- The following is content from the press release -
(Headquarters: Nagoya City, Aichi Prefecture; President: Hiroyuki Maki; hereafter "Buffalo"), a member of the Melco Holdings (TSE 6676) Group, has shipped over 200,000 units of its "OmoideBako" digital photo album series. We would like to express our sincere appreciation to our customers who have been using OmoideBako on a regular basis.
OmoideBako is a digital photo album that allows you to import photos and videos from smartphones and digital cameras and easily and automatically organize them. It provides the joy of looking back at photos of your children taken with multiple photographic devices, such as mom's smartphone and dad's smartphone or digital camera, as precious memories with those close to you on the TV in the living room or with your smartphone at hand.
Equipped with a large-capacity hard disk that can store up to 1 million contents (or until it runs out of capacity), you can comfortably keep more of your family's ever-growing number of photos and videos. By connecting this product to a network using a Wi-Fi router, Wi-Fi repeater, or LAN cable, you can enjoy importing and viewing photos from your smartphone or PC using the free OmoideBako application. Importing and playback of 4K*/HEVC videos from smartphones is also supported.
The "Album Group" function allows users to group albums with intuitive operations, and the "Sort Mode" allows users to easily sort imported photos, making it more convenient to store and organize photos from smartphones and digital cameras. An application that can be easily operated from a smartphone or PC is also available, allowing customers to choose the method that best suits their lifestyle.
reminiscences
Since the first model "PD-100" was released in November 2011, it has undergone several model changes and has gained support mainly from moms and dads of the smartphone generation for its proposals that can also be enjoyed with children.
The "PD-1000," with its redesigned housing in 2015, was more smartphone-compatible, including support for vertical video, and the "PD-1000S," released in 2017, improved usability with support for 5GHz wireless communication, crisp operation through software revisions, and a clip function for carrying data around. The "PD-1000S" released in 2017 features improved usability, including support for 5GHz wireless communication and a new software version that allows users to enjoy crisp operation and a clip function for carrying data around.
This was the catalyst for the change of the Omoidebako brand message from "Save and look back" to "Keep it with your loved ones. and shift the message from "to preserve and look back" to focus more on the importance of communication surrounding photographs.
In July 2022, the latest model "PD-2000" series will be released. The housing has been completely redesigned to match the rapidly evolving smartphone environment, with support for 4K* and HEVC video capture and playback, and the number of manageable contents has been increased to 1 million, making it a new model that can comfortably store more photos and videos than ever before. The new model has evolved to meet the needs of the times.
The spread of the new coronavirus from 2020 has changed lifestyles, and trips, events, and school activities have been cancelled one after another, reducing the opportunities to take photos. On the other hand, there is now time to look back at photos again, creating a need to organize photos from the past.
Photos are precious memories that can only be captured at a particular time. Buffalo will continue to cherish irreplaceable memories and convey the value of sharing the experience of preserving and looking back on photos, and contribute to society through our corporate activities and the activities of each and every employee. We hope that you will continue to share your precious memories with "Omoide Bako".
*4K videos with a resolution higher than the normal 4K (3840 x 2160) cannot be imported. In addition, videos in 10-bit color recording format cannot be imported regardless of resolution. Some videos with frame rates exceeding 60 fps may not play back smoothly due to image choppiness or sound skipping.
