Fovia Inc., headquartered in Palo Alto, California, has developed High Definition Volume Rendering®, a proprietary, software-only technique that delivers unparalleled quality and performance. Volume rendering has become invaluable for a wide variety of applications in many fields, including medical, industrial, geoscience and bioscience.

The Company’s volume rendering technology has superior interactive image quality, better memory utilization and far lower computational costs than any currently available solution – including expensive, dedicated workstations and other hardware-based approaches. The performance improvements in Fovia’s HDVR™ engine stem from proprietary, adaptive algorithms that provide interactive, supersampling quality on desktop PCs and networked laptop computers, without using specialized hardware or video cards.

The ability to deliver non-compromised remote renderings (including via the internet or over wireless connections) is one of the main advantages of Fovia’s system. With the Company’s HDVR™ architecture, any networked personal computer or laptop can serve as an advanced 3D processing workstation, enabling a paradigm shift in imaging workflow.

The Company’s HDVR™ algorithms and architecture are designed to take full advantage of the future directions in both imaging and computing – larger datasets, larger projection displays, dual-core processors, multi-CPU environments and clustering – without sacrificing quality or performance. Not only does Fovia’s HDVR™ engine provide unparalleled image quality and rendering performance today, but it is designed to broaden the gap between the Company and its competitors in the future. Solutions that rely on specialized hardware and/or video cards are at a significant disadvantage in terms of scalability.

Fovia has designed its HDVR™ software engine to be easily integrated into various original equipment manufacturers’ offerings, thereby allowing imaging modality manufacturers, PACS companies and other imaging OEMs to easily, quickly and cost-effectively integrate a best-of-breed 3D solution.
