Singapore’s construction industry set to outpace the country’s GDP growth rate this year

SINGAPORE, Sept 4, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Construction growth in Singapore sees a 12 percent rise in productivity in 2024, outstripping the country’s modest overall GDP growth rate of 2-3 percent four times over, according to global professional services company, Turner & Townsend[1].With construction volume anticipated to reach between S$32bn to S$38bn by the end of 2024[2], Turner, and Townsend’s Singapore Market Intelligence cites a series of government backed initiatives and major state projects, such as Changi Airport Terminal 5 (T5) and Tuas Port, are key contributors boosting demand.Recent built environment incentives including the enhanced Contractors Registration System (CRS), the Productivity Innovation Project (PIP), the Future Energy Fund and Energy Efficient Grant are supporting activity. By year-end, the Singaporean state is expected to contribute to 55 percent of domestic construction projects while the private sector is poised for a contribution of 45 percent.  Despite ongoing global economic uncertainty and geopolitical instability, the construction market in Singapore is also benefitting from investment in digital infrastructure and the launch of the NEC4[3] contract by the Building Construction Authority (BCA). The latter providing favourable conditions and extensive options for collaborative contracting.While the overall growth trajectory is positive for the domestic construction sector, there are still challenges to navigate principally the availability of skilled labour. The departure of many construction workers during the pandemic continues to highlight the labour squeeze and increasing costs to secure the right talent.Khoo Sze Boon, Managing Director, Turner & Townsend in Singapore, said:“Construction demand in Singapore is on course to surpass last year by a significant margin which is positive for our domestic economy. The industry's overall positive outlook stems from the series of ongoing government initiatives connected to the built environment including robust schemes to promote funding, foster technological advancements, ensure ease of doing business, and boost sustainable green initiatives.“While challenges persist, such as manpower shortages and rising costs, optimism around collaborative contracting schemes and the digitization of processes will further improve productivity. We believe now is the time for our industry to really embrace collaborative contracting which will offset rising construction costs and transform the construction sector for the better to ensure long-term resilience.”[1] GDP growth according to the Ministry of Trade and Industry Singapore, Construction growth according to Building Construction Authority, calculated based on 2024 demand forecast of $38bn over the 2023 demand of $33.8bn.[2] According to the Building Construction Authority as of 15 January 2024[3] NEC4 contract is a suite of contracts for effective project management and collaborationAbout Turner & TownsendTurner & Townsend is a global professional services company with over 12,000 people in 49 countries.

