introduction of the HIVE Holodeck Playpen.
HIVE: Holographic Immersive Virtual Environments
Presented by Diane Troyer
Inventor
2. STATEMENT
Movies and TV have been the same for quite some time----
delivering images to flat screen surfaces.
Audiences want a new kind of entertainment – a more immersive
Experience -- allowing each person to be a participant.
We are reconfiguring entertainment on a grander scale.
Special processes like dimensional auto stereo images,
interactivity, and hemispherical screens, create an
Immersive space for celebration and enjoyment.
The eye sees images dimensionally in curved space.
MetaZtron Vision blends depth with vivid colored depth spatial images.
Saturated laser colors cover the full spectrum of visual light.
Realistic images. Natures deep purples and violets and honey mustards .
Lasers produce realistic images in curved space.
Arc lamps in digital cinema cannot produce the full color spectrum.

Canada granted Troyer a patent February 28, 2011
for Laser TV with reflective light valve and scanning lasers
4. WHAT DOES TROYER BRING TO THE EQUATION?
Patents and approved proof of concept prototypes for
MetaZtron Vision.
MetaZtron Vision is the linchpin for the HIVE:
Holographic Immersive Virtual Environments that
provide the base for a new network for Edutainment.
MetaZtron Vision is to the HIVE
what the Printing Press was to Publishing.

6. CAVE DREAM
MetaZ Tron Vision transforms Flat Screen Reality to
Dimensional Space reality as dramatic as when talkies replaced
silent film and color transformed black and white.
Networking, promotion, content creation transform.
Cross fertilization of disciplines creates a new paradigm.
Realistic immersive environments in real time– the holodeck.
Social networking is the global rage – structured with
savvy platforms. Facebook, You Tube, Twitter.
Chinese under 30 billionaires are taking multi-player
gaming to the next level. Asian Internet Cafes transform --
Needed: Portal space for participant to
Congregate, Create, Collaborate, Celebrate
7. STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIPS
Most important is creating the best MetaZ tron
Vision models from Pico to large dome screens. We
plan to introduce MZTV platforms globally.
We are now in the process of locating the right
strategic partners that bring savvy “know how”
experience to the enterprise.
We want to work with strategic partners that are in
for the long haul – with a global reach.
8. METAZ TRON VISION AMPLIFIES IMAGES
• In real time to dimensional space
• Auto stereo (without the need of glasses)
• Full spectrum infinite depth of focus
• Saturated film like broadband colors
• Scalability with image enhancement
• FDA approved: reflected scanned laser lines
• Reflected scanning does not harm eyes
• Lasers scanning lines create bright images
• Enough laser power: bright as a slide projector
• Bright as 80 ft. screen IMAX arc lamp film projector
9. MetaZtron Patent Situation
• Troyer was issued a Canadian patent: Feb 28, 2011
• Canadian patents verify/validate US patent 2001, 2005, and 2003. Also
India and Mexican patents.
• Troyer’s MetaZtron Laser Projector innovation and patents are endorsed
by International experts.
• MZTV: streamlined linchpin approach for mobile, suitcase, home,
industrial and big dome 3D theater applications.
• Kodak demonstrated a laser projector to industry leaders in late 2010.
Kodak is using the patented Troyer approach.
• Kodak’s justification is that they are not licensing projector but licensing
their optic train path.
• Kodak uses the DLP reflective light valve. The Troyer claims for US patent
2006 and Canadian patent cover all reflective light valves: LCoS, DLP,
MEMS, or any to be invented.
• The Troyer published white paper 2000 and SBIR 2005 discuss using two
channels for stereo. Kodak and HDI and any other company that uses two
stereo channels is writing around the Troyer patents.
10. Zuddites (Modern Luddites)
• Troyer and team held demonstrations of the patented
Metatron Laser Projector in California 2000 -2003
• IMAX dome (San Jose Tech Museum) projected boxing match
and DVD of Fifth Element
• The customers jumped up shouting. They had no idea that
amplification of the images without pixels was possible on an
IMAX dome– in real time.
