For Pliable Display Technology
"Once you've seen it, the technology appears natural, almost boring — an indication that it works... I'd like to see this technology in car navigation systems and on sites like MapQuest.com."

"...I knew how to use PDT before I ever saw it because it builds on all of the skills that I developed using traditional media. It shows respect for how I search, examine and understand complex visual information. This is the best form of innovation, what I call surprising obviousness..."

"...[Gmaps] did get me thinking about IDELIX's pliable lens technology... Why are resolution changes discontinuous and global in Google maps, et al., while panning is continuous (and unavoidably global)? In other words, why hasn't Yahoo, Google, or MapQuest licensed IDELIX's technology to create continuous local resolution changes, analogous to the nicely-done panning, where I can pass a lens over the satellite data in realtime?"

"IDELIX represents significant forward thinking in visualizing the battlefield for military operations. PDT's ability to effectively represent fused data layers in a manner that allows more timely, accurate, and reliable decisions to be made, resonates directly with the operational use of SGI systems and their current and future deployments."

"When people interact with our multi-user DiamondTouch table for the first time, I love to show them a demonstration we created with Idelix's PDT. There is a "wow" moment when the person, looking at a satellite image, stretches open a window with their two fingers to reveal the PDT lens. People say, "cool" or "wow" almost every time. On our DiamondTouch table we accommodate multiple simultaneous users, and we have integrated different gestures for opening a lens, tacking it down — with PDT and the direct manipulation of a touch screen, the image really does appear to be pliable!"

"...PDT surpasses existing methods for viewing and interacting with data in increasingly complex digital environments. The ability to pinpoint detailed information while maintaining a complete view of the region of interest is technology that is important across many military, government and commercial applications."

"For over 50 years, Defence R&D Canada has developed new technology so that the Canadian Forces can continue to meet their evolving roles and missions. Small businesses play an important role as they represent a diverse reservoir of new ideas and bring new perspectives on emerging defence and civil markets. We selected IDELIX as a successful applicant under the Defence Industrial Research Program for these reasons and wish them every success with their project."
