On January 22, a delegation from RF2Digital (R2D), a leading international provider of automotive digital radio technology and software solutions, visited JDO. The core team, led by RF2Digital CTO William Kim, met face to face with JDO's relevant business vice presidents and several business and technical leaders. The two sides held in-depth, systematic discussions on optimizing technical collaboration in existing projects, technology approaches for potential future projects, and long-term cooperation models for China and global markets, reaching a strong consensus on further deepening strategic cooperation.
RF2Digital (R2D) is an international technology company focused on next-generation automotive digital radio systems and software platforms. With its proprietary SDR (Software Defined Radio) digital broadcasting technology, R2D offers industry-leading solutions for multiple broadcast standards, including DAB, CDR, DRM, HD Radio, AM, and FM, and has advanced automotive audio processing technology in SDA (Software Defined Audio). With complete platform independence, its solutions support virtually all major in-vehicle operating systems, SoC platforms, and tuner suppliers. Its pioneering innovations include “single-channel emergency information recovery,” which uses spread-spectrum technology to optimize the recovery of emergency information from audio signals alone, without relying on a data network, reflecting a design approach focused on real vehicle operating environments. Based on a modular SDK architecture and partnerships with more than 30 global Tier 1 suppliers, its projects have reached a scale of over 30 million vehicles. With three European Tickmark certifications and a broad patent portfolio, R2D has established a strong global reputation for its technology. Its platform solutions have passed official testing and validation in major markets including China, India, the United States, and Europe, achieving OEM-grade readiness. Ongoing optimization of its unified architecture delivers strong scalability and global applicability.
