BARCELONA, Spain, Oct. 20, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — eDreams ODIGEO, Europe’s largest online travel company and one of the largest European e-commerce businesses, today announced the launch of a unique, AI-powered travel trends service that provides unparalleled insights on global industry trends and anonymised consumer habits.  

This service, led by the Media Services department, is primarily aimed at supporting tourist boards, policy makers and local governments to develop successful visitor experience strategies on a local, regional and national level. The data driven decisions are based on the analysis of over 21 billion anonymised data points, which provides insight on travel supply and demand trends, consumer preferences and travel habits.

Access to these insights provides partners with the ability to make informed decisions to support their tourism strategy from branding to conversion, helping to focus marketing efforts and attract more travellers, ultimately boosting the local and national economy. This summer several partners utilised eDreams ODIGEO’s travel insights to help secure a competitive advantage and rebuild tourism following the global travel restrictions due to Covid-19. For example, a European tourism agency used the data trends to create a campaign focused on three key audience groups. Insight from the data led to the creation of a collateral campaign focused on different USPs of the destination, such as the cultural, retail and entertainment attractions that would resonate with these audience groups with the aim of increasing bookings and stay duration in the city. The successful campaign resulted in an 18% year on year increase in the average length of stay in the city.  

Zaida Salie, Director Media Services and Partnership at eDreams ODIGEO, commented, «Our unique insights on travel trends and customer behaviour are a vital tool to help countries understand how to effectively target audiences and regain market share in a competitive space, especially in the post COVID19 era. The unique data insights we can provide to tourist boards and policy makers ensures brand and marketing is precisely aligned with a traveller’s mindset, helping to secure booking conversions and boost local spend. We are constantly leveraging our tech capabilities and extensive data insights to create products that provide travellers and destinations with an improved travel experience.»

This service is available to partner organisations on a subscription basis. For more information please visit https://advertising.edreamsodigeo.com/

Dodgers Heavily Favored Over Rays In World Series Odds Posted By MyBookie

LAS VEGAS, Oct. 20, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — The Tampa Bay Rays have never won a World Series. The Los Angeles Dodgers are one of baseball’s most successful franchises overall – and are in the Fall Classic for the third time in the past four years, but they haven’t won a title since 1988.

One drought will end as the teams meet in this year’s World Series starting Tuesday from Globe Life Field in Arlington, TX.

LAS VEGAS, Oct. 20, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — The Tampa Bay Rays have never won a World Series. The Los Angeles Dodgers are one of baseball’s most successful franchises overall – and are in the Fall Classic for the third time in the past four years, but they haven’t won a title since 1988.

One drought will end as the teams meet in this year’s World Series starting Tuesday from Globe Life Field in Arlington, TX.

MyBookie’s Head Oddsmaker David Strauss lists the Dodgers as -210 series favorites after leading the majors in wins during the regular season. The Rays are +160 underdogs.

For full World Series Odds visit mybookie.ag/sportsbook/mlb/world-series

World Series Expert Analysis from MyBookie Head Oddsmaker, David Strauss

The Dodgers have been a juggernaut all season. Once LA acquired Mookie Betts from Boston in February, the Dodgers became the odds-on World Series favorites. They did not disappoint, racing to a 43-17 record and posting a plus 136 run differential – both the best in baseball, by far.

The Dodgers are back in the World Series for the third time in four seasons, the first team to do that since the Yankees in 2000, 2001 and 2003.

The Dodgers’ NLCS roster included 12 players who have been All-Stars in their careers, for a total of 26 appearances. The Rays’ roster features just four All-Stars with five appearances.

To most fans, the Rays are an anonymous bunch. They opened the season ranking 28th in the majors in payroll. The only team to reach the World Series since 1998 with a lower ranking? The 2008 Rays.

Regardless of the unique paths each organization has taken to this point, they’re both league champions, and either team would make worthy World Series champs. So, who’s going to win it all?

David Strauss Series Prediction Dodgers in six games (+350)

Tampa Bay may be the only team to match the Dodgers’ depth, but LA’s stars will prove to be too much for even the Rays to overcome. Expect the Dodgers to finally exercise their demons and win their first title in more than 3 decades.

SERIES PRICES | MLB – Oct 20 | MLB WORLD SERIES PRICES

Rays Win Series: +160
Dodgers Win Series: -220

RAYS VS DODGERS – WHEN WILL SERIES FINISH?

Foretellix Releases the World’s First ALKS Regulation Verification Package for Automated Driving Systems

Mobileye and Foretellix demonstrate safety regulation compliance flow for Automated Driving Systems using new ALKS package with RSS

Mobileye and Foretellix demonstrate safety regulation compliance flow for Automated Driving Systems using new ALKS package with RSS

TEL AVIV, Israel, Oct. 20, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Foretellix today announced its new ALKS verification package, the world’s first commercial solution for the newly announced Automatic Lane-Keeping System (ALKS) regulation. The new package includes support of Mobileye Responsibility-Sensitive Safety (RSS) following a successful joint demonstration of ALKS safety regulation and compliance flow. The new verification package will help automakers address the regulatory and certification requirements of ALKS automated driving systems. 

 

Foretellix Logo

 

Foretellix has recently released its novel ADAS & Highway solution that provides an out-of-the-box, comprehensive verification package from Level 2 driver-assist technologies to Level 4 highway-focused, fully autonomous solutions. With the introduction of the new package, the solution now includes the first-ever commercial implementation of new ALKS regulation by the UNECE, the world’s first Level 3 regulation.

In a joint demonstration with Mobileye, the ALKS verification package generated the required regulation scenarios and parameters and provided measurable metrics on the RSS controlled vehicle behavior. The package used Mobileye’s RSS model to ensure that the tested vehicle does not initiate dangerous situations and properly responds to dangerous situations initiated by other vehicles. These scenarios were varied over a wide range of parameter values, demonstrating that safety as well as regulatory requirements are met.

«We are excited to show how our Coverage Driven verification approach, combined with Mobileye’s RSS, helps bring the industry closer to the goal of measurable safety,» said Gil Amid, Chief Regulatory Affairs Officer and Foretellix co-founder.

«Regulators will require proof of a vehicle’s ability to avoid reasonably foreseeable and preventable collisions,» said Jack Weast, Vice President of AV standards at Mobileye. «The Foretellix Foretify approach using RSS gives OEMs a way to demonstrate compliance with the most advanced automated driving regulation in the world.» 

About Foretellix 
Foretellix is enabling the Digital Transformation of safety-critical automotive verification. Foretellix solutions uniquely scale to meet the challenge of verifying the safety of today’s increasingly complex driving systems. Foretellix was founded by a team of pioneers in measurable verification and validation combined with a highly automated and proven Coverage Driven Verification methodology broadly adopted in the semiconductor industry. They have adapted and tailored their approach for the safety verification and validation of ADAS and autonomous vehicles.
