I just love magical occlusion. Thursday October 14, 7:15 am Eastern Time Company Press Release Princeton Video Image Inc. Granted New US Patent New Patent Protects PVI's Adaptive Occlusion Processing Technology LAWRENCEVILLE, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 14, 1999--Princeton Video Image, Inc. (NASDAQ: PVII, pvi-inc.com) announced that the Company has been issued another US Patent. According to PVI officials this latest US Patent no. 5,953,076, which was issued on September 14, 1999, covers adaptive occlusion processing - the technology that allows players to walk over PVI's virtual first down line, as seen on CBS's Sunday NFL broadcasts. PVI technology is used to place advertising and other electronic images into live and pre-recorded TV programming. ''Occlusion processing is the magic that makes virtual advertising look real,'' said Dennis Wilkinson, President and CEO of Princeton Video Image. ''This new patent is representative of our technological excellence and will be especially important going forward in narrow-casting. It is the sixth US patent issued to PVI in the area of virtual advertising and adds significantly to our growing world-wide intellectual property rights.'' ''PVI's patented occlusion technology can be applied to practical techniques used to change stadium signage for narrow-casting of in-game advertising,'' added Roy Rosser, PVI's Director of Business Development. Brown Williams, Chairman of PVI, added ''On conventional broadcast TV narrow-casting allows advertisers to target different geographic areas with tailored messages embedded in as part of the program in each market. Used on broad band Internet video transmission, PVI's adaptive occlusion technology will allow demographic targeting by URL.'' Princeton Video Image, Inc. has developed and is marketing a real-time video insertion system that, through patented pattern recognition technology, places computer-generated electronic images into television broadcasts of sporting events as well as other programming. These electronic images range from simple corporate names and logos to sophisticated 3-D images and animated effects. In virtual advertising, broadcasters insert advertising messages into telecasts so that the ads appear as part of the live stadium scene. PVI has provided video insertion services for over 1,200 live telecasts worldwide, including broadcasts of Major League Baseball, National League Football, professional soccer, motorsports, and other live events. The Company is headquartered in Lawrenceville, New Jersey, with offices in New York City and Brussels, with licensees' offices in Mexico City, Johannesburg and Madrid.
