TWICE PICKS 2022 Audeze LLC AUEZE FILTER Audeze FILTER is a speaker designed for the digital nomad and first to feature Planar Magnetic Drivers. 58% of workers expect to be in the office less than 10 days per month. Conference call speakerphones in the market were designed for big conference rooms and are bulky. FILTER connects seamlessly to video conferencing systems and provides crystal clear audio input and output. It adapts to any situation, from home to office to hotel rooms to bigger conference rooms. FILTER is the size of a typical mobile phone (11 mm thick) and can easily slip into a backpack or briefcase. FILTER has proprietary DSP for enhanced clarity & intelligibility during calls. FILTER offers the most clarity possible when on a call thanks to its in-depth neural network. This network has been trained to recognize over 500,000 common sounds and prevent them from being heard by those on the call. These sounds include the noise from vacuum cleaners, fans and air conditioners, pets, and even crying babies. All of these sounds are removed inside FILTER itself, meaning they aren’t going to disrupt important conversations and don’t require any outboard software. FILTER is the first conference speaker to utilize Audeze’s signature planar magnetic technology. FILTER can generate audiophile-grade sound out of its custom-built driver without distortion, thanks to Audeze’s patented Uniforce ultra-thin diaphragm and Fluxor magnet array. FILTER has several patented/patent pending technologies developed by Audeze. FILTER’s MEMS microphones for voice pickup are located on the nulls of the Planar speaker to eliminate echo and feedback. (Utility Patent Pending). FILTER has Audeze’s lightweight Uniforce Diaphragm for more accurate sound and reduced distortion. (US Patent 9,432,788 ). FILTER also features Audeze’s Fluxor Magnet array for improved efficiency and greater loudness possibility. (US Patent 9,287,029 ). FILTER is capable of picking up voices and blocking out background noise. One of the most annoying issues during a conference call is the background noise (baby crying, construction, keyboard noises, etc.). FILTER features a neural network based noise cancellation algorithm (in hardware) that eliminates the noises and echo for the best conference calls. The neural network has been trained on over half a million noise samples to identify and eliminate both stationary and non-stationary noises. Compared to traditional beamforming found in most other solutions, FILTER’s beamforming is extremely sharp and defined. As a result users can enjoy clear and accurate voice pickup with zero background noise. FILTER also has inbuilt voice processing for dynamic range control (removes clipping) and acoustic echo cancellation. FILTER can easily fit into any bag or even a pocket. It’s also compatible with all operating systems and apps, as it uses both Bluetooth and wired USB connections.

TWICE PICKS 2022 GAF Energy TIMBERLINE SOLAR ENERGY SHINGLES (ES) With the launch of the Timberline Solar Energy Shingle (ES), GAF Energy is introducing the world’s first nailable solar energy shingle. The Timberline Solar ES installs as easily as a traditional roofing shingle, providing a clean aesthetic look and warrantied protection from the elements while generating solar energy for homeowners. The Timberline Solar ES is a major step forward in making solar roofs accessible to the mass market and scaling residential clean energy adoption. Unlike traditional, rack-mounted solar panels, the Timberline Solar ES can be installed with only a nail gun, resulting in the fastest residential rooftop solar install time of any in-market option. When compared with large, rigid solar panels, the product’s compact form factor enables better solar performance in shaded conditions. Leading indicators suggest that the Timberline Solar ES outperforms the energy production of traditional rack-mounted solar systems in real-world conditions. The overall speed and ease of installation of Timberline Solar makes it highly attractive to roofing contractors looking to grow their businesses. Given the scale of the roofing industry and the consistent demand for roof replacements, a solar roof that directly competes with standard roofing options also promises to accelerate clean energy adoption while helping small- and medium-sized, often family-owned roofing businesses address growing consumer interest in clean energy options. The product’s unique installation and performance are substantiated by a certification milestone with UL, the global safety certification organization. GAF Energy is the first company to receive UL 7103 certification for building-integrated photovoltaic solar roofing products, which authorizes roofers to install on residential roofs as a roofing and solar energy product—the first of its kind to be recognized as both. In a sense, this makes Timberline Solar the world’s first true solar roof. The Timberline Solar ES combines innovation with accessibility in consumer pricing to provide significant benefits to homeowners. With solar energy generated directly from the roof, homeowners can significantly reduce their electric bills and even see returns on the roof over time, depending on average energy usage, location, and other variables. Because the Timberline Solar ES acts as a roofing product, with no separate racking as with traditional solar panels, the shingle is an attractive solar option for the 5 million U.S. homeowners who install a new roof every year. With Timberline Solar, GAF Energy is ushering in a new era of residential solar, where homeowners can choose a superior roofing product that also generates electricity for the home. Given that GAF Energy’s sister company, GAF, is the largest roofing company in North America — installing one in every four roofs in the U.S. —the technology has the potential to create a seismic shift in clean energy adoption. As GAF Energy is able to convert more and more of these millions of new roofs to solar roofs with the Timberline Solar ES, it will catalyze an order-of-magnitude increase in solar deployment.