NFL 新的開球規則說明

(SeaPRwire) -   在拉斯維加斯的一個二月下午, ,在 62,000 名觀眾齊聚 Allegiant Stadium 的場合中,許多人舉起手機,準備捕捉 NFL 賽季中最令人期待的時刻:超級盃星期日開球,終於,這場大賽的序幕揭開了。超過 1 億名觀眾也鎖定觀看,屏息以待。   但 Butker 卻讓他們全失望了。球飛過舊金山 49 人隊回攻球員的頭頂,飛出界外形成觸地得分。真無聊。   在 2007 年,芝加哥熊隊的 Devin Hester 以回攻開球為超級盃 XLI 揭開序幕,而包括 、 、 和 在內的九名其他速度飛快的球員也曾在多年中做過同樣的事情,但超級盃 LVIII 的開球卻沒有產生任何進攻。那场比赛中有 13 次开球。 还有 13 次令人无趣的触地得分。 NFL 正在寻求终止这种乏味。早在 3 月,联盟就通过了 ,这项新规则将在 9 月 5 日开始的本赛季实施。 规则有点复杂,但这篇文章将为您解释。   球队仍然会从自己的 35 码线开球,但接球队会在触地得分时从自己的 30 码线开始,而不是自己的 25 码线,这减少了踢球队将球踢出界外的动力。同时,踢球队的另外 10 名球员将站在对方 40 码线的位置,而不是像过去一样站在开球点。 接球队的至少 9 名球员必须站在他们自己的 35 码线和 30 码线之间的“准备区”;过去,8 或 9 名接球队的球员会在踢球队的 45 码线和接球队的 40 码线之间准备。 在被踢出的球击中地面或被接球队的接球者在“落地区”(接球队的 20 码线和球门线之间)接住之前,这些球员都不能移动。(如果球没有达到 20 码线,接球队将在他们自己的 40 码线接球:这是一个有利的位置。)这种对位方式类似于一次比赛中的进攻,踢球队和接球队面对面,彼此靠近,这应该可以使开球更安全。 传统上,球员在跑动到球场时会加速,造成高冲击力的碰撞。 在新的规则下,落在落地区的球必须被回攻。 “每个人都在努力解决的两个主要问题是如何让开球再次变得有意义,将那种令人兴奋的比赛更多地带回比赛中,但这必须是一种旨在降低受伤率的设计,而开球比赛的历史上一直是受伤率最高的比赛,”前裁判沃尔特·安德森说。 他现在为 NFL 工作,担任裁判规则分析师。“这确实是挑战。”   初步结果看起来很有希望。2024 年季前赛中,超过 70% 的开球被回攻,而去年季前赛这一比例为 54.8%。 NFL 在本季前赛中看到了 18 次至少 40 码的回攻,是 2023 年的两倍。   但常规赛可能会呈现出不同的故事。在 2023 年的赛季中,只有 22% 的 NFL 开球被回攻,创下历史新低:球队很可能在热身赛中将开球投入比赛,以评估他们的防守人员。新规则的一位合格的怀疑者——前新英格兰爱国者队教练、六届超级碗冠军 ——预测,一旦比赛正式开始,球队将继续将球踢出界外,就像 Butker 在超级碗中所做的那样。   将接球队向前移动 5 码至终点线并不值得冒着让一名顶级回攻球員造成更大伤害的风险。“一旦进入常规赛,如果[对方]球队拥有出色的回攻球員,那就只会是触地得分,”贝利奇克在 8 月份的《帕特·麦凯夫秀》中说。“这将是唯一的结局。 你把他们放在 30 码线而不是 25 码线,我的意思是,这没什么大不了的。 但我宁愿这样做,也不愿把球踢给那些能够迅速改变场地位置的球员。” 贝利奇克说,如果你想创造更多的回攻,就把开球点移回 20 码线或 25 码线,让 Butker 这样的球员更难将球踢出界外。这种调整在逻辑上是合理的。   好消息是:这种新模式将持续一年。 如果它失败了,联盟可以进行调整。    “我们将看看一年中会发生什么,”安德森说。“我们是否希望最终进行一些改变? 我们是否希望重返绘图板? 一切皆有可能。”  本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

文字治療真的有效嗎?

