I came across these drawings on the web...and haven't time to do any detective work on them so as
yet so I don't know anything about them. Interesting though.

they seem to be a design development house?

[Brian Drysdale]

This company were involved with an Aaton style camera design. This been around for about a couple of years, I believe it's a Super 16 sensor, but I don't think much has heard recently on developments. Although, looking at the spec on their site I assume it's the same sensor that's being used on the SI 2K.

Mystery solved then...they seem to be a product development company based in Zurich, I wonder who commissioned them
for this camera?

People, you talking about Aaton Delta Penelope?

http://www.aaton.com...delta/index.php

Digital Penelope records full rez 4K uncompressed
images with wide dynamic range to on-board DeltaPacks. These
can be used with the Codex Transfer Station and Vault. Most
people are equipped with the Codex. It’s very popular. You do not
need the Codex to record on the camera, which makes it light. We
have on-board recording to our DeltaPacks.

No, it's a proposed camera by a Swiss design company based on the Aaton layout. The Delta Penelope is Super 35, this camera has a Super 16 sized sensor.
