DOME Announces Multi-headed High Resolution Display Board for PCI-based
Computers and Workstations

Waltham, MA- March 21, 1995 - DOME imaging systems, inc. announces the
release of the Md2/PCI, a high resolution multi-headed display board for
PCI-based computers and workstations. The Md2/PCI board is intended for
imaging applications requiring exceptionally high-quality displays and
support for multiple display monitors. The board supports a variety of
display resolutions ranging up to 1600 x 1200 pixels (2 megapixels), in
either landscape or portrait orientation. A single board can drive one or
two display monitors, saving valuable PCI slots in multi-headed systems.

The Md2/PCI also features a 10-bit DAC and a luminance calibrator port,
allowing the display monitors to be accurately corrected for grayscale
fidelity. The board's 10-bit DAC can send up to 1024 distinct analog
values to the display monitors, as opposed to the 256 values provided by
most competitive 8-bit boards. This advantage means that the display
monitors can be linearized, using a process known as gamma correction,
with much greater accuracy. DOME also sells a special luminance calibrator
that can be used to measure and correct the monitor's grayscale response.
The end result is a significantly more accurate and higher quality
grayscale image.

The Md2/PCI also enables extremely fast access to image data. It features a
highly optimized zero wait-state PCI bus interface, for the fastest
possible transfers from system memory and from other PCI boards. In
addition, the Md2/PCI's 128-bit wide internal data bus enables on-board
image transfers at speeds up to 150 megabytes per second.

The board runs in PCI-based PCs and Apple Macintosh computers, and it
features on-board acceleration for the windowed operating environments
found on these machines. Its wide internal bus supports high-speed image
copying and a variety of drawing functions, both essential to outstanding
GUI performance. Software for the Md2/PCI includes support for Windows
3.1, Windows 95 and Windows NT. Macintosh operating system drivers will
also be made available early '95. The Md2/PCI and software support are
available now through DOME imaging systems.

DOME imaging systems, inc. is a privately held corporation incorporated in
1989 and located in Waltham, MA. DOME is the leading provider of
innovative imaging solutions, meeting customer needs with quality software
and hardware products.
