CORNING, N.Y. -
Corning Incorporated (NYSE: GLW) today announced its plans for
the International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las

highlight the company's newest specialty glass solutions and their
benefits for today's consumer electronics device trends.
Corning plans to introduce two new products at CES
2013: Corning®
Gorilla® Glass 3, a
new glass composition with durability enhancements; and Optical
Cables by Corning, fiber-based, device-to-device connectivity
solutions that significantly extend the data transmission range
past the limits of copper-based cables. Full product details will

"This year at CES, Corning will demonstrate its
industry leadership in specialty glass and fiber optic technologies
with the introduction of two products designed to enhance and
extend the capabilities of consumers' favorite devices," said
Wendell P. Weeks, chairman, chief executive officer, and president.
"These new innovations build on the increasingly important and
continually evolving role of highly engineered glass technologies
in delivering improved product performance and functionality
through touch capabilities, protective cover glass, and device
connectivity."
In the Corning booth, experts will be on hand to
discuss and present hourly demonstrations of the toughness of
Gorilla Glass 3 as well as the connectivity and flexibility of
Optical Cables by Corning. The booth will also showcase the
benefits of Corning Gorilla Glass in larger format, multi-touch
displays for education, entertainment and other applications.
Additionally, James P. Clappin, president, Corning
Glass Technologies will be a panelist in the "Disruptive
Technologies Impacting the Future of Games and Video" session at
11a.m. PST on Tuesday, Jan. 8, at LVCC, North Hall N255-257. He
will discuss the important role of highly specialized glass in some
of the latest consumer electronic technologies such as hi-res, 3D,
