AMD Liquid­VR™ Tech­no­lo­gy Wins Pres­ti­gious Lumie­re Award

AMD Liquid­VR™ tech­no­lo­gy reco­gni­zed as a new tech­no­lo­gy dri­ving the crea­ti­ve indus­try for­ward by the Advan­ced Ima­ging Socie­ty, repre­sen­ting pre­mier Hol­ly­wood stakeholders — 

HOLLYWOOD, Cali­for­nia — Octo­ber 5, 2015 — AMD (NASDAQ: AMD) today announ­ced AMD Liquid­VR™ tech­no­lo­gy, an AMD initia­ti­ve dedi­ca­ted to making vir­tu­al rea­li­ty (VR) expe­ri­en­ces as com­for­ta­ble and rea­li­stic as pos­si­ble, was reco­gni­zed with the pres­ti­gious Lumie­re Award by the Advan­ced Ima­ging Socie­ty for inno­va­ti­on in enter­tain­ment tech­no­lo­gy at the 7th Annu­al Tech­no­lo­gy and New Pro­duct Awards Lun­che­on at the Para­mount Pic­tures Stu­di­os on the Para­mount Lot in Hol­ly­wood, Calif.

We are hono­red by the indus­try reco­gni­ti­on of AMD Liquid­VR™ as the future in the field of crea­ti­ve arts and sci­en­ces in Hol­ly­wood,” said Raja Kodu­ri, seni­or vice pre­si­dent and chief archi­tect, Rade­on Tech­no­lo­gies Group, AMD. “With AMD Liquid­VR™ tech­no­lo­gy, deve­lo­pers in the film indus­try to deve­lo­pers in gam­ing, medi­ci­ne, rese­arch and edu­ca­ti­on can ful­ly unlock the GPU hor­se­power in Rade­on™ and tog­e­ther, we can crea­te breath­ta­king and revo­lu­tio­na­ry VR experiences.”

AMD’s pio­nee­ring VR tech­no­lo­gy is poi­sed to bring bet­ter con­tent, com­fort, and com­pa­ti­bi­li­ty to VR appli­ca­ti­ons. Gui­ded by clo­se col­la­bo­ra­ti­on with key tech­no­lo­gy part­ners and deve­lo­pers in the eco­sys­tem, Liquid­VR™ uses AMD’s GPU soft­ware and hard­ware sub-sys­tems to tack­le the com­mon issues and pit­falls of achie­ving “pre­sence” — a sta­te of immersi­ve awa­re­ness whe­re situa­tions, objects, or cha­rac­ters within the vir­tu­al world seem “real.”

The Lumie­re Award by the Advan­ced Ima­ging Socie­ty reco­gni­zes new tech­no­lo­gies and pro­ducts in the mar­ket­place that are dri­ving the crea­ti­ve indus­try for­ward. With the man­da­te of informing crea­ti­ve pro­fes­sio­nals of emer­ging inno­va­tions and cut­ting-edge tech­no­lo­gies, Advan­ced Ima­ging Socie­ty repres­ents the world’s lea­ding com­pa­nies and orga­niza­ti­ons in crea­ti­ve arts and sciences.
