Over 10 Million Realeyes3D Handwritten Messaging Enabled Camera Phones Shipped Worldwide
September 21, 2006

-- Sales of Handwritten Messaging Enabled Camera Phones Surge Ahead Worldwide Over Past 12 Months Capturing an Estimated 10% of US Market
    PARIS, Sept. 21 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ -- Realeyes3D, the
pioneer of handwritten messaging, today announced that its
handwritten messaging applications have been shipped in
more than 10 million handsets over the past 12 months.

    Handwritten messaging applications allow camera phone
users to create and exchange messages that have been
written on a piece of paper. A complement to text
messaging, handwritten messaging is a new, richer and more
personal form of messaging. With handwritten messaging
applications Digitizer(TM) and w-Postcard(TM), users can
send messages that they create in their own handwriting,
using a standard pen and any type of paper. Messages are
not restricted to words such as in text messaging, but can
be made of diagrams, maps, doodles, photos or images that
convey emotions, moods, and feelings, creating a highly
personalized message. Introduced as features for camera
phones just eighteen months ago, these applications have
now reached a critical mass for camera phone users
worldwide. In the US market for instance, public market
data and internal company sales metrics show that close to
10% of US camera phones sold over the past 12 months
feature one or more Realeyes3D handwritten messaging
applications.

    "Having 10 million camera phones shipped in major
markets, that offer the choice of sending handwritten
messages instead of text or a simple photograph, is a very
strong validation of our early vision," said Benoit
Bergeret, co-founder and CEO of Realeyes3D. "It shows
that the industry now sees that there is much more value in
the cameras on these handsets than just picture-taking. In
working with our customers, our teams have made handwritten
messaging a reality to millions of customers across the
globe. And thanks to the excellent integration achieved in
highly regarded handsets such as the Samsung SCH-A990 or
the Sanyo W43SA, we expect Digitizer and w-Postcard to gain
further and faster adoption in the near future."

    "10 million people can now enjoy the fun of
sending creative and personal handwritten messages and
'wireless postcards,'" said Philippe Dewost,
Vice-President, Marketing and Business Development,
Realeyes3D. "That's a lot of high-value messages for
senders and recipients, as well as high value data traffic
for carriers because messages that are sent using Digitizer
or w-Postcard could not have been sent with plain MMS or
email. Pictures get out of the phone and are sent only if
they reach a certain degree of uniqueness and
personalization, and that is precisely what handwritten
messaging enables in a very easy, effortless way. This is
why we expect that these 10 million handsets will soon
generate viral growth for the demand of handwritten
messaging on all camera phones."

    Digitizer allows mobile users to jot down any type of
personal message using a standard pen and paper. Digitizer
extracts the message from the camera image, resulting in a
black-and-white or true-color clear, legible handwritten
picture message that can be shared immediately with others.
For mobile users with non-Latin alphabets, such as Japanese,
Chinese or Korean, Digitizer is an ideal way to overcome the
limitations of text messaging. Digitizer messages are not
limited to words but may also include drawings, maps,
symbols or anything that can be created with a pen and
paper.

    w-Postcard allows camera phone users to add comments,
notes, doodles or drawings to pictures they have taken with
their camera phone. Mobile users simply overlay the photo
that they have taken with the handwritten content that
they've created, as described above with Digitizer. Users
can manipulate the handwritten content by changing its
size, color, placement and appearance to create a very
personalized image that then can be stored or sent. 

    W-Postcard makes pictures more personal, more valuable
and more likely to be shared.

    Because it makes use of existing messaging protocols
such as MMS (GSM) and email (CDMA), handwritten messaging
does not require specific software on the receiving handset
side.

    Both applications are powered by Realeyes3D's patented
ink extraction technology, Visual Cortex(TM).
