ANGLE () said its 33 per cent-held portfolio company Geomerics has developed new products for mobile devices and for Nintendo's new Wii U console and is strenghtening its sales pipeline.
ANGLE operates as a specialist medical technology company with products in cancer diagnostics and fetal health, and it also owns a specialist technology consultancy.
Geomerics, which specialises in computer games middleware, presented at a recent game developer conference in San Francisco, showcasing improvements in its Enlighten offering, which now supports a wide range of mobile devices, including the iOS-based iPad and iPhone, Android devices and PlayStation Vita.
Enlighten allows for games such as Battlefield 3 to display realistic light effects in real time.
Geomerics also announced its new product capability for Nintendo's new Wii U console, the successor to the Wii, adding to its capability on the PC, PS3 and Xbox360.
Since the end of the conference on March 9, Geomerics has been notified of four new sales for major new games, three of which are to new customers, and its pipeline of prospective customers is steadily increasing, ANGLE told investors.
There has been further market recognition for Geomerics' Enlighten with Battlefield 3 receiving the award as best game of the year 2011 from the British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA).
Battlefield 3 is the fastest-selling Electronic Arts game ever, selling more than 5 million units in its first week of release.
According to ANGLE, the reviews of Battlefield 3 have frequently singled out the lighting. For example, The Guardian reported "Visually Battlefield 3 is a marvel of beautiful lighting effects", and GameSpy in its review said "Once they see the light - they'll understand what a special game Battlefield 3 is".
Geomerics chief executive Gary Lewis said: "The BAFTA award for Battlefield 3 is an excellent further endorsement of the success of the game. We are pleased with ongoing adoption of the Enlighten technology in major new games. 2012 looks like being a great year for us and the expansion into mobile computing offers substantial growth potential for the future."
