Avaak develops and builds revolutionary, ultra-low power integrated wireless video sensor platforms that utilize digital imaging and other sensors to provide low-cost, rapidly deployable, real-time video networks. Avaak’s technology is now available for the consumer market under the brand name Avaak Vue Network™, a completely wire-free, user-friendly personal video network. Easy to set up and use, Vue offers consumers the ability to capture personal images/video content in a multitude of environments, and view the footage over the Internet. Non-intrusive, Vue’s technology offers consumers a more affordable, complete level of video coverage, whether in fixed applications like business security or occasional-use situations like a child’s birthday party or soccer game. Avaak was founded in 2005 after collaborating on a project to develop an ingestible pill camera. While working on the project, which married low-power digital imaging and ultra-low power RF transmission technologies, the team began envisioning other suitable applications. Avaak was founded with the mission of developing wire-free video networking products that could be used in a broad range of applications by consumers, business and military customers. » close
Building on a concept that originated in a garage in Massachusetts in 1987, Avid has become the world leader in digital media creation tools for film, video, audio, animation, games, and broadcast professionals – as well as for home video and home audio enthusiasts. Today, the vast majority of primetime television shows, feature films, commercials, and chart-topping pop music hits are made using one or more Avid products. And the company has received the most prestigious awards in the industries it serves – including three Emmys, a Grammy, and two Oscar statuettes: the 1998 Scientific and Technical Award for the concept, design, and engineering of the Avid Film Composer system for motion picture editing, and the 2003 Scientific and Technical Award for the design, development, and implementation of the Pro Tools digital audio workstation. Avid’s presence across the media production industries is so vast that filmmakers, broadcasters, recording engineers, game developers, effects artists, and other content creators often wonder how they ever managed to get their work done in the days before Avid pioneered the concept of using a computer to digitally manipulate film, video, audio, and 3D animation. That spirit of innovation continues to this day, with increasingly powerful, integrated solutions that reflect Avid’s dedication to quality, and its longstanding commitment to empowering the creativity behind the world’s most widely recognized media. » close

The scanners are then bought by chipmakers like Intel. The lasers etch semiconductor chips that go into everyday consumer electronic devices such as iPods, cell phones, blackberries, etc. Cymer has one competitor, Gigaphoton in Japan.
