Laser projectors to be sold through Intel's US distribution channels from next month.
REDMOND, Wash., Jul 28, 2011 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- MicroVision, Inc., the leader in innovative ultra-miniature laser display technology, today announced an agreement with Intel(R) to distribute and resell its SHOWWX(TM) family of laser pico projectors through Intel's U.S. distribution channels.
The agreement enables Intel's small and mid-size business (SMB) and education customers to gain access to one of the only pico projectors that easily slips into a shirt pocket to offer a big-screen, focus-free display for visual collaboration and content sharing anywhere. Participation in the Intel Channel Access Program offers MicroVision the opportunity to partner with Intel and its broad base of premier channel partners to increase awareness of the unique benefits of the SHOWWX+ laser pico projector product line, particularly for SMB and education use cases and applications.
"Intel strives to bring innovative products to our partners to continuously enhance the value proposition from Intel core offerings. SHOWWX+ delivers a unique laser-based experience providing a big-screen viewing experience from a wide variety of mobile devices, computers and consumer electronics," stated Sharon Alt, North America Channel Sales Director, Intel Corporation.
"Now, people from students and faculty to field sales and service personnel have a visually compelling way to share information on a large screen without having to compromise the important ease-of-use and mobility attributes of this device."
SHOWWX+ easily connects to netbooks, notebooks, tablets, Apple products and other mobile computing devices--anything with TV-Out or VGA functionality. In mobile settings, where traditional display technology is not accessible, business users can unlock content from their notebooks and tablets, using SHOWWX+ to display presentations, videos or other data on any surface.
Educators can augment field trips by projecting additional information on top of real-world objects or easily equip multiple student workgroups to deliver visually compelling multimedia presentations. With a two-hour battery life, the industry's shortest throw ratio and the market's leading focus-free laser display technology, SHOWWX+ is also the perfect travel companion for viewing movies or playing video games in cramped quarters or on variable display surfaces.
"As we continue to expand use models and sales channels for our leading SHOWWX+ product line, it is especially gratifying to see industry leaders like Intel share the same vision," said Alexander Tokman, president and CEO, MicroVision. "We're on a mission to empower people to view, share and collaborate big anywhere."
MicroVision's SHOWWX+ laser pico projector will be available through select Intel channel partners next month. Intel Technology Provider Partners may learn more at www.intel.com/reseller.
