Cycolor?: Mead Imaging's New Color-Imaging Technology

In December 1987, Mead Imaging, a division of the Mead corporation announced a new color reproduction technology, called Cycolor?, which will bring high-quality, low-cost, full-color reproduction to everyday business communications. Cycolor represents the combination of three separate technologies: microencapsulation, carbonless chemistry, and photopolymerization. Cycolor's uniqueness is in the photoinitiators that allow visible light to be used in making Cycolor a truly panchromatic color process. thus, Cycolor is the world's first practical color, photographic-like film technology that does not contain silver halide and is sensitive to visible light. Mead Imaging has secured hardware partners to develop hardware utilizing the Cycolor technology.
