Pixel Velocity hires new COO, expects to double revenue in 2010

Pixel Velocity is prepped and ready for some growth after waiting out the recent recession.

The Ann Arbor-based firm expects its revenue to more than double this year and add a few more people to its staff of 19 (and a few independent contractors). The company just hired a new COO to help usher in that growth.

"This is a pretty important break-out year for Pixel Velocity," says Eric Sieczka, president and CEO of Pixel Velocity.

The company, located on the city's south side, creates high-speed digital image processing products for the surveillance and medical imaging markets. These products are used for everything from the surveillance market to the medical-imaging market, where Pixel Velocity's technology specializes in creating images of the heart.

One of its big projects includes installing its products at the Port of Detroit cargo terminals. It also has several projects going in the Washington, D.C., area. Sieczka says he can't reveal a lot of his customers because if security concerns, but says his company doesn't lack for them right now.

"This year we have quite a bit in the pipeline," Sieczka says.
