Lattice Technology Releases Revolutionary High Performance XVL for 3D Data Publishing


New XVL technology provides 10GB+ data handling at speeds 4-10 times faster than previous XVL products


Los Altos, CA. January 31 2006 – LATTICE TECHNOLOGY, INC. today announced the release of its upgraded XVL technology that delivers the industry’s highest-performance products for 3D publishing, 3D data communication and sharing, and also delivers super-fast 3D model viewing and data handling for large assemblies. All Lattice applications, using the new XVL technology, will be released globally in February 2006.

Lattice Technology believes that the three key needs for high-performance 3D data viewing are; small data size, a high-speed data display, and small memory consumption. XVL products now enable customers to benefit immediately from these enhanced qualities while sharing, communicating and publishing 3D data.

XVL builds from the very-high-compression already available with the original XVL while more than 70% reducing memory consumption needed while viewing large data-intensive 3D assemblies. It has also decreased viewing times about 50%.

“XVL products can handle 3D CAD data files that are larger than 10 Gbytes in size as nimbly and quickly as much smaller assemblies. In addition, initial display times are 4-10 times faster.” states Hiroshi Toriya, CEO, Lattice Technology Inc. “With the increased size of 3D assemblies for digital design review sessions and global data sharing, this kind of improvement provides massive productivity increases for ‘digitally-aware’ manufacturers.”

The Lattice product lines for 3D Publishing and Design Review will support the new XVL as of February 2006. This will allow customers’ work processes that involve large 3D assemblies to be better supported, easier to execute and productivity will see further improvements. General manufacturing that needs to access large 3D assemblies include automotive, aerospace and heavy machinery design.

XVL
"XVL" (eXtensible Virtual world description Language) is based on XML (eXtensible Markup Language) and enables ultra-lightweight 3D model compression. Without compression 3D data models can be huge and unwieldy. “XVL” solves the problem with ultra-compression and high accuracy simultaneously.

About Lattice Technology, Inc.