L’Oréal COLORSONIC BY L’ORÉAL Colorsonic is a lightweight, handheld device that uses an innovative, mess-free process to mix haircolor and apply it evenly, delivering consistent haircolor results for consumers at home. L’Oréal’s founder invented the world’s first safe, synthetic haircolor formulation and commercialized it more than 100 years ago. Now, the company is using cutting-edge science and technology to transform the industry it created and solve consumers’ biggest challenges around both the athome and in-salon hair color experience. Developed in response to these consumer needs and refined over a five-year period, Colorsonic uses a custom mixer mechanism to combine a precise amount of developer and formula to create a haircolor. The device then dispenses the right dose of haircolor and applies it to the hair via an oscillating nozzle of bristles as they move in a zigzag pattern to evenly distribute it on the hair. In five steps, the consumer can: 1. Select a haircolor out of 40 shades on the Colorsonic website. The resorcinol, ammonia, and PPD-free haircolor kit is conveniently shipped directly to homes. 2. Load color cartridge into device for on-demand color mixing. The color and developer are kept separate until the device is turned on, a critical component to preserving the color and keeping it fresh. 3. Brush device from roots to ends for uniform color application. The oscillating nozzle—tested rigorously to prevent leaking, over saturation, and dripping—moves 300 times per minute to effectively cover hair quickly. An attachment is also included for those with long hair (shoulder length or longer). 4. Wait 30 minutes. Then rinse, style, and go. 5. Remove cartridge from device and store the remaining color, for easy touch-ups anytime. The cartridge system allows Colorsonic to store the remaining color for touch-ups and gray coverage.

Looking Glass Factory LOOKING GLASS PORTRAIT Looking Glass Portrait -- the world’s first and only personal holographic interface that allows for group viewability – is designed to offer a more natural way to interact with 3D environments. As the world increasingly focuses on the metaverse, Looking Glass is bringing the digital world into the real-world – unbeholden to bulky headsets and glasses. While VR and AR will have their uses, for the metaverse to be a place of true engagement, collaboration, and even commerce, people must be able to “enter” and “exit” seamlessly…whenever they want. There will be four major components of how holograms will be critical to the Metaverse. • Memories captured in time represented in 3D • Digital objects brought into the real world in real time, e.g., product design, collaboration, art, real time digital performance • Holographic real-time communication • Shared experiences e.g, concerts, museums and sporting events will be brought into the home in 3D Designed for the millions of creators who are ready to own the third dimension -- and ultimately, co-create the metaverse -- Looking Glass Portrait works with or without a computer, functioning as a holographic creation tool or 3D viewing portal. The system is powered by proprietary light field technology that works by generating between 45 and 100 views of a three-dimensional scene and 23

TWICE PICKS 2022 projecting those perspectives simultaneously. As a result, multiple people can view full-color, dynamic, three-dimensional holograms in free space -- without AR/VR headgear. Featuring a sleek 5.31”x6.65”x4.13” form factor consisting of ABS, polycarbonates, glass, and a proprietary lens mix, Portrait inserts a modern touch into any home or office. With built-in 3D creation tools, anyone can make holograms to display on Portrait -- from capturing holograms via smartphone to bringing existing 2D images into the third dimension and beyond. Boasting a 7.9” display and 58-degree viewing cone, its affordable price, compact size and portability yield the potential for massive scale in which Portrait is not only integrated into modern smartphones, but available in every home, workplace, retail establishment and corner kiosk. Until now, holographic displays needed powerful gaming laptops to run even the simplest holographic media. Looking Glass Portrait can still work in a tethered mode with PCs and Macs -- but it is the first system with an additional Standalone Mode, thanks to a built-in computer (Raspberry Pi 4) and a proprietary holographic software stack that can run high-fidelity recorded holographic media at 60fps. Portrait is not only cultivating a new generation of holographic exploration but inspiring a more inclusive, more practical vision for the metaverse. Doing things like preserving memories as holograms and even communicating holographically -- in real time -- are no longer figments of science fiction, but coming soon. Portrait is leading the way. Available from just $399, Looking Glass Portrait not only realizes the potential for holographic technology but embodies a vision of a frictionless, decentralized, and easily accessible metaverse of tomorrow.

