LOS ANGELES CONVENTION CENTER -- SOUTH HALL, BOOTH #500 -- May 14
/PRNewsire/ -- X3D Technologies, the leading provider of "Extreme 3D" hardware
and software products that are changing the face of entertainment, today
enters in a new era of PC excitement via the debut of the X3D PC, the world's
first PC built from the ground up to deliver unbelievable, three-dimensional
visual home entertainment.
Like any quality Windows(R)-based PC, the X3D PC includes a CPU, keyboard,
monitor, speakers, cables, printer, and all supporting software. But that's
just the beginning. The X3D PC System also includes a high-speed DVD drive,
Hauppauge! TV tuner card, Gforce 4 graphics card, and 21 game titles covering
choices for teens, adults, and children. Best of all, the PC incorporates
X3D's awe-inspiring "Extreme 3D" technology that turns any 2D image into 3D on
the fly. Just put on the special wired/wireless liquid crystal glasses
(included), launch your favorite form of entertainment, and see images
"floating" inside and in front of your monitor screen.
"The X3D PC System is something you have to see to believe. Finally, in
one easy-to-buy, easy-to-use device, people can enjoy ALL their favorite forms
of entertainment in a way they've never experienced before," said Elliot
Klein, CEO of X3D Technologies. "Our 3D technology uses a series of software
conversion algorithms that process over 90 million complex image translations
per second, giving the viewer lifelike realism. 3D television, 3D sports, 3D
home theater, 3D web surfing, 3D games -- it's all yours in one device with
the X3D PC System."
The X3D PC System can turn any PC-based video game into an "Extreme 3D"
experience. Adding to the system's excitement, however, are the full range of
high-quality games bundled with the device that make the most of 3D
technology. For action game buffs, the X3D PC System includes eight titles
including Midnight Racing, Paint Ball Heroes, Roller Coaster World, Speed
Chief, X3D Chess, X3D Model Trains, RingRiker, and MegaCity Challenger.
Younger players can choose Crazy MiniGolf, Parg, Toyland Racer, X3D Marbles,
and Christmas Magic.
Also packaged with the X3D PC System are nine mini-games: AirXonix,
AutoBahn, AnySnake, Gtok, Hypertron, Rollerbot, Skymaze, Tennis Antics, and
TurboToons.
Award-Winning 3D Technology
X3D has re-defined 3D quality and realism for a new generation of
entertainment lovers. Winner of Internet World 2002's "Best of Show" award,
X3D has over 30 patents and patents pending for its X3D technology that
transforms any image into "Extreme 3D."
The X3D system creates 3D depth-of-field using liquid crystal glasses with
lenses that alternate many times per second between clear and opaque (i.e.,
blocked light). Synchronized with the glasses, the monitor screen provides
alternating left-eye/right-eye images. As viewer sees the proper images with
the proper eye, the brain fuses the two slightly different views to create the
three-dimensional effect.
Pricing, Availability
The complete X3D PC System, including PC, monitor, speakers, software, and
peripheral cards, is priced at $1,599 (MSRP), including a Lexmark X75
multifunction printer (can copy, fax, scan, & print). The product will be
available this Spring from leading consumer electronics retailers.
X3D Technologies is demonstrating the X3D PC System from its exhibit at
the Electronic Entertainment Exposition (E3), South Hall/Booth 500 at the Los
Angeles Convention Center, from May 14-16. For more information about X3D
