 for Government, Defense and Intelligence ProfessionalsNew York – Oct. 13, 2011 – Perceptive Pixel, the leading provider of advanced user interface solutions, today announced that it will showcase its interactive multi-touch hardware and software technologies at the
GEOINT 2011 Symposium (booth # 911), taking place Oct. 16-19, 2011, in San Antonio, TX. At GEOINT, the nation’s largest intelligence event of the year, Perceptive Pixel will join partners that include Lockheed Martin, the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO), NVIDIA and others to be announced at the event to demonstrate new and existing software applications leveraging the company’s pioneering multi-touch offerings, including its projected capacitive (pro-cap), optically bonded displays and ground-breaking active stylus.
True, unlimited multi-touch offers defense and intelligence professionals a vastly more intuitive and efficient way to interact with complex geospatial information. Perceptive Pixel’s platform, which includes a full line of hardware solutions and software applications, leads the field in the quality of multi-touch interactivity and sets the standard for responsiveness, performance and reliability. At GEOINT 2011, the company will demonstrate:
- Perceptive Pixel Platform – Perceptive Pixel’s full solution offering will be available for demonstration, including its optically bonded, pro-cap 82-inch and 27-inch LCD displays, its 55-inch LCD display and its Storyboard presentation software with Touchcast for real-time interaction with remote applications. Additionally, the company will feature its new active stylus which, when launched later in 2011, will be the most advanced tool available for ultra-precise detail work in a multi-touch environment.
- Partner Applications – This year the Perceptive Pixel booth will include demonstrations of new software applications from partner Lockheed Martin and others. In addition, NRO (booth # 229), and NVIDIA (booth #212) will each demonstrate the power of Perceptive Pixel’s multi-touch offerings and application programming interfaces for defense and intelligence organizations.
“Multi-touch represents a growing frontier in government and intelligence technology, and our partners include some of the most respected organizations in this ecosystem,” said Bob Pette, chief operating officer, Perceptive Pixel. “Working together, we’ve just begun to tap into the enormous potential for using multi-touch to transform the way professionals in this field leverage technology to enhance their productivity; provide improved insights and analysis; and, ultimately, make better, faster decisions. The release later this year of our revolutionary active stylus, which will enable simultaneous pen and touch input, will accelerate this transformation and provide an entirely new way to interact with the massive amount of data these professionals work with every day.”
