TORONTO, Sept. 30 /CNW/ - iseemedia Inc. (TSX-VENTURE:IEE), a leading provider of rich content creation and delivery solutions for web and wireless markets, announced today that it is collaborating with AMD (NYSE: AMD) to bring its award-winning panorama creation and other image enhancement technologies to mobile camera phones. Through this effort, iseemedia's iseephoto(TM) panorama creation technology that is embedded in most of Kodak's digital cameras is now offered on AMD Imageon(TM) M180 media processor designed for mobile phones and other handheld devices. Work is ongoing to integrate this technology with AMD Imageon application processors as well.

Rapid, high-quality processing of panoramic images is key to a compelling mobile consumer experience. The AMD Imageon M180 media processor offers high-quality image signal processing (ISP) with features such as digital image stabilization (anti-shake) and other enhancements for a very compelling, multi-megapixel camera solution for mobile phones.

Complementing AMD Imageon processors, iseemedia's innovative technologies provide the ability to create high-quality; high-resolution panoramic images by implementing additional real-time image enhancement technologies, such as lens distortion and tilt correction, to further improve picture quality. With this collaboration, mobile phone manufacturers implementing iseemedia solutions can benefit from outstanding ISP features and rapid processing enabled by AMD technology.

"iseemedia's iseephoto(TM) panorama creation solution enables mobile consumers to capture high-quality images and seamlessly create 3D panoramas on the go," said Andrew Thompson, director of marketing for AMD's Handheld division. "Optimizing iseemedia solutions to leverage the processing power of AMD Imageon processors is one more example of how AMD delivers The Ultimate Visual Experience(TM) to consumers when and where they choose."

According to a recent industry research report, global shipments of camera phones will jump from over 700 million units in 2007 to surpass 1.3 billion in 2012 accounting for nearly 90% of all mobile phone shipments in 2012 (Worldwide Camera Phone Forecast: 2007-2012, InfoTrends Inc., July 2008). iseemedia is well poised to address this exploding market with is iseephoto (TM) solutions suite.
