Leading Electronics Brand Brings 240 VRR Gaming and Suite of Advanced Features
to its Award-Winning Home Theater Lineup

IRVINE, Calif., Oct. 24, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — TCL®, one of the world’s best-selling and leading consumer electronics companies, returns for its 6th year of partnership with best-selling video game franchise Call of Duty. Delivering on its commitment to the gaming community, TCL is extending its relationship with Activision as the Official TV & Sound Bar Partner of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 to elevate the gameplay experience with high performance, big-screen home theater solutions.

Developers behind Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 set out to produce an immersive game experience and TCL’s TVs and sound bars with advanced picture and audio bring that vision to life. Already a top choice among discerning gamers, TCL continues to push the boundaries in gaming by arming players with powerful unique features and certified gaming quality with AMD FreeSync™. TCL’s new matching sound bars incorporate Dolby Atmos to add to the realism and impact, putting gamers in the middle of the on-screen action.

“Recognition of TCL’s superior technology as a Call of Duty partner since 2018 is a badge of honor. From the beginning, we have focused on enhancing our TVs with innovative features that help create the best possible gaming experience,” said Scott Ramirez, Vice President of Product Marketing and Development, TCL. “For TCL, it starts with key gaming capabilities such as fast response time, 144Hz VRR, Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) and Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM). In 2024, TCL TVs take gaming capability to an all-new level with QD-Mini LED that ensures clear game detail in dark scenes, our amazing Game Accelerator 240 that provides up to 240 VRR capability for blistering fast gaming, and an advanced Game Bar that puts the gamer in full control. All of this is available in a wide range of TCL TV screen sizes up to an incredible 115-inches.” 

As every TCL TV is a gaming TV, TCL offers a gaming solution for virtually every player. For those looking for enhanced performance, TCL’s Q Class TVs provide QLED Pro for richer, more accurate color, and the advanced QD-Mini LED series such as QM7 and QM8 provide incredibly deep contrast with amazing gray scale accuracy and unsurpassed dark area detail. Sound is also enhanced with features such as Dolby Atmos, DTS Virtual:X, and on some models, built-in subwoofers. As a leader and innovator in both LCD panels and Mini LED backlight technology, TCL clearly offers state-of-the-art big screen displays. However, TCL continues to provide options to suit every need with gaming functionality in screen sizes from 32″ to the world’s largest QD-Mini LED television at 115″.

“Six years ago Call of Duty made the decision to work with TCL TVs. We’re proud to continue expanding the partnership, adding TCL’s sound bars to the fold last year, as we launch our highly anticipated title Call of Duty: Black Ops 6,” said William Gahagan, Senior Director of Global Partnerships & Integrated Marketing, Activision. “Call of Duty immerses gamers in a completely different world and TCL helps bring that to life for the community with vibrant picture that’s responsive and powerful audio.”

TCL’s Q Class TVs bring Call of Duty and other video games to life by letting gamers enjoy virtually every detail with incredible brightness and amazing visuals, even in a well-lit room for impactful gaming day or night, along with unmatched 4K clarity and real-time PQ optimization powered by TCL AIPQ Processors™. Worlds come alive as developers intended as QLED color and Dolby Vision IQ enhance cinematics found in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 while TCL’s Game Accelerator 240 unleashes up to blistering fast 240 VRR gaming for smooth, responsive gameplay – everything a gamer would want in a more immersive 98″ or even 115″ screen size. This lets users have the best experience in fast-action game modes like Black Ops 6 Multiplayer where victory hinges on split-second decisions. Additionally, HDMI 2.1 connectivity supports next-gen consoles, AMD FreeSync™ certification reduces or eliminates screen tearing and stuttering, and high zone local dimming adds incredible shadow detail, texture, and depth, to bring gamers deeper into the story. On game modes like Zombies, gameplay is more visceral as players look to fight off waves of undead enemies.

TCL’s Q Class TV brings advanced audio processing out of the box, with up to 2.1.2 Channel audio systems tuned by Onkyo built-in. Add in native support for Dolby Atmos, and playing Black Ops 6 on TCL’s sound bars allows gamers to take full advantage of object-based audio to position sounds in the game in a three-dimensional space around the player.

Nationally known author, TEDx speaker and 3M Chief Science Advocate Jayshree Seth, Ph.D. was in Chicago today sharing life lessons from her new book with fellow engineers at the Society of Women Engineers Annual Meeting.

CHICAGO, Oct. 24, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Noted National Engineering Author Jayshree Seth Shares Life Lessons from a Career in STEM at Society of Women Engineers Annual Meeting in Chicago
(ChicagoOctober 24, 2024) – Nationally known author, TEDx speaker and 3M Chief Science Advocate Jayshree Seth, Ph.D. was in Chicago today sharing life lessons from her new book with fellow engineers at the Society of Women Engineers Annual Meeting.

