World's first automated Blu-ray Disc Publishing System

Article Summary

February 7, 2006 Primera has announced what we believe to be the world's first automated burn and print device to support new high-capacity Blu-ray Disc recorders and media. Along with its reliable (we use the current model in our main office at Gizmag) built-in robotics and full-color direct-to-disc inkjet printing, the US$5995 Bravo XR-Blu incorporates Pioneer's new BDR-101A Blu-ray Disc/DVD Recorder. The initial release of the XR-Blu utilizes single-layer discs to store up to 25 gigabytes of data. An upgrade will be available shortly after launch that will allow dual-layer media, which stores up to 50 gigabytes of data per disc. Since up to 50 discs can be loaded into the XR-Blu at a time, the upgrade will offer a total native capacity of up to 2.5 terabytes of data that can be published in a single session, opening up new applications and solutions that until now were impossible due to storage space constraints. The XR-Blu will be exhibited at CeBIT in Germany from March 9-16, and will begin shipping in April.
