Chatten Associates, Inc., reports a new application for eMagin’s (AMEX:EMA) Z800 3DVisor. The Pennsylvania-based hardware developer has turned the popular gaming device into a controller for remotely driven vehicles. “We simply modified the 3DVisor to fit on a soldier's night vision helmet mount,” noted John Chatten, CEO and president, Chatten Associates. “Soldiers responsible for disposing of explosive ordnance use it as part of a head-aimed vision system to look for road-side bombs. Wherever the soldier looks, the sensor gimbal-mounted on the vehicle looks (courtesy of the Z800's motion detectors). For soldiers wearing the system, it's like being out there, except they don't get hurt if the bomb goes off." Chatten Associates believes its head-aimed remote viewer (HARV) brings unmatched tele-operations effectiveness to every remotely operated vehicle. By providing a compelling level of telepresence, HARV creates a several-fold increase in situational awareness and decision speed. Its head-aimed vision process harnesses the natural visual processing capability of the human mind at an unconscious level. The result is a 3-4x increase in mission effectiveness and tele-robotic productivity. Joseph Wu, the U.S. Army Director of the Explosive Ordnance Disposal Technology Directorate commented, “The system and technology will greatly benefit current operations and save lives.” “We’re proud to have created a product that serves so effectively and can potentially save lives,” said Susan Jones, executive vice president, eMagin Corporation. “This is one more application that takes the Z800 3DVisor beyond gaming and entertainment. The product is proving to be a useful tool for a number of simulation applications as well.” The Z800 3DVisor provides superb 3D stereovision and headtracking for PC gaming, training and simulation, and other applications. At the 2006 Consumer Electronics Show, the Z800 3DVisor won the coveted CEA Innovation of the Year award in the digital display category and a Design and Engineering Innovation Award for the electronic gaming category. The Z800 3DVisor delivers a high-color, high-contrast virtual image equivalent to a 105-inch screen viewed at twelve feet, in full-color stereovision. Its high-speed headtracking provides full 360-degree viewing, enabling users to look around and move in the virtual world much like they do in the real world. It is powered by two OLED panels (1.44 million pixels each) with 800 x 600 resolution in more than 16 million colors. Completing the near-immersive experience is an integrated, audio system with stereo earbuds and a noise-canceling microphone. To power all these capabilities, the Z800 3DVisor requires only a standard USB port and can greatly extend a laptop's battery life when it is used instead of the standard LCD laptop screen. About Chatten Associates Founded by John Chatten in 1972 to focus on human/robotic interfaces, Chatten Associates, Inc. has conducted several DoD and DARPA contracts to develop the vision systems to provide vision-based control systems for robotic equipment. The company also developed a successful line of medical diagnostic equipment under the brand name “Telefactor.” Currently, Chatten Associates is working on several projects for the US Army to use robotics in saving lives in Iraq in the fight against roadside bombs.
