SizzlPix!™ High Definition Photography™
From iPhone 4S 8mpx sensor
to the wall over 16 x 20"

Friday, October 14th, 2011

At the live event introducing the new iPhone 4S, Phil Schiller emphasized its new 8-megapixel backside illuminated image sensor, which provides 3264 pixel images, up from the 5-megapixel camera of the iPhone 4. “You can print out an 8 x10 that’s pixel-perfect, gorgeous,” Apple’s senior vice president of Worldwide Product Marketing proudly announced.

From these images, we produce SizzlPix! High-Definition display, not 8 x10, but 4-times the size, 16 x 20″, with no sacrifice in resolution, luminance, color, contrast … all the qualities that make SizzlPix! unique.

Mark Stepovich’s sparkling 24″ ice-climbing SizzlPix! were made from the 4MPX sensor in a 5-year old pocket camera.

Phil’s announcement is at 62:50 in the Apple video of the event. With your new iPhone you have with you, 100% of the time, and anywhere you go, a camera that produces huge dramatic SizzlPix!

“My friend Doug and I took these pictures of each other on a recent ice climbing expedition in Lee Vining Canyon, California.

We’re not pro photographers, but these SizzlPix! made from our own digital pictures are a knockout in my dental office. The bigger one is 35-inches wide, displayed where everyone sees it, over our reception desk.

I practice in Silicon Valley where many passing through our offices tend to be insiders in high technology, yet it’s remarkable how many say “wow!” and want to know where I got these pictures and how they’re made so vibrant and colorful.”

Baylor College Of Medicine SizzlPix! gallery

Thursday, September 22nd, 2011

Visitors to the Parkinson Disease and Movement Disorders Clinic at Baylor College of Medicine now see Texas’ first public display of a startling new technology in fine-art photography for homes and offices has opened at . A dramatic advance over conventional paper or canvas prints, SizzlPix seem to glow, almost jumping off the wall. The effect can not be reproduced on the web nor in an email. One really has to see them in person.

The clinic has created a gallery extending through the waiting and examination rooms featuring SizzlPix! High Definition Photography by Robert Flatt. Flatt is also adjunct professor at the Rice’s Jesse H. Jones Graduate School of Management, teaching Leading Change in Operations.

His photography began after his diagnosis with Parkinson’s disease. As a patient of the PDMDC, Robert hopes his work will create an interesting, natural and pleasing setting for others dealing with neurological illnesses. His work also speaks of the healing nature of art and how his diagnosis was the start of a new career as an artist.

Some of his best pictures were taken in his front yard on Albans Street, where he practiced his craft for days on end and developed an eye for interesting subjects and unique detail. Many of his nature photographs were made in the Houston area, specifically his own neighborhood, Southampton, although his practiced art has taken him to Africa, Antarctica, and Japan.

It was −20°centigrade in Hokkaido, Japan when Robert took his photo, Swans, Fog, and Sunshine.

With outstanding guidance from instructors at the Susanne M. Glasscock School of Continuing Studies, he was able to transition out of a distinguished scientific engineering career and into a life as a burgeoning artist. 45 of his photographs, including 26 spectacular SizzlPix, in sizes from 20×30 to 48×36-inches are now in the gallery on the 18th floor of Smith Tower, 6550 Fannin Street.

According to Don Sherman, head of the Silicon Valley company, the new SizzlPix High Definition Photography technology eliminates toxic chemicals used in developing, the need for glass or a frame, and produces luminous colors and an illusion of depth not found in conventional photographs.

It also produces pictures that are water-, stain- and fade-proof, and scratch- and UV -resistant, making them safe to use in bathrooms and sunlit rooms.

Robert Flatt adds, “Unlike paper or canvas photos, SizzlPix can be kept sterile with a simple disinfectant spray and wipe, making them uniquely suitable for medical and other scientific environments.” At the Baylor clinic they are displayed in waiting areas, hallways, conference rooms, offices and examination rooms.

Another benefit is that the photographer isn’t limited by predetermined sizes, Sherman says. Heights and widths can range from 18 inches up to 5 feet.

“They’re a dramatic advance over conventional paper or canvas prints.” But, he adds, “How do you describe high-definition photographs? You have to see them in person.”

Professional photographers aren’t the only ones who can turn their photos into high-definition pictures. Anyone can have his or her own photos processed using the SizzlPix! process.
Prices range from $199 to $1,499 and include free shipping and a money-back guarantee.
They’re not for the shy and retiring, though, Sherman cautions with a laugh. “SizzlPix! is dramatic. It will make a statement in any room.”

The SizzlPix CEO says, “Robert’s indomitable spirit is reflected in his spectacular photographic interpretations of the wonders of life in the natural world. It is an honor to have been chosen as his gallery display medium.”

Robert Flatt: “My pictures look wonderful in SizzlPix. I’ve been recommending it to everyone, telling them it’s the only way to go.”

By displaying Robert Flatt’s nature photography in the clinic, Eli M. Mizrahi, MD, Chair of the department, and Dr. Joseph Jankovic, Director, hope that patients will not only enjoy, but understand for the selves the healing benefits of art, and how it can affect the autonomic nervous system, hormonal balance, brain neurotransmitters, the immune system, and the blood flow to all organs of the body.

“Visitors to our home have always enjoyed art and artifacts from the exotic locales we’ve been fortunate to visit over the years, but they are enthralled by our new SizzlPix! made from snapshots we took recently in Sicily.

We had seen the originals on our computer, of course, but Ed and I had no idea how big and bright the SizzlPix would be.

We’ve hung them together in a prominent place next to our fireplace where our friends comment on the luminosity and depth they’re not used to seeing in photography. They have a hard time believing these are snaps we took ourselves with just a pocket camera!”