• Metatron automatically adjusts to dome screen; Image depth
(front separates from background).
• Experts from Kodak, Disney, IMAX, Sony, etc. attended Troyer
Metatron private demonstrations.
• Zuddites (modern Luddites) stopped the Metatron delivery of
the 11 assembled projectors to clients (stole projectors –
never recovered).
• They attempted to stamp out Metatron progress and take
over technology. The Troyer patents saved the Technology.
11. LIPA
• LIPA (Laser Illuminated Projector Association) http://www.lipainfo.org/
• Non-profit consortium to promote digital cinema laser projection
• IMAX, Sony, Kodak, Nec, Disney, Barco, Christies are members of the
Technology.
• LIPA promotes the Kodak demonstration design as the prototype to show
proof of concept for lasers and reflective light valves projectors.
• Troyer has been issues 8 patents on laser projectors, 7 being on lasers and
reflective light valves, the lasers keeping the polarization to the screen.
• None of the above have patents for laser projector with lasers directed on
a reflective light valve (spatial modulator) with full color spectrum– 635
nm. red and above – keeping the polarization/ coherence (Laser inherent
beam quality) through out the optic system to the screen.
• Troyer receiving the Canadian patent February 28, 2011 makes
infringement not as feasible, in the fact the courts would automatically
show that there was no prior art and that the Troyer claims stand.
• Other infringements: Light Blue Optics, HDI LTD, AaXatech, Microvision
12. ESTIMATED WORTH
Licensing, Assignment, Strategic Partners
EVALUATORS ACCESS MZTV PATENTS AS “STRONG”
Demonstration models show ‘Proof of Concept’
If the business model is handled correctly and the patents are
carefully monitored for infringement, a great deal of income can
be received from strategic partner licensing and building new
Franchise companies and sub-companies.
NOTE: Industry is frustrated: there are no laser projectors on the
Market (Evans & Sutherland mothballed – was not bright and did
not have infinite focus). Many companies have placed hundreds
of millions into development of laser displays and have failed.
Thus, the Industry is waiting in anticipation
for auto dimensional HIVE laser imaging.
13. MANY COMPANIES ARE WORKING ON LASER PROJECTORS
(KODAK: demonstrating digital cinema Laser Projector)
• Kodak is stating that they will sell the stereo optic train design to clients.
• IMAX is now partners with Laser Light Engine group to flood reflective light
valve with laser light instead of arc lamp light. This is not an efficient use
of laser light and causes ghosting artifacts, so will not work.
• Sony has developed a laser module. Samsung, Mitsubishi, Toshiba and
many others are working on laser displays.
• Troyer patents: US, India, Mexico and Canada: full motion picture color
with lasers addressed to a reflective light valve. The laser images are
spatially modulated with Z factor depth and keep the collimation to the
screen for infinite depth of focus and dimensional images.
• MZTV (approved by global experts as the laser projector solution).
• MZTV has open architecture patents on the whole projector.
• We use reflective light valves that works best for us: DLP, LCOS, etc.
• Troyer 2006 patent and Canada covers all reflective light valves.
• MZTV is assembled for the application with best light valve device.
• HIVE ZELF platform applications are developed in open architecture
environments by chartered clients.
14. More On Kodak Using Troyer’s Patented Process
http://www.faqs.org/patents/app/20100007852
LASER ILLUMINATED MICRO-MIRROR PROJECTOR
www.kodak.com/go/laserprojection
DLP is a micro-mirror (reflective light valve).
The 2006 Troyer patent claims cover laser scanning and modulation by any/ all
reflective light valves (claims broadened from liquid crystal reflective light valve)
Kodak refers to the Troyer patents in at least 3 of their patents.
Kodak states they are not manufacturing or selling lasers projectors.
Kodak is selling optic path plans to other companies who wish to assemble lasers.
Kodak uses lasers, keeping the polarization and coherence for their 3D.
Kodak presents two channel stereo using the infinite focus attribute.
