Her life lasts only for a single nightAs dusk falls, she blooms in quiet elegance, only to gently descend with the first light of dawn. Though her existence is fleeting, she shines like fireworks and is breathtakingly beautifulIn this design, I sought to capture the moment when the stamens burst forth from the bud, with countless filaments unfurling like delicate tendrils, radiating boundless energy, vitality and freedom. This imagery deeply moved me, reminding me that “Life, like a flower, is fleeting – not measured by its length, but by whether it has burned brightly”As a jewellery designer, I often ask myself: what can I leave behind in this world' Perhaps, through my creations, I can transform those fleeting moments of emotion into eternal beautyCraftsmanship AwardTitle of winning design: Born of BlueDesigner: CHAN Hoi Yi (Hong Kong)Category: Pendant/BroochDescription*:Inspired by a proverb from my favorite philosopher Xunzi: "Born of blue, but better than blue"Blue dye was distilled from the indigo plant, but the dye was bluer than the plant itself. The knowledge taught by teacher made the students surpass the teacher himselfThis inspired my design like a visual metaphor: the Chinese-Cloud symbolises knowledge (an everchanging form/law of nature)ï¼›Chinese-Knots symbolise teacher/students (from a simple to a complex shape, to the deepening of blue colours. The progress symbolises self-improvement)I admire the vague elegance in this proverb. It's humble, pure, not flashy, with a scent of scholarly temperament, with goodwill and charm. It may sound a bit naive and idealistic today, but that’s what I want to express in this jewelleryAesthetics AwardTitle of winning design: ContemplationDesigner: Mariia EFIMOVA (Russia)Category: RingDescription*:In a world where everything happens too fast, beauty is commonplace, and we are often seduced only by the outside. But the underside sometimes says much more.

The necklace, meticulously handcrafted with bold but lightweight meshed, hollowed constructions, features a 4-carat cushion-cut ruby that, like the olive, symbolises longevity and resilienceBeyond its luxurious appeal, Olivia represents family heritage and timelessness, akin to the olive tree’s historical significance, with over 6,000 years of cultural influence in the Mediterranean.

GA-ASI Flies Government Reference Autonomy Stack at Orange Flag 25-1

SAN DIEGO, CA, Mar 4, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. (GA-ASI) achieved another major milestone in the development of Unmanned Combat Air Vehicles (UCAVs) by flying U.S. government-provided autonomy software aboard a company-owned MQ-20 Avenger®. The demonstration was part of the Air Force Test Center's all-domain test series called Orange Flag 25-1, which took place Feb. 19-21 at Edwards Air Force Base, California.The demonstration included the use of a government-provided Pilot Vehicle Interface (PVI), showcasing GA-ASI's commitment to advancing its UCAV ecosystem through collaboration with partners and government entities and integrating cutting-edge technologies.

This reinforces that the new generations of GA-ASI's UCAVs can seamlessly get upgrades as fast as developers finish them. Just as a mobile phone can get new and better features with each update, so too can new UCAVs get more capable and more versatile."This demonstration marks a significant achievement in our ongoing efforts to operationalize autonomy for UCAVs," said GA-ASI Vice President of Advanced Programs Michael Atwood. "Flying the government reference autonomy stack at Orange Flag 25-1 and utilizing the government-provided PVI underscores our commitment to delivering robust and adaptable autonomy solutions for the warfighter. We especially appreciate and salute the support we received from the 309th Software Engineering Group."The successful flight at Orange Flag 25-1 further validates GA-ASI's dedication to maturing its open standards-based autonomy software ecosystem. By adhering to government-owned and maintained standards, GA-ASI ensures rapid integration of best-of-breed capabilities from third-party providers, enhancing the overall operational effectiveness of UCAV platforms.GA-ASI continues to demonstrate its commitment to advancing autonomy for UCAVs through a series of flight tests and collaborations with government and industry partners. These efforts are aimed at developing an autonomy infrastructure that enables rapid integration and validation of tactical software applications while maintaining safety of flight and providing warfighters with the most advanced capabilities possible.

中國結象徵老師/學生(從簡單到複雜的形狀,從淺藍色到深藍色,過程象徵著自我提升)。我欣賞這句名言中隱約的優雅。它謙遜、純粹、不浮華,帶著一股書生氣質,帶著善意與魅力。現在聽起來可能有些幼稚和理想化,但這正是我想從這件珠寶中表達的。最佳整體美感獎得獎設計名稱︰Contemplation設計師︰Mariia EFIMOVA (俄羅斯)類別︰戒指作品描述*:在這個一切都發生得太快的世界裡,美麗已是司空見慣。我們經常被外在所誘惑。但內在有時傳遞的信息更為豐富。「Contemplation」邀請大家停下來,提醒大家真正的美麗存在於內心中。表二:第二十六屆香港珠寶設計比賽部分得獎作品公開組大獎兼工藝技術獎作品名稱︰浪漫與經典設計師︰謝嘉榮類別︰戒指作品描述*:珠寶與名畫的關係密不可分,有著相同的淵源,設計師汲取了印象派畫家莫內作品《睡蓮》的元素,運用珠寶藝術完美展現經典名畫的浪漫與典雅。公開組大獎作品名稱︰維多利亞-蝶光設計師︰陳詠朗類別︰戒指作品描述*:在維多利亞港的景色中,化為一隻巨蝶,展翅高飛,閃爍著五光十色的光影。幻蝶如夢,傳遞人們對未來的憧憬與渴望。每次翅膀扇動,都是對生命的讚歌。最後,幻蝶化了光境,吸引世人駐足凝望,心隨之飛翔,共同編織那份對美好的追尋。成為夢的起點,綻放無盡可能。公開組大獎作品名稱︰童趣設計師︰周天怡類別︰吊墜/胸針作品描述*:沙漏承載童年的夢,每一粒夜光沙如星塵滑落,捕捉時間的流逝與珍貴,將希望與光芒封存其中。吊墜可拆卸的設計,賦予自由更換彩沙或香氛沙的可能,增添珠寶獨特魅力與個性。在流動的光影間,見證永恆與夢想的閃耀。學生組冠軍作品名稱︰藍韻花語設計師︰劉康藍就讀學校︰香港理工大學類別︰戒指作品描述*:藍色白花青的青花瓷不僅是一種美的體現,更是時間的沈澱和中華文化的延續。將其藍白相映和紋飾繁複的特點融入珠寶設計中,表達了青花瓷恆久的吸引力和隨著時間流逝依然閃耀的特質。學生組亞軍作品名稱︰聖華設計師︰麥泳梅就讀學校︰聖方濟各大學類別︰耳環作品描述*:耳環靈感源自教堂的神聖,造型勾勒出尖塔穹頂的典雅輪廓。穹頂上的十字架象徵著永恆的祝福,中央垂掛的紫色寶石猶如聖光在人間綻放,搭配色彩斑斕的琺瑯,就像教堂彩繪玻璃在陽光下的璀璨光華。每片琺瑯都象徵著信仰的力量,散發出持久而迷人的色彩。學生組季軍作品名稱︰紅鹽設計師︰劉卓禮就讀學校︰港專學院類別︰手鍊/項鍊作品描述*:作品名取自蘇軾《橄欖》的「紛紛青子落紅鹽」,當中的紅鹽有成熟橄欖之意。紅鹽落下後便不再使用樹的養分,果中的種子重新發芽生長。橄欖樹四季長青,開花結果,周而復始,光華不息,宛如代代相傳的家族瑰寶。*資料由得獎者提供「第七屆國際珠寶設計大獎」完整得獎名單:https://hkjewellery.hktdc.com/pdf/2025/IJDEA2025.pdf「第二十六屆香港珠寶設計比賽」完整得獎名單:https://www.hktdc.com/event/hkjewellery/tc/the-26th-hong-kong-jewellery-design-competition-result-announcement由香港貿易發展局主辦的第41屆香港國際珠寶展今日於灣仔會展隆重開幕,連同於亞博館舉行的第11屆香港國際鑽石、寶石及珍珠展,共匯聚來自全球超過40個國家及地區,約4,000家參展商。珠寶精粹廊展區內的維多利亞珠寶(展位:CEC GH-E08)以62卡祖母綠和逾3400顆寶石、鑽石等打造的「煙花套鏈」,重現煙花綻放多彩的時刻。日本展商Jewelry of Raden & Urushi(展位:CEC 1CON-016)在珠寶設計精選展區,帶來以18K 黃金、阿古屋珍珠、鑽石、珍珠母貝鑲嵌的龍造型胸針和吊墜。