Default 3DiJoy Launches PC-based Motion-Sensitive Video Gaming Solution in North America

3DiJoy Launches PC-based Motion-Sensitive Video Gaming Solution in North America

Video Game Company Ships New FlingPC-branded Video Game With Industry Leading Motion-Sensitive Remote Technology

SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO, Calif., Dec. 2 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- 3DiJoy Technologies, a manufacturer of sophisticated PC-based, motion-sensitive video game solutions and 3D video games announced today that they will begin shipping their new FlingPC-branded video game solution in time for the Christmas holiday season.

3DiJoy began designing their motion interactive technology 3 years ago in Irvine California. Today, 3DiJoy is a leading motion-sensitive video game company for the PC market, with both sophisticated 3D-enabled wireless remotes and a suite of 10 (ten) in-house developed 3D games.

Li Hsu, 3DiJoy's President and CEO said, "After years of hard work and dedication 3DiJoy is now shipping the most sophisticated motion-sensitive video gaming solution for PC's in the industry. When combined with today's powerful PC's, our new FlingPC provides video gamers with a complete solution, including superb motion-sensitive wireless remotes with the latest technology and a suite of our own great 3D games for a right-out-of-the-box video gaming experience."

3DiJoy's (pronounced 3D-Joy) wireless remote architecture combines multiple technologies for precise motion interaction, including Bluetooth, accelerometer, and a built-in gyro. This technology also provides full wireless mouse functionality, featuring pinpoint accuracy. 3DiJoy's motion-sensing architecture features industry-leading response time and extremely low power consumption, when compared to other competitive solutions. Using a combination of 3DiJoy's advanced hardware and motion interactive software, users have a truly portable video gaming experience, without the need for sensor bars.

"One of the best features of our FlingPC video gaming solution is that our users can easily move it from room-to-room, to their relatives or friends houses, or even on vacations, said Bob Rudy, 3DiJoy's VP of Sales and Marketing. Unlike the other top 3 video game consoles, our FlingPC customers with laptops are no longer tethered with a mass of wires. They can enjoy superb portability with the same level of sophisticated video game performance."

3DiJoy currently has 11 patents filed for their in-house developed hardware, software, and gesture analysis algorithms. 3DiJoy has plans to introduce additional wireless, motion-sensitive devices in early 2009, which will give 3DiJoy OEM partners a diverse line of customizable, motion interactive hardware and software solutions to design into their PC and CE-based platforms.

"Today, the open architecture of our motion interactive remotes and games allows our FlingPC to work on both the PC and Linux platforms, said Li Hsu. This enables 3DiJoy to market our FlingPC motion-sensitive solution to over 300 million XP and Vista-based PC's world-wide, while also partnering with strategic OEM's on other exciting soon-to-emerge video game platforms including cable, satellite, TV 2.0, and TiVo-type solutions."

Pricing and Availability

FlingPC retail packages will be available in limited quantities in December from a soon to be announced major consumer electronics supplier. Pricing will range from $99 for a retail packaged solution with one motion-sensitive remote and ten 3D games, to $149 for a retail package with dual motion-sensitive remotes, ten 3D games, and a special 3DiJoy promotional software bundle. This 3DiJoy software bundle allows for future releases of specific 3rd party designed video games to work seamlessly with the FlingPC.

FlingPC retail packages also provide a free Bluetooth dongle for PC's without embedded Bluetooth, plus a 3DiJoy Software Installation DVD, User Manual for hardware and games, and cables for connecting to LCD or Plasma HDTV's for an incredibly vivid, big screen video gaming experience.