This is a described process in Troyer white papers including 2005 SBIR.
MetaZtron experts feel that auto dimensional (without glasses) is a better approach to
stereo– using the infinite sharp focus as described in the 2005 SBIR white paper.
Kodak Prototype model uses the claims from Troyer patents
• Lasers with reflective light valve; 635 nm red or above for full color spectrum mix.
• Infinite sharp depth of focus images retaining laser beam coherence, collimation
and polarization to screen to create full color dimensional (with depth) images.
• Other claims (patent claim study on request)
15. REFLECTIVE LIGHT VALVE (RLV)
• Troyer MZTV patents are for a laser projector with a reflective light valve.
• Troyer patents are for a full projector, not just a vendor part or an
application.
• Troyer patent granted in 2006 broadens the 2001 claims: Any reflective
light valve meaning DLP, MEMS, LCOS, or any other to be invented.
• The Sony, Kodak, and Silicon Light Machine (SLM) patents are for a
reflective light valve –not a full projector.
• All high end Digital Cinema projectors (approved to show Hollywood
studio movies) use a Reflective Light Valve (RLV).
• Kodak and IMAX are using the DLP mirror for their laser projectors.
• HDI uses the LCOS. Light Blue Optics uses a LCOS.
• Microvision uses a MEMS which modulates the image and reflects light.
MZTV DELIVERS TURNKEY (INTEGRATED DISPLAY SOLUTION) ----
ZELF— Zone Enhanced Location Fusion (Platform licences) .
16. LASER DISPLAY LICENSING HISTORY
MANY TAKE WRONG PATHS; FOLLOW IMPOSSIBLE DESIGNS
SILICON LIGHT MACHINE (SLM) GRATING LIGHT VALVE
Sony and Evans and Sutherland invested near a billion in the SLM.
Companies attempting to build laser projectors with the SLM light valve
Sony: Entertainment: $30M licensing; $400 million in developing prototypes
Evans & Sutherland: $10M Planetarium domes and Simulation
Rockwell Collins: (Simulation)- 2007-- $76 million –purchased simulation
from Evans & Sutherland (counted buildings and engineers)
SLM projectors mothballed by all including Sony, E&S and Rockwell. .
MANY DO NOT HAVE PATENTS FOR PROTECTION :
Kodak, IMAX (laser digital cinema): DLP RLV not patented
HDI (Home 3D): LCOS RLV not patented
Light Blue Optics (Mobile): LCOS RLV not patented
Microvision (Mobile): MEMS RLV questionable
Just with the digital cinema market, the licensing returns could be
immense, depending how the license platforms are set. (see past licensing)
Digital Cinema license history (3 companies): $30 million (2000)
DLP licensed to IMAX (Digital Projection), Barco, and Christies
17. PAST LICENSING HISTORY JUST FOR LIGHT VALVE
LIGHT VALVE: DLP (Texas Instrument) and Silicon Light Machine (SLM)
Licensee designs and assembles a projector around the licensed light valve
TEXAS INSTRUMENTS DLP LIGHT VALVE: received near one billion dollars in DLP licensing
rights since 2000: Pico, home, industrial, digital cinema, etc. Three companies paid $10
million each for licensing for digital cinema: Barco, Christies, IMAX (NEC/ Digital Projection).
REVIEW: SILICON LIGHT MACHINE (SLM) LIGHT VALVE (mothballed 2009)
Not optically efficient – not bright; Cannot adjust to curves in real time (no infinite focus)
Sony paid $30M for entertainment licensing. Evans & Sutherland (E & S) paid $10 M for the
SLM dome, simulation and planetarium rights. Rockwell Collins purchased simulation rights
from E&S. The E&S laser projector (SLM light valve) for $76M (counts buildings/ engineers)
TROYER PATENT LICENSES: Full projector (not just a vendor part). Thus most often the
client will license the assembled projector and turnkey platforms.
