DOME Announces 16-Bit Windows 3.1 Driver

Waltham, MA - October 28, 1993- DOME imaging systems, inc. announced the
release of the first Microsoft Windows 3.1 software drivers that can
accommodate 12-bit and 16-bit grayscale images. This software is unique in
its ability to handle grayscale images deeper than 8 bits on
high-resolution display hardware manufactured by DOME imaging systems,
inc. This is of particular interest to developers of special applications,
such as medical imaging, that display deep grayscale images at resolutions
ranging up to 2304 x 1792 pixels. The combination of deep image handling
and high resolution has not been available to the Windows market until
now.

The DOME Windows 3.1 driver allows software applications to access the DOME
Software Library through the Windows operating system. This library is an
extensive graphics and image processing toolkit that performs such image
processing routines as fractional zooms, rotations, lookup table
operations, and convolutions. The DOME Windows driver allows the developer
to perform these and other operations on deep grayscale images within a
Windows 3.1 application. The driver can be configured to display only
shades of gray, and it also supports DOME's color hardware by providing a
combination of grays and colors on a single display.

The DOME Windows driver is compatible with all of the DOME imaging boards
designed for the ISA and EISA platforms. These boards support display
resolutions ranging from 1280 x 1024 pixels up to 2304 x 1792 pixels. They
also incorporate special hardware that handles grayscale images up to 16
bits deep. The boards utilize the Texas Instruments 34020 graphics
processor, giving improved performance to Windows applications with the
additional benefit of freeing up the computer's host processor for other
computational activities. The Windows driver for DOME's ISA product, the
Rx20 imaging board, allows the application to run the Windows 3.1
operating system as a single monitor solution. A .DLL file is also
available from DOME for demanding imaging applications that require
multiple display boards in the system.

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.
