Abacus Group has appointed Graham Grover, Managing Director of Trident Microsystems, as an Executive Director to its Board.
A panel of examiners, including senior executives of smaller and large companies, engineers, academics and medical professionals, evaluated all applications based on opportunity created by the innovation, why the new product is innovative and results achieved.
For 19 years, CQIA has recognised innovation, using the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award for Performance Excellence criteria to advance incentive programs that improve quality, performance excellence and marketplace competitiveness.
No Connecticut organisation has ever won the national Baldrige Award, named after former Secretary of Commerce, Malcolm Baldrige, once a Connecticut CEO.
Douglas McPheters, President of HoloTouch, observed: "this award is an important recognition of the importance of our innovative technology".
"Receiving one of this year's Gold CQIA Prizes will continue to motivate us as we grow our business and expand our franchise".
McPheters also pointed out that the company's generic evaluation kit, BeamOne, has been purchased by a number of leading OEMs in order to familiarize their engineers, marketing personnel and potential customers with the flexibility of HoloTouch and the relative ease of integrating it into their products.
BeamOne projects 1inch square floating holographic images of its 'keys' several inches in front of the hardware.
A standard PC sees BeamOne as a keyboard.
This device is programmable and comes with all necessary software and the infrared sensors needed to detect an operator's interaction with its floating holographic images as well as free support.
