PCTR looks good for a double from here. It hasn't reacted to the, IMO, incredible news today.
PCTR News:
Perceptronics Creates New IC3D Web Site
for Internet Collaborative 3D Technology

PR Newswire - February 03, 1999 12:40

WOODLAND HILLS, Calif., Feb. 3 /PRNewswire/ -- Perceptronics, Inc.
(OTC Bulletin Board: PCTR) today announced it has opened a special
Web site in response to the large amount of interest shown in its IC3D(TM)
Technology for Internet Collaborative 3D, including the InterGame
Framework and related products and services. Perceptronics' new
IC3D(TM) Web site can be found on the Internet at
ic3d.perceptronics.com.

Dr. Gershon Weltman, Perceptronics' chairman and chief executive officer,
said, "The new Web site provides an effective way for us to communicate
our IC3D capabilities. Our targets are the people and organizations that
already know something about the IC3D Technology Perceptronics is
developing -- and the many more who should know, because of the great
benefits IC3D can bring to their Internet applications. Our site will evolve
continuously as our technology and product line develops."

"The most important feature of the IC3D Web site is the detailed
description and initial 'hands-on' demonstration of our Head of the River
Challenge collaborative rowing game," said Dr. Weltman. "Head of the
River Challenge, or HOTRC, was created together with Shout Interactive
of San Francisco as a proof-of-concept demonstration of Perceptronics'
InterGame Framework. It is a leading-edge 3D virtual rowing simulation
that allows multiple players, operating from separate computers on the
Internet, to row together in the same shell, and race against live or
automated players in another shell.

"By showing how remote users can truly collaborate via the Internet to
affect 3D virtual objects in a 3D virtual environment, the HOTRC game
illustrates the unique advantages that fully-immersive shared virtual
experiences can bring to Internet applications."

"The IC3D Web site contains a version of the HOTRC game that allows
two players to collaborate in the rowing task using one computer, or even
one adept player to experience the collaborative action by himself or herself.
The initial Web demonstration is less complete than the multi-station version
available at Perceptronics. Nevertheless, it does effectively show the
collaborative capabilities of the IC3D simulation, and that these capabilities
can be realized using open resources readily available on large numbers of
Internet-linked PCs. Our plan is to install a multi-station demonstration of
HOTRC on the IC3D Web site in the future."

"The IC3D Web site emphasizes the revolutionary benefits that
Perceptronics' IC3D Technology brings to 3D interactivity on the Internet,"
continued Dr. Weltman. "It also provides valuable background on the IC3D
Technology. This includes its origins in powerful, well-established DoD
communication protocols for large scale networked simulation, as well as its
architecture -- which incorporates Java, Living Worlds, VRML, standard
Internet browsers, and the InterGame Framework. The site outlines the
benefits of Perceptronics' IC3D Technology in the leading applications
areas of entertainment, education, communication and e-commerce, and
describes the application development services and interim products
currently being offered by the Company."

"We hope people will visit our new IC3D site," concluded Dr. Weltman,
"and contact us with feedback as well as with opportunities for service. We
firmly believe that Internet Collaborative 3D is not only the next big thing in
the rapidly expanding Internet market, but a truly better means of
communicating and interacting. It will help establish the 'digital communities'
within which a good part of the world's population will soon work, play and
shop."

LA, PCTR, another undiscovered gem, just like WWWX yesterday and MXNT the day before. ic3d.perceptronics.com -- I am going to download their software and try to play their Head of the River 3D game now.

Dr. Gershon Weltman, Perceptronics' chairman and chief executive officer is a renowned technologist in the internet 3D graphic area, and this ic3d technology they just unveiled look awesome.

The company has been awarded contract by the U.S. Army Simulation, Training and Instrumentation Command (STRICOM) and the California Technology Investment Partnership (CalTIP) Program and the associated equity investments. This company actually has earnings and sizable revenues, total outstanding is about 3.44 Million shares (extrapolated from the following press release - $68,909 amounted to 0.02 earnings per share, so total outstandings would be 68,909 x 100 / 2 = 3.44 millions. The float must be considerably smaller.

Perceptronics Announces 1999 First Quarter Results

WOODLAND HILLS, Calif., Aug. 14 /PRNewswire/ -- Perceptronics, Inc.
(OTC Bulletin Board: PCTR) today announced that the Company reported a profit
for its first quarter ended June 30, 1998 of $3,222, or $0.00 per share, on
revenues of $832,952. In its first quarter of the previous year, the Company
had a profit of $68,909, or $0.02 per share, on revenues of $978,609.
Dr. Gershon Weltman, chairman and chief executive officer, said, "The
lower first quarter revenues resulted primarily from the relative timing of
PGTS contracts, as sales in the networking technology area rose 38% due to
recently announced awards. Gross profit was approximately the same, because
the cost of sales in first quarter 1999 decreased 23% over that of first
quarter 1998. However, net profit in first quarter 1999 was reduced due to
additional expenditures for audit, international marketing, and consulting and
internal R&D associated with the development of the Company's InterGame(TM)
product for networking multi-player, on-line Internet games."
"We are very pleased with the progress being made on the InterGame(TM)
software product as a result of our recently announced development contract
awards from U.S. Army Simulation, Training and Instrumentation Command
(STRICOM) and the California Technology Investment Partnership (CalTIP)
Program and the associated equity investments. This includes formation of a
distinguished technical and business advisory group, as described in a
separate announcement. We have assembled a world-class development team that
we believe will make a major impact in this rapidly expanding market --
encompassing educational, medical, e-commerce and other applications -- as
well as gaming. At the same time, we are continuing to actively market our
military trainers and services, building on our growing reputation for
reliable, effective products and on-schedule delivery."