(SeaPRwire) -   十多年前,研究数字健康的临床心理学家 Thomas Derrick Hull 突發奇想。如果治療師,他們為美國的心理健康保健提供服務,開始用短信聯繫病人,而不是讓他們來診所呢? 當時,即使對 Hull 來說,患者和提供者也似乎不可能通過屏幕建立面對面時才會出現的聯繫和有意義的對話。但好處很誘人:發短信便宜、快速、易於訪問,而且隨時隨地都可以進行,這可能會讓治療師定期與患者互動,而不是等待每周的治療。因此,Hull 開始進行短信治療,最終成為了線上治療平台 Talkspace 的高管。(他於 2020 年離開公司,現在為 。) 即使發短信僅有傳統治療效果的 60% 或 70%,但其便捷性和可訪問性可能會使其成為一個比沒有好得多的選擇,Hull 過去常想。Hull 說:「這感覺就像一場公平的交易。「但當我們開始研究數據時,發現似乎效果一樣好。」 最近的研究(其中一些由 Talkspace 等短信治療提供商資助)繼續表明,短信是一種合法且有效的精神健康保健方式 。例如,在 7 月發表的一篇研究中,Hull 和其他研究人員發現,通過短信或語音筆記進行的治療與遠程治療的效果一樣好——遠程治療本身已被證明可以有效減輕焦慮和抑鬱症狀。 這意味著,喜歡與治療師發短信的人應該相信他們能獲得與選擇視頻會診的人一樣質量的護理,該研究的資深作者 Michael Pullmann 說,他在華盛頓大學醫學院擔任研究教授期間進行了這項研究。 這怎么可能呢?因為患者和治療師之間的聯繫被認為是治療是否成功的最佳預測因素之一。這種聯繫真的可以在短信中建立嗎?美國心理學會 在 2015 年並沒有就短信治療發表意見,而且對這個想法 持保留態度。但一項 研究表明,牢固的聯繫可以通過短信或電子郵件建立,就像在人際交往中一樣。 研究甚至發現,人們可以通過短信「建立聯繫」。 一些 研究表明,面對面的關係比線上關係產生更好的結果——但加州大學伯克利分校的副教授 Adrian Aguilera 沒有太擔心這個問題。Aguilera 表示,他不太關心短信治療的效果是否與面對面治療一樣好,更關心它是否比沒有好——因為 今天,很多人都沒有機會獲得心理健康保健。「它是最優選擇嗎?可能不是,」他說。「一個更好的問題是,『它能滿足未滿足的需求嗎?』」 答案似乎是肯定的。在疫情期間,Aguilera 進行了一項 研究,人們每天收到旨在改善心理健康的自動短信。(例如:「自我安撫是應對痛苦的重要技能。你能用你的感官(例如,嗅覺、味覺、觸覺)做哪些事來讓你平靜下來?」)總體而言,收到短信的人在 60 天後報告了他們的焦慮和抑鬱症狀有所改善。但這個項目似乎對拉丁裔用戶特別有益,他們報告說從短信中學到了新知識,也許是因為他們 。 Aguilera 的其他研究表明,當治療包括短信元素時,患者往往會更長時間地接受治療。這也許並不令人驚訝,因為我們幾乎所有人都整天粘著手機。「你是否曾經在感到沮喪或焦慮時給朋友發短信?」Pullmann 問道。答案幾乎肯定是肯定的。 就像在隨意交談中一樣,與治療師發短信既能帶來即時性的好處(你可以一出現困難情緒就發短信),又能帶來異步性的好處(另一端的人可以花時間仔細地回覆),Pullmann 說。 有些人可能還覺得用文字表達黑暗、令人尷尬或脆弱的想法更容易——研究一致發現,人們從中受益,Hull 指出。此外,他說,短信治療可能提供「狀態依賴學習」的優勢,這是心理學上的老原則,即在考試的房間裡學習考試效果最好。換句話說,當治療原則在人們實際需要這些洞察力的地方,比如在家或工作中傳達時,它們可能會更容易被吸收。 短信治療並不完美。兩家最大的線上提供商 Talkspace 和 BetterHelp 都面臨著批評,其中 Talkspace 被 指控即使治療師沒有空閒與他們會面,也會向用戶收取費用。(根據 Talkspace 的聲明,訴訟中的所有指控現在都已被駁回或解決。)在 2022 年的《華爾街日報》中,與 Talkspace 合作的提供商也批評了該平台提供的護理質量。 Talkspace 的首席醫療官 Nikole Benders-Hadi 博士在給 TIME 的聲明中表示,該平台的治療師都經過嚴格審核並持有執照,研究表明短信治療是有效的。「想象一下,讓患者始終可以隨時隨地與他們的治療師溝通,而不是壓抑情緒,等待下一次治療。」Benders-Hadi 在聲明中說。「最終,最重要的是要滿足患者的需求,讓他們選擇最適合他們參與治療方式。」 同時, BetterHelp 也因其不當的數據共享行為而被美國聯邦貿易委員會處以罰款。在 與 FTC 達成和解協議後,該公司表示,其「技術、政策和程序旨在保護和保護會員的信息安全,使其不會未經其批准和同意使用或共享。」 BetterHelp 最近也面臨著來自客戶的 社交媒體批評,他們稱該公司的臨床醫生給出了錯誤的建議或行為不當。BetterHelp 的發言人在給 TIME 的聲明中沒有直接回應這些指控,但強調該公司為客戶提供了「多種方式」與治療師聯繫,包括電話和視頻通話,並表示客戶只使用短信的情況「非常罕見」。 Hull 表示,對於任何形式的治療,都應該保持警惕。總會有好的治療師和壞的治療師,好的患者匹配和壞的患者匹配,無論約會是在私人診所進行還是通過 iPhone 進行。 「我不認為基於信息傳遞的治療會從根本上降低質量,」他說。越來越多的數據支持了他的觀點。 本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

