Petach Tikva, Israel – June 16, 2008 – OptiTex has announced that it has
joined forces to advance mutual R&D efforts with NVIDIA, the leading
provider of visual computing technologies.
“Our technologies are allowing virtual designers within the video game industry to benefit from the unique tools OptiTex already provides to the textile industries,” states Ran Machtinger, President and CEO of OptiTex, Ltd. “By combining our design solution with NVIDIA’s unique graphics processing unit, we’re now at the forefront of bringing more lifelike simulation to video screens worldwide.”
OptiTex CAD/CAM technology is poised to add new dimensions of reality to video avatar movement via its customizable, easy-to-use virtual design system depicting true-to-life fabric motion.
NVIDIA’s new CUDA technology enables its graphics processing unit to resolve
complex computational problems. With 240-processor cores, computing with
GPUs provides an unprecedented level of power and includes a complete suite of
developer tools.
"OptiTex' software is an ideal fit for NVIDIA as it
leverages the combined personalities of our CUDA enabled GPUs - rich graphics
and data intensive computation," said Andy Keane general manager of the GPU
Computing business at NVIDIA. "OptiTex' software will deliver new levels of
creative freedom for designers."
“By joining with NVIDIA, we’re creating a new generation of virtual
designers,” concludes Machtinger. “Because OptiTex is already the leader in
true-to-life textile technology it also expands the potential for their
long-term career horizons.”
