Acquisition International - Issue 7 2020 47 Creating Something New energy and smart building IoT automations. This has been achieved through working side by side with industry partners and pooling the resources to achieve efficient execution with innovations. The credit belongs to the team that results the cutting edge technology and enforcing time-to-market of new technologies. As a company committed to forward thinking and innovation, the next big step for FIC is to develop Internet of Vehicle (IoV). In recent years, FIC has been specialized in digital instrument cluster and AR (augmented reality) HUD products for Tier 1 & 2 automotive suppliers in China, USA and Europe. The AR HUD is mainly used to provide advance driving assistance system, driving navigation, call display, important road indicators, road obstacles, parking spaces, gas stations, and pedestrian attentions..etc. At the same time, while driving, it can also integrate with IoT and IoV to perform virtual store recommendations to drivers. Comparing to commonly used TFT or DLP technology, FIC utilizes LBS (laser beam scanning) as light source to project the 3D AR graphics for better contract, large virtual image, high brightness (sunlight readable) with VID (virtual image distance) 2m to 20m from driver’s eyebox. FIC also has the capability to provide various FOV angle choices for longer, larger virtual image with refined optical and mechanical structure design for both OE (original equipment) and aftermarket. The new design will be powered by 5G technology and will be led by enterprises’ application scenario. Within the next five years, automotive market will switch from 4G-focus to 5G-focus, and we strongly believe all the cars in the future, no matter it’s a luxury or an economic car, will have digital cluster and AR HUD technology embedded for better and safer driving experiences. Hence, preparing the company for this paradigm shift is the priority by all means. FIC has been intensively working on the enhancement of various kinds of automotive electronic designs in order to provide and maintain the highest standards requested by the highly esteemed car manufacturers and partners. With its in-house intellectual property, FIC believe its technology and contribution in automotive industry will bring a big change to people’s driving experience in the future. Needless to say, the team at FIC has proven themselves to be an incredible success, assisting car makers to accelerate into a new era of prosperity. With innovation guiding at the forefront, FIC is in the driver’s seat for the future’s unimaginable, top-notch technologies. Company: First International Computer, Inc.
