I posted two links about this to the LUG in March, the company's site is

http://www.imagek.com/

with more information on a 3rd party site at:

http://www.epicentre.co.uk/reports/imagek.html

However when I had contact with the company in March, their VP of
marketing said:

"We will be scheduling demonstrations this spring.   We will keep you
informed of the dates and locations of the demonstrations and will provide
sample imagery to those whoe cannot attend.   The photographs are indeed
of a mechanical system without the electronics in place."

So the pictures are of a non-working mock up, and so far the
demonstrations they promised for the "spring", haven't happened. It was
supposed to be *shipping* this summer. Doesn't seem that likely now.