澳洲展商Autore Pearls Pty Ltd(展位:CEC GH-C32)展示的蛇形項鏈,鑲有珍珠、鑽石和寶石,活靈活現。今年珠寶展增設新晉珠寶設計師專區,為年輕設計師提供展示才華的平台。「第七屆國際珠寶設計大獎」一眾得獎者與嘉賓合照。「第二十六屆香港珠寶設計比賽」一眾得獎者與嘉賓合照。圖片下載︰https://bit.ly/3QI66F3展會資料:香港國際珠寶展展覽日期開放時間2025年3月4日(星期二)上午10時30分至下午6時30分2025年3月5日至7日(星期三至五)上午10時至下午6時30分2025年3月8日(星期六)上午10時至下午5時30分展覽地點灣仔博覽道1號香港會議展覽中心記者登記處及新聞中心新聞界代表請攜同名片及記者證到香港會議展覽中心展覽廳1D大堂,或到香港貿發局新聞中心(香港會議展覽中心博覽道入口──新翼地下)登記**香港國際鑽石、寶石及珍珠展展覽日期開放時間2025年3月2 (星期日)上午10時30分至下午6時30分2025年3月3至5日 (星期一至三)上午10時至下午6時30分2025年3月6日 (星期四)上午10時至下午5時30分展覽地點香港大嶼山香港國際機場亞洲國際博覽館記者登記處及新聞中心新聞界代表請攜同名片及記者證到亞洲國際博覽館東大堂入口(3號展館對面電梯旁),或到新聞中心(2樓201C會議室)登記****基於保安理由,記者須出示工作證及身份證或護照登記,方能辦理記者證,持大會發出記者證入場前,保安人員亦會要求出示身份證明文件,以確認身份。請預留足夠時間辦理記者證及入場。相關網頁 香港國際珠寶展香港國際鑽石、寶石及珍珠展展覽網頁http://hkjewelleryshow.hktdc.com/tchttp://hkdgp.hktdc.com/tc精選產品https://bit.ly/4hE1ifz兩展穿梭巴士安排https://www.hktdc.com/event/hkjewellery/tc/travel-to-fairground-hkcechttps://www.hktdc.com/event/hkdgp/tc/travel-to-fairground-awe展會活動https://www.hktdc.com/event/hkjewellery/tc/intelligence-hubhttps://www.hktdc.com/event/hkdgp/tc/intelligence-hub香港貿發局新聞中心:http://mediaroom.hktdc.com/tc傳媒查詢香港貿易發展局傳訊及公共事務部:夏妙婷電話:(852) 2584 4575電郵:sharon.mt.ha@hktdc.org張希汶電話:(852) 2584 4272電郵:serena.hm.cheung@hktdc.org劉茸電話:(852) 2584 4472電郵:clayton.y.lawuw@hktdc.org香港貿易發展局簡介香港貿易發展局(香港貿發局)是於1966年成立的法定機構,負責促進、協助和發展香港貿易。香港貿發局在世界各地設有超過50個辦事處,其中13個設於中國內地,致力推廣本港作為雙向環球投資及商業樞紐。 香港貿發局通過舉辦國際展覽會、會議及商貿考察團,為企業(尤其是中小企)開拓內地和環球市場的機遇。香港貿發局亦通過研究報告和數碼資訊平台,提供最新的市場分析和產品資訊。有關香港貿發局的其他資訊,請瀏覽www.hktdc.com/aboutus/tc。 Copyright 2025 亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com.
