Cynergy Unlocks the Hidden Potential of Rich Internet Applications through
Cynergy Labs
- Cynergy Labs Launches to Foster a Collaborative, Imaginative Environment for
New Applications of RIAs -

    WASHINGTON, Jan. 15 /PRNewswire/ -- Cynergy Systems, Inc., a global leader
in rich Internet application (RIA) design and development, today announced the
creation of Cynergy Labs, which is intended to give the company's employees
the time, place and funding to build out new applications of RIA technologies.
    The Labs' process provides Cynergy designers and developers with a forum
to pitch a new idea to the company's management team. If the idea is deemed to
be valuable to Cynergy customers and the larger community, the vetted idea is
built out with a dedicated team using Cynergy's LookFirst user-centric
development process.
    "At Cynergy, we feel that being a leader is about more than just being big
-- it's about providing thought-leadership and investing in our community.
RIAs have created a world where, if we can imagine it, we can build it. We
wanted to create an environment that cultivates imagination and enables our
team to brainstorm applications that can unlock the hidden potential in
software," commented Cynergy President Carson Hager.
    Cynergy Labs already has produced its first project -- Maestro -- which
takes interactive RIA user experiences to the next level through a powerful
multi-touch interface that doesn't require a physical touch. In Maestro,
infrared gloves are integrated into a multi-touch Microsoft Windows
Presentation Foundation (WPF) application, allowing users to interact and
navigate within a completely immersive and engaging experience. The
functionality that Maestro's interface provides can be used in many business
software applications, such as facilities management, scheduling solutions,
data mining and OLAP interactions.
    In addition, as a result of the collaborative and creative environment
that the Labs engender, Cynergy won the Microsoft Phizzpop Design Challenge in
Los Angeles in December 2007 and will have the opportunity to compete in March
at South by Southwest (SXSW) to be named the best RIA firm in the world.
