SCATE Technologies Joins Dassault Systemes' CAA V5 Adopter Program.

SCATE to Port MVV Vision Analysis Software to CATIA V5

ORION, Mich. -- SCATE([R]) Technologies, Inc. announced today that it has joined the Dassault Systemes CAA V5 Adopter Program.

The agreement between SCATE([R]) and Dassault Systemes means that SCATE([R]) will now be able to offer SCATE's MVV([R]) (Multi-Vector Vision) software and services suite to CATIA([R]) V5 users. SCATE released MVV([R]) in January 2006 for the NX([R]) (previously Unigraphics([R])) CAD platform, and it has helped some corporations save well over $500 million by reducing design and development costs, and by creating cost avoidance opportunities. The agreement with Dassault Systemes will dramatically increase the market opportunities for MVV([R]) by making it available for the tremendously popular CATIA([R]) V5 platform.

Multi-Vector Vision is used by organizations that have analysis and governmental reporting requirements for vision and obscuration studies such as cockpit/instrument panel visibility, angular forward vision, 3D visual mass, and day/night visibility. MVV([R]) is revolutionary in that it "quantifies" and "ranks" various designs for their visual effectiveness in a completely virtual setting using SCATE's trademarked VMU([R]) (Visual Mass Unit) unit of measure. MVV([R]) performs studies on raw computer-aided design (CAD) data, thus enabling the user to catch vision and ergonomic design flaws before they reach engineering and prototype phases, or worseO the production phase.

"By becoming a CAA V5 Adopter, SCATE has gained access to the complete CATIA([R]) V5 development environment and all of the tools and support needed to ensure seamless integration with CATIA([R]) V5," said Steve Sadler, SCATE([R]) President and CEO. "While the NX([R]) market is substantial, the CATIA([R]) V5 market is far larger, and dramatically expands the potential customer base for MVV([R])," added Sadler.
