about
dpiX
Headquartered in Colorado Springs, Colorado, dpiX has provided
high-resolution imaging solutions to some of the world's most demanding medical,
industrial and military markets which are on the cutting edge of digital
imaging. Our unique amorphous silicon technology transcends the limits of
conventional imaging.
Foundation of Innovation at Xerox PARC
Our technology is founded upon the legendary Xerox PARC research
program, established in 1970 to create the "office of the future" and the
"architecture of information." In the mid-1980s PARC scientists developed page
size amorphous silicon (a-Si) image sensor arrays for high speed copiers. In the
early 1990s PARC scientists developed the first high resolution color active
matrix liquid crystal display (AMLCD). dpiX produced high definition LCDs for
state-of-the-art military cockpit applications until 2001. By the mid-1990s PARC
scientists had produced X-ray sensors using amorphous silicon. Shipments of
large area amorphous silicon sensor arrays for industrial use began in 1997.
Further developments of these synergistic technologies have evolved into today's
high resolution, large area amorphous silicon sensors.
Extensive Uses in Medical Imaging
dpiX has provided sensors to systems integrators for use in
medical applications since 1998. Our sensors are used in image subsystems for
radiography, fluoroscopy, cardiology and portal imaging. Doctors and clinicians
have benefited from the significant improvements in the versatility and
productivity of real-time X-ray images. They have been able to do on-the-spot
adjustments while viewing live X-ray images in real-time. Another advantage has
been the ability to share visual data in real-time with colleagues in remote
locations for immediate analysis and consultation. Patients have benefited by a
reduction of the X-ray dose required to capture an image. Economic benefits of
dpiX products have been derived from a reduction in storage costs, zero
degradation of stored images and virtually eliminating the need for retakes.
Production of images without the chemical requirements for film processing
results in significant cost, environmental and time-saving benefits.
The Masters of Imaging
dpiX is taking digital image detection into the 21st century with
new and unprecedented advances in image quality, resolution, clarity and speed.
