Constellation 3D

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Constellation 3D (C3D or CDDD)[1] was a company developing a new optical medium, the Fluorescent Multilayer Disc and Card (FMD/C).[2][3][4]

The company was shut down following a failure to receive a committed investment by a Swiss based investor (see Press Releases of November 20, 2001, January 3, 2002, February 19, 2002 and April 19, 2002) and the unavailability of other financial sources. The company stopped activities and later on filed for bankruptcy. A company called D Data Inc.[5] was formed which acquired the entire patent portfolio of Constellation 3D in 2003, and reintroduced the technology under the new name of Digital Multilayer Disk (DMD).

While Constellation 3D declared bankruptcy, company stock continues to trade on the Pink Sheets under the symbol CDDDQ.PK
