INFiLED Rolls Out Dual-Sided LED Wayfinding Across China's Rail Hubs

Shenzhen – September 09, 2026 -- INFiLED completed a new digital wayfinding installation at Shenzhen North Railway Station in June 2026, deploying its GeminiLED Series at key passenger circulation points as the company expands LED display deployment across China's rail network.

Dual-sided display targets converging passenger flows at major interchange

Shenzhen North combines high-speed rail with three metro lines, generating passenger flows that converge, divide and change direction throughout the hub. INFiLED's GeminiLED Series addresses this with a dual-sided structure that integrates two independently controlled display faces within a single suspended unit, allowing content to address passengers approaching from opposite directions simultaneously. The unit carries a 25.5 mm ultra-slim profile, a design constraint aimed at operating stations where structural loading, available space and short installation windows limit refurbishment work.

Sky Labs' CART Ring Validated for AFib, Heart Failure BP Monitoring

Munich – September 09, 2026 -- Sky Labs unveiled new clinical data at ESC Congress 2026 showing its ring-shaped blood pressure monitor CART achieved an 80% data evaluability rate in 24-hour monitoring of patients with atrial fibrillation (AFib), addressing a gap where conventional cuffs struggle with irregular pulses.

CART shows high concordance with standard ambulatory monitoring in severe heart failure patients

Professor In-Cheol Kim of Keimyung University Dongsan Hospital reported that CART, tested against conventional 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) in heart failure patients with a mean ejection fraction of 29%, showed high concordance and fully met European Society of Hypertension (ESH) error-margin criteria.

Sky Labs' CART Ring Shows 80% Data Accuracy in AFib, Heart Failure Trials

Munich – September 09, 2026 -- Sky Labs presented new clinical trial data for its ring-based blood pressure monitor, CART, at the ESC Congress 2026 in Munich on September 7, showing an 80% data evaluability rate in continuous monitoring of atrial fibrillation (AFib) patients and high correlation with standard ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) in severe heart failure cases.

CART achieves 80% evaluability rate in 24-hour monitoring of atrial fibrillation patients

Professor Ki-Hong Lee of Chonnam National University Hospital reported that CART's ring-based 24-hour monitoring achieved approximately 80% data evaluability in AFib patients, enabling continuous tracking of nocturnal blood pressure dipping patterns that irregular pulse rates typically disrupt for cuff-based devices.
