Throughout the Technology
Showcase, ATP awardees exhibited a wide range of exciting ATP-funded
emerging and enabling technologies in various stages of technical
application and business development. Attendees were able to view
demonstrations of these new technologies and discuss first-hand
with company representatives,those technical and business accomplishments
that offer significant potential for broad-based, national economic
benefits. As in previous years, the ATP Technology Showcase presented
a special opportunity for attendees and showcase exhibitors to network
based on technical and commercial interests, with the possibility
of collaborations developing in the interest of applying to the
ATP, or private alliances to further technology diffusion into the
marketplace.
The Technology Showcase
highlighted numerous technology areas including:
- A cloned pig brought
to the showcase by PPL Therapeutics, who are developing technologies
to provide genetically modified pigs for xenogeneic transplants
of pig organs and tissues to humans.
- The cinema of the
future at the exhibit by DemoGraFX, who have developed
a compression and decompression system to enable the secure end-to-end
deployment of digital media.
- The world's first digital
X-ray medical system (GE and Perkin Elmer (then EG&G Reticon))
that enables faster and better X-ray examinations for patients
creating new opportunities for improved medical care in the areas
of breast cancer and heart disease.
- Frontiers of technology
that have been expanded as a result of industry and ATP partnerships
enabling pathbreaking technologies bound to affect your life in
a positive way.
