Laptop Battery Interactive Pictures Corporation (Nasdaq: IPIX), a leader in immersive imaging for the Internet, has announced that Carnival Cruise Lines, the world's number one cruise operator, will expand its IPIX presence on its popular Web site www.carnival.com, visited by thousands of consumers and travel agents each day. With this new agreement, IPIX will provide its signature 360 x 360 images for all new Carnival ships featured within the site, beginning with the Carnival Victory, slated to debut in the summer of 2000. IPIX images of Carnival Paradise, the world's first smoke-free cruise ship, and the Carnival Triumph, which entered service in July, are already featured within the line's Web site.
Carnival Cruise Lines Carnival is known as the fun ship, with a 24 hour pizzeria and water slides into their pools. If you like glitz and neon, this is the ship for you! The ships are very standardized. They use the same deck names, have the same features, and are high on snazzy electronic gadgets. Once you take one Carnival cruise, they want you to now be comfortable on any Carnival cruise line ship, to hop between them and enjoy all of the routes.
