JINAN, China, Sept. 19, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- This is a report from the Shandong Office of Hong Kong Business Daily. Intangible cultural heritage is like a clear spring, crossing the long river of history and nourishing every corner of this city, becoming a cultural bond connecting the past and the future. With the in-depth exploration of the documentary series "Encountering Jinan", we have welcomed the second issue - Intangible Cultural Heritage of the People. This time, we will follow in the footsteps of French student Elaine to explore the intangible cultural heritage treasures hidden in the daily lives of the people, and feel their charm and warmth that transcends time and space.
Shadow puppetry is not only a cultural calling card of Jinan, but also a crystallization of the wisdom and creativity of the people of Jinan. For centuries, it has attracted the attention of countless people with its unique artistic form and rich cultural connotations.
Under the introduction of Ms. Li Juan, the inheritor of intangible cultural heritage, the long history and cultural charm of Jinan shadow puppetry deeply touch the hearts of every explorer. Gently pulling the joystick, the shadow puppetry jumps and flips in her hands, and every movement reveals the exquisite skills and deep emotions of the shadow puppeteer. Elaine also deeply experienced the ultimate pursuit of skills and respect and inheritance of tradition in the intangible cultural heritage of shadow puppetry through personal experience.
As soon as they stepped into the hall of cross-talk, laughter and joy flooded in like a tide. The cross-talk masters stood on stage, telling humorous and witty stories with their heroic and delicate performance styles, allowing the audience to feel the ups and downs of life through laughter. Elaine was fortunate enough to have face-to-face communication with the master of cross-talk, Yan Dong. She learned a few simple jokes and, under Yans guidance, gradually understood the profound traditional culture and strong human touch behind cross-talk. These seemingly simple language fragments are actually a profound insight and embodiment of wisdom from the people of Jinan towards life. From exquisite shadow puppetry to humorous cross-talk performances, from delicate Lu embroidery techniques to authentic Jinan snacks, every intangible cultural heritage skill is the crystallization of the wisdom of the people of Jinan, their pursuit of beauty and love for life.

The second issue of the documentary series "Encountering Jinan" - "Intangible Cultural Heritage of the People"
LAS VEGAS, Jan. 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Guide Sensmart (Booth 21740, Central Hall), a global leader in thermal imaging technology, officially launched its next-generation thermal imaging innovation – ApexVision – alongside a series of new products empowered by the technology. This launch represents a systemic leap for the industry from merely "seeing heat" to "seeing with clarity, precision, and intelligence," marking the dawn of a new era defined by Ultra-Clarity.
CES Show Floor Reaction: "Ultra-Clarity" Draws Deep Engagement
At the Guide Sensmart booth, live product demonstrations powered by ApexVision attracted strong attention from industry analysts to global media. Hands-on comparisons—such as maintaining clear imaging details of distant targets and delivering crisp, smear-free imaging of fast-moving objects—earned consistent praise. Many professional visitors noted that this reliable "what-you-see-is-what-you-get" clarity would directly enhance operational efficiency and decision-making confidence.
ApexVision integrating both hardware and software: It combines the high-sensitivity ApexCore S1 detector, the Nexus 1.0 processing platform, and scenario-optimized algorithms. Together, ApexVision successfully overcomes persistent challenges such as low contrast in complex environments, detail loss at long range or high magnification, motion blur on fast-moving objects, and inaccurate detection of minute temperature differences.
From Architecture to Application: A Full Portfolio Empowered
On the CES show floor, Guide Sensmart demonstrated how ApexVision delivers tangible improvements across thermal devices. Thermography tools (e.g. E3S, H6S thermal cameras) leverage the SharpIR 2.0 algorithm to provide stable, accurate temperature measurement in demanding environments, enabling inspectors to pinpoint hidden faults with greater confidence. Outdoor hunting optics (e.g. TD650LS monocular and TN650MS binocular), benefit from Hyper-Light 2.0, allowing users to identify nocturnal wildlife in complete darkness and track fast-moving targets while maintaining clean, sharp images even at 10× zoom.
"The launch of ApexVision marks a milestone where our vertically integrated technology development translates into real value for users," said a Guide Sensmart spokesperson. "It is more than a set of specifications—it delivers the certainty of Ultra-Clarity to every professional user."
The debut of ApexVision at CES 2026 signifies more than a routine product update. By resolving long-standing trade-offs between sensitivity, stability, and environmental robustness, Guide Sensmart is advancing thermal imaging into the Ultra-Clarity Era, building a clearer, safer, and more efficient future.
We are keen to explore partnership of collaboration with you. Know more about Guide Sensmart at https://www.guideir.com.
