Amber journeys beyond

Despite the fact that horror games were a pretty well-tapped genre, Amber: Journeys Beyond manages to find a pretty unique angle. In the game, you play as the friend of a zealous paranormal investigator. She has purchased a reputed “haunted house” in the North Carolina hills, and has been working there feverishly on new equipment for her company. As the game begins, she has fallen out of communication, and the VP of the company has asked you to check up on her. Upon arriving on scene, needless to say, you find that things have gone wrong. The kind of wrong that has left you stranded at the house, and forced to remember the details of Poltergeist ASAP. Joking aside, the opening section to the game is quite strong, and reminds me of the corporate technology-toys-with-nature tale that Michael Crichton would pen. Regardless of what you think of his work, it’s saying something that the plot of a video game could hold its own against a multiple New York Times bestseller.This device lets you catch hauntings (clues) elsewhere in the house.Without giving too many of the surprises away, you learn that the house is indeed haunted, your friend’s company has made some highly advanced tools to detect ghosts, and the house has been wired from roof to floor with them. Aside from audio recorders that let you isolate the mumblings of spirits, and video cameras that record some pretty freaky stuff when you’re out of the room, the point of the game is the namesake AMBER device. This is a headset that allows you, more or less, to enter the spirit world and experience the strange mixing of present and past that the ghosts are trapped in. You become a sort of spiritual guide, and it’s your job to help these

Fotos‘Snow White’ Stars Test Their Wits‘Snow White’ Stars Test Their WitsRachel Zegler, Gal Gadot, and director Marc Webb take our Ultimate Disney Quiz.Watch nowAMBER: JOURNEYS BEYOND is a point-and-click adventure game developed for the PC.The player assumes the role of an unidentified main character who receives an e-mail about a friend, Roxy, a paranormal investigator who is conducting tests at a haunted house in North Carolina. The main character decides to go down to the house to assist Roxy with her investigations. After seeing an apparition in the middle of the road, their car crashes into a pond. Roxy is later found lying unconscious. The player is faced with the challenge of finding out what happened to her as well as investigating the past lives of three spirits who haunt the house. This constitutes the framework for the linking story of the game.The three tales in the game are lived out by the player in a dream-like state. Through this process the main character discovers the events that led to the deaths of those who haunt the house.I will provide no spoilers about the tales themselves. All I will say is that the creators of the game carefully put together a set of abstract ideas designed to convey a variety of emotions including sadness, guilt and loss.Unfortunately the keyword in the previous paragraph is "abstract" since the manner in which the tales are played out does little to trigger emotion thus leaving a sense of boredom. The inability to interact directly with other characters in the game is a major stumbling block - one that leaves the player with only a set of conclusions derived from interacting with objects and navigating through locations. Due to this, the game fails to immerse the player into the minds and hearts of the spirits as the creators clearly intended.Also the absence of identity of the main character fails to involve the player in the mystery. This same problem also existed in DARK FALL: THE JOURNAL, a similar game but set in a railway station.The linking story in particular boasts a series of elaborate set pieces that form a nice base for a supernatural or psychological horror story. Unfortunately however, nothing interesting is done with this base. There is no atmosphere, no sense of fear or danger and most certainly no suspense or tension. The three tales each seem to become an afterthought once they have ended, with no bearing on the linking story whatsoever.The ending is an anti-climax and even weaker than the one found in the aforementioned game, DARK FALL: THE JOURNAL.To summarise, the creators of this game had good intentions but failed to immerse the player in the stories they were trying to tell. All three stories had promise but the game fails to capitalise on this.Overall, AMBER: JOURNEYS BEYOND is a mediocre game devoid of emotion. For anyone who wants a good psychological horror gaming experience, I recommend the SILENT HILL series of games. The parallels are clear to see

Infineon Technologies and Amber have announced a collaboration that will see the commercialization of Amber’s technology on the digital control of electricity in silicon architecture. The main applications are related to Amber’s patented technologies such as AC/DC Enabler and AC Switch for smart circuit breakers, dimmers, and new solutions with Infineon’s suite of products. In an exclusive interview with EEWeb, Thar Casey, CEO of Amber, and Steve Bakos, senior director of switching power at Infineon Technologies, discussed the commercial and technical aspects of this collaboration, which will see a partnership around the digital electricity control market with embedded intelligence.“The goal is to exploit solid-state technology and move beyond electromechanical systems — the bulky electrolytic capacitors, magnetics, transformers, and other passive elements standard today,” said Casey. “Infineon and its CoolMOS power MOSFET technology prove to be up to the task. Our alliance aims to offer a transformation of every electrical endpoint in all residential and commercial buildings to a modern silicon architecture with embedded intelligence. Our technology portfolio and customer base, as well as that of Infineon as one of the largest silicon suppliers in industrial power control and beyond, supports a strong solid-state electrification opportunity for us both. Our goal, right now, is to disrupt the market and integrate modern, silicon-based intelligence in every part of a building electrical grid, such as dimmer light switches and circuit breakers. We’re also looking for an innovative path for our technology and aim at being integrated within Infineon’s technology with some new solutions for the market.”Bakos pointed out that the combination of Amber’s innovative technology and Infineon’s technology is a very good match to unlock this market. “We see a strong potential for the residential switch, outlet, and circuit breaker market that is ready to be disrupted,” he said. “We have looked at Amber’s technology, and we believe that together, we can help them drive this transformation not only with our MOSFETs but also with our microcontrollers, security ICs, and sensors that can help bring intelligence to these applications. I think this is a huge opportunity that I am very excited about.”Amber technology and e-CoolMOSThe breakthrough of digital control of electricity allows for the introduction of upgradeable firmware and machine-learning–embedded algorithms in buildings. The solid-state architecture — with electronic components and silicon chips — allows this breakthrough to be fully obtaind, making it possible for software intelligence to be incorporated directly into electrical products, electrical infrastructure, and thus into the structure of the building.Amber offers solid-state digital control of electricity with its patented Amber AC/DC Enabler and Amber AC Switch. AC/DC Enabler is a novel topology for AC/DC conversion that does not require magnetics or high-voltage electrolytic capacitors and is capable of producing
