This sounds like a mask inspection tool they developed about three years ago. It used a similar technology. The problem they had at that time was that it was only good for die-to-die inspection, not die-to-data base. For high-end masks (its only market), there was often only one die on the mask; die-to-die was not very useful. That, coupled with being late to market by about a year, killed the product. KLA laughed all the way to the bank.

I'm hoping that this is not just an attempt to revive a failed product.
