LOS ANGELES and HONG KONG, Feb. 18, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Artificial Life, Inc. (OTC BB:ALIF.OB - News) (http://www.artificial-life.com) today launched the official website for MoPA-TV(tm), the company's innovative cross-platform technology, at http://www.mopa-tv.com. Visitors to http://www.mopa-tv.com can learn more about the MoPA-TV application. Starting with a simple and clear explanation, http://www.mopa-tv.com gives a comprehensive introduction to MoPA-TV and shows samples of programs that have already aired in many countries worldwide. Samples are also given of different artwork and illustration styles that can be incorporated into the MoPA-TV programs demonstrating how highly flexible the system is in adapting to different program formats. Production requirements, a system flow chart and technical references are also shown.
MoPA-TV stands for ``Mobile Participation Television'' and is a format that allows TV viewers to appear in a live TV show as 3D avatars, and to participate and interact with the show in real time by using text messaging on their mobile phones. It can be implemented as a part of an existing show or can be a whole show of its own. The technology won the Best Cross Platform Award at the MIPCOM Mobile and Internet Screening 2008, and was also recognized by the GSMA Asia Mobile Awards 2008 and the Mobile Excellence Awards 2008.
``We have been asked by many potential customers to launch a special website for our MoPA-TV system to explain the functionality and to show some video samples that cannot well be presented in brochures. MoPA-TV is a great innovative technology and TV format that we would like to share with experts in the mobile and TV industry as well as with the general public. We hope that http://www.mopa-tv.com will effectively introduce this new entertainment frontier and will convince and attract many new clients,'' said Eberhard Schoneburg, CEO of Artificial Life, Inc.