TWICE PICKS 2022 OMRON Healthcare HYPERTENSION PLUS Hypertension Plus is a remote patient monitoring service from OMRON Healthcare, providing a new way of managing hypertension in a patient and connecting them to a physician and care team. Launched in March 2021, Hypertension Plus makes hypertension management more efficient and reduces risk faster by automatically coding blood pressure readings, providing evidence-based support, guiding active condition management, and enabling remote approval of medication titrations in the UK. Hypertension Plus by OMRON is based on the TASMINH research studies, which demonstrated that significant reductions in blood pressure can occur through remote monitoring titration. By using automated titration recommendations, Hypertension Plus allows for more monitoring and more data, reduces the need for office visits, helps the patient make progress faster to reduce risk, and helps the physician to focus more time on those facing higher health risks. With the Hypertension Plus app, a patient can input and track their blood pressure data over time. The app allows a patient to view the Doctor Dashboard and record their numbers to monitor high-level trends for behaviors that might be factoring into increased risk. It enables a patient to work remotely with their physician to manage their condition. Medication decisions and actions are communicated to users through the app. Automated reminders and scheduled condition management actions keep the patient engaged. If a patient records unusual blood pressure readings, the Hypertension Plus app will prompt them to wait at least five minutes, then take another reading. If the data is beyond the limits set by the physician, an alert is added to the Doctor Dashboard. This feature helps prioritize the patient, so the physician can view status, the medication plan, and blood pressure history and act on more urgent cases. This timely action reduces risk and is key to OMRON’s mission of Going for Zero heart attacks and strokes. According to a study from Public Health England, high blood pressure is the third biggest risk for all diseases after smoking and poor diet. Half of people with high blood pressure are not diagnosed and do not receive treatment to reduce their risk. In the UK, there are more than five million hypertensive people undiagnosed. OMRON is partnering with forward-thinking clinical commissioning groups and physician practices including Dorset, North-West London, and Cheshire, to introduce Hypertension Plus and advance meaningful change to how chronic care is managed in the UK.

Speck Products PRESIDIO PRO FOLIO FOR MAGSAFE When Apple launched MagSafe in 2020, it created an opportunity for accessory makers to interpret how users would interact with the connection and charging system. When approaching the design for Presidio Pro Folio for MagSafe, Speck’s goal was to engineer a product that would address consumer pain points, such as tangled cords, potential damage to the charger, and device usability while charging, without jeopardizing the functionality of MagSafe. Following Speck’s essentialism design philosophy, the team set out to create a product in which every piece of the design serves a purpose without adding any superfluous details. Designed with both the work from home and on-the-go consumer in mind, Presidio Pro Folio for MagSafe is Speck’s all-in-one solution for organizing and protecting Apple’s charging system. With its slim and portable folio cover, Presidio Pro Folio for MagSafe turns your MagSafe charger into an adjustable stand, allowing users to charge their device on-the-go, while simultaneously acting as a multi-angle viewing stand. The body of the folio is perfectly sized to hold the MagSafe charging cord perfectly, and a discreet flap secures the charging connection to prevent wear and tear. When not in use, the folio cover folds shut, protecting the MagSafe charger from damage. Innovation is at the forefront of the ideation and production of Presidio Pro Folio with MagSafe. As the number one iPad case seller in the US, Speck’s design team tapped into its previous success within the folio market to identify an all new category of iPhone accessories where consumers could utilize its technology. Due to the team’s ability to identify this market gap, Speck is the very first mobile device accessory company to produce a cable management solution and fully functioning folio for Apple’s MagSafe charger.

