13.01.10 PDD designed product wins Best New Business Technology product developed in the UK
The Vicon T-Series motion capture cameras, designed by PDD, won Best New Product Developed in the UK at the BCS & Computing Awards for 2009.
This award recognizes significant achievement in business technology product development by UK IT professionals. With 10 finalists in this category, the Vicon T-Series wowed the judges by demonstrating the impressive measurable benefit for customers.
The T-Series, launched last year, proved a genuine technological breakthrough and has customers all over the world. The technology inside the T-Series gives clinicians, engineers and animation artists four times more resolution, the ability to capture smaller objects in larger volumes, and can process data ten times faster than any other motion capture camera on the market.
Nick Bolton, CEO at Vicon’s parent company, Oxford Metrics Group said: “We’re delighted to have won Best New Product Developed in the UK. It’s a great reward for all the hard work and years of research and development that went into it creating the T-Series.
The Vicon T-Series has won a 2009 International Design Forum Award as well.
David Clarke, Chief Executive Officer of BCS, The Chartered Institute for IT, said: “This year’s Awards have been exceptional. I was delighted to take part in the judging day and witness firsthand the quality of the winners and medalists. To qualify as a finalist is terrific, to win is an absolutely fantastic achievement, and I offer my heartfelt congratulations to all those took part. They not only provide examples of best practice but also demonstrate how IT is enabling today’s information society from entertainment to healthcare, manufacturing to retail.”
