MFD

The new standard

JRC’s revolutionary Multi Function Display has been built from the ground up. All teams involved in MFD development have no small task to manage. We challenged ourselves to find the best, most forward-looking way to engineer the hardware in a flexible, high performance and ergonomic way and design the user interface with the purpose to create an experience that lives up to the JRC standard of excellence.

When we put it together, the result was something unlike JRC had ever done before, creating a whole new structure, applied across the whole system, bringing intuitive content display making navigation dramatically more interactive and intimate than ever before.

Philosophy
The philosophy we put into our new generation navigation equipment has been a result of listening carefully to ship captains, officers, owners and the desire to create a whole new experience. We went back to the drawing board and designed a simple and flexible concept that perfectly suits the working environment for all mariners and can be applied on all types of vessels.

Every product in our new line up is individually available following minimum [IMO] requirements as a cost effective solution and is at the same time expandable by use of optional software and hardware packages to create a highly flexible model. The moment you have purchased two or more products/software licenses it automatically becomes a Multi Function Display and you are able to see the information you want by use of smart switching.

jMarine Cloud™

As the name may suggest, JRC is developing its first and very own ‘shared space’ for our users, allowing direct access to data and applications and all directly available from the MFD. Think of weather, charts, fuel, piracy threats, port service, tide info and so on - seamlessly. Coming soon.

JRC Blizzard™

Integrated in the MFD is our next generation processor named Blizzard™, allowing for very high performance signal and graphic processing, and as such, capable of easily performing the complex tasks available on the system.

Raising the bar

The hardware and design engineers have raised the bar significantly for JRC, not only compared to current models but also to the what the market traditionally expects from us. During the process we have created a user interface unique to JRC which has been set as default logic, including all design elements for any future product which JRC will release and amaze our users with. Our software engineers are, and will continue to be, the brains behind probably JRC’s biggest project and product development since the founding in 1915.

Not just icons

Going through and finding the menu has never been this easy. On every MFD the menu button is located at the bottom left. A new set of icons has been carefully designed which allow finding the right item at a glance. Users can access to all functions by trackball or by touch operation, at any time.

Information provision

The information provision on both 19- and 26-inch can not be the same simply because of space. However we accomplished a uniform design and developed the software in such a way you can arrange and find information easily, flexibly and instantly.

Fits everywhere

As a leading manufacturer of marine bridge equipment, we continuously respond to market needs which has resulted in a beautiful, modular and cost-effective platform. This unique setup allows for different maritime sectors and types of vessels. You can have just a simple standalone radar but at the same time select and upgrade your system for the most demanding applications. Mix and match.

Regardless of how you use, or which product you select, it all has been designed with a standardized form factor which allows easy assembly and repair, smart production, logistical savings, upgrades and so on.