TWICE PICKS 2022 Speck Products PRESIDIO2 GRIP COMPATIBLE WITH MAGSAFE When Apple introduced MagSafe in 2020, it created an entirely new way to interact, charge and accessorize the iPhone. This innovation, while welcomed, presents a challenge for casemakers to navigate how to ensure their products are compatible with MagSafe and the opportunities it creates. Speck’s Presidio Grip case has been a fan favorite for years and its raised, 45 degree angle grip design is not only iconic, but synonymous with Speck. However, it quickly became clear that to accommodate the MagSafe magnet array, Speck needed to make significant changes to its existing Presidio Grip design. The biggest challenge was making the back of the case thin enough to accommodate the magnets without interfering with the MagSafe connection. After much trial and error, Speck’s designers decided to invert the grip design on the back of the case in order to uphold the iconic design without affecting any of the features of the device or case. Speck’s design philosophy follows the principles of essentialism, meaning that nothing is added to the design that doesn’t add to the functionality. When faced with the challenge of adding MagSafe compatibility, Speck is unwavering in their commitment to not subtract any of the existing features of the case. Speck designs never compromise on protection, style or functionality. The result is Presidio2 Grip Compatible with MagSafe, now 20% thinner than previous designs with the same 13 ft. drop protection and full MagSafe compatibility. Raised grips on the outside of the case provide the same no-slip grip and the inverted grips give a tactile hand feel. With great longevity, durability and a strong grip, this case was designed with its user in mind, now providing more confidence when texting, talking, or taking photos.

Generac Power Systems PWRGENERATOR The Generac PWRgenerator is a revolution in home energy security, exclusively from Generac. When sunlight is unavailable or insufficient, this DC-coupled generator rapidly recharges the PWRcell Battery to keep homes powered for the long term when the grid is down. Because PWRgenerators are designed to be run more frequently and for longer periods, they are quieter, more fuel efficient and have extraordinarily long service cycles. The net result is true energy independence for homeowners who are at risk of power outages or subject to rate hikes from the utility. A first-of-its-kind, new addition to the PWRcell Solar + Battery Storage family, PWRgenerator connects directly to the PWRcell inverter, essentially creating a residential nano-grid allowing a home to be fully energy independent. PWRgenerator, when combined with a properly sized solar and battery storage system, delivers a complete level of energy independence, allowing homeowners to control and own their power. During the day, the solar panels provide power to the home and the excess can charge the battery. During the night, the battery discharges and if it reaches 30% state of charge, PWRgenerator will turn on and fully charge the battery in about 1 hour. In addition, PWRgenerator is designed to be extremely quiet and fuel efficient, running on either natural gas or LP. This system also offers the ultimate in clean power outage protection. The PWRgenerator is also compatible with the PWRview app, which gives homeowners a view of their generator’s status and production alongside their solar array and battery. The PWRgenerator is also Smart Grid Ready, which means that it is able to work as part of a virtual power plant (VPP). Customers who are enrolled in VPP programs can leverage their PWRgenerator to quickly and seamlessly sell power back to the grid and offset their energy costs. The PWRgenerator still functions as traditional power backup devices, powering the home or business in the event of a power outage, but it can also enable the sale of power back to the grid in times of peak demand, reducing the amount of strain on the grid and offsetting a portion of asset owners’ monthly energy expenses.

RESIDENTIAL SYSTEMS PICKS 2022 Generac Power Systems PWRMANAGER Generac’s all-new PWRmanager is an innovative solar energy-optimization product that enables homeowners to run their entire home on stored sunshine in the battery without making lifestyle compromises. The device is the newest load management system for Generac’s renowned PWRcell Energy Storage System and unlocks whole home power by automatically controlling and sequencing which circuits and appliances receive power when the home is disconnected from the grid in a power outage event. The PWRmanager enables batteries to work smarter, not harder, so fewer batteries can power the home for longer. This easy-to-install load management device integrates seamlessly with PWRcell, dramatically improving system performance. By controlling which circuits and appliances receive power, PWRmanager gives homeowners total flexibility by allowing them to use their phone or tablet to simply “swipe” off/on any circuits in their home. This can extend battery runtime during prolonged power outages by de-energizing less important circuits. And for homeowners who want to run their homes on stored sunshine on a daily basis, PWRmanager is designed to provide an uncompromised experience that other solar and battery systems simply cannot. PWRmanager is designed as an easy-to-install device and does not require a new load panel. Rather, it installs next to the home’s existing electrical panel in as little as 90 minutes. Additionally, PWRmanager is priced lower than other similar products and integrates seamlessly with the PWRcell system and PWRview app. PWRmanager automates control of up to twelve 120V circuits or six 240V circuits, plus two thermostats. In a power outage, every bit of battery power is important. PWRmanager makes choices about how and when appliances get power on your behalf, so that you have the best outage experience possible and do not have to compromise on comfort or lifestyle.

