April 12, 2006 DarbeeVision is a software technology that enhances digital images, and provides an unprecedented level of near 3D realism, covering both 3D and 2D approaches. DVn software enables the depth cues of stereo pair images to be naturally expressed for any 2D media (without glasses or expensive hardware) and naturally "smuggles-in" 3D depth cues into 2D created media, resulting in stunning realistic 2D images. Check out the sample images inside. DVn processing has already been used in three major films: Academy Award Winner, Robert Altman's Oscar-winning motion picture "Gosford Park," "Images," and "The Company." Robert Altman said that DarbeeVision is like, "putting on a new pair of glasses." Technical director For Kodak's Cinesite digital effects and digital intermediate businesses, Steve Wright, declared, "Wow! The Darbonized shots had a sharpness, clarity, and scene depth that gave them a 'hyper-realism' compared to the originals...that would make any feature film stand out." Wes Adams from GP Color Imaging Group, a part of the Macintosh desktop publishing revolution from its infancy affirmed, "DarbeeVision is one of those products that is at the cusp of innovation."

The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office issued its patent approval to DarbeeVision Dvn with an exceptional "no claims challenged."

DarbeeVision (DVn) is a software program, which imparts added depth, realism, and a natural ease of vision in all imaging formats. DVn optimizes the data that is delivered, maximizing the visual quality and viewing experience. The process works with any digital image source, still or moving, including celluloid film, digital intermediate for film, SD and HD video, DVDs, digital photography, print media, billboards, posters, digital graphics, videogames and images on the Web.

"Now that our patent has been approved, it is time to fully implement this product and capitalize on the significant number of applications, placements and opportunities for DarbeeVision in the digital media world. Utilizing the DVn software will significantly benefit the consumer's media experience and subsequently a company's bottom line," declared Russell Albright, chief visionary and organizer.

Continuing he stated: "We completed our infrastructure development objectives for 2005 and turn to the market driven opportunities in 2006. We are directing our focus to key companies in media, entertainment and Infoimaging, to utilize this very beneficial software technology, called DarbeeVision!" DarbeeVision is about depth. Depth is the final frontier in imaging, which has not been mastered until now.

Along with color and clarity, depth within an image is a major component in communicating realism. In a natural and synergistic methodology, the DVn process re-formats depth cues into an image, automatically improving the entire visual package, whereby color appears richer (even though no color enhancement is conducted), clarity is increased (even though no contrasting enhancement is conducted). DarbeeVision is an image transformation technology that is not to be mistaken for typical digital image enhancement.

It is truly an artificial intelligence technology, with its origins in neuroscience. DVn is a powerful imaging sweetening software product that makes for a very organic and "humanized" viewing experience, which no camera hardware is capable of producing. Visual media, which has been Darbonized, takes on a type of hyper-realism in the image. It is the first software to accurately synthesize the human visual process.

One of the most exciting upshots of DarbeeVision processing is that the human brain is the decoder, making impressive 3D-like depth effects possible without the use of any external hardware or gadgetry. This is an amazing discovery, since there are over 6 billion human DarbeeVision decoders walking the planet today!

Today, this discovery is monumental in value. The DarbeeVision software technology provides fundamental algorithms for creating image depth. DVn encompasses the visual science of depth, in a manner that is so profound and yet so simple. Its ramifications are virtually endless for the exploding $365 billion-a-year marketplace, called "Infoimaging."
