May 18, 2010 (M2 PRESSWIRE via COMTEX) -- Braintree,Ma. LevelStock.com is pleased to announce to all of its members and investors information on Uni-Pixel, Inc. (OTCBB: UNXL). The Company recently released news as follows:
Uni-Pixel, Inc. (OTCBB: UNXL), a development and production stage company delivering its Clearly Superior performance Engineered Films to the lighting & display, solar and flexible electronics market segments, today unveiled UniBoss, a unique embossing technology that enables high-speed, low-cost production of printed electronic devices. In addition, the technology eliminates the need for photolithography or screen printing typically required to produce fine line conductors for rigid and flexible electronic devices.
Potential applications for UniBoss include the production of transparent electrically conductive grids or patterns that can be used for capacitive and resistive touch and multi-touch displays. In addition, the process can be used to fabricate both flexible and rigid printed circuit boards, RFID antennas, as well as transparent electromagnetic Interference (EMI) and radio frequency interface shielding films.
UniPixel plans to initially target UniBoss for the touch panel market, which DisplaySearch forecasts to grow from $3.6 Billion in 2008 to $9 Billion in 2015, with capacitive touch seeing a 27% CAGR over the same period and reaching $4.2 Billion.
"UniBoss is a cost-effective, viable replacement option for ITO-based touch screens," noted Robert Petcavich Ph.D., UniPixel's Chief Technology Officer and Senior Vice President. "There have been many attempts to replace ITO with limited success, but UniBoss offers the first truly viable, robust, low-cost alternative to ITO in display transparent touch screen applications."
Petcavich added, "UniPixel believes that by using its fine-line UniBoss electrodes in touch screen applications, we can increase the touch response speed and accuracy, as well as reduce the power requirements of current ITO-based systems."
UniPixel is currently scaling up the process for full scale production and plans to have pilot production quantities of UniBoss available by Q3'10. The company will showcase the benefits of its UniBoss technology during SID Display Week 2010, to be held May 24-28 in Seattle, Wash. in a private technology suite off the show floor.
