Demonstration of 32 inch 3D Display and Insight Media to Advise with 3D Market Entry December 03, 2007 Zecotek Demonstrates 32” 3D Display to Industry; Engages Insight Media to Advise on Market Entry Vancouver, BC, December 3, 2007 - Zecotek Photonics Inc. (TSX-V: ZMS; Frankfurt: W1I), formerly Zecotek Medical Systems Inc., today announced it has initiated demonstrations of the 32” commercial prototype of its proprietary Real-Time 3D2D Display System©, the first 3D display offering multiple viewers true volumetric visualization while exhibiting depth and parallax over a wide viewing angle. The demonstrations have started and are scheduled over the next several weeks at the Company’s Vancouver laboratories for a select group of representatives of potential industry partners.
Zecotek also announced that it has engaged Insight Media, a leading publishing and consulting firm focused on the display industry, to provide advice and guidance on a market entry strategy for the display system.
“We have reached a critical milestone in the commercialization of our 3D display technology with the 32” prototype,” said Dr. A.F. Zerrouk, Chairman, President, and CEO of Zecotek. “Our system delivers true 3D over a wide viewing angle, in high resolution colour and establishes a new benchmark in the 3D industry. Our next step is to select strategic partners in the manufacture and distribution of what we feel is a new and potentially revolutionary display technology and we look forward to working with Insight Media to leverage our market position.”
Zecotek’s Real-Time 3D2D Display System is a novel, proprietary display system for the visualization of images and data. Based on the autostereoscopic principle, but with substantial patent pending innovation, it represents a new generation of 3D displays. The 32” commercial prototype is designed for multi-user, multi-view with freedom of movement. It delivers full colour, high resolution images in both 3D and 2D mode (greater than 1024x768), has superior image dynamic range in 2D mode and the system is compatible with existing applications. Anteryon BV of the Netherlands produced the key screen component of the 3D display.
“We are very impressed with the high resolution, wide viewing angle and multi-viewer features of Zecotek’s 3D display system,” said Geoff Bertenshaw, Chief Executive Officer of Anteryon. “We are pleased to contribute to the production of the first commercial prototype in what we see as a truly breakthrough product. We look forward to building on our strategic partnership with Zecotek.” |
