Phoam is no longer
active. All patents and intellectual property have been sold. Thank
you.
Phoam Technologies is
an Intellectual Property company. We
invent and develop technologies, then sell and
license them throughout the world.
The team includes:
- MIT
Physicists — an Invention
Hall-of-Famer, Emmy-award winning composer and
world-class IP attorney who invented the
sonogram and high-definition radar — and
an Automation Hall-of-Famer who invented the
Programmable Logic Controller (PLC), the
floppy disk and drive, anti-lock brakes, and
the hand-held computer terminal;
- Multimedia Pioneers — a
film, video, and television producer and
director whose content was used in one of
Apple's first interactive prototypes —
and a computer scientist and VR expert who
worked with NASA, created the first film on
the Web, and standardized VRML for
MPEG-4.
- This team of inventors has well over 100 patents to their credit.
Currently, we have developed and
are selling a suite of digital
telecommunications, entertainment, and social media
technologies. These technologies are both
disruptive and counter-disruptive. In other
words, they generate whole new businesses, and
also help companies adapt and counter new
competitive threats.
Phoam's SDE technology creates an
additional data channel inside any
digital media codec without increasing the
file size. It provides an engine that can be
used for whatever you want. You can
transparently upgrade and enhance any type of
digital media or codec using Phoam's
proprietary patented technology, including
MP3, JPEG, MPEG video, H.264, GSM, CDMA, VOIP,
facsimile, GIF, CD audio, AAC, etc. This
novel technology embeds large amounts of data
while maintaining total compatibility with
ISO, ANSI, ITU, etc. standards. Anywhere data
is quantized or digitized there's an
opportunity to use SDE. Things get really
interesting when you can turn a basic codec
into an intelligent container format which is
dynamic and flexible, and adapts to new
enterprises.
SDE is fully backwards and forwards
compatible, and broadly applicable.
Business and industries such as merchandising,
advertising, up-sells, widgets, casual games,
wallpapers, ring-tones, metadata, mashups,
automation control, telematics, network
optimization, downloads, interactive music
videos, and audio and visual enhancements are
all made simple and easy with this
breakthrough technology. It integrates
seamlessly into several billion-dollar
industries, making ubiquity on all kinds of
connected digital consumer electronics and
media platforms a reasonable and achievable
goal. The applications of SDE are only
limited by your own imagination.
