Matsushita develops new disk technology

Tuesday September 8, 5:18 am Eastern TimeTOKYO, Sept 8 (Reuters) -
Matsushita Electric Industrial Co Ltd
announced on Tuesday that it has developed a technology which
will enable video disks to store up to twice as much content and
directly overwrite recordings.

The company said the technology will use phase-change material
which will maintain compatibility with the digital video disk (DVD) structure.

It will introduce this technology at a conference in Hiroshima on September 15.

It will be the first time a company has developed a rewritable dual-layer phase-change optical
disk, Matsushita said.

It said that applications will include the ability to contain six hours of seamless video
recording on a 12 cm DVD disk.
