U-Tech Plan Blue Laser Discs
U-Tech will be making HD DVD and Blu-ray discs, with volume production scheduled for the first half of 2006.
U-Tech cooperates with the Opto-Electronics & Systems Laboratories under the government-sponsored Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI) in developing HD-DVD pre-recording technology and has acquired related technology from the US, the company indicated. For the Blu-ray format, U-Tech will be technologically supported by its parent company Ritek, Taiwan’s second largest maker of blank optical discs, U-Tech noted.
It’s good to know we’ll actually be able to buy the things once drives come out!
