[{"type":"text","content":"WAVELABS and Aurora Solar Technologies Announce Strategic Partnership for Integration and Marketing of Their Insight(TM) and LED Solar Simulator ProductsNorth Vancouver, British Columbia and Leipzig, Germany--(Newsfile Corp. - December 1, 2020) -  Aurora Solar Technologies Inc. (TSXV: ACU) (\"Aurora\") and WAVELABS Solar Metrology Systems GmbH (\"WAVELABS\") are pleased to announce a strategic partnership for the integration of Aurora's InsightTM data science product for solar cell production yield optimization with WAVELABS' solar cell testers. In the partnership, WAVELABS will provide specialized cell test functionality and data that can be used in the advanced versions of Aurora's Insight product, and the companies will cooperate in the promotion, marketing and distribution of their respective products.WAVELABS' solar cell testers are revolutionizing the solar industry by enabling near-perfect efficiency measurement at the end of the solar cell manufacturing line. WAVELABS products use proprietary LED illumination for sunlight simulation and are also capable of illuminating cells during the test to provide additional information for use by the production line performance analysis algorithms in Aurora's Insight (TM) product. A solar cell tester, also known as a solar simulator or IV tester, performs a test on each finished good at the end of a solar cell production line. Each cell is subjected to a flash of simulated sunlight and it is then classified according to its electrical characteristics (current, voltage, power, etc.). This classification is used to sort the cells into categories for valuation and later assembly into solar panels. Aurora's InsightTM is a novel product using proprietary algorithms to evaluate the large volumes of data collected by the cell tester during solar cell fabrication. The Insight product evaluates these data to inform the manufacturer - in real time - how well its production equipment is performing, where problems may be occurring, or where yield might be improved.The strategic partnership offers both companies the opportunity for co-marketing and the development of additional value-added features and functionality in their respective products to accelerate their respective business growth.\"We are very pleased to announce this partnership with WAVELABS,\" said Gordon Deans, Aurora's Chief...
