Instant print cameras have been popular for a long, long time, but they’re seeing a renaissance now — led by Fujifilm, whose Instax mini-films and cameras lead the pack. But Canon wants in, and has debuted a pair of new cameras to challenge Fuji’s dominance — but their reliance on digital printing may hold them back. The cameras have confusing, nonsensical names in both the U.S. and Europe: Here, they’re the IVY CLIQ and CLIQ+, while across the pond it’s the Zoemini C and S. Really now, Canon!

When Netflix increased its prices a few weeks ago, investors were so confident in the revenue increase that would be delivered that they didn’t even wait to see what customer’s reaction would be. Netflix spends an astounding amount of money on content rights and content development — supposedly budgeting $15 billion for 2019 — and resulting in $3 billion in negative cash flow, which is heavily funded with debt — at $10.4 billion by the end…
Huawei unveiled its brand new flagship phone — the P30 and the P30 Pro — at a press conference today in Paris. In many ways, this year’s update is a continuation of the P20 series — but everything has been upgraded. I played with both devices for a bit; here’s my experience.

The company has switched from an iPhone X-like notch to a tiny little teardrop notch. The P20 and P20…
3D printing is the act of making three dimensional solid objects from a digital file. An object is created using an additive process which involves putting down layers of material until the object is created. Unlike traditional manufacturing, 3D printing produces complex objects using less material. 3D metal printing is gaining popularity in the UAE because a variety of products can be made using different materials, for example, jewelry, kitchen-ware, and even key-holders.Objects produced this way are better, lighter and 3d printing metal parts use less energy while keeping wastage at a minimum. The latest inventions in this field have…

From professionals to amateurs Though the VR sector remains in its infant stage, Liu is optimistic that 360 content will become a much sought-after media form in the years to come. “Many families will be consuming virtual reality content for entertainment in the future, so we have a huge market for 360 content. That’s why we make a 360 camera each year to keep our top-tier position,” said Liu.
Setting the stage First, let’s set the stage for our analysis and explain where our data comes from with a few quick facts: Rounds below $1 million can be the most difficult to capture adequately as many angel and pre-seed deals are not reported.Luckily, Crunchbase has an “active founder community” that adds early stage financings.By “active founder community” we are referring to many founders who are active on Crunchbase adding their company, themselves as founders, and their fundings.Around 47 percent of fundings below $5 million in the U.S. are added by contributors, as distinct from our analyst teams who process…
