Environmental exhibition
Pioneer participated in the Eco Products 2010 Exhibition. The Company’s participation was based on the overarching theme “Ecology to NEXT STAGE ― Pioneer’s Next-Generation Ecology.” The Exhibition itself was held over three days from December 9, 2010 (Thursday) to December 12, 2010 (Saturday) at the Tokyo Big Sight.
At the exhibition, the Company showcased its next-generation in-car display device, the Network Visions Head-Up Display. Supporting an increasingly safe and comfortable driving experience, the Company’s offerings featured on-board car navigation and other systems that boast lightweight and energy efficient speaker equipped seats, route search functions that reduce energy consumption, as well as a battery-charged search function. In addition to an electric “music vehicle” that allows drivers and passengers to enjoy the wonder of audio and movie entertainment while driving, Pioneer displayed its capabilities for displaying wide-ranging smart phone information on car windscreens.
The exhibition was an opportunity for Pioneer to provide to a large number of customers the true-to-life experience and excitement of a bright and enjoyable tomorrow that is already almost here.
