LONDON (Alliance News) - Imaging and 3D technology company DDD Group PLC on Wednesday said it has been granted a new patent in the US covering its TriDef SmartCam.
The new patent, filed in September 2010, covers image processing technology used for model the human body.
Applications under the new patent include removing the background from a photo or video sequence in real-time and other depth-enhanced image effects DDD recently started commercialising using the TriDef SmartCam.
"As DDD continues to expand its licensing program into new growth markets including video conferencing, game casting and social photography, it is important that we continue to secure patent protection in key markets for the core inventions that form the foundation for our new products," said Chief Executive Chris Yewdall.
DDD shares were up 14% to 2.00 pence early Wednesday, one of the best performers in the AIM All-Share.
