EveryScape Featured Today in Intel CEO’s CES Keynote

LAS VEGAS, Jan. 7 /PRNewswire/ — Today, Intel Corporation CEO Paul Otellini featured EveryScape.com’s “The Real World Online” in his opening-day keynote at the International Consumer Electronics Show. The keynote described how the Internet will continue transforming the consumer electronics and entertainment industries and how its evolution will create business opportunities for those who embrace it.

Otellini said that the personal Internet of tomorrow will “serve you — delivering the information you want, when you want it, how you want, wherever you are.” He demonstrated several future Internet computing applications and said they will “make the world a smaller place.” Using the concept of a future mobile Internet device loaded with GPS technology, Otellini used EveryScape’s visual and interactive local search platform to take a virtual stroll around a Beijing hotel, and looked for familiar landmarks — just as if he were right there on the street. Using the application’s augmented reality technology, he was able to identify leaseholders for each building along the street and found Intel’s office without entering a specific address.

Last fall, The Real World Online debuted at http://www.everyscape.com/ with the first online experience to let people explore a destination’s interiors and exteriors by walking down streets and going inside local buildings and landmarks. Bridging the gap between the physical world and the virtual one, EveryScape has created a visual and interactive platform for local search. By replicating the real-world experience, EveryScape lets people visually explore any destination before choosing to see or read more.

“We share Intel’s vision for a ‘personal Internet.’ Discovering a location is an experience that unifies and transcends maps, reviews, videos and photos,” said Jim Schoonmaker, president and CEO of EveryScape. “We are honored to be part of this important keynote to show how the Internet is evolving. We believe that the online experience is becoming a canvas — a new contextual framework that merges the on- and off-line worlds, letting people shape their own experiences and add their own color.”

Working with Intel, EveryScape traveled to Beijing to “scape” the key areas for the CES keynote by capturing 2D photos. EveryScape then incorporated these images into its proprietary platform that enhances local visual search with one-click access to photos, video, and additional destination information from websites like Yelp, Flickr, YouTube, Wikipedia and Yahoo! Local. To see the area from Otellini’s keynote, go to http://www.everyscape.com/beijing-beijing.cn.aspx.

Today, The Real World Online includes major metropolitan areas such as Miami, Boston and New York, as well as smaller surrounding towns including Aspen, Colorado and Lexington, Massachusetts. New locations are currently being added online. To see a short video demonstrating EveryScape’s capabilities, visit http://www.metacafe.com/watch/888440/everyscape_launch_video/.
