MICAD Marine LLC is a computer hardware and software manufacturing company, focused on the acquisition and display of real-time information. We are located in Los Angeles, California. Our product is the MICAD Cruise By Wire System. The need for microcomputer and PC based systems providing real-time, high speed, data acquisition for the stock markets in the early 1980's was the foundation for the original company. That company delivered real-time stock market quotations and transactions information, through its own proprietary satellite network and with its own proprietary software, to customers throughout the United States. In 1994 the research and development of our new MICAD Marine information management system began. Creating and defining the product evolved over the last seven years. The same concepts that were the foundation of our financial information system are the focus of real-time data collection and presentation for our marine products. Besides our unique real-time information and diagnostics, the MICAD Cruise By Wire System includes on-line manuals and specifications for all systems and products installed on each individual vessel. Fourth quarter, 2002 is the next phase of our company's progress…. we announce the availability and delivery of Cruise By Wire.