餐廳如何迎合日益增多的單身食客

(SeaPRwire) -   紐約 — 来自旧金山的科学家和癌症研究员帕丽莎·伊马尼拉德已婚,并拥有广泛的朋友圈。但她每周都会有一两次独自外出用餐。 伊马尼拉德说,独自用餐让她有时间思考或阅读。她尽量不碰手机,享受着寂静。 “这就像一个水疗中心,但又不一样,”伊马尼拉德在最近一次在旧金山一家高档餐厅Spruce享用午餐时说道。 伊马尼拉德并不是唯一一个这样的人。根据餐厅预订网站OpenTable的数据,过去两年,美国单人用餐预订量增长了29%。德国今年增长了18%,英国增长了14%。 日本甚至有一个专门用于单人用餐的词语:“一人様”,意思是“独自一人”,但会在词语前后加上敬语,让独自用餐的人感到不那么犹豫。日本辣椒美食餐厅研究所在最近的一项调查中发现,23% 的日本人独自外出就餐,高于 2018 年的 18%。 因此,日本和其他地区的许多餐厅正在重新设计座位、更改菜单并添加其他特殊服务来吸引单人用餐者。 “即使是所谓的家庭餐厅也在增加面向独自用餐者的吧台座位,餐厅也提供份量更小的套餐,以便一个人用餐也能品尝到各种菜肴,”该研究所高级研究员稻垣正浩说道。 OpenTable首席执行官  认为  是这种增长的一个原因,因为用餐者希望从家庭办公室中解脱出来。但她认为还有更深层次的原因。 “我认为这是一场更广泛的自我爱和自我关怀运动,真正地……享受自己的陪伴,”苏说道。 宾夕法尼亚州立大学住宿管理教授安娜·马蒂拉说,新冠疫情也让社交互动  ,因此在吃饭时变得不那么重要。她说,智能手机帮助一些餐厅顾客即使独自一人也能与他人保持联系。 “社会规范已经改变。人们不再看着独自用餐者,然后想,‘你一定是孤独的,”马蒂拉说道。 这种增长发生在越来越多的人 的时候。皮尤研究中心在 2019 年发现,38% 的 25 至 54 岁的美国成年人没有伴侣,高于 1990 年的 29%。根据日本政府数据,日本单身家庭现在占总家庭的三分之一;预计到 2040 年将攀升至 40%。 对  的兴趣日益浓厚——尤其是在 55 岁及以上的旅行者中——也导致了 。 在最近一次独自前往瑞士琉森的旅行中,卡罗琳·雷被女主人带到一张美丽的湖景桌旁,桌子上摆着一只为一人准备的小花瓶,她感到震惊。JourneyWoman 的首席执行官兼编辑雷是一家面向 50 岁以上单身女性旅行者的网站,她说其他餐厅曾试图将她安排在后面的座位或直接询问是否有人会和她一起用餐。 雷建议独自用餐的女性,如果遭到粗鲁对待或被安排到糟糕的座位,就到别的地方去。 “这就像全世界还没有适应这种观念,即我们独自一人是因为我们想独自一人,我们独立自主,充满力量,”她说。