The book, “The Heart of the Science: Engineering Blueprint,” covers a wide range of STEM-related topics in four main sections and is the last in the SWE published trilogy with Seth, which includes “The Heart of Science: Engineering Fine Print,” and “The Heart of Science: Engineering Footprints and Imprints.” The book provides guidance to those in STEM or those considering a career in STEM.

The interactive format of the book provides an immersive experience for the reader with each chapter addressing practical topics, real-life application of the topic from Seth’s career, infographics providing a visual representation of the chapter, and a workbook for the reader to apply the lessons learned in their life. The book serves as the reader’s personal mentoring session with Seth.

In her introduction to her latest book, Seth sets forth her intention for readers.

“I didn’t start my career knowing how to think in ways that empowered me. I had to come into it through transition, reflection, and empowered action,” she writes. “A lot of these exercises ask you to stretch to places and roles you have only encountered in your imagination. It will plant the seeds in your head that will help you cultivate your specific way of thinking.”

Some of the topics addressed include:

    Influencing others to impact change    Managing opposition to diversity initiatives    Driving a sustainability leadership mindset    Viewing everyone as a mentor

Unique to this book is the workbook at the end of every chapter, which Seth aptly calls “Draft Blueprints” as they provide readers with their personal draft that they can implement using key points gleaned from Seth’s insights and real-life experiences, crafting a dynamic publication that the reader will find engaging and practical.

“SWE is honored to support Jayshree’s book and her commitment to helping young women entering the engineering field,” said Karen Hortin, executive direct and CEO of SWE. “The latest book serves as the perfect capstone course to her trilogy of invaluable teachings.”

Seth, a corporate innovator, and first-ever chief science advocate, is a prolific inventor, author, speaker and thought leader. She holds 80 patents and provides unique and practical perspectives on innovation, leadership, culture, and careers. Seth was featured in the 3M docuseries, “Not the Science Type,” which premiered during Tribeca Film Festival in 2021. She also received The Society of Women Engineers Achievement Award in 2020.

All proceeds go toward the Jayshree Seth Scholarship for Women of Color in STEM, administered by the Society of Women Engineers. The Scholarship is aimed at helping underrepresented minorities advance in STEM education and professionals related to engineering and technology. The scholarship has awarded $29,000 to five individuals since its inception in 2021.

CFG: UK MEDICAL JOURNAL EXPOSES HEALTH HARM FROM ONLINE GAMBLING

Published

on

By

LONDON, Oct. 24, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — A new report published in The Lancet Public Health reveals the urgent need for regulatory reform as the global expansion of commercial gambling is causing widespread and underestimated harm to public health. 

A new report in The Lancet Public Health reveals the need for gambling reform as expansion is harming public health.

“As a philanthropic gambling reform advocate, I started CFG as a US-facing site, knowing how disastrous the UK experience of online gambling has been,” said Derek Webb, founder and funder of the Campaign for Fairer Gambling (CFG). “This damning Lancet report confirms my worst fears: the financially-motivated trade bodies and their associated proponents have been responsible for generational harm to individuals.”

The Lancet Public Health Commission calls for regulatory reform to tackle the health impacts of the rapid global expansion of commercial gambling. Key findings include:

Gambling harms are far more substantial than previously understood, exacerbated by rapid global expansion and digital transformation of the gambling industry. Harms from gambling include physical and mental health problems, relationship breakdown, heightened risk of suicide and domestic violence, increased crime, loss of employment and financial losses.An estimated 80 million adults globally experience gambling disorder or problematic gambling.The harms of gambling are not evenly distributed; adolescents, children and those from disadvantaged socioeconomic groups are more at risk. Lower- and middle-income countries are less equipped to regulate the industry and deal with the harms it generates. Effective and well-resourced regulatory controls and international leadership are urgently needed to reduce the impact of commercial gambling on public health and protect progress on UN Sustainable Development Goals.

Stronger global regulatory controls are needed to reduce the impact of commercial gambling on worldwide health and wellbeing, according to the Lancet Public Health Commission.

The Commission brought together a multidisciplinary group of leading experts in gambling studies, public health, global health policy, risk control and regulatory policy, alongside contributors who have first-hand experience of gambling harms. After reviewing the literature, and figures generated from a systematic review and meta-analysis, the Commissioners concluded that “gambling poses a threat to public health, the control of which requires a substantial expansion and tightening of gambling industry regulation.”

“There is an urgent need for a US federal investigation into online gambling, which did not exist when the last gambling investigation occurred in 1999,” Webb concluded. 

CFG is an independent gambling reform group with deep knowledge of the gambling sector’s business and lobbying practices in both the U.K. and the U.S. CFG is dedicated to promoting fairer gambling practices through research, advocacy, and reform. CFG exists to equip policymakers with real, reliable data to foster more informed, balanced debates and ultimately smarter gambling policy.