Generac Power Systems PWRMICROS Generac PWRmicros are solar microinverter solutions that allow homeowners to take advantage of the full potential output of their solar array. Introduced are the Generac PWRmicro 2:1-a dual module, 720W microinverter- and the Generac PWRmicro 1:1- a single module microinverter. The PWRmicro 2:1 controls two PV modules at once, boasting greater power ratings than many competing products and enabling newer and significantly higher-powered solar modules. Furthermore, both units can be used without “clipping” array output, which leaves valuable energy production on the table. PWRmicros are designed to provide solar installers with a fast and simplified installation process, relative to the installation of other solar systems on the market. Because the PWRmicro 2:1 controls two PV modules at once, installers can install half the number of devices to control the same size array, providing a significant time savings. Installers can accelerate installation times and simplify wiring through integrated grounding, modular bus cabling, and the ability to support up to 20 PV modules on a single 30A branch circuit. Additionally, these two models of microinverter are compatible, which means that installers can mix-and-match PWRmicro 1:1 and PWRmicro 2:1 devices for ultimate design flexibility to cover any roof. Generac PWRmicros mark a significant step forward in cost-effective and high-performance microinverter technology. These products will help system owners harvest more energy and maximize the value generated by their investment.

TECHRADAR PRO PICKS 2022 FluentPet FLUENTPET CONNECT FluentPet, the company that is revolutionizing interspecies communication, announces its newest product line, FluentPet Connect, which will be available this spring. This new product in the burgeoning Intelligent Pet category launches less than 18 months after the original FluentPet HexTile system hit the market and went viral online, leading to more than $7M in sales of sound buttons and HexTiles. The new upgrades in design and smart functionality both track learners’ progress in real-time and further develop a community to share milestones with fellow owners across the globe with the new connected FluentPet mobile application. The FluentPet Connect’s upgrades in design and smart functionality were developed in close collaboration with FluentPet’s user community, which has been asking for a way to track learners’ progress over time. Rather than individual sound buttons that each have their own microphone and speaker, FluentPet Connect features a single high-fidelity speaker in a WiFi-connected “Base” HexTile that includes space for the addition of up to six easily pressed buttons. Dogs, cats, and other learners can press on the programmable and customizable buttons to communicate words like “play,” “potty,” “outside” and “water.” To grow the soundboard, FluentPet also releases “Expansion” HexTiles that connect wirelessly to any Base HexTile, allowing for communication soundboards located throughout the home that can feature potentially hundreds of “semantic buttons” that each represent a different concept. FluentPet Connect also allows its user community to more easily track and share milestones with other “button teachers” across the globe via a new FluentPet mobile app which will be available in Apple’s App Store and Google Play store. Both the Base and Expansion HexTiles can feature color customization for easier visual recognition with affixable faceplates, supporting the organization of a multi-word word “vocabularies” across more than six different word categories. The FluentPet Connect also features a durable moisture-resistant design enabling users and their dogs and cats to use and grow their FluentPet vocabulary over years of button learning. The Base HexTile’s lithium battery is designed to last over three weeks with routine use and can be used while charging via USB-C. The FluentPet Connect HexTile System Base ($69.95) and the FluentPet Connect HexTile System Extensions ($49.95) will be available for preorder on the FluentPet website and will begin shipping Spring 2022.

