From Dec 2019 to Dec 2024
eMagin Corporation (AMEX:EMA), a leader in virtual
imaging technologies, will demonstrate the power of its new Z800
3DVisor to deliver full 3D video in brilliant color September 2
through 7 in Halle 2, Stand 121 at IFA consumer electronics show in
Berlin. The U.S. company announced the product earlier this year and
began shipping to consumers in early July.
Based on eMagin's OLED (organic light-emitting diode)
microdisplays and patented optics, the 3DVisor delivers high-color,
high-contrast imagery equivalent to a 105-inch screen viewed at twelve
feet, in full-color stereovision. The 3DVisor's high-speed head
tracking enables 360-degree viewing. Completing this experience is an
integrated audio system with high-fidelity ear buds and a built-in,
noise-canceling microphone. To power all these capabilities the
3DVisor requires only a standard USB port and can greatly extend your
laptop's battery life over using the standard backlit laptop screen.
"The Z800 3DVisor illustrates the potential for virtual imaging,"
said Susan Jones, executive vice president and chief marketing
officer, eMagin Corporation. "While computer games are now the primary
3D surround environments, this technology could allow 3D entertainment
- programming that can be viewed from any angle, at any time.
"Learning can move into simulated environments. Grade school
students in Europe could experience the Amazon rain forest in full 3D,
'walking through' a completely new environment, without leaving their
schools." She also outlined ways in which virtual imaging could extend
the work desk across a virtual desktop with many open windows, each
accessible by a glance.
The Z800 3DVisor is eMagin's first product for consumers. The
company supplies its OLED microdisplays, optics, and near-eye viewing
modules, as well as customizable systems, to OEM and ODM
manufacturers. eMagin displays have proven to be low-power, stable
near-eye displays in industrial, military, and medical environments
for applications ranging from 3D simulation to thermal imaging to
augmented reality.
"The Z800 delivers capabilities beyond those of most current
professional simulation headsets," Jones continued. "It's small,
lightweight, and power-efficient. More important, it delivers a great
image in 2D or 3D."
The eMagin Z800 3DVisor is available from www.3dvisor.com or
www.emagin.com for $899 USD.
About OLED
At the heart of the Z800 3DVisor, eMagin's active matrix OLED
(organic light-emitting diode) microdisplays deliver high speed,
high-resolution (800 X 3 X 600), high-color imagery for near-eye
applications. Because OLED materials emit light, the displays are
thinner and lighter than conventional LCDs, and they require less
power, permitting this product to be created without a need for added
battery packs or power adapters. OLED microdisplays offer higher
contrast and a wider dispersion of light, making them more comfortable
to view and usable for near-eye applications. eMagin's 3D OLED
microdisplays recognize and deliver left-eye and right-eye
stereovision signals with unsurpassed efficiency. Color pixel data is
buffered under each pixel site, eliminating flicker and smear.
About eMagin Corporation
A leader in virtual imaging technology, eMagin integrates
high-resolution OLED microdisplays, magnifying optics, and systems
technologies to create a virtual image that appears comparable to that
of a computer monitor or a large-screen television. With unique
technology for producing high-performance small molecule
OLED-on-silicon microdisplays and related optical systems, eMagin is
the only company to supply these displays in commercial quantities to
OEMs. In addition, the company sells integrated modules to military,
industrial and medical customers, and has recently announced its first
consumer system, the Z800 3D Visor. eMagin's microdisplay operations
are co-located with IBM on its campus in East Fishkill, N.Y. Optics
and system design facilities are located in Bellevue, Wash. For
