Moser Baer's patented technology approved by the Blu-ray Disc Association

Moser Baer India Ltd has announced that the Company's in-house developed and patented technology has been considered as one of the four standard media to be included in the Blu-ray disc specifications by the Blu-ray Disc Association in the recently concluded meeting in Newport Beach, California, USA. The Company played a very vital role in developing the next generation optical media (Blu-ray disc) as a contributing member to the world body. The company is now amongst a select few like Mitsubishi Kagaku Media Co Ltd, Fuji Photo Film Co Ltd, and Taiyo Yuden of Japan to have its technology approved by the prestigious Blu-ray Disc Association.

According to Ratul Puri, Executive Director, of the Company, "The development is part of our strategy to transform Moser Baer into a technology developer and innovator from a technology recipient."

Having already established a first mover advantage in HD DVD-R format, the company has now extended its technology leadership position in the Blu-ray media as well. The Company’s innovative use of a special disc structure using common materials will ensure that this will become a very cost effective solution for the industry.

This is expected to give the company a significant competitive edge in this next generation format race. The Company’s pioneering work in the Low-to-High (L2H) recording technology for Blu-ray will help the company to further enhance its global leadership position. "In L2H format, other companies are working on the dye-based material while Moser Baer has adopted a new innovative approach based on inorganic phase change material with its own patented technology," said Mr. Giriraj Nyati, VP, Engineering & Technology, Moser Baer India.
