CAMBRIDGE, England, Jan. 17 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Cambridge Display Technology (CDT) (NASDAQ:OLED) is proud to announce that it was a joint recipient of the Jean Pierre Noblanc Award for Excellence for its participation in a collaborative project to develop a 'Pocket Multimedia' (PMM) display prototype.
The award was instituted by MEDEA+, the European initiative assigned to ensure Europe's competitiveness in microelectronics.
The overall objective of the PMM project was to encourage a shorter time-to-market for mobile multimedia applications by defining and developing a SAP (Silicon Application Platform) targeted to fulfil mobile consumer application requirements.
The PMM work was chosen for the award from a broad range of projects and was selected on criteria such as: degree of innovation, exploitation potential, quality and efficiency of project and co-operation and management.
The European research team included partners from across Europe including: ARMINES-CMM, CDT, Coding Technologies, Philips, STMicroelectronics, Thomson and URMET SISTEMI, working together for three years. Clear product applications have been identified, and as a result of the project, exploitation plans have been developed by a number of the participating companies.
CDT is grateful to the UK DTI for its support during this programme." About CDT
Cambridge Display Technology is a pioneer in the development of light emitting polymers (P-OLEDs) and their use in a wide range of electronic display products used for information management, communications and entertainment. P-OLEDs are part of the family of organic light emitting diodes, or OLEDs, which are thin, lightweight and power efficient devices that emit light when an electric current flows. P-OLEDs offer an enhanced visual experience and superior performance characteristics compared with other flat panel display technologies such as liquid crystal displays, and have the key advantage that they can be applied in solution using printing processes. Founded in 1992, the company is headquartered in Cambridge, UK and is listed on the US Nasdaq National Market under the symbol 'OLED'.
