HumanEyes to Launch Creative3D: 3D Software for the Professional Design Market

Press release from the issuing company

February 7, 2007 – Jerusalem-- HumanEyes’ pioneering 3D technology, already available in products made for photographers and printers, is now engineered specifically for the professional design marketplace with the release of new Creative3D. Creative3D is a stand-alone application offering design-centric tools for 3D and lenticular effects creation, and will show for the first time at Graphics of the Americas in Miami Beach next month. In the meantime, HumanEyes is releasing limited copies through its current printer install base, who are sharing copies directly with their customers, designers and ad agencies. Creative3D pricing will be announced and orders will be taken during Graphics of the Americas, March 2-4 at the Miami Beach Convention Center, where HumanEyes is exhibiting in booth #1703. Creative3D includes highly acclaimed HumanEyes technologies, including exclusive 2D to 3D conversion, which maximizes use of existing image assets; and an interactive Timeline workflow feature giving the user precise creative control of animation effects and flips. HumanEyes now offers dedicated lenticular solutions for all stakeholders in the graphic arts supply chain, from photographers and designers to printers of all types. Designers Can Now Get Into Quality 3D with Low Investment, Complete Control & High Fun Quotient While designers have always appreciated the high-impact, dynamic visual appeal of 3D; they’ve been put off by low-quality offerings, high pricing, and limited control over the creative process. “No more,” says Jeff Miller, Sales Director for HumanEyes, North America. “Creative3D is top-shelf quality with 2007-standard usability and cost efficiency. Translated: it’s a no-brainer. Designers can now, independently, create their own lenticular projects, have full control over the design, and pass the job on for easy output by the printer.” HumanEyes will Connect Designers & Printers for 3D, Flip & Animation Jobs HumanEyes is ready to connect designers with printers who can output their 3D, flip, and animation creations; as the company’s lenticular output applications are being installed in dozens of locations throughout the Americas. “In the past year, the Americas markets have opened up significantly for 3D,” says Miller. “Our installed base of print providers are already giving early versions of Creative3D to their design partners, and now we’re ready to share the first iteration of the finished product with the larger creative market.” Miller says that the numbers of service providers committing to lenticular are growing rapidly. “Modern-day lenticular, as has been introduced by HumanEyes, is a much different animal than the lenticular of old,” he explains. “The truth is that high quality lenticular is no longer the exclusive province of an elite, small group of service providers. The printers buying our lenticular output technology today know that their customers will see marketing campaign investment returns like they’ve never seen before with lenticular – and these same service providers need more design partners.”
