Global Visual Display Technology Provider Integrates eBeam Solutions to Build Comprehensive Interactive Classrooms in a Single Package

SAN CARLOS, California, August 4, 2010 - Luidia, Inc., the award-winning developer of eBeam portable interactive
whiteboards and display solutions (www.luidia.com), today announced
that ViewSonic(R) (www.viewsonic.com) Corp., a leading global provider
of computing, consumer electronics and communications solutions, will now
sell eBeam Edge for Education units as part of bundled packages with
ViewSonic projectors (www.viewsonic.com/products/projectors). The
partnership will provide the educational community various packages to
enhance interactivity in the classroom to better engage students.

The eBeam Edge (
www.luidia.com/products/ebeam-edge-for-education-page.html) is the
smallest, lightest interactive solution on the market, weighing less than
four ounces and measuring less than eight inches long. Unlike permanent fixed
interactive whiteboards, eBeam Edge transforms existing whiteboards and
writing surfaces into interactive whiteboards with no installation costs. It
works with any standard computers and projectors. ViewSonic develops, markets
and supports a broad range of innovative products, including LCD TVs,
computers, LCD monitors, projectors, digital photo frames, digital signage
displays and digital media players.

The partnership will offer bundled packages that enable educators to
simply present, annotate and interact with projected content, while capturing
the results, which can be shared over the Internet. The packages will be sold
through ViewSonic.com and a nationwide network of resellers.

"ViewSonic has been dedicated to providing solutions for the Educational
Projector Market for more than two decades," said Erik Willey, Director of
Projector Product Marketing for ViewSonic. "We chose to partner with Luidia
for our interactive solutions because its products are versatile, easy to use
and work with existing traditional whiteboards. As a result, we are able to
give teachers portable and affordable solutions, requiring almost no time to
transform traditional boards to interactive boards."

"Luidia provides a way for partners such as ViewSonic to gain competitive
advantage in the flourishing interactive market," said Luidia Senior Vice
President of Worldwide Sales and Business Development Roy Erez. "This
blending of ViewSonic and Luidia gives educators the ability to use one
vendor to outfit classrooms with all they need to engage 21st century
students by using cutting edge technology."
