Why Choose 4D Systems?

We took some time to soul search and really understand what makes us different when it comes to intelligent display solutions. We spoke to customers, engineers, distributors and technical support staff to understand why people continue to pick 4D Systems.

Tailor Made

“We had a problem and you designed an actual solution for us”

Our customers come to us with challenges, and we respond with tailored ideas and solutions. We focus on understanding customer needs to design solutions that align with their projects and bottom lines.

Enterprise manufacturers, engineers, and design houses value our comprehensive offerings. We provide display modules and processors as a complete package or as stand-alone modules. Our products support rapid development or function as independent systems.

For one engineer, a scalable option might meet both low- and high-volume needs without requiring new software investment while minimising development costs. For another, a 4D display could revitalise outdated hardware with a modern interface and dynamic connectivity options, integrating with our products or other IDEs.

We thrive on exploring innovative solutions to meet diverse needs.

Reputation

“Proven products and frequent innovation”

For over 20 years, 4D Systems has been a global leader in intelligent displays and graphics processors. We’re known for consistently providing superior, state-of-the-art, commercially ready embedded graphics solutions sold directly to customers or through global distribution partners. Our growing range of embedded displays leverages LED, OLED, and LCD technology, while our dedicated graphics processors provide the horsepower to bring superior yet affordable graphics systems to any application.

Essentially, we have an innovative graphics display solution for virtually any application requiring a graphics display, with or without touch. Our modules are used in various applications, from high-value, low-mix end products and mid-volume industrial applications to high-volume mass-market applications.

With world-class manufacturing facilities worldwide and growing, our engineers invest time and energy researching the most innovative solutions our customers have ever seen.

Speed

“You work efficiently and communicate rapidly – it’s refreshing”

Speed is king. We exist to accelerate development times, delivering rapidly and efficiently with products designed specifically for ease of integration and swift application development. We consistently surprise customers with our responsiveness, exceeding expectations to expedite development while allowing for exceptionally fast prototyping and deployment.

This is a testament to our team and our culture of agile success.

Our display modules, coupled with our 4D Workshop Integrated Development Environment, offer an unrivalled time to market from initial prototyping all the way through to a finished product.

Furthermore, as product development lifecycles are getting shorter and there is increased pressure on time-to-market, even larger organisations with seemingly unlimited resources are delighted with using our easier, more flexible, and scalable display solutions for their applications.

Lifetime Partner

“The relationship didn’t end once we had the hardware – that meant a lot”

It’s a lifetime of live, competent, responsible, and personal technical support. Our engineers take the time to listen and investigate specific goals and problems to develop the best possible solutions on an ongoing basis.

You’re never alone, as our in-house team of seasoned electronics and software engineers is on standby, supporting fast implementation, impeccable problem-solving, and ongoing advice.

We feed off our conversations with customers, fueling our R&D investments and core technology. This cycle of information and support leads to win-win scenarios we are proud of.

In that regard, we’re redefining what customers should expect from meaningful relationships and world-class customer support, and people are taking note.

Winning Tools

“Workshop4 Integrated Development Environment – it’s amazing”

Having a feature-packed graphic display is one thing; putting it to good use is another. For this reason, we developed Workshop4 IDE, a tool that lets the user design innovative graphical user interfaces (GUIs) easily and quickly.

It’s the tool of choice for programming the modules as it features multiple development environments, from text-based to visual programming. Together, these allow the user to have a GUI up and running in minutes rather than days, benefiting a range of users, from the pro-maker to the most demanding engineer.

Its drag-and-drop feature makes it practical and intuitive for all user types and eliminates the need for traditional coding. Time previously spent creating and drawing touch-capable graphical elements before integrating them into the application can now be spent on other essential tasks, like drinking coffee. Projects will be finished faster, look nicer, and have greater possibilities.

It Pays to Belong

“I get a lot from being a part of your community”

Over several years, our community has built an ecosystem of sharing through user forums, application notes, videos, and code documentation.

We even have a project gallery where you can find inspiration or post your projects. It’s a collective sharing environment that has flourished, enabling all kinds of users to benefit and adopt new and exciting solutions available for everyone.

Vast numbers of examples are available online, thus ‘kick-starting’ application development. This provides access to excellent, widely available documentation, rapid prototyping, and faster market time.

Respected Quality

“Peace of mind is a wonderful thing.”

Our customers never doubt our quality, and quality matters every step of the way. Our hardware and software engineering teams are well-seasoned. We work with ISO-9001-certified production factories and use our quality assurance procedures for impeccable outcomes.

Hardware is available directly or through one of many distribution partners worldwide. Our engineering team directly supports our hardware, allowing impeccable problem-solving, so you’re not alone.
