What People Are Saying About FIDE™......

"Fuzzy systems can model any system. That's theorem. But you need software to build a fuzzy system and hardware to build a very large and fast one. FIDE delivers on both counts. It gives you a fine software tool kit to build and tune fuzzy systems. And you can port it to custom hardware for the big problems. I recommend it."
-- Dr. Bart Kosko, Professor,
Electrical Engineering Dept, University of Southern California Author of Neural Networks and Fuzzy Systems (1993), and Fuzzy Engineering (Feb. 1997)

"FIDE looks like one of those tools that will significantly increase the use and understanding of fuzzy logic. Everything is under one roof: graphical representation of the system, functions and rules, traceability from the most abstract to the lowest levels, and the easy ability to link to other systems. And at the price, it's almost impossible not to want to try out a fuzzy approach to your next design."
-- Tom Williams, Senior Editor,
Computer Design, (408)335-5514

"Fuzzy logic promises to open an entirely new world of capability, capacity and function for intelligent machines, applications, and consumer goods. With over 10 years in the business of building and implementing fuzzy systems, I know what it takes to provide a rich, robust and powerful environment for building, validating and delivering fuzzy systems. FIDE tool is remarkable combination of power and ease of use, of functional richness and end user flexibility. With its intuitive Windowsä - based approach, FIDE provides a seamless workstation environment where designers can build, integrate, simulate, verify and deliver (directly from micro-code if necessary) a complete fuzzy model. It is easily superior to its nearest competition." "… I am pleased that Aptronix is once more a player in the fuzzy logic field. I have developed a fuzzy Java library, perhaps I should not duplicate your (Aptronix') work."
-- Earl Cox, President,
Metus Systems Group, Author of Fuzzy Systems Handbook, Fuzzy Logic Illustrated, and Fuzzy Logic for Business and Indsutry, Fuzzy Models with Java (with Fide Software).

"The fact that … FIDE can call a homemade C routine and C routines can call FIDE as library functions gives FIDE the potential to be a very powerful tool for engineers involved in simulations."
-- Mark Jurik, Chief Engineer,
Jurik Research & Consulting, P. O. 2379, Aptos, CA 95001

"FIDE is a well rounded package that allows a user to easily define fuzzy logic systems at any level, from the most complex to the very simple. FIDE is worth the money because of the flexibility you get to define your system.""
-- Jason Spielman, & Duberly Mazuelos, Electrical Engineer,
Motorola Microprocessor Group

"FIDE as a complete software tool provides an excellent solution to the general practice of object recognition and pattern classification. It helps cut algorithm software development time and gives a set of nice debugging tools. I like using it."
-- Dr. Karrlo Heiskenan, Staff Scientist,
InVision Technologies, Inc., Foster City, CA 

"… I have already started working on airplane control using FIDE. It is quite exciting to think of the possibilities that FIDE will open up to the students in our department. I also think that this will help in attracting students from other majors to take our Mechatronics courses …"
-- Joe Fournell, Instructor, Industrial & Manufacturing Engineering Dept,
California Poly University

"FIDE is a nice tool to develop scientific research programs in a number of fields, such as security inspection, GPS navigation, airport access control, and resource scheduling. I highly recommend it."
-- Dr. Shiu Cheung, R & D Program Manager
Federal Aviation Administration Technical Center

"Since the Internet has brought the world a bit closer to home there have been several thinngs which have excited my imagination: robotics, embedded processors, Java and fuzzy logic. I have a project at home to robotise a remote control car for my 10 year old son. We got it to roam about the house by bumping into objects and tipping over edges then backing away and turning. There has to be a better way! This is the reason for me to order FIDE Starter Kit. I don't have the resources of NASA so I haven't yet ordered the Java version of FIDE (I haven't yet told my wife that I have ordered the FIDE kit!). Maybe later ... for both."
