3426.0. "DEC Photo Library ?" by ATHINA::GABI (Gabi Traubitch - DEC Hellas Prod. Mktg. & Tech. Cons.) Wed Oct 05 1994 09:46

Anyone have heard about a product called "DEC Photo Library", developed by DEC
in UK ?

To product is designed to take images from a variety of sources for archieving
 and retrieval. It supports fractal image compression using a special card on
a PC

The system uses DEC Alpha AXP server with Windows and Mac clients.

Is it possible for a customer to order it ? How ?

Any idea about SPD ? Prices ?

Thanks,

3426.1Solution from a partnerEEMELI::SIRENWed Oct 05 1994 11:307
    I haven't heard about the product in UK, but there is a product from
    our partner in Finland meant for press photo service providers. I have
    written their address and phone number somewhere else in this
    conference. The name of the company is Acta Systems.

3426.2It is coming to the U.S.NYOSS1::GRUPSMITHEd GrupsmithWed Oct 05 1994 11:4612
    
    
    We are showing this product as a custom solution in the U.S.. Bob
    Cohen, who is in newspaper solution marketing, is working on bringing
    it to the US.  Geoff Adams, who works for SI (nee DC) has been demoing
    it around.
    
    Both these folks should be able to help.
    
    By the way----it is a pretty neat solution

3426.3It's called Picture LibraryTRUCKS::BURYWed Oct 05 1994 16:447
	It's called Picture Library and has been developed by colleagues
	of mine in Solent. Contact Mark Payne(@SBP DTN 782 2207) for business 
	details and/or Nigel Burton (@SBP DTN 782 2252) for technical/
	architecture information. Currently the client is only on PCs tho'
	a MAC client is also in the pipeline. It uses the TRIP CBR engine
	for searching and all in all it's got a pretty good front-end.
