Thanks, Dev ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SIMGRAPHICS ENGINEERING CORP. SimGraphics Engineering Corp. (S Pasadena, CA), is a leading developer of real-time, 3D animation and virtual reality/visual simulation software and systems. SimGraphics is the developer of the award winning VActor(TM) Animation Creation System. This performance animation system allows actors, wearing special input devices for their head, face, and body, to control the corresponding features of computer generated characters or objects (virtual actors or VActors) in real-time. The VActor System includes two products: VActor Performer, a hardware/software system which provides the equipment required to produce VActors for live performances, and VActor Producer, which will include the more sophisticated capabilities required to use VActors for creating editable animation for film, TV, video, and multimedia. VActor Performer is distributed to entertainment installations such as theme parks, stadiums, and museums by Iwerks Entertainment of Burbank, California, one of the leading manufacturers of specialty film products. SimGraphics also maintains a group that provides services for VActor animation, 3D graphics system software development, and custom application development. The company has created VActors for Nintendo (trade shows, live TV interviews, laserdiscs, mall tours), The Disney Channel (pilot TV show), Interplay Productions (CD-ROM), Ricoh (trade show in Japan), Fujisankei Television (touring exhibition), Hewlett- Packard (corporate video), and NHK (high-defini-tion television commercial). Companies for whom SimGraphics has completed major software and simulation development projects include IBM, Hewlett-Packard, 3DO, Prodigy, David Sarnoff Research Labs, Ford, Northrop, Texas Instruments and the National Computer Graphics Association. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SOFTWARE ENGINEER We are looking for a motivated team player who has the flexibility to work on a variety of projects.
