99X TECHNOLOGY SWEEPS UP TWO AWARDS AT NBQSA 2013

Being one of the top players in the Sri Lankan ICT industry, 99X Technology obtained two awards at the recently concluded National Best Quality ICT Awards (NBQSA).

The two awards are as follows

WAG : Web Accessibility Guide – Bronze Award, R&D Category

ALMUR :  Merit Award, Tools and Infrastructure Applications

NBQSA Awards

WAG it seems is a toolset which is aimed to make surfing the internet that much easier to the visually handicapped. This provides assistance to users with total blindness, low vision and colour applications. It additionally enables the visually impaired people to apply accessibility corrections. It is wonderful to see projects such as WAG being implemented, where technology is used for the betterment of society. Kudos to the project team!

The ALMUR is a product which facilitates binary decision making using fuzzy loging on cases expressed in approximate human terms. A typical question asked from ALMUR would be: ‘If the student’s Math grade is high, English grade is low and Geography grade is somewhat high, should we pass the student?’

ALMUR libraries are currently being used by ‘Norge-serien’ and ‘Boating Norway’ iOS apps for fuzzy logic based decision making.

“Research and development is fundamental to our strategy, keeping in line with our aim to constantly innovate. Hence, the award signifies our commitment towards reaching this goal”
