Acquisition of Novero Investor presentation 18th December 2015
What Novero brings to Laird The acquisition of Novero and LSR rebalances our business, Wireless Systems will now be of a similar scale to Performance Materials Currently we own the leading technology for connectivity INTO the vehicle Novero gives us telematics control WITHIN the vehicle This means we possess the technology to manage everything between the external system and the infotainment front-end in the vehicle 2
Novero and Laird s Combined Technologies Service Centre GPS and Sat Radio Cellular Infotainment Includes WiFi, BT and BLE radios Telematics Control Smart Antenna Integrated Radios and Antennas Ethernet and/or CAN Data Bus Wireless Charging Connection for Hands Free Calling and Internet Connectivity 3 USB Charging Antenna Coupling Laird Novero
4 ecall Hardware Immediate alert of rescue services about the accident (number of vehicles, vehicle types, etc.) Precise knowledge of the location of the accident, significantly reduced travel time Faster clearance of the accident site, less secondary accidents, shorter traffic jams, lower fuel consumption and lower CO2 emissions Reduced costs for the insurance companies, the health care system and drivers Wi-Fi Hotspot Up to 8 Wi-Fi devices in the car can go online at the same time with up to 100 MBit/s downstream Remote Diagnostics Data such as mileage, oil level and tyre pressure can be queried via a smartphone app Owners of electric cars can determine when the battery needs to be recharged in order to cover a certain distance Telematics Control Software updates over the air Safety-related errors Comfort and infotainmentrelated errors Additions, updates, new features Track & Trace The position of a vehicle can be displayed on a map so drivers can be guided to the location Carriers and logistics operators can deliver more efficiently and provide information about the delivery automatically to their customers Remote Control Turning the smartphone into a smart and convenient remote control for the car to control temperature, lights and parking
Seamless connection between mobile phone and car antenna Calls can be received in high quality and position detection is optimized Reduces transmission power to conserve battery life and reduces radiation load Antenna Coupling NO MORE DEAD SPOTS 5
Functions as well as on a PC Ensures permanent optimal charging capacity, no matter which position the phone is placed in the tray Data transfer and charging operate perfectly in parallel USB Charging Wireless Charging Quick charging of mobile devices in cars without cables Device-specific cable works just like at home 6
Managing the Connectivity Space in Automotive Enhanced signal quality Over the air software updates Full telematics control USB charging Integrated DSRC shark fin antenna Smart antennas provide optimal RF performance DSRC (V2V / V2I) antenna + receiver Ability to integrate consumer electronics Cellular, GNSS Antenna + transceiver Data pipe Wireless charging Emergency responders Connected devices optimize fleet productivity WiFi Bluetooth LTE / MiMoantennas enable in vehicle data streaming Laird Novero Both 7
Technologies Manufacturing in Europe that complements our Telematics global footprint Advanced automotive reliability testing and certified in-house electro-magnetic compatibility (EMC) testing Integration of consumer electronic devices within the vehicle via: Wireless charging modules USB hubs Wireless signal enhancement 8
Customers & Markets Global automotive infotainment and connectivity market - 20bn New customers -Mercedes-Benz, DAF and MAN (our first heavy truck OEM) Increase our fully contented wireless system solutions in a typical family car from below $30 to more than $125 A key supplier to the largest auto manufacturers in Europe 9