“我们可以去任何我们想要的餐厅,享用一张单人桌,并为此感到自豪。” 休斯顿内容创作者兼餐厅评论家肖恩·辛格表示,他大约 70% 的时间都是独自用餐。如果独自外出用餐的想法令人畏惧,他建议去吃午餐而不是晚餐——因为午餐时餐桌通常挤满了人群——或者在工作日早些时候去。 “如果你想去看一家你一直想去很久的餐厅,最好的方式就是独自去,”辛格说。“如果我在下午 5 点独自去,我还没有被任何一家餐厅拒绝过。” 餐厅并不总是乐于为只有一位用餐者的餐桌安排座位,因为这样可以容纳更多人。一家米其林星级伦敦餐厅,Hotel Café Royal 的 Alex Dilling,去年因对独自用餐的顾客收取与两位顾客相同的费用而引起轰动。其包括鱼子酱和康沃尔鱿鱼的八道菜晚餐品尝菜单每人收费 215 英镑(280 美元)。 这家餐厅只有 34 个座位,没有回应置评请求。但其网站不允许预订少于两人的人数。 其他餐厅表示,让一个人坐在一张两人桌值得,因为独自用餐者往往是忠实的回头客。 “虽然短期内可能会损失一些钱,但我认为我们正在进行长远打算,并将自己打造成一个真正特别的地方,”Overthrow Hospitality 的首席运营官德鲁·布雷迪说道,该公司在纽约经营着 11 家素食餐厅。 布雷迪说,自新冠疫情以来,  ,男性和女性各占一半。在该公司的旗舰餐厅 Avant Garden,他们占顾客的比例高达 8%。 作为回应,该餐厅与餐厅技术和咨询公司 Lightspeed 合作,开发了一项单人用餐计划。Avant Garden 现在有一张为独自用餐者设计的宽敞桌子,提供 65 美元的四道菜菜单,菜单设计成护照的形式,以增强冒险感。如果独自用餐者点了鸡尾酒,调酒师会在桌边调制。 宾夕法尼亚州立大学的马蒂拉说,餐厅可能需要考虑额外的变化。她的研究发现,独自用餐者更喜欢棱角分明的形状——例如灯光、桌子或盘子——而不是圆形形状,圆形形状更多地与群体之间的联系有关。他们也更喜欢慢节奏的音乐。 Sojourn Philly 的创始人吉尔·韦伯是一家拥有两家餐厅和一家酒吧的费城公司,她说她在一些特殊活动(如品酒会)上添加公共餐桌,以便个人有一个聚集的地方。她也不提供针对两人的特价菜品。 韦伯也是一名考古学家,她喜欢在旅行时独自用餐。 “独自用餐有一种独特的感觉,你不需要为去哪里吃饭以及所有相关的事情达成一致。你可以想待多久就待多久,想点什么就点什么,沉醉其中,”她说。“有时它也让人感觉很勇敢。” ___ 杜宾在底特律报道。东京的由里·加贺山、伦敦的凯尔文·陈和旧金山的哈文·戴利对此文有贡献。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

