COMPUTEX, Taipei (Taiwan) — June 2, 2005. Visson Technologies’ A2000T Combo DVB-T digital TV plus Navigation system is currently on display at the Grand Hyatt Hotel in Taipei, following a series of demonstrations at the recent CES, CeBIT, and Car+Sound shows. The A2000T in-car entertainment solution integrates GPS navigation with DVB digital TV, with the emphasis on its navigation component.
“During 2004 and 2005 our company made numerous technology advances, and gradually shifted our focus to high-end mobile DTV receivers, navigation systems, and integrating these technologies with entertainment modules”, James Wu, CEO for Visson, mentioned today at Visson’s exhibition suite in the Grand Hyatt Hotel. “We are positioned very favorable for current global DTV markets, and with our cross-platform capabilities for a diverse range of technologies, Visson has proven its competence as a global DTV leader,” James stated. “Our future vision is to combine standards such as DVB, ISDB and ATSC into a single product, and we also plan to gradually cross into handheld markets.”
A demo of the A2000T Digital TV and Navigation system can be viewed at COMPUTEX Taipei 2005 (May 31 – June 4, 2005), at Suite 1334 in the Grand Hyatt Hotel. Visson will announce an official release and shipping-ready date for this solution later in 2005, when it is ready for worldwide distribution.
