Merry Christmas and a happy and successful year 2005

The team of LuraTech GmbH and LuraTech, Inc. thanks all customers and partners for the successful year 2004! You have contributed to the fact that JPEG2000 became a firm size in the market. We owe you that our Management Buy Out proceeded successfully.

The switches for 2005 are posed: Our rapid international turnover growth - particularly with LuraDocument - shows that the trend to color scanning accelerates. Our turnover growth of more than 50% in Germany makes us very confident, too, especially in the economically crisis-ridden Germany of the year 2004!

We look forward to working together with you also in 2005!

We wish you and your families a pleasant and peaceful Christmas and all success and luck in the year 2005!

LuraWave, LuraDocument: New product structure from the beginning of 2005

Following repeated customers' requests, our product range starts into the new year 2005 after being re-sorted to achieve a better clarity and a higher recognition factor. Our wide range of compression products which follow open standards will be subdivided into only two product groups. LuraWave and LuraDocument are the brand-protected generic terms which you should memorize:

LuraWave

contains all products and image formats for photo-realistic images. Among those are certainly digital photos, medical images and also aerial- and satellite images. The sub-groups LWF und JP2 belong to this product group. LWF is the wavelet compression particularly developed by LuraTech, while JP2 indicates the products with our high-performance JPEG2000-conform implementation.

LuraDocument

is the generic term for document compression. Among those are the product groups LDF, JPM, Binarization, JBIG2 and PDF. LDF is LuraTech's document compression, which is presently replaced by JPM, the solution for JPEG2000/Part6. The PDF-group supplies everything for the production of highly compressed JPM-style PDF files. JBIG2 contains the products for the efficient black-and-white compression. Absolutely new in the document family LuraDocument are the specialized products for binarization which help you to optimize the recognition rates of your OCR processes.

You can have a look at the simplified structure already in the next days:
