 and we're here at the Embedded World 2022. Hi, so please introduce yourself. I'm David Abar from Cantera. We're an HMI tool provider for embedded systems. So we provide a tool called CGI Studio. CGI Studio is a designer-orientated HMI tool to create embedded HMIs. As you see here is an automotive sample. The automotive sample shows here the car and the infotainment. So the infotainment cluster, this is running on a RENASAS R-Car H3 using real-time rendering via OpenGL. And also the infotainment system is here integrated. And with our tool it's possible to create HMIs with just a few clicks. It's designer-orientated, so if you're a 3D artist it's easy to use our tool, create HMIs. There is no coding required. It's what you see, it's what you get. And yeah, you create them high-performance embedded HMIs. So what's happened since last year? How many things have improved and changed? Yeah, there are actually some completely new things. You can see new demos over there. We have here some automotive demos and also non-automotive demos. We have the automotive weather demo here. This is a real-time rendering of outside effects in a car. So you can have weather reflected. You have also, let's say, from the other system, also input. You can see also here an instrument cluster based on a radio too. So this one can actually create it in just a few minutes in our tool. So let's say less than an hour. Less than an hour you create such an HMI. Here you have a medical device. This basically is an STM32 MP1 series. So running on a smaller screen with Linux. But perfectly for medical devices or white goods or stuff like that if you want to animate stuff with 3D animations, integration and so on. We have here a robotic industrial demo. This one runs on an iMix 8. We can also modify directly and interact with 3D models on the screen. And save data points and also do animations with 3D. So this would be perfect to enrich, let's say, industrial products with a maintenance screen you have available, let's say, more interactions than a classic mathematics display or other input devices. Here we have a coffee machine sample. Also for, let's say, white goods market. Coffee machine could be also, for example, and rich with 3D animations and stuff like that. You have, let's say, here really a premium user interface available. Moreover, you could also imagine doing stuff like creating a fridge and over in a washing machine or something like that with CJI Studio. So actually these demos are done, let's say, within one working day. Here you have even 3D interactions on it. So the tool is completely orientated on 3D artists. So it's possible to create HMIs quickly. So instead of having software engineers working with these samples, we are using 3D artists to create them. There is no coding required. And they are created, yeah, in a very short time. Nice. So it's just getting more beautiful, the embedded UIs. Yes, exactly. So one advantage is, as we are using OpenGL with our platforms, also none of, let's say, also MCUs. Thanks. Also MCUs without and with graphics engine. Maybe you show some demonstrations in there a little bit. Ah, yeah. Here you see our CJI Studio with some of our key features. So this is actually our product. What you see is what you get designed to. So if you're familiar with 3D tools from the 3D authoring space, let's say, like Blender or even gaming industry like Unreal Engine or Unity, you can start directly creating embedded HMIs. So it comes bundled with a lot of useful feature sets to support you. For example, the Smart Importer. Here you can see it. The Smart Importer is a tool basically allowing you importing assets from the Photoshop. Importing. Okay. Importing. Photoshop, Adobe XD, Sketch or even Azure V can be directly imported and then reached. Moreover, what else can we show you? Yes, some of our partners supported platforms. So we are really hardware independent. So you can use CJI Studio running on nearly any platform. Also different operating systems, Linux systems, specific real-time systems. And also using without operating systems. So we really bring out the maximum performance from your platform. And yeah. Cool. What kind of discussions you're having here at the embedded world? What do people come and talk about? What do they want? HMIs. Just more and more tools? So actually, most people are interested in creating easily and fast HMIs. So the HMI sector is moving from a software engineering sector to a, let's say, designer-oriented market. So this means that users are typically a different kind of role. There are artists. Artists should create HMIs, not software engineers. Moreover, this speeds up the development. If artists directly create HMIs, they can focus on the design, on the output, on the quality of the product. You don't need the software engineers, on the other hand, to coordinate between designers and software engineers. And this makes it actually quite easy. So here we have a lot of positive feedback that our tool provides the capability to allow artists creating HMIs directly, run it on the hardware immediately. So I typically suggest that you have, let's say, if you develop a CJI Studio, you have a designing tool, and bitmaps, stuff like that on the one hand. You have CJI Studio creating the HMI, and next to you is directly the embedded hardware. You can bring it to the target just with a few mouse clicks and run the HMI directly there, test it already, record some videos directly from the hardware itself to forward it, and you'll see that, let's say, the new HMI is running on it smoothly with high performance and without any coding. So no software engineer is required when you want to create HMIs. Nice. And since last year, there's just more and more people coming into your ecosystem, more people trying it out? Yes, absolutely. So new markets are opening. As time goes by, a lot of new controllers come to the market. So also based on new lore, controllers get cheaper and cheaper every year. This means that it's open space for new markets. So the automotive market offered premium HMIs. Currently we see that the market is offering in more and more segments, like Whitegold's market or the medical market, HMIs with a high quality. So the new controller generations make it possible to use HMIs on, let's say, washing machines, for example. So people are demanding it. So we get a lot of feedback and a lot of customers coming to us to actually ask us for supporting them how to create HMIs and using our tool to then actually provide the products. Do you have a feeling like the embedded industry is growing? Is more and more money in there? I think so, yes. I think the big problem only will be the chip shortage. But yeah, in general, yes. What do you do to solve the chip shortage? As a software provider, we can't do much, unfortunately, except that we are providing high performance. What we see is that due to chip shortage... People want the high performance. Yes, people want high performance, but it's also that the current serial production controls are not available. As they are not available, you are looking for a lower class, which could be still bought, for example. So with our high performance platform, it's possible that you still can achieve or create the products, deliver the same or similar performance and downgrade the CPU. If you switch to Scandiava Studio, as we have, let's say, the highest performance on the market from a rendering perspective. Cool. All right, thanks a lot. Nice to see you in real life. Yes, it was nice to meet you. It's a little bit different than the video chat. Yes, it was nice to meet you.
