25th September, 2006
San Francisco, CA, USA: September 25, 2006. In an enormous boon for Australian technology innovation, South Australian based, Digislide, has been designated a Finalist in the World Technology Awards, to be held in San Francisco later this year.
Digislide’s Digismart Miniature Projection Technologies were today named as Finalists in the category of “Corporate IT Hardware”.
Kathryn Whitlow, Program Director of the 2006 World Technology Summit & Awards, has congratulated Digislide “for being peer-nominated as doing the innovative work of the greatest likely long-term significance in your field.”
Luceille Outhred, CEO of Digislide said, “It is exceedingly beyond anything we could have asked or imagined, to become a Finalist for such a prestigious award. The designation provides sound validation for the market potential, and also reward for everyone at Digislide. I believe Digislide has an excellent chance of winning.”
Digislide joins industry leaders Palm, Samsung, LG Electronics, and Lenovo in the 9 strong field of finalists.
Since exhibiting at DEMO 06 (USA) and Innovate! Europe earlier this year, Digismart Miniature Projection Technologies have captured worldwide attention from global brands, investors, manufacturers, potential alliance partners, and the world press.
Digismart is a miniature projector capable of projecting an A3 size image in ambient light, and a larger image in a home theatre environment.
Digismart may be embedded or supplied as a stand alone projection peripheral for mobile phones, PDAs, MP4 players, GPS units, hand-held gaming devices, digital cameras and even laptops. The enhanced functionality that Digismart provides eliminates the constraints of viewing an image on a small screen display.
Hailed as a “Top 100 Global Innovator”, and new Finalist in the World Technology Awards, Digislide simply requires venture capital to finalise commercialization and global expansion.
