In all fairness, Tony, while what you say is true, the original challenge
was to name a 3D company from the '50s boom time that is still in
business today, not to find some new company trying to make it in
3D.  Image Tech is certainly a good example of the latter, though, as
they seem to be avoiding the "gimmicky" angle that the purveyors of
Pulfrich glasses in airline magazine ads deliberately play on.
