asia’s strength in Teqball. We look forward to continuing this journey at future Asian Games events.”

A Remarkable Debut for North Korea

One of the standout stories of the tournament came from North Korea, who made their first-ever appearance at an international Teqball competition. Their immediate impact was extraordinary, reaching two finals and returning home with two silver medals in Women’s Doubles and Mixed Doubles.

Such a debut is a strong reflection of Teqball’s growing reach across Asia and highlights the impressive development of the sport in North Korea, where emerging talent has already shown the ability to compete at continental level from the very beginning.

Final Medal Table

The conclusion of Teqball at the Asian Beach Games marks another important milestone in the sport’s development across Asia. The quality of competition, the remarkable atmosphere, and the growing number of nations competing at a high level all reflected the impressive progress Teqball continues to make in the region.

Dr Huszar Viktor, FITEQ Chairman

“On behalf of the International Teqball Federation and, in particular, the Asian Teqball Family, I would like to express our gratitude to OCA for having included our sport, Teqball, in the sports programme for the 6th Asian Beach Games here in Sanya. I also wish to extend our thanks to the local organising committee for the excellent cooperation as we jointly delivered the three previous days of true excitement with thrilling finals today in our spectacular beach-front venue. And many thanks go to the volunteers and staff for their tireless work and heartfelt commitment contributing to this shining success. I congratulate to the finalists and every athlete for their excellent sporting achievements and look forward to delivering Teqball throughout the continent to fans, spectators, communities and schools with the best elite and youth athletes Asia offers. Thank you OCA, thank you Sanya, thank you China.”

With momentum building strongly, attention now turns to the next major continental showcase — the Asian Games, set to take place in Aichi-Nagoya, Japan, from 19 September to 4 October 2026 — where Asia’s finest athletes will once again have the opportunity to showcase the very best of Teqball on one of sport’s biggest stages.

Recognition reflects the industry shift from document digitization to decision-ready data in insurance operations

NEW YORK and SINGAPORE, April 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Neutrinos, a leader in AI-powered intelligent automation for insurers, has been named a Leader in Everest Group’s 2026 Insurance-specific Intelligent Document Processing (IDP) Products PEAK Matrix® Assessment.

Neutrinos was evaluated as part of Everest Group’s assessment of IDP providers based on market impact, vision, and capability within its PEAK Matrix® framework.

Across insurance operations, document handling has become one of the most persistent drivers of inefficiency. While digitization solved access, competitive advantage now comes from converting incoming documents into structured, decision-ready intelligence at the point of entry.

In the 2026 Intelligent Document Processing reports, Everest Group examines how providers support document understanding, data extraction, and workflow orchestration to support document-intensive workflows, improve operational efficiency, reduce manual intervention, and address compliance requirements. 

“Neutrinos has been positioned as a Leader in the Insurance-specific Intelligent Document Processing (IDP) Products PEAK Matrix® Assessment 2026,” said Vaibhav Bansal, Vice President, Everest Group. “Its strong insurance focus, coupled with investments in a dedicated IDP Center of Excellence (CoE) offering 24×7 support, has strengthened its market position. The platform demonstrates deep domain alignment through capabilities such as validation of extracted applicant data against underwriting guidelines, auto-generation of underwriting summaries, and automatic detection and classification of insurance service requests. Additionally, its portfolio of pre-built, insurance-specific solutions, spanning KYC, claims processing, underwriting, and claims validation, helps accelerate time-to-value for insurers.” 

“Digitization was only the starting point. The next phase of insurance will be defined by how quickly insurers can convert documents into real-time, decision-grade intelligence,” said Samik Ghosh, Co-founder and CEO at Neutrinos. “That is the transformation Neutrinos is built for, moving from manual data handling to intelligent, autonomous decisioning across underwriting and claims. This recognition reinforces the direction the industry is already moving toward.”

The challenge is not access to documents, but what happens after they arrive. Unstructured inputs, fragmented validation, and manual interpretation create delays, inconsistencies, and unnecessary touchpoints. Neutrinos addresses this by reading, reasoning, and validating incoming information against underwriting and claims logic, converting documents into decision-ready data, and triggering downstream actions in real time. What once required manual effort across multiple steps becomes an orchestrated end-to-end flow, enabling teams to focus on risk selection, claims resolution, and customer service.