TECHRADAR PRO PICKS 2022 GAF Energy TIMBERLINE SOLAR ENERGY SHINGLES (ES) With the launch of the Timberline Solar Energy Shingle (ES), GAF Energy is introducing the world’s first nailable solar energy shingle. The Timberline Solar ES installs as easily as a traditional roofing shingle, providing a clean aesthetic look and warrantied protection from the elements while generating solar energy for homeowners. The Timberline Solar ES is a major step forward in making solar roofs accessible to the mass market and scaling residential clean energy adoption. Unlike traditional, rack-mounted solar panels, the Timberline Solar ES can be installed with only a nail gun, resulting in the fastest residential rooftop solar install time of any in-market option. When compared with large, rigid solar panels, the product’s compact form factor enables better solar performance in shaded conditions. Leading indicators suggest that the Timberline Solar ES outperforms the energy production of traditional rack-mounted solar systems in real-world conditions. The overall speed and ease of installation of Timberline Solar makes it highly attractive to roofing contractors looking to grow their businesses. Given the scale of the roofing industry and the consistent demand for roof replacements, a solar roof that directly competes with standard roofing options also promises to accelerate clean energy adoption while helping small- and medium-sized, often family-owned roofing businesses address growing consumer interest in clean energy options. The product’s unique installation and performance are substantiated by a certification milestone with UL, the global safety certification organization. GAF Energy is the first company to receive UL 7103 certification for building-integrated photovoltaic solar roofing products, which authorizes roofers to install on residential roofs as a roofing and solar energy product—the first of its kind to be recognized as both. In a sense, this makes Timberline Solar the world’s first true solar roof. The Timberline Solar ES combines innovation with accessibility in consumer pricing to provide significant benefits to homeowners. With solar energy generated directly from the roof, homeowners can significantly reduce their electric bills and even see returns on the roof over time, depending on average energy usage, location, and other variables. Because the Timberline Solar ES acts as a roofing product, with no separate racking as with traditional solar panels, the shingle is an attractive solar option for the 5 million U.S. homeowners who install a new roof every year. With Timberline Solar, GAF Energy is ushering in a new era of residential solar, where homeowners can choose a superior roofing product that also generates electricity for the home. Given that GAF Energy’s sister company, GAF, is the largest roofing company in North America — installing one in every four roofs in the U.S. —the technology has the potential to create a seismic shift in clean energy adoption. As GAF Energy is able to convert more and more of these millions of new roofs to solar roofs with the Timberline Solar ES, it will catalyze an order-of-magnitude increase in solar deployment.

Rendever RENDEVERFIT RendeverFit™ is a virtual reality (VR) application created by Rendever, the leading VR platform built to help seniors overcome social isolation through shared experiences. RendeverFit™is the first VR platform that combines physical fitness with cognitive stimulation and socialization, designed specifically for seniors. Physical activity reduces the negative impacts of chronic conditions and diseases, all while improving mental health. For seniors, physical activity is even more important having been tied to the delay of onset of dementia, as well as reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease, strokes and diabetes. RendeverFit™ takes it a step further to help seniors form healthy relationships with physical exercise sparking an effective change in their habits. There are three modules within the RendeverFit™platform, including Cycle, Paddle and Paint, that allow older adults living in senior living communities to gain the benefits of exercise without realizing they’re working out. In Cycle, the mind and body come together as seniors bike through beautiful landscapes with their friends. They can reach out and pop colored balloons, compete for high scores or just enjoy the scenery. Paddle allows users to develop their swing through target practice on a gorgeous remote island. Seniors can celebrate their wins and see how much they’ve improved by watching themselves climb through the ranks on the leaderboard. The Paint module combines creativity and physical mobility using MultiBrush, the first available multiplayer version of Tilt Brush that the company released in February 2021. Participants can move around their virtual canvas creating and interacting with their masterpieces. RendeverFit™ engages residents through encouraging safe, full-body movements motivated by the engaging virtual activities, while also providing the seniors in a community a shared experience that brings them closer together. It was created to address the reasons that drive widespread physical inactivity in older adults, but RendeverFit™ has the added benefit of combatting loneliness and social isolation, which can put seniors at risk for premature mortality. Residents can get creative and have friendly competition with their neighbors, allowing for friendships to form and strengthen their sense of community. With social isolation correlating to a 30% increase in mortality rates, the added impact of community building - which is what the company is widely known for - is an essential element. RendeverFit™ is a revolutionary VR platform that positively impacts seniors’ physical, mental and emotional well-being. For more information: https://www.rendever.com/rendeverfit 81
