New York, NY and Tokyo, Japan, December 4, 2023 – Pixie Dust Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: PXDT) (the “Company”), a Japanese technology company focused on commercializing innovative products and materials utilizing proprietary wave technology, today announced that it will exhibit at the Eureka Park Japan Pavilion at CES 2024, which will be held in Las Vegas, USA from January 9 to 12, 2024.
In addition to attending CES 2024, Pixie’s transparent sound-absorbing panel iwasemi™ RC-α will be receiving the coveted Innovation Award, which is given to products that are recognized as leaders in the “Home Appliances” category.
iwasemi™ RC-α, which uses acoustic metamaterial technology, is a transparent sound absorbing material that can be attached to glass. In addition to a rectangular shape that allows various patterns to be created like tiles, it is equipped with a fluctuating process to protect privacy in the room. By using plant-derived bioplastic as the material, the Company has reduced its environmental impact and increased transparency. iwasemi™ RC-α blends into any space, creating a quiet environment that allows for conversation.
