Page 2 of 2 The CEO and Founder of Fountain Consulting, Tony Welch, is a visionary 27 year old who has an amazing story to tell. His grandfather was a photographer who specialized in stereoscopic photography many years ago, and it was he that got Tony thinking about images always in 3D. Featured Whitepaper

Astoundingly, Besides eerily and perhaps prophetically almost having the same name as young Tony himself, this 3D viewer was so exciting to Tony that he told his mother he would one day make it possible for us all to watch TV in 3D. I’m sure his mother thought he was just dreaming, but a mere 22 years later, Tony and his company have made it a reality. It’s taken Tony and his team 3 years to perfect the technology to a stage where it is ready to launch onto the world stage in early 2007. He has a team of 5 people, and has also worked with 15 other major companies to make his vision come to life. Tony is no slouch when it comes to computer and technology, before embarking on his 3D adventure, he was an automation engineer for Cisco Systems. The taglines his company has already used to describe the experience include: “We bring the excitement of theme park 3D into your living room”, and “It’s as fun to watch as it is to play.” The existing Fountain Consulting website only has a limited amount of information available, but does have some descriptive information and contact details if you want to get in contact directly. There is an amazing new website coming on the 1st of January, which you’ll find from the Fountain Consulting website, but I’ve been sworn to secrecy as to what it’s called, so you’ll just have to wait until January 1 to find out. However don’t bother if you want to invest, Tony already has a number of investors and others trying to buy the company out already, with a local Australian distributor already appointed, called Direct2U Australia under the brand name 3DVisual. Lest you think this is yet another 3D adventure that will turn into a misadventure, the visuals I’ve seen of high-definition 3D in games, movies and TV cannot be denied, and the world will soon see all of its video in three dimensions.
