History

Furuno Electric Shokai was founded in Nagasaki, Japan in 1948. The same year, Furuno commercialized the world's first practical fish finder. Manufacturing continued to ramp up as the decade came to a close, and by the mid-1950s, Furuno was producing various Marine supplements, such as early examples of commercial Marine radars. In 1973, Furuno created an early iteration of satellite positioning receivers for vessels at sea. Later that decade, Furuno entered the United States market, establishing an HQ in the United States as Furuno USA.[3] Following this expansion and continued growth, Furuno continued expanding their marine-based radar products. In 2009, Furuno acquired San Francisco based eRide, Inc., a fabless semiconductor company.[4] Following this acquisition, in 2013, Furuno introduced an X-band weather radar, the smallest of its kind.[5] In 2015, the company's GNSS Receiver Modules were used in radio controlled flying quadcopters.[6]

Furuno's marine electronic devices has been featured in Licence to Kill (1989) as product placement.[7]
