SEOUL, South Korea, Dec. 22, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — YeonDeungHoe, a Korean traditional cultural festival in which participants light up lanterns to celebrate Buddha’s Birthday, has become a UNESCO intangible cultural heritage of Humanity.

Experience the interactive Multichannel News Release here: https://www.prnasia.com/mnr/ydh_202012.shtml

At the 15th session of the UNESCO Intergovernmental Committee for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage held online on 16th, December at UNESCO headquarters in Paris, France, YeonDeungHoe was confirmed to be listed as an intangible cultural heritage of Humanity.

The Festival is an annual event held to mark the birth of Buddha, who pursued a wise life to make a better world. People light the lanterns while making their wishes during the event. ‘YeonDeung’ literally means ‘lighting a lantern,’ which can be interpreted as lighting up the heart and the world, wishing for wisdom, mercy, happiness, and peace.

The tradition dates back to 866, with the first historic records depicting the ancient Kingdom of Silla (57 B.C.-A.D. 935) telling stories of holding the event at Hwangnyongsa Temple in  Gyeongju. Since then, it has been a representative Korean traditional culture with 1,200 years of sharing all the joys and sorrows with the Korean people through the Unified Silla, Goryeo, and Joseon Dynasties.

The Festival has been transformed from the GwandeungNori, where participants enjoy the magnificent views of the lighted lanterns, to the current Lantern Parade where people make a parade throughout the Jongno Street, holding the lanterns made by themselves. YeonDeungHoe has been passed down creatively to follow the trend of the times while maintaining its tradition. It is a Korean cultural event that anyone can participate in voluntarily, and a festival that everyone can enjoy together, wishing each other happiness.

The Committee took note of the inclusiveness of YeonDeungHoe, which contributes to overcoming all social boundaries and to ultimately expressing cultural diversity. The Committee also noted that the lantern lighting festival plays the role of sharing pleasure and, in times of difficulties, of enhancing social cohesion. Most importantly, the Committee celebrated YeonDeungHoe as a good example of how a single inscription can contribute to enhancing the public awareness of the significance of intangible cultural heritage in general.

To commemorate the listing of the Festival as a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage, the YeonDeungHoe Preservation Committee will host the Special Exhibition and prepare for the 2021 YeonDeungHoe. Festival participants hope that COVID-19 will end as early as possible so that they can enjoy the Festival altogether.

Volvo Cars imagines the future of autonomous drive by tapping into origins of human communication

GOTHENBURG,  Sweden, Dec. 22, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Volvo Cars has established itself as one of the leaders in autonomous drive development, following its announcement earlier this year that its next generation of cars will be available as hardware ready for the technology from production start.

<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"…

GOTHENBURG,  Sweden, Dec. 22, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Volvo Cars has established itself as one of the leaders in autonomous drive development, following its announcement earlier this year that its next generation of cars will be available as hardware ready for the technology from production start.

At the same time, the company is also looking further into the future, considering how autonomous cars will communicate with other road users in a driverless world. This research looks beyond current Highway Pilot plans, which aims to have cars drive safely on their own on chosen areas of highway that Volvo has verified as safe. To design this future, however, Volvo’s experts are seeking inspiration from the past.

«We make no secret about the fact that we see autonomous drive as the real long-term solution to avoid car accidents and to achieve traffic safety,» says Mats Moberg, Senior Vice President of R&D at Volvo Cars. However, as is always the case at Volvo Cars, safety is the first concern.

The Volvo 360c autonomous concept car, unveiled in 2018, provides one possible avenue of future development. It explores the type of safety-focused communication Volvo Cars believes will be essential to cars of the future when it comes to sharing the road with other road users, including other vehicles, cyclists and pedestrians. The design for the 360c explores a combination of external sounds, lights, and even subtle movements to communicate the vehicle’s intentions to other road users.

While the Highway Pilot will only be available on highways verified safe, when future autonomous cars eventually enter environments shared with pedestrians, cyclists and other road users, the vehicles will need to navigate all these complexities on their own. Although the communication is intended for highly advanced cars that won’t be realised for years to come, the inspiration behind it is simple and age-old: the human body language.

«What we’re really after is to give the self-driving car a type of body language that everyone understands,» says Mikael Ljung Aust, Senior Technical Leader for Collision Avoidance Functions at the Volvo Cars Safety Centre.

«If you want to set up a global standard for communication, there are some basic ground rules you need to follow. One, you need to speak a language that everybody understands, otherwise it isn’t global. Two, it needs to be fairly quick. You can’t have any uncertainties in traffic situations.»

Inspired by aspects of such universal human communication, Volvo is investigating sounds which aim to indicate an autonomous car’s intentions to other road users.

«What we really need is three or four key sounds that tell you what the car is going to do,» says Ljung Aust. «One of these sounds is informing the driver or the pedestrians around the car what its intentions are, for example: ‘I do not intend to move’.»

«For this, we use a low frequency sound, one we as humans naturally associate with something big. It’s a pulse, oscillating very slowly, which indicates the car is standing still.»

This intuitive approach has also inspired the acceleration and deceleration sounds being proposed by the 360c, which consist of a soft ticking that gradually increases and decreases in frequency respectively.

For a sound that warns a pedestrian of an oncoming car, Volvo was inspired by a technology used in submarines. The company is researching a new technology that uses ultrasounds via parametric speakers to «ping» pedestrians and cyclists with a noise only they can hear, similar to a submarine’s sonar.

However, as with most human communication, sound is most effective when accompanied by a synchronized visual display. Volvo Cars thus is looking into the possibilities of replacing the eye-to-eye acknowledgement of driver and other road users using contextual lights on the car.

On the 360c concept car, this is visualised by a light band wrapped around the car’s sides. The band lights up to alert other road users that they have been «seen» by the car and are thus taken into account by its safety systems. The same light band synchronises with the car’s sounds to safely and clearly communicate its intentions.

«There is an almost behavioral or ancestral reflex in people that make them jump or at least alert themselves if things happen in two channels at the same time,» says Ljung Aust. «Thunder and lightning is an easy example.»

While this technology is in the developmental stages, it’s all part of Volvo Cars’ efforts to create the safest traffic situations possible. By tapping into a combination of movement, sounds and light – non-verbal communications that have been so deeply ingrained in humans for tens of thousands of years – Volvo Cars hopes to make the intentions of autonomous cars to be understood quickly, safely and universally in years to come.

Global Climate Change Patterns to Heighten Demand

The previous decade has finally proven that climate change is a reality. According to a NASA report, the 2010-2019 decade was the hottest in the past 140 years. Consequently, erratic weather patterns have led to untold destruction and damage. Frequent hurricanes and wildfires have greatly disrupted livelihoods. Therefore, the 2015 Paris Climate Accords was hailed as a welcome gesture, reaffirming states’ commitments to reduce global carbon footprint to the tune of over 30%.

Erratic weather patterns have naturally led to increased incidence of fog and unseasonal rains, dry spells, and snowstorms. Therefore, automotive manufacturers have accelerated efforts to equip automotive with advanced defogging and defrosting technologies and devices in order to aid government efforts to downsize the global menace of surging road accidents.
