MobilityAD/ADAS

In the connected and AD/ADAS fields, it supports the enhancement of
sensing functions and high-speed communication from the material aspect.

Polymer Waveguide (PWG) for In-Vehicle Network
(Under Development)

Contributes to the construction and simplification
of next-generation harnesses (optical harnesses).

Advantage

The optical wiring is lighter than the electrical wire harness, has no noise, and can reliably distribute a large amount of information into the automotive
