Zenith named as FOCUS technology partner (last sentence): SUDBURY, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 29, 1998--FOCUS Enhancements, Inc. (NASDAQ:FCSE)(NASDAQ:FCSEW) announced today that the Company's TView FS300 ASIC based PC-to-TV products are in full production and the product is shipping globally..... The new TView FS300 digital video co-processor is currently the most flexible PC-to-TV video convergence chip in the market since it works with TVs, PCs, or set-top boxes to display computer images without any additional software drivers, or external circuitry. It is the only such product available which does not require software to be VGA chip independent, making integration of FOCUS technology easier and more cost effective than other competitive products. The technology is truly plug and play since it can accommodate any refresh rate up to 90HZ, as opposed to PC-to-TV solutions from recent competitors that accommodate up to 60HZ refresh rates. The FOCUS FS300 digital video co-processor is the only PC-to-TV encoder that supports resolutions of 640 x 480, 800 x 600, and 1024 x 768. Recently announced competitive devices can only support resolutions up to 800 x 600. The FOCUS single solution convergence chip also provides underscaling, compression, and visibility at levels exceeding all competitive products. FOCUS Enhancements OEM / licensing group has established PC-to-TV video convergence technology partnerships with companies such as Philips, Fairchild Semiconductor, PictureTel, Zenith, and Apple Computer.
