Green Fertilizer Made with Air and Plasma: NitroCapt (Sweden) wins $2M Food Planet Prize 2025 for developing low-emission fertilizers
STOCKHOLM, June 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The Curt Bergfors Foundation is honored to announce that NitroCapt was awarded the Food Planet Prize, the world's biggest environmental award, on June 13 in Stockholm, Sweden. This recognition highlights their exceptional contributions and potential to disrupt the global nitrogen fertilizer industry. Nitrogen fertilizers are used for 50% of the world's food production and emit as much carbon dioxide as the aviation industry. Sweden-based NitroCapt has developed a novel, energy-efficient process that makes fertilizer through plasma-produced nitrate. NitroCapt's technology could improve access to green fertilizer across the world. In awarding the Prize to NitroCapt, the Food Planet Prize jury Co-Chair Johan Rockström commented: "Through NitroCapt's innovation, nitrogen fertilizer can now be produced by splitting nitrogen from the air with plasma technology simply needing green electricity as input. This technology reduces the use of energy tenfold, can be produced locally, avoids fossil-fuels entirely, while producing a nitrate fertilizer that can improve soil health and may be used sustainably by farmers across the world." Gustaf Forsberg, CEO and Founder of NitroCapt, added: "NitroCapt's mission is to decarbonize the nitrogen fertilizer industry. The current fossil-based process has reached its end point. We can also contribute to increased food production in areas that today have difficulties producing sufficient amounts. We are just about to finalize our industrial-scale pilot, and we have fertilizer in the field, but we're still not at the scale where we want to be. This Prize will be very important for us to bring our technology to the stage where we can start making a difference." About the Food Planet Prize The Curt Bergfors Food Planet Prize was established in Sweden in 2019, in acknowledgement of the perils that our current food systems pose to the health of people and the planet. The Prize supports initiatives that significantly reduce the environmental impact of the way we eat today. Unlike many awards, the Food Planet Prize recognizes initiatives for their potential future impact on the environment rather than past achievements. The Food Planet Prize's international jury consists of 10 leading specialists in complex Food Planet challenges. The jury is co-chaired by Johan Rockström and Magnus Nilsson.

Nota AI Achieves 100% Accuracy Through Sony IMX500®-Powered Smart Traffic Solution, Demonstrating Global Competitiveness
SEOUL, South Korea, June 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Nota Inc. (CEO Myungsu Chae) successfully combined its lightweight AI optimization technology with Sony's AI smart image sensor IMX500 as part of an AI Voucher Global Division project supported by Korea's National IT Industry Promotion Agency (NIPA). High-Performance AI on Sony IMX500 with Energy and Cost Efficiency Sony's IMX500 is an advanced smart image sensor that integrates an image sensor and a logic chip, enabling data processing directly on the sensor. Nota AI applied its AI optimization technology to this sensor, successfully implementing smart traffic solutions such as pedestrian safety management and traffic volume analysis. By delivering high-performance AI without accuracy loss on the compact IMX500 chipset, Nota AI maximized the sensor's low-power and cost-effective capabilities. This innovation demonstrates the sensor's critical value in smart city environments, where energy efficiency and cost savings are key priorities. As part of the AI Voucher Project, Nota AI successfully validated its smart traffic solution using Sony's IMX500-powered AI cameras. Conducted in Lakewood, USA, the project focused on reducing pedestrian accidents and improving traffic flow in high-risk areas. Nota AI's solution achieved 100% accuracy, demonstrating outstanding performance and cost efficiency. This achievement was featured in Sony's webinar, "EDGE AI Experts Reveal Pedestrian Tragedy Prevention Secrets," where Nota AI was recognized as a best-case study for power efficiency and cost reduction. Nota AI Accelerates IPO Plans Amid Rapid Global Expansion Nota AI CEO Myungsu Chae stated, "Our AI technology has the potential to drive innovations in energy efficiency and cost savings across diverse industries, including smart cities.

EngineAI Releases Comprehensive Open-Source Resources to Accelerate Robotics Development
SHENZHEN, China, June 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Shenzhen EngineAI Robotics, an innovator in humanoid robots, has officially released a comprehensive suite of open-source resources, providing developers with structured guidance across key areas of robotics, from modular architecture design to multimodal control systems. This initiative marks a significant step in promoting collaborative development and lowering technical barriers in the robotics industry. Zhao Tongyang, the founder and CEO of EngineAI said, "EngineAI views open-sourcing as more than a technical offering, it is an ecosystem-building effort. By sharing advanced tools and frameworks, this release aims to empower startups, research institutions, and independent developers. Our long-term vision is to create the world's leading general-purpose humanoid robot and continue to promote revolutionary innovation in embodied intelligence." At the heart of the open-source release is a dual-framework offering: a training code repository and a deployment code repository. Together, they form an end-to-end solution that enables robotics development from algorithm training to real-world application. The training framework, EngineAI RL Workspace, is a modular reinforcement learning platform built specifically for legged robotics. It integrates the full development pipeline, from environment setup to algorithm training and performance evaluation. The system is architected with four core clusters: environment modules, algorithm engines, shared toolkits, and integration layers. Each component is independently encapsulated, allowing developers to modify modules without impacting the entire system. This design significantly reduces communication overhead and facilitates multi-person collaboration. EngineAI RL Workspace emphasizes development efficiency through reusable logic structures. Its single-algorithm executor supports both training and inference using a unified execution flow, enabling developers to focus on algorithmic innovation rather than infrastructure repetition. Furthermore, the decoupling of algorithms and environments allows for seamless iteration without altering interface definitions. To support full-cycle experimentation, the workspace is equipped with advanced tools that support various stages of the project lifecycle. This includes dynamic recording systems that capture video during training and inference processes, as well as intelligent version management that ensures consistency across experiments, eliminating the need for manual file searches and preventing discrepancies caused by version mismatches. Complementing the training tools is EngineAI ROS, a ROS2-based deployment framework designed to bridge algorithm models with practical use cases. Moreover, to ensure accessibility, EngineAI has also published detailed user guides for both the training and deployment frameworks, helping developers quickly onboard and integrate the tools into their projects. This open source initiative vividly demonstrates EngineAI's commitment to open innovation by lowering entry barriers and encouraging global participation, allowing multinational developers to jointly shape the future of intelligent machines. Founded in October 2023 and headquartered in Shenzhen, China, EngineAI is dedicated to developing world-leading general-purpose humanoid robots while continuously accelerating innovation in the embodied intelligence revolution.
