SANTA CLARA, Calif., July 23, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- UniPixel, Inc. (UNXL), a provider of Performance Engineered Films™ to the touch screen and flexible electronics markets, announced today the completion of the transfer of manufacturing equipment for its Diamond Guard™ hard coat resin screen protection product from UniPixel's research laboratory in The Woodlands, Texas to its Colorado Springs, Colorado manufacturing facility.
The Diamond Guard technology has been transferred and is currently being installed in the Colorado Springs facility to be integrated with UniPixel's XTouch™ technology. If successfully integrated, the combined technologies are expected to permit UniPixel to offer its OEM (original equipment manufacturers) customers touch screen solutions that require fewer manufacturing steps and which are expected to provide enhanced yields at a lower cost, thereby expanding UniPixel's competitiveness in the touch screen market.
Mr. Jalil Shaikh, chief operating officer of UniPixel, said, "We are pleased to have this equipment transferred to Colorado Springs. This is an important step forward in our strategy to maximize the potential of our technologies. We now enter into a product development process where we will conduct tests to determine how we can most effectively overlay our Diamond Guard technology on top of our XTouch touch screen technology. Our goal is to develop technologies that deliver highly differentiated solutions with higher yields to OEMs in a more cost efficient manner. We are dedicated to becoming recognized throughout the industry as the innovative leader in the touch screen segment."
Diamond Guard provides shatterproof glass-like performance to consumer and industrial touch screens, in a resin-based application. Diamond Guard hard-coat resin technology delivers excellent scratch resistance and durability without compromising optical clarity. Diamond Guard is compatible with a wide variety of processing techniques that create a thin coating over the target base material increasing its surface performance up to eight hardness levels.
UniPixel's XTouch sensors support features such as narrow borders, curved touch surfaces and even edgeless touchscreens while achieving improved linearity, reliability and thinner sensor stacks. As an alternative to traditional touch sensors, XTouch provides the ability to turn unique touch-based concepts into functional designs at lower total system costs.

SANTA CLARA, Calif., July 21, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- UniPixel, Inc. (UNXL), a provider of Performance Engineered Films™ to the touch screen and flexible printed electronics markets, announced today the completion of the integration of the acquired Atmel XSense product technology into its own InTouch touch screen technology.

The Company believes XTouch could be a highly differentiated touch screen technology designed to deliver exceptional total performance and cost. The Company anticipates that XTouch will be especially well suited to address the segment of the market for larger screens, including notebooks, tablets and automotive touch screens.
Jeffrey A. Hawthorne, chief executive officer of UniPixel, commented, "This is an important milestone as we begin to aggressively ramp up our sales and marketing initiatives. We believe that XTouch is a leading-edge technology that will enable Tier 1 OEMs to produce devices with the attributes that individual and industrial consumers desire. We are now engaged in a growing number of evaluations with potential customers to qualify our products."
Mr. Hawthorne continued, "While we are in the early stages of actively marketing our products, we operate in large and growing markets that independent analysts currently estimate to be approximately $6 billion annually, and growing to approximately $9 billion by 2018.

SANTA CLARA, Calif., July 21, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- UniPixel, Inc. (UNXL), a provider of Performance Engineered Films™ to the touch screen and flexible printed electronics markets, announced today the completion of the integration of the acquired Atmel XSense product technology into its own InTouch touch screen technology. The combined technologies are branded as XTouch.

The Company believes XTouch could be a highly differentiated touch screen technology designed to deliver exceptional total performance and cost. The Company anticipates that XTouch will be especially well suited to address the segment of the market for larger screens, including notebooks, tablets and automotive touch screens.
Jeffrey A. Hawthorne, chief executive officer of UniPixel, commented, "This is an important milestone as we begin to aggressively ramp up our sales and marketing initiatives. We believe that XTouch is a leading-edge technology that will enable Tier 1 OEMs to produce devices with the attributes that individual and industrial consumers desire. We are now engaged in a growing number of evaluations with potential customers to qualify our products."
Mr. Hawthorne continued, "While we are in the early stages of actively marketing our products, we operate in large and growing markets that independent analysts currently estimate to be approximately $6 billion annually, and growing to approximately $9 billion by 2018. We look forward to firmly establishing UniPixel as a provider of highly differentiated touch screen technologies in the coming years."

We expect operating expenses to total less than $4 million per quarter by the fourth quarter and to exit the year with gross margins greater than 20%. We anticipate further gross margin improvements in the first half of 2016, leading to profitability for the full year."
XSense Update As announced in late April, UniPixel acquired the assets and operations of Atmel Corporation's XSense touch sensors group. XSense's roll-to-roll, photolithographic manufacturing process of touch sensors has several performance advantages over other touch sensor technologies.
One advantage is superior touch sensor mesh capability. The XSense photolithographic manufacturing process achieves less than four-micron mesh grid lines and allows unique patented mesh pattern designs other than the traditional diamond pattern. The XSense technology virtually eliminates pattern visibility and moiré issues on super-high resolution displays. XSense's unique sensor design also improves touch performance that allows the use of a passive stylus and eliminates Ghost Touch artifacts on less than 0.4 millimeter thick cover glass. The result is a competitive performance advantage over other metal mesh technology.
Another advantage of XSense technology is the signal line routing and pitch between signal lines. This allows for device bezel width less than 2 millimeters.
The performance advantages of XSense allow UniPixel to immediately address the mobile phone market and the entire tablet market, which represent the largest segments of the touch market.
"Although Atmel was successful in marketing XSense's technology advantages, we believe that high manufacturing costs related to catalytic coated film supplied by a third party prevented competitive pricing," noted Hawthorne. "We are currently transferring the existing third party catalytic coated film process to the XSense Colorado Springs facility to bring the supplier's catalytic coating film production process in-house. We expect to complete this modification within six months, and for it to significantly lower production costs and increase manufacturing capacity by the fourth quarter. The current manufacturing capacity at the Colorado Springs XSense facility is capable of supporting forecasted production requirements through early 2016.
"We will then work to further lower the production costs of XSense through the application and integration of UniPixel's existing manufacturing and material science technology, leveraging our development work and investment over the past few years. This includes electroless plating process improvements and changes to the catalytic film coating, both of which are expected to increase throughput and overall factory capacity."
UniPixel also plans to apply its Diamond Guard hard coat technology to the XSense manufacturing process, which is expected to reduce materials costs by decreasing the need for protective film liners in the manufacturing and shipping process.
Diamond Guard Update UniPixel continues to advance towards commercialization of its Diamond Guard hard-coat resin solutions. The company is working with two film coating companies to market the coated film. As a PET film coating solution, Diamond Guard can be applied to numerous types of flat surfaces, while three-dimensional surfaces, such as mobile phone cases, lenses and key pads, can be coated using a spray process.
