Organic Motion`s STAGE and BioSTAGE Systems Go to Schools

Breakthrough Technology to Drive Next Generation Curriculum and New Programs at
Leading Universities and High Schools Worldwide
NEW YORK--(Business Wire)--
Organic Motion, the advanced computer vision software company, today announces
the installation of its turnkey markerless motion capture systems, STAGE and
BioSTAGE, at a number of leading universities and institutions worldwide. The
company's technology dramatically increases a computer's ability to "see" and
understand human motion to generate highly accurate 3D tracking data in
real-time, without using bodysuits or markers. The technology has been selected
to drive innovative curricula and cutting-edge research focused on using human
motion. Students at Rochester Institute of Technology, New York University Tisch
School of the Arts Asia, Indiana University, Marshall University, the University
of Florida, and Tolles Technical & Career Center are all benefiting from Organic
Motion`s advanced and easy-to-use systems.

Organic Motion`s technology essentially creates a `digital clone` of the person
being tracked - without wearing any mechanical tracking devices. By completely
removing the markers, the technology does not require expensive technicians to
operate the systems, or the hassle of time-intensive calibration steps. This
allows students to easily step into a system and personally interact with the
technology to take advantage of a completely hands-on learning environment.

"Institutions must stay competitive to attract new students, and those students
must graduate with the skills necessary to excel in the extremely competitive
environments of digital content creation, data visualization and motion
analysis," said Christine Arrington, Senior Analyst, Acacia Research Group. "By
integrating markerless motion capture, these programs can be much more efficient
and effective in using motion capture as a teaching tool in content creation and
visualization."

"Whether it`s for the film school, research labs, or even the learning hospitals
on campus, we`re honored that these programs selected Organic Motion to deliver
a greater learning experience," says Andrew Tschesnok, CEO Organic Motion. "By
incorporating our technology, these schools are creating a more effective way of
teaching, allowing students to have direct interaction with the most
technologically advanced resource available."

Institutions currently using Organic Motion`s STAGE and BioSTAGE

NYU Tisch School of the Arts Asia

One of the world`s leading Fine Arts institutions selected Organic Motion`s
STAGE system to help students master digital animation and video techniques for
observation, capture, analysis and visualization of motion from real-life.

Digital Worlds Institute, University of Florida

Digital Worlds (DW) is leveraging Organic Motion`s technology to study how
people interact in digital arenas, and to create entirely new virtual
experiences. DW recently integrated the company`s BioSTAGE application, to
encourage collaborative research in psychology, neurology, medicine,
bioengineering, sports sciences, the performing arts and rehabilitation.

Rochester Institute of Technology, Computer Graphics Design and Computer Science

RIT recently installed the STAGE system to enhance the virtual theatre
experience research in cross-departmental, grant supported, research. Plans
extending the use of the system into the classroom in computer graphics,
computer science, medical illustration, new media, games, animation, dance, and
motion graphics.

Indiana University

IU found Organic Motion`s STAGE system ideal for its multidisciplinary research
initiatives. Consistent with its new IT strategic plan, the university already
has plans for uses in the Schools of Education; Health, Physical Education &
Recreation; Communications; Informatics; Telecommunications and Fine Arts.

Marshall University, Center for Environmental, Geotechnical and Applied Sciences

Working closely with the mining industry and U.S. Mine Safety & Health
Administration Academy, Marshall is developing a new generation of mine safety
training technologies and is currently designing new immersive virtual reality
training simulations. The new system will incorporate the Organic Motion STAGE
system that will allow trainees to step in, experience and train in hazardous
environments in a realistic virtual simulation, without the risk of training in
a real hazardous situation.

Tolles Career & Technical Center

Students in Tolles` computer science department are learning how to create
animations for both games and short films. The high school further plans to
integrate Organic Motion`s BioSTAGE biomechanical analysis package, enabling
students to analyze exercises and stress injuries.

Benefits to Education Institutions

Organic Motion`s turnkey STAGE and BioSTAGE systems provide a number of benefits
to institutions, including:

* Transforming the Teaching Experience
* Simplified Capture Process
* Multi-Discipline Applications
* Robust Software Developer Kit (SDK)