GMG Provides Update on Modular Graphene Production Plant & Capital Expenditure

Brisbane, Queensland, Australia--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - September 3, 2024) - Graphene Manufacturing Group Limited (TSXV: GMG) ("GMG" or the "Company") is pleased to announce this business update on its recently commissioned Modular Graphene Production Plant at Richlands, Australia.Figure 1: Graphene Production Plant Project TeamTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/8082/221932_ac9be57c04a1b96c_001full.jpgThe newly commissioned Graphene Production Plant as seen in Figure 1 has been operating and producing Graphene since its commissioning date in December 2023.The performance of the production unit has exceeded the Company's expectations in both graphene production rate and graphene quality. The Company continues to perform minor optimisations with this new production plant which have both increased production yield and quality of the graphene.The Company has also authorised a total of AU$250k of capital expenditure for new equipment for quality assurance and quality control purposes of the Company's graphene for its Graphene Aluminium Ion Battery and its liquid graphene products, THERMAL-XR® and G® Lubricant. The equipment being procured by the Company includes: a Raman Spectrometer and a Particle Size Analyzer amongst others. These are sophisticated analytical and characterisation laboratory equipment which will be operated by GMG scientists and technicians. To date the Company has been fortunate to work with various Universities to obtain this analysis. Once the equipment is procured, delivered, commissioned and operational the Company will largely be self-sufficient on testing of its nano materials.GMG's Managing Director and CEO, Craig Nicol, commented: "We are very excited to see the new modular plant exceed expectations in terms of graphene production and quality. The expansion of our graphene characterisation equipment will also reduce learning loop times for optimisation projects where we no longer have to wait for University equipment access. The graphene production system uses GMG's self developed innovative plasma technology which creates the high quality graphene GMG's end products need to deliver their notable benefits."GMG's Chairman and Director, Jack Perkowski, commented: "It is great to see the Company's production technology maturing to this point as this is GMG's fundamental core competency. Ongoing graphene production and characterisation developments will only support the Company's ability to develop and provide its useful liquid graphene products and Graphene Aluminium Ion Battery."About GMG www.graphenemg.comGMG is a clean-technology company which seeks to offer energy saving and energy storage solutions, enabled by graphene, including that manufactured in-house via a proprietary production process.GMG has developed a proprietary production process to decompose natural gas (i.e. methane) into its elements, carbon (as graphene), hydrogen and some residual hydrocarbon gases. This process produces high quality, low cost, scalable, 'tuneable' and low/no contaminant graphene suitable for use in clean-technology and other applications. The Company's present focus is to de-risk and develop commercial scale-up capabilities, and secure market applications.In the energy savings segment, GMG has focused on graphene enhanced heating, ventilation and air conditioning ("HVAC-R") coating (or energy-saving paint), lubricants and fluids. In the energy storage segment, GMG and the University of Queensland are working collaboratively with financial support from the Australian Government to progress R&D and commercialization of G+AI Batteries.For further information please contact:Craig Nicol, Chief Executive Officer & Managing Director of the Company at craig.nicol@graphenemg.com, +61 415 445 223Leo Karabelas at Focus Communications Investor Relations, leo@fcir.ca, +1 647 689 6041Neither the TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accept responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this news release.Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements This news release includes certain statements and information that may constitute forward-looking information within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities laws.

The app updates that bring these changes are often the result of a complex, time-consuming and resource-intensive process.

NEC Launches new system using Biometric Authentication Technology

TOKYO, Sept 3, 2024 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - NEC Corporation (TSE: 6701) will launch a new system using biometric authentication technology that is capable of quickly authenticating large numbers of people at one time, even while they are in motion. The system is expected to accelerate admission and reduce congestion for busy events and infrastructure. NEC will begin providing the system globally in September 2024, initially focusing on Japan, the United States, and Singapore.NEC’s new system using Biometric Authentication TechnologyIn recent years, the number of visitors to airports, train stations, tourist attractions and other amusement facilities in Japan has been rising sharply. At the same time, however, facility expansions and additions to alleviate congestion have not kept pace. At airports in particular, the number of passengers in Japan is projected to double (*) by 2041 compared to 2019, and there is a need to improve the efficiency of passenger services.Conventionally, when large numbers of people have converged on areas such as theme parks, offices, factories, etc., heavy amounts of congestion have occurred, together with long lines at flapper gates and security screening areas.This new system features NEC’s world-class face recognition technology and matching technology, which evaluates the characteristics of movement and clothing to quickly detect persons in designated areas. Furthermore, the system can continue to biometrically identify persons even as they pass through crowded areas.In addition, the system can authenticate large numbers of people while they are in motion, including as many as 100 persons per minute in real time. Since the system does not require gates, as is the case with conventional admission control systems, it reduces lines and congestion without expanding or adding to existing facilities, thereby improving convenience and efficiency.When a person whose face image has not been registered attempts to pass, the system can provide visual alerts on a display or illumination installed overhead or on the floor.Authentication Flow of the new system using Biometric Authentication TechnologyNEC introduced this system for employees at its headquarters in Tokyo in July 2024.System features1. Simultaneous authentication of multiple people in real timeThis system enables simultaneous authentication of a large number of people in real time and allows users to pass through without stopping, thereby improving authentication efficiency.
