Plug-in Brings True Multi-Touch Interactivity to Popular Geophysical Software
NEW YORK, 2012-06-03 09:00 CEST (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
Perceptive Pixel, the leading provider of advanced user interface solutions,
today announced the general availability of its exciting new oil and gas
software at EAGE 2012, the largest and most comprehensive geoscience event in
the world. Perceptive Pixel's PetroTouch plug-in for Schlumberger's Petrel, the
industry-leading seismic interpretation software, is offered to Petrel users
worldwide via Schlumberger's Ocean store, and provides the geoscientific
community with greater ease-of-use and improved productivity as they search for
new oil & gas reserves. The plug-in specifically targets two workflows within
Petrel: seismic interpretation and well correlation, and supports intuitive
gestures and multi-touch with active stylus.
In the conventional Petrel user interface, some workflow steps require several
mouse and keyboard interactions to complete. Now with PetroTouch, these steps
are simplified in many ways. For example, you are able to interact with the 3D
camera by using simple and familiar pan, zoom, rotate, and double-tap gestures
directly on screen. The PetroTouch plug-in replaces many of these sequences
with single gestures and context-sensitive slide-in menus that put common
commands and actions at users' fingertips, thereby increasing user focus,
boosting productivity, and mitigating repetitive strain injuries.
The PetroTouch plug-in is sold as a bundle with Perceptive Pixel's 27'
projected capacitive (pro-cap) multi-touch desktop display or is available
separately to existing display users. The Perceptive Pixel 27'multi-touch
display detects an unlimited number of touch points and is paired with the
company's active stylus for simultaneous pen and touch interactivity.
Bob Pette, COO at Perceptive Pixel adds: 'We are excited to be working with
Schlumberger to bring multi-touch and simultaneous stylus interactivity to
Petrel users worldwide. Day in and day out, Petrel users analyze and interpret
extremely large seismic data sets. The multi-touch and active stylus
functionality available in PetroTouch provides both speed and accuracy for a
more natural, intuitive and productive experience performing many of the
scientific workflows in Petrel.'
PetroTouch will be available for demonstration in Schlumberger's Ocean booth (#
640) at EAGE 2012. To schedule a demonstration at the event, please contact
Diane Carlson at 212.691.2210, ext. 335, or dcarlson@perceptivepixel.com. To
