VANCOUVER, BC and NEW YORK, NY -- (MARKET WIRE) -- Aug 09, 2011 -- Perceptive Pixel, the leading provider of advanced user interface solutions, today announced the launch of its latest breakthrough product at SIGGRAPH 2011, the premier international conference for computer graphics and interactive techniques. The company unveiled its 82" true multi-touch, projected capacitive (pro-cap) LCD display, the largest optically bonded flat-panel pro-cap display in the world. Featuring a remarkably slim profile, measuring just six inches in depth, the new offering expands Perceptive Pixel's line of professional flat-panel displays, which includes a recently introduced 27" pro-cap desktop display.

Perceptive Pixel is changing the way professionals collaborate, communicate and share information, enabling more intuitive interaction with technology in industries as varied as design, government, finance, media and energy. For computer graphics and animation professionals, touch interactivity has opened up new possibilities for how they interact with and showcase their work. Perceptive Pixel's new 82" wall display is ideal for use in creative, collaborative environments such as design reviews, concept pitches, storyboarding and brainstorming sessions, among others.

Features of Perceptive Pixel's new 82" multi-touch LCD display include:

"No other company can deliver the precision and performance of our best-in-class optically bonded pro-cap displays," said David Slobodin, VP hardware engineering at Perceptive Pixel. "Our new 82" multi-touch LCD represents a technological breakthrough that sets a new standard for the display industry."

"Multi-touch has become fundamental to the way we interact with technology," said Jeff Han, founder and chief scientist, Perceptive Pixel. "Five years ago here at SIGGRAPH, we introduced the first large-scale true multi-touch display based on rear projection technology. I'm proud to be back at SIGGRAPH 2011 with another industry first -- a truly flat-panel 82" display featuring the highly responsive, unlimited multi-touch experience that is the hallmark of our company."

Perceptive Pixel will be showcasing its advanced multi-touch solutions in the NVIDIA booth (#453) at SIGGRAPH 2011. To schedule a demonstration of Perceptive Pixel's new 82" pro-cap display and additional multi-touch offerings, contact Diane Carlson, VP of marketing for Perceptive Pixel.