18. Some Licensing Negotiating Areas

21. Tech TV smackdown
Silicon Valley players vying for control of TV sets
Claire by Atkinson Sept. 4, 2010
http://www.nypost.com/p/news/business/tech_tv_smackdown_SWkYo8AIsQJ6MXxE5IC61N
Silicon Valley's biggest players are battling to bring the TV set
into the 21st century. This fall, tech companies, including Google,
Apple, Amazon and Sony, are laser-focused on breaking into the
living room, using advanced devices and services that marry the
television and the Web.
INSIGHT Display Daily – 11/ 23/2010 - Moving Toward a Ubiquitous Software
Platform research paper INSIGHT MEDIA .doc
:
Set top box wars (STB): Apple TV, Droid (Google), Microsoft
Gaming will be catalyst--- for best auto stereo immersive display and STB
Then the Kinect was introduced and the game plan is changed!
22. Laser TV: predict 2 billion a year
July 26, 2011: Robert Dwilinski, Ammono’s president and
founder, told IEEE Spectrum. “Laser projectors will probably oust
big, energy consuming and expensive LCD TVs. It is estimated
that the demand for laser TVs will reach up to two billion a year,”
adds Dwilinski
Digital Cinema: Lasers will replace arc lamps. Kodak described
their ground-up approach with many clear and obvious benefits,
which theater owners, as represented by Dave Castelli, agreed
were very appealing to them. Theaters are running their lamps
longer and dimmer and creating poor 3D experiences because
the costs are killing them. Castelli said one theater chain just
increased its operating budget for a 14-plex significantly - to
cover high lamp costs - even with the above shortcuts, costs are
high so reducing operating expense is a big deal for them.
23. MZTV SUITCASE AND PICO PROTOTYPES
Groups Infringing Prove the MZTV Patented Claims and Designs Work
• Light Blue Optics, Microvision, AaxaTech, etc.
• HDI LTD (Las Gatos): use Troyer patented process with two channel 3D.
• HDI engineer worked with Troyer’s group as engineer so knew process.
MZTV will be presented with auto dimensional 3D (without glasses).
• Light Blue Optics: Troyer’s patented designs and published 05 SBIR paper.
• Light Blue Optics raised $26 M in a week stating they discovered this
process. Then another $15 million (without patents on basic projector)
• Troyer uses a simpler more direct approach with her patented designs:
KISS: streamlined and less expensive.
• Example: Light Blue Optics raises money (same process as Troyer patent)
The Troyer patented approach is the answer to the basic premise design.
• Costs mapped out according to expert help & support/ assembly house.
• Strategic partnership with “in kind” support.
24. SUPPORT FROM TRW
• We have accomplished much, even with severe interference from
competitors who stole the first 11 projectors assembled for clients
and perpetuated other criminal acts to suppress the patented
innovation.
• Many companies have nothing to show after spending 100’s of
million; This is because they started from the wrong premise – the
wrong architecture—the wrong design.
• They do not have the luxury of having almost 20 years of R&D with
platform support from TRW in designing the laser projectors for the
room command and control war room walls.
25. EXPLANATION HOW TROYER UNDERSTANDS
LASER PROJECTION
Troyer is trained hands on multi-media designer and producer.
Troyer was hired to design studio and staging for Hollywood Palladium.
She wanted a realistic display for rear projected real time curved backsets.
(Full color, high resolution and contrast, adjust to curve, dimensional images).
Troyer scoured labs; Found no solutions; but GE Telaria had good colors.
Troyer discovered TRW laser projector used for war room walls.
Troyer tested with white board moved in image path (image always focused)
Troyer understood instantly: infinite focus missing link for “CAVE” realities.
War Room displays flat screens: TRW found the infinite focus a distraction.
Troyer representative: TRW projector to the Hollywood Studio theme parks.
TRW only laser projector that has been successfully launched:
Ran 24/7 for 3 years; 97% up time.
Over $500 million invested in R&D. Sold for $360,000 each.
26. STREAMLINED LASER DISPLAY APPROACH
TRW contract was over: projectors were mothballed right before Desert Storm.
