Technology Perspectives from Fujitsu
February 18, 2013The FUJITSU Group has continued its constant pursuit of innovation, with a responsive web / mobile site named Technology Perspectives.
With the visual style of Pinterest, the structure of a blog and the technological expertise of one of the world’s largest information and communication technology (ICT) companies, this is a platform of exceptionally interesting information.
One article reflects on the potential of medical technologies to ease the burden of healthcare maintenance for the individual. Currently available technologies which can be applied to the future of healthcare solutions include: barcode, broadband, cloud-based medical records, database, NFC, remote and self monitoring, smartphone and WiFi.

Another article combines a highly advanced study of human behaviour, retail floor plans and simulated shopper traffic which results in strategies for delivering improved business efficiency.
By combining three behavioural logics of shoppers (limitation, assessment and avoidance) in retail stores, Fujitsu Laboratories was able to reproduce all of the actual observed patterns of crowding. This makes it possible to optimize the number and layout of cash registers as well as lane opening and closing times.

Fujitsu has proven its capabilities many times over, but one extremely impressive effort was the contribution which Fujitsu made to the Hayabusa space mission.
Over seven years, the “Hayabusa” asteroid probe travelled to and landed on the “Itokawa” asteroid, then returned to Earth in a 6 billion kilometre journey! The probe was retrieved near Woomera, South Australia.

We have been fortunate to work with Andrew and his creative team from the inception of our business. The design and execution of our site has been fundamental in winning over clients and establishing our footprint in a very crowded space. We also place great value on their input into our business process.
The services provided included the registration of our domain name, establishment of our email accounts, and development & hosting of our website, were all executed rapidly and effectively. We also appreciate the service of upgrading our list of 150 shelf company names (in Chinese characters and English) every 2 weeks.
We valued the high level of creative design provided by Digital Tsunami, both for the website and the corporate identity.
With a brief timeline to ensure we had a web presence and launch coinciding with our 10 year anniversary, Digital Tsunami delivered. On time. On budget. Great Effort!
The team at Digital Tsunami was incredibly responsive, delivering a solution well ahead of deadline. Their technical knowledge was exceptional, they were innovative, and they were very meticulous. What's more, they understood my business and technical requirements and translated them into a user-friendly, refined, professional site which is conceptually simple and cohesive.
By taking the time to understand our business, industry and vision, Digital Tsunami created a site that truly reflected our leadership position in the market and our strategic direction.
