VIRTOOLS™ Releases the Virtools Behavioral Server 1.0.

Paris, November 15, 2001 - VIRTOOLS™, market leader in the world of interactive 3D development solutions, announced today the release of the Virtools™ Behavioral Server 1.0., radically expanding existing capabilities to provide behavior-enriched interactive user experiences on the web.

The Virtools™ Behavioral Server bring truly interactive 3D applications to the Web, for exceptional 3D games, e-learning, e-commerce product previews, or architectural walkthroughs. With complex interactivity and cutting-edge graphics, content published with the Virtools Behavioral Server is equal in quality to the best titles found in today's latest generation gaming consoles. The Virtools™ Behavioral Server is a natural addition to the Virtool's development platform Virtools™ Dev 2.0, and the first server solution to add an interactive third dimension to the Internet.

The Virtools Behavioral Server dynamically sends or 'serves' content via the Internet in response to the user's actions. The architecture of a Virtools Server allows it to adapt the 3D content - in real time and according to choices made by the user - in order to deliver a top notch game-like experience. Following the classic client/server structure, a Virtools Server is able to provide adaptive 3D applications by drawing from and adding to information systems that a company already has in place.

The ability to send content progressively to a user - in a way similar to streaming video on the web - and according to user interaction, makes the Virtools Behavioral Sever a powerful customization tool. Virtools' proven development tools and solutions reduce costs, development and deployment time, and thus lower the risks inherent in high level IT projects.
