BWI: Autism Community Across India, Celebrates Autism Awareness Month

Source : Action For Autism (AFA) Thursday, April 2, 2015 2:40PM IST (9:10AM GMT)   Autism Community Across India, Celebrates Autism Awareness Month   New Delhi, Delhi, India The National Centre for Autism in the capital, is organizing an Autism Awareness Jamboree (AAJ) on 2 April 2015 to step up awareness of the mental disorder that already impacts 15 million in India. One of the major attractions of AAJ will be an Art Carnival at the India Habitat Centre that will be attended by over 150 children from various schools across Delhi. Autism is a brain disorder that causes a lifelong development disability, primarily affecting the communication and social abilities of people. Due to sensory defensiveness, people with autism perceive the world differently and therefore communicate and react differently. It is recognized as the most common developmental disability, and studies in Asia, Europe, and North America place current prevalence levels at around 1 in 68. It is estimated that India has a population of 15 million individuals with autism. Five times as many boys have autism as girls. The autism community across India will be celebrating Autism Awareness Month throughout April. As part of this, Action For Autism, the pioneering non-profit organization, which runs the National Centre has planned a series of activities apart from the jamboree, including an art exhibition at IHC, Delhi on the 9th and a Flashmob performance at Select City Walk on the 19th. AFA, along with supporting NGOs, will also be joining the global autism community in the campaign called Light It Up Blue, in which iconic landmarks around will turn their lights blue to create awareness. This year, the Pyramids in Egypt, Niagara Falls in Canada, Trafalgar Square in London and the iconic Pearl Tower in Shanghai will be among the 60 landmarks to light up in blue. In India, cities and towns such as Dehradun, Chennai and Hyderabad will light up some of their prominent buildings, like the clock tower in Dehradun. In Delhi, the Hyatt Regency hotel and Select City Walk mall too will turn blue in support of the cause.  For Further Information: http://www.autism-india.org/ For further details please contact   Address:  Action For Autism  The National Centre for Autism Pocket 7 & 8, Jasola Vihar New Delhi 110 025 India Phone: + 91 11 4054 0991 + 91 11 4054 0992 + 91 11 6534 7422 E-mail: actionforautism@gmail.com helpline.afa@gmail.com email.afa@gmail.com       KEYWORDS: Business/ Finance:Events & Conferences, Healthcare & biotechnology;General:NGO, People, Social issues   To ensure that you continue to receive email from Business Wire India in your inbox, please add businesswireindia.com to your Address Book or Safe List.   To submit a press release, click here.

BWI: Tagos and Yash Raj Films (YRF) Launch an Active Trailer of the Upcoming Movie Detective Byomkesh Bakshy. That Lets Viewers Explore the Movie in Further Detail

Source : Tagos Design Innovations (P) Ltd Wednesday, April 1, 2015 1:50PM IST (8:20AM GMT)   Tagos and Yash Raj Films (YRF) Launch an Active Trailer of the Upcoming Movie Detective Byomkesh Bakshy. That Lets Viewers Explore the Movie in Further Detail Opens up new ways to interact, engage and discover   Mumbai, Maharashtra, India Tagos, an innovative In-video discovery platform, and Yash Raj Films (YRF) launched an Active version of the trailer of the upcoming movie Detective Byomkesh Bakshy!.    Tagos’s Active® technology, when applied to streaming videos, lets viewers explore the video by touching a point of interest on the screen. This technology opens up a new way for internet users to interact with video content. Here's how it works: When viewers watch the trailer activated with this technology, they can tap the screen with their finger or click with a mouse/pointing device to interact with a character, a location or discover a product, without intruding on the immersive nature of the content. It draws viewers deeper into the content and extends their engagement after the video has ended.   Tagos technology uses advanced algorithms to detect points of interest as they move in real-time on the screen. The viewers can simply touch the image they want to explore, without interrupting the experience. All touches are saved and can be accessed by the viewer anytime on the Internet.   Engaged consumers want to interact, explore and shop from their favourite movies. Tagos enables these engagements via its platform. Many consumer impulses die at the level of instinct or intent. This approach allows it to travel quickly from intent to action and adds new a direct response property which the TV lacks.   Until now most broadcasters and premium video-content publishers have used the Internet the same way as TV (essentially a one-way medium). Using this platform, they get to leverage the two-way nature of the Internet, which allows an engaged viewer to explore the video content in deeper detail.   In doing so, it creates valuable engagement opportunities previously unavailable to the content creators. Allowing viewers to touch what interests them in a video opens up a whole new world. The platform offers a video content exploration experience to viewers and in doing so offers brands, content owners and video publishers new engagement  opportunities.   The two companies are really excited to work collaboratively to bring the power of this technology to consumers that truly leverages the two-way property of the Internet.   About Tagos   Tagos’s focus is to continually enhance the magic of moving imagery via interactive experiences. The company's In-video discovery platform is a next generation new-media platform. For more information, please visit www.tagos.in   About Yash Raj Films Yash Raj Films (YRF) is the foremost production company in the Indian film industry and Bollywood's premier independent studio conglomerate. A number of the industry's highest grossing films have been produced and distributed under the YRF banner. Located in Mumbai, YRF owns and operates a state-of-the-art fully integrated studio incorporating an elaborate post-production facility, Merchandise & Licensing division, Design Cell, Marketing, and Digital departments that annually produce a slate of award-winning films.   Media Contact Details GBS Bindra, CEO Tagos Tagos Design Innovations (P) Ltd, ,+91-9880709889   KEYWORDS: Business/ Finance:Advertising, PR & marketing, Information Technology, Media & Entertainment, Technology;General:Consumer interest, Entertainment, Internet, People   To ensure that you continue to receive email from Business Wire India in your inbox, please add businesswireindia.com to your Address Book or Safe List.   To submit a press release, click here.
