CYBERWARE 3D TECHNOLOGY CUTS LARGE PROJECTS DOWN TO SIZE

MONTEREY, CA - December 17, 1993 - From dinosaurs so real they seem ready
to roar, to models of sedans bursting through billboards, Cyberware helps
shape the way we see the world.
Kreysler and Associates in Petaluma, CA, uses Cyberware's unique 3D
scanning system to manufacture custom molded architectural products,
including colossal models found in museums and amusement parks around the
world.

The Cyberware rapid color scanner enables a computer to record the shape of
an object, whether a hand, foot or dinosaur model, in a scanned format
within seconds. The scanner reads 15,0()() three dimensional points per
second resulting in an image with a resolution as fine as 0.5 mm. The
scanned object produces a geometric model which can be manipulated in many
ways within a software application.

The 3D data can then be used to control automated milling machines to carve
out a perfect model, or smaller or larger version, of the original
object.

Kreysler recently worked with the Larson Company in Arizona to create life
size models c dinosaurs for a museum exhibition at the Fernbank Museum in
Atlanta, GA. Albertosaur, Talaraurus, Erythrosuchus and Hadrosaurus models
were scanned with Cyberware digitizers and life size versions of the
monstrous creatures emerged, one towering nearly 25 feet high.

"The paleontologists were very picky about accuracy," says William
Kreysler, president of Kreysler and Associates. "With Cyberware, we know
we are able to duplicate a model's features more accurately than by
traditional manual methods."

"Cyberware equipment helped us to open up this marketplace; now we can get
jobs that we otherwise could not have competed for," adds Kreysler.

Face to Face is another company that relies on Cyberware to produce 3D
replicas of a variety of people and objects. Their specialized process
begins with a Cyberware scan, 2D photographs, vacuuming techniques, plus
their own distortion technology. A photograph is laid over a milled model
for absolutely real replicas of the original object.

" Within 10 to 20 seconds we can scan a person with the Cyberware scanner
and have a perfect replica on our computer system," says Geoff Davidson,
vice president of technology at Face to Face in Los Angeles. "Sometimes
people think our models are so real they actually come up and talk to
them," says Davidson.

Among other projects, Face to Face produces billboards, some with mounted
3D car models and bus shelter advertisements. Past clients include General
Motors, Coca-Cola and Phillip Morris.

Davidson says that, for his company, there really isn't any other
alternative to using Cyberware equipment. "Before we had Cyberware, we did
everything by a complicated sculptural procedure that was very tedious,
time-consuming and not nearly as accurate. Cyberware gives us something
that is as near to a 3D snapshot as you can get."

Davidson says he finds Cyberware data simple and compatible to work with,
and says that the equipment is basically self-explanatory. "It is easy to
work with, and you can scan and convert virtually anything," he says. "It
all starts here."

The software also allows users to control the model for use with popular 3D
applications such as CAD programs.

Cyberware manufactures a variety of hardware and software products for
rapid 3D color scanning. These products are used by doctors, engineers,
researchers, manufacturers, artists and film makers around the world.
