We conduct research on information and communication, as well as electronics, to ensure advanced vehicles that better meet the needs of society.

In the field of information and communication, we carry out research on high-speed digital mobile telecommunication technologies, man-machine interfaces and display devices. The objective of this research is to develop a multifunctional vehicle-mounted information and communication system that promises greater usability.

The developments of devices and systems now in progress include power control devices for electric vehicles, communication devices, gas sensors, sensors for advanced vehicle control, and sensing systems based on optical, image, and radio-wave technologies.

The scope of our new research activity encompasses the most advanced research on information display devices and optical integrated circuits, as well as their materials and properties. In addition, for greater production efficiency, we are also studying information processing technologies for the improvement of design, manufacturing and logistics processes.
