THUMS Virtual Human Model (THUMS®*)
THUMS®* lets us forecast the injuries that vehicle occupants and pedestrians may experience in an accident, so that even safer vehicles can be developed.
*THUMS: Total HUman Model for Safety
(Joint research with Toyota Motor Corporation)

Rear View Lane Detection for Rear View Camera

Using the rear-view camera that is usually used for making parking easier, but not during normal driving, we are developing a lane detection system for use on expressways.
(Joint research with Toyota Motor Corporation)

radar Electrically Scanned Millimeter-Wave Automotive Radar
We have developed a stable sensor that detects the range, relative speed and azimuthal angular position of obstacles near and around the vehicle in any weather conditions.
For use in smart cruising systems and preventative safety systems, etc.
(Partial joint research with Toyota Motor Corp. and Denso Corp.)

netstream Modeling of Tire Properties for Vehicle Analysis
We have developed a tire model with high accuracy, which is indispensable for calculating vehicle dynamic behavior (running, turning, stopping), to increase efficiency and reduce the time required for vehicle development.
(Partial joint research with Toyota Motor Corporation)

netstream NETSTREAM: Traffic Simulator for Evaluating Traffic Information Systems
We are contributing to the ITS technology that will reduce congestion and improve the environment developing a means of calculating and reproducing the flow of tens of thousands of vehicles traveling on hundreds of roads within a large area (traffic flow).
