Nutaq Innovation Continues 3 Year Relationship with $250,000 Ongoing Contract with Sofie Biosciences

QUEBEC CITY, QUEBEC--(Marketwired - Nov. 10, 2014) -

Highlights:

• Proven "prototyping to deployment" model leads to volume production
• 40% system cost reduction realized through hardware optimization
• Rapid prototyping environment yields dramatic time to market acceleration

Nutaq Innovation Inc. is proud to announce that it has received a repeat purchase order of $250,000 from Sofie Biosciences to deliver PicoDigitizers as part of their G4 PET/X-ray and G8 PET CT.

This order is an evolution of the relationship between Nutaq and Sofie. Nutaq's multichannel digitizing product, which captures and processes the signals from multiple sensors, was first sold as a development system and is now being used as a key component of Sofie's product line for small animal imaging.

"Our solutions allow medical imaging clients to rapidly transition from development to deployment of flexible, modular FPGA-based multi-channel systems, enabling our goal of helping our customers cost effectively transition using the same hardware," said Francis Letourneau, Vice President of Sales, Nutaq Innovation. "This system dramatically reduces the development cycle with its model-based design approach, while simultaneously decreasing the system costs compared to earlier generations."
