New Kaon v-OSK Presenter Delivers Interactive Experiences to the Big Screen


(Marketwire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) MAYNARD, MA, September 16 / MARKET WIRE/ --

Kaon
Interactive, Inc., creators of interactive sales and marketing solutions
that bring products to life, today announced the launch of its presentation
technology, the Kaon
v-OSK Presenter(TM). A high-definition, integrated touch screen appliance, the Kaon
v-OSK Presenter allows Kaon's dynamic, 3D interactive product models and
system demonstrations to be viewed simultaneously on a secondary display
via a projection system, video wall, or large monitor, to reach and engage
larger audiences.

Perfect for keynote speeches, training sessions, tradeshow presentations
and other larger audience venues, the Kaon v-OSK Presenter seamlessly
projects Kaon's interactive applications -- in real time -- while
maintaining superior quality. Through dynamic interactivity and product
visualization, Kaon's applications weave together 3D model demonstrations,
interactive flow
diagrams, video, PDF
documents and presentations, simplifying sophisticated product stories
in a compelling and captivating way.

Complementing the
Kaon v-OSK?, which is used extensively as the premier interactive
platform for one-on-one and small group demonstrations, the new Kaon v-OSK
Presenter delivers the incredible realism and interactivity of Kaon's
solutions to larger audience forums. Executives, sales teams and marketing
managers presenting to any audience are now able to demonstrate products
from every angle, showcasing features and options such as opening drawers
and changing components -- an experience akin to having a product in hand.
Furthermore, in addition to presentation features such as circling items
and pointing to specific elements on a digital display, the Kaon v-OSK
Presenter allows individuals to crop and zoom in on segments to highlight
important features. This engaging, interactive approach bolsters audience
attention span and enhances information retention.

"The ability to take a customizable, interactive presentation to larger
audiences offers all kinds of benefits," said Ori Ben-Moshe, Senior
Manager, Technical Product Marketing at ECI Telecom, a global provider of
networking infrastructure solutions. "We are able to better articulate --
and differentiate -- our platforms' features and advantages, as well as our
messaging. This dramatically enhances the dynamics of information delivery
and allows us to tell a more compelling story, for a more memorable
presentation, and ultimately more effective marketing and sales tool."

The Kaon v-OSK Presenter is an all-in-one, fully integrated system
comprised of a presenter workstation and a universal connection supporting
a variety of video output configurations, including projectors, video walls
and secondary monitors.

"The ability to engage and captivate customers and prospects is
increasingly more difficult to achieve as expectations evolve and new, interactive technologies emerge," said

Gavin Finn, president and CEO of Kaon Interactive. "And, when you've got a
large audience, the difficulty increases exponentially."

Finn continued, "The Kaon v-OSK Presenter draws large audiences into an
engaging experience through dynamic interactivity and 3D virtual product
visualization that is tailored to the audience's specific needs, and
responses to their questions. This makes for a truly interactive
environment regardless of the size of the audience."

Recent Kaon accolades include:

-- The MITX (Massachusetts Innovation & Technology Exchange)

'Interactive/Online Business' Award

-- Trade Show Executive Magazine's International 'Innovation' Award

-- Named one of "10 Technologies That Are Changing Event Marketing"

by Event Marketer Magazine



-- EXHIBITOR 2008 Conference 'Buyer's Choice' Award
