Why only the holistic HMI approach will lead the way
SESA to exhibit at Automotive World Nagoya, September 5-7
Linz, Austria and Yokohama, Japan, August 3, 2018 --- Socionext Embedded Software
Austria (SESA) and Socionext Inc. will be exhibiting at the 1st Automotive World Nagoya,
September 5 to 7, at Portmesse Nagoya International Exhibition Hall. We are proud to showcase
CGI studio, the one-stop solution for creating brilliant 2D/3D HMIs like digital instrument
clusters, head-up displays, infotainment systems and many more. Make sure to visit the SESAbooth 9-10 in hall 3 to learn more about CGI Studio and how it helps you improve key features
like user experience and driver safety. http://www.automotiveworld-nagoya.jp/en/home/
Holistic HMISESA will present a completely new holistic HMI demo. The Holistic Demo created with CGI
Studio and based on Android/Linux will show, how multiple displays are perfectly interacting andcommunicating with each other. This is possible due to our powerful messaging and data binding
tool Courier Interaction Framework for smooth interaction between the HMI application andexternal data sources. Based on modern hypervisor technology the Holistic Demo will combine
both: seamless communication and maximum user experience.
Holistic HMIs will not only have the ability to perfectly interact and communicate with each other,
they will be able to connect with nomadic devices (e.g. Apple CarPlay, Google Android Auto) andconsider both: the driver’s situation as well as the traffic environment. Therefore when talking
about holistic HMIs we’re also talking about new technologies like augmented reality.

AR Head-up-Displays
We believe that it is time to bring the driver’s attention back to where it belongs: onto the road.
We see the upcoming trend of Augmented Reality and HuD becoming a standard feature of themodern car. With built-in warping and low latency rendering of the powerful embedded Candera
Render Engine, CGI Studio is the perfect solution for developing dynamic applications likeAR-HuDs. By projecting the main information into the line of sight driver distraction is reduced
tremendously.
With more than 50 Million cars equipped and over 18 years of experience in embedded HMIs it isour conviction, that holistic HMIs will be the logical approach. The world’s top OEMs and TIER1s
are enabled through CGI Studio to follow this idea.