(No room for laser battery backup 6 floors underground) SAC, MAC, NORAD.
Troyer purchased at auction at SAC base in Omaha the 8 laser projectors.
Troyer opened lab in Los Angeles; Hands on experience/ many upgrades
TRW supported with boxes of studies, R&D and drawings, engineering advice.
Studio demonstrations: Great feed back and suggestions from experts.
TRW laser projectors delivered laser beams directly out of the lens (not eye safe).
TRW design was not optically efficient. More than 40 optics in the optic train.
Upgrades made obvious the defects and limitations of TRW design.
Patent: 1994: solid state laser projector to replace gas lasers
Patent: 2001: Broad colors (Troyer had mixed red dyes for best whites)
Broadband and more light efficient: Modulation with reflective light valve.
The art before was to modulate with acoustic optic modulation (RF).
Troyer proved what experts said impossible (infinite focus with reflective light valve)
Troyer design streamlined lasers projectors (8 optics for better light efficiency).
Eye safe with reflected laser beam line scanning (instead of direct laser beams)
27. MetaZ*Kit, Suitcase, Engine
• MetaZ*Kit software adjusts for different applications.
• Different MZTV designs and laser power needed for signage (still based on Troyer patents)
• Sports Video Circular Scoreboard : Stacked and merged small Z*TV
• SUITCASE: larger mobile model for big screens and command & control on the ground.
Suitcase plugs into MetaZ*Kit, Lap top, study smart phone, etc.
• Front or rear projected; concave or convex pop up screens: 3 ft. to 12 ft.
• Glorified laser projector (We know of no competition in prototype -- none on market).
• SUITCASE: Vivid--Twice the color/ curved screens/dimensional images.
• SWAP: Small footprint, weight, little power ---but with Big image:
• Signage --smaller screens, Gamers, Industrial, smaller holographic images
• Smaller Z*TV for holodeck playpen platforms developed by gamers and ZEON’S.
• Gamers and on the ground disaster command and control and medical (4K resolution).
• The suitcase Z*TV is a big market and is a logical use of the Troyer patents.
DESIGN/PROTOTYPE/ MANUFACTURING VENDORS
• Third party? Bring the manufacturer to the table. Apple, Dell, Microsoft, others
• Prototype/ assembly/ strategic partners/ licenses
28. ENDORSEMENT BY MILITARY EXPERTS
• Laser Display experts in R&D in the Army and Air Force
• Need streamlined inexpensive solution for 3D in curved space.
• Command & Control on the ground with situation awareness.
• Immersive battle and training
• Real time simulation with realistic curved CAVE screens
• Ability to see real time satellite dimensional captured images
• Sturdy mobile suitcase for fast set up
• Military experts state that Troyer patented process
• Finally delivers streamlined low cost real time immersion
• Works with existing infrastructure
• HIVE: Long awaited solution for immersive platforms (CAVE).
• Cuts costs; creates a new game plan for Immersive training, command and
control walls and sturdy suitcase on the ground, sturdy handheld, etc.
• They have seen too many attempted failures: wrong designs.
29. Now Technologists Realize Lasers With Reflective Light
Valve Modulation Streamlines Displays
• DUAL USE: fast track -- work with gamers to design
platforms.
• Keep strong handle on the model designs, Apple style.
• R&D Wright Patterson and Troyer Team: Set up
Cooperative R&D agreement to develop C2 walls and
on the ground (command & control) and Immersive
training; transforming flat wall CAVE to the HIVE.
Note: Troyer has found that the Air Force R&D engineer
is the expert with dimensional imaging and laser displays.
She feels his guidance would be greatly beneficial in this
process.
30. INFINITE SHARPNESS (IF IT IS)
Adjusts to the projection
media in real time without the
need of algorithm manipulation
ZTV in real time Fig. 31: interior of a dome—ellipse
• Fig. 32: ZTV projects on water, steam, fog, etc.
•
Fig. 33: Images go through different scrims (always
In focus) creating A wonderful dimensional reality.
