ADATA debuts enterprise storage brand TRUSTA

Industrial-grade SSDs

ADATA Industrial, on the other hand, has introduced industrial-grade SSDs. These are built specifically for AI and big data applications’ workloads.

The SSDs feature 218-layer 3D TLC NAND and support U.2 and PCIe Gen5/Gen4 interfaces, delivering ultra-fast, low-latency data access.

Designed for AI servers, big data analytics, and edge computing, the drives offer exceptional endurance, efficiency, and scalable capacity to meet next-generation infrastructure demands.

Memory and storage for AI PC performance

Moreover, ADATA continues to push the limits of high-performance memory with DDR5 LPCAMM2, designed for next-gen laptops.

It supports speeds up to 8,533MT/s and capacities up to 64GB. This solution meets the growing bandwidth and capacity demands of AI-driven edge computing.

ADATA has also introduced products like the Gen5 SM2P51E8 M.2 2280 solid-state drive, offering transfer speeds of up to 11,000 MB/s.

AI computing, visual navigation for Smart Healthcare

Meanwhile, in the Smart Living Zone, ADATA has an AI autonomous mobile robot co-developed with NVIDIA and Advantech.

This leverages the latest NVIDIA Isaac Perceptor Technology for a highly integrated, high-performance AI solution.

It combines ADATA’s expertise in robotic chassis manufacturing, NVIDIA Omniverse libraries for robot simulation, and Advantech’s strengths in edge computing system integration and sensor pre-installation.

The robot may be used in medical environments, which is aligned with ADATA’s vision for Smart Healthcare.

Diverse mobile storage, embedded solutions

Aside from the robot, the zone features a series of new mobile storage products, including the Thunderbolt 5-supported Project TITAN external SSDs.

This SSD has speeds up to 6,000MB/s and has a DisplayPort video output. Meanwhile, the SE940 offers 4,000MB/s performance and a clamp design for direct use with mobile and camera rigs.

Furthermore, the SR800 Magnetic combines storage, charging, and magnetic attachment in one device, with 2,000GB storage and a built-in 5,000mAh battery.

There’s also the SR830 with fingerprint security, and the SD820 with IP68 dust, water, and shock resistance.

Cooling innovations

For gaming and other intensive tasks, ADATA has also unveiled the MARS series. It is one of the industry’s most advanced Gen5 SSD cooling solutions.

The series consists of the MARS 980 STORM, MARS 980 PRO, and MARS 980 BLADE. All models use PCIe Gen5 x4 and reach up to 14,000 / 13,000 MB/s.

The storm uses a patented hybrid cooling system combining liquid and air. The Pro, meanwhile, adopts active cooling with aluminum fins and built-in fan.

Moreover, the BLADE is tailored for thin devices, using a 6nm controller from TSMC.

XPG is also pushing overclocking to new heights with Project INFINITY which delivers up to 9,200MT/s and comes with 48GB capacity per module.

For professional workloads, the AICORE RDIMM reaches 7,200MT/s with 64GB modules, offering stable performance under heavy AI and data tasks.

Lastly, LANCER CUDIMM, equipped with CKD chips, hits an incredible 9,733MT/s and uses 80% recycled aluminum.

SFF-ready platforms for GeForce RTX 50 Series

Finally, XPG is debuting its latest SFF-ready platform for high-performance compact builds.

The NVIDIA-certified VALOR AIR NANO and VALOR MESH NANO Micro-ATX cases deliver an exceptional balance of efficient cooling and optimized space.

XPG is also introducing the new PYMCORE SFX PSU series, compliant with ATX 3.1 meeting the power demands of high-end GPUs.

This ultra-compact SFX PSU can be installed at the front of the VALOR AIR and MESH NANO chassis. That allows longer GPUs to fit into SFF builds without compromising performance.

Several months ago, you might remember that OBSBOT revealed the Tiny 3 series of web cameras.

Six months after, they also unveil the all-new Meet Flip. From the name itself, it’s the company’s latest foldable 4K webcam that puts hardware privacy front and center.

Foldable and pocketable

Despite weighing just 37.7 grams, the Meet Flip aims to deliver premium webcam features for all types of users. Be it remote workers, professionals, or content creators.

Undoubtedly, the biggest highlight has got to be the webcam’s folding design. Not only it’s portable, it protects your privacy too.

Closing the device physically blocks the lens, giving users a visual confirmation that the camera is no longer active. When it’s time for a meeting, simply unfold it and it’s ready to go.

That lightweight body also features a built-in mounting clip that works with laptops, monitors, and tripods. Users can mount it in landscape, portrait, or even upside-down orientations depending on their setup.

Despite that absurd amount of lightweightness, the OBSBOT Meet Flip is still able to house a 1/2-inch Exmor RS stacked CMOS sensor with Quad Bayer technology. That’s something more commonly found among bigger and higher-end web cameras.

Other camera features include:

4K video recording / 30fps
1080p recording / up to 60fps
HDR support for challenging lighting
Phase Detection Autofocus (PDAF)
4x digital zoom
f/1.8 aperture with ISO 100-6400 support for low-light environments

Beyond just video calls

The OBSBOT Meet Flip isn’t just packed with serious camera hardware, it’s seriously intelligent as well.

The Meet Flip supports AI Auto Framing. This automatically keeps users centered during meetings — regardless if they are presenting alone or with a group. Gesture controls also let users activate framing or adjust zoom without touching the keyboard or mouse.

Another standout feature is AI Magic Notes which provides real-time meeting transcription and automatically generates summaries, action items, and key discussion points.

The feature works with Google Meet, Zoom, and Microsoft Teams through OBSBOT Center. Every webcam includes complimentary transcription of 120 minutes.

With that being mentioned, OBSBOT Center also makes users gain access to software features such as background blur, virtual backgrounds, beauty mode, and picture-in-picture overlays for presentations.

Those who want more advanced controls can enable Smart Eye Tracking, teleprompter support, and manual image adjustments.

Audio also gets an upgrade through an intelligent dual-microphone system that offers four recording modes:

Directional Mode / solo calls
Dual-Directional Mode / interviews
Smart Omni Mode / group meetings
Pure Audio Mode / unprocessed stereo recording

AI Noise Reduction and Automatic Gain Control are also available across most modes to help improve voice clarity.

OBSBOT’s Meet Flip is also compatible with mobile devices through the OBSBOT Live app and supports integrations with accessories including Elgato Stream Deck, Nintendo Switch 2, and UVC-to-NDI/HDMI adapters.

Pricing and Availability

The OBSBOT Meet Flip is available starting today for US$119 through OBSBOT’s online store, Amazon US, and select retailers worldwide. Regional pricing may vary.
