NEOLUX ANNOUCES INK-IN-MOTION¡¯S ENTRANCE INTO THE ELECTRONIC ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY
Microsoft Utilizes Revolutionary Point-of-Purchase Technology
for Latest XBOX Game Release Promotion
 

Seoul, Korea and Cambridge, Mass.- April 14, 2005- Neolux Corporation, a leading manufacturer and distributor of advertising and promotional displays, today announced the first major commercial sale within the electronic entertainment industry of Ink-In-Motion¢ç, a flashing electronic display that combines the proven promotional effectiveness of motion with the visual appeal of ink-on-paper. Microsoft Corporation is using this cutting edge point-of-purchase (POP) technology to promote its latest XBOX offering, Bioware¡¯s Jade Empire, in stores today.

In addition to its paper-thin package, a typical Ink-In-Motion display can animate continuously for up to 6 months using just two AA batteries. T hese displays are ideal for high-impact POP signs in retail environments where access to power outlets are often limited. In addition to long battery life, these displays can be easily viewed from all angles and under virtually any lighting condition.

¡°We are very happy to have Microsoft as an Ink-In-Motion customer. This unique technology was able to meet the customer¡¯s requirements for effective animation, easy installation, and on-time distribution.¡± said Woo-Jong Kang, CEO of NeoLux.

The Ink-In-Motion solution that Neolux created for Jade Empire was unlike any other motion POP solution Microsoft has used. Microsoft was particularly pleased with the displays ¡°eye-catching¡± appeal, which will ensure consumer stopping power, and its thinness and long battery life allow for an easy roll-out to their distribution channel.

The core enabling technology for Ink-In-Motion is an electronic paper display material manufactured by E Ink Corporation called electronic ink. Processed into an imaging film, this electronic ink layer is sandwiched between a customized electronics layer and a color overlay to give marketers a wide range of design freedom for effective advertising and promotional campaigns.

"POP designers have long recognized the value of adding animation, but they faced troublesome limitations in design, space, cost, and power. Now, with Ink-In-Motion, they can add a simple motion component that builds their brand, integrates easily, and lasts for months on batteries," said Ryosuke Kuwada, vice president of sales and marketing for E Ink.