Also the image can be seen on each side of a scrim
or captured by camera for special effects
31. COMPONENT DESIGN ON TRACK
• MZTV streams video: Cinerama auto dimensional
• Small laser projector head
• MetaZ*Kit computer engine server/ evolved blue ray/ set top box.
• Many are working on boxes. chips, boards, servers, storage/image enhancements.
• Streamlined: we chose our off the shelf parts.
• Choose 2D to 3D best software and adjust for infinite focus (NVidia offers support).
• Streamline virtual labs with expert support to build the MZTV models.
• Cookie cutter and stacked parts (small or larger) same design and material.
• All MZTV models fall under this umbrella except the Pico (miniature world).
• Troyer patented process: through working with Symbol-- found new way to
approach the Pico that is a much brighter eye safe model.
• No one has approached the Pico this way -- far better dimensional image.
THIS HAS BEEN A BOOTSTRAPPED PROJECT
It is time to work with the best strategic partners and bring in the MZTV models.
It is time to create a ZELF Lab to test new HIVE platforms
– the Holodeck Playpen.
32. BE READY TO DELIVER THE BEST IN VOLUME
Missing Linchpin Display
Kinect, X BOX, Gaming devices, Smart Phone, --
• Set up bidding for best manufacturer with support.
• Troyer has tested and wants to implement another break through to
increase image quality for mobile- suitcase, etc.
• Volume prices need to be more favorable.
• Streamline implementation (Apple style).
TECH TV SHAKE UP
• Right design for application. MetaZ*Box is the computer/ sever/
• JVC LCOS might be perfect for models home/ gaming models with server.
• This is all about streamlining to be competitive in the world market.
• We need to be prepared for volume orders.

architecture to enhance and simplify the Intel design and make their display more
competitive. The Intel CEO decided the lasers were not mature at that point and dropped
the 100 million dollar display project. Many were waiting for the Intel display and Intel stock
fell. The world market is still waiting for such a display. Finally the lasers are mature.

Friends
I can send you a 52-slide PowerPoint demo of the game, which has links to pages with
more info, especially about the multidimensional aspects of the games.
I am eager to receive from you whatever you can send me, especially in directions
suggested by our recent phone conversation.
As for the Israel Museum show. The director of the Shrine of the Book and the guardian
of the Dead Sea Scrolls is Dr. Adolpho Roitman. The general director of the Israel
Museum is James Snyder, former head of the Museum of Modern Art (MOMA) in NYC,
who is very good about getting funding. Their Dome is designed by Fredrick Kiesler is
considered an architectural masterpiece. It is surrounded by water and sprinkled
continues, so sprinkling mist (as done, for example, in Frances Futuroscope) should be
straightforward. Roitman really wants a holographic projection over his dome.
David, I'll send you later info about Gregory who is raising the donations for projecting over the
Dome of the Rock.

Subject: Laser Projectors
Diane,
It was a pleasure talking to you yesterday. I am very happy to hear that the production of your
Laser Projector is progressing. I greatly appreciate your keeping me in the know.
The sooner you can go into production, the sooner I can lease your projectors. Then I can start
taking advantage of your projectors capabilities to solve some of my production problems, and
give our creative minds a new tool to work with to create new vistas.
On a recent remote production at SeaWorld in Orlando with Wheel of Fortune, a laser projector
would have been the perfect tool to use to project on two air balloons that we used on the set,
as well as onto the two fountains in the background. The solution we came up with was less
then ideal, and far more money then I wanted to spend. When dealing with the Art Department
and our technicians, there were many times I wished I had the laser technology available to me.
I look forward to hearing from you soon, with the good news that I can start renting your laser
projectors.
Best of Luck, Bob Sofia

• Yes, we do look at the whole technical scope.
• Yes, we are continuing to deploy d-cinema systems in conventional theatrical
venues.
• In answer to your last question, that's correct -- the d-cinema is what we want
to pursue for the laser projector at this time.
• Thanks and kind regards,
