FS fact sheet
CGI Studio
2D/3D HMI Software Development Platform
for Automotive Systems
Description0
CGI Studio is a software development platform for the
creation of 2D and 3D graphical interfaces (HMI/GUI) for
automotive instrument clusters and infotainment systems.
Part of the AutoGraFX application suite, CGI Studio offers
automotive system designers a powerful Microsoft Windows®
based solution to shorten development time for advanced
automotive applications.
Features0
CGI Studio is a based on 3D and 2D “Candera” engines. The
application allows platform-independent abstraction and fully
supports the OpenGL 2.0 ES standard to give system designers
the greatest possible design flexibility.
CGI Studio provides a single development tool chain. The application suite enables system designers to proceed from early
conception to design, prototyping, testing, and deployment.
Initial designs from the graphics artist can be imported into CGI
Studio from a variety of popular graphics software applications.
The system designer can then develop and enhance the design
in the AutoGraFX CGI Studio software environment. Before
deployment, the final functionality and appearance of the
interface design can be verified in a simulated rendering of the
target application within CGI Studio.
All AutoGraFX tools are optimized for Fujitsu graphics products,
including the latest 2D/3D SoCs. The CGI Studio tool can also be
used with non-Fujitsu graphics chips, providing a higher level of
software retention and reuse.
