Technology

To contribute to and provide what every one of our customers wants,
we continue to refine our unique visual, audio, and communication technologies.
To provide people with new "emotion and relaxation" in the future,
we are also developing sensing technology and robot technology that responds to people's wants and needs.

Unique technologies that continue to create tomorrow's world

Visual Technology

As visual technology professionals, we will continue to create new experiences and values by providing end-to-end solutions from video input that supports the creativity of creators to video storage and output that reaches the emotions of viewers.

  • AI technology and other unique high-quality picture technologies that automatically optimize image quality in response to the viewing environment and video content
  • Unique video compression technology that handles data with ultra-high efficiency while maintaining full picture quality, and which enables our All-Channel Recording function
  • Unique image processing LSI technology that enables high-speed, high-efficiency signal processing for information-rich video input such as 4K
  • Real-time video processing technology that enables versatile and diverse video production in live video production, with multiple layers and low latency
Visual Technology

Audio Technology

Leveraging our audio and sound engineering backed by Technics technology, we remain committed to taking on the challenge of developing sound technology. As professionals who pursue depth of sound, we strive to provide a sound recording environment that truly understands the creator's intentions, offering an optimal sound field with a sense of realism.

  • Technology to create stereophonic sound systems that generate optimal sound staging and provide a realistic sound experience
  • Unique magnetofluid driver technology for earphones that enables a wide frequency range and clear playback with minimal distortion
  • Voice analysis technology that makes calls easier, using the JustMyVoiceâ„¢ function, which detects the speaker's voice and minimizes background noise
Audio Technology

Communication Technology

We are continuing to create new customer value in the digital age by further refining our communication and network technologies, which we have cultivated in the production of cordless telephones, which boast the No. 1 market share globally. Additionally, the "KAIROS" platform, at the core of the "Shooting, creating, and projecting" workflow at the live video production site.

  • Unique wireless transmission technology that enables stable and low-latency transmission of clear 4K digital images, allowing video experiences to be enjoyed anywhere
  • Power-saving wireless technology that enables battery-powered voice and visual communication and allows communication devices, such as intercoms, to be installed in any location
  • Software technology that enables easy access to home equipment even when on the go (cloud transmission technology, apps development technology, etc.)
  • IP network technology that achieves the efficient operation of equipment through remote operation and resource sharing during live video production
Communication Technology

Mechanical and Optical Technology

With digital technology continuously evolving, ever greater sophistication of the analog technology that supports it is needed. By refining and combining these two, we will create products of unparalleled value.

  • Heat dissipation modeling and unique mechanical design technology that effectively discharges the heat generated during extended use and which enables unlimited video recording
  • Robotics technology that achieves smooth and high-speed control at the micrometer level (Pan-tilt control, image stabilization, autofocus technology, etc.)
  • Optical technology that enables vivid picture image output without distortion (optical design, aspherical lens technology, precision assembly technology, etc.)

R&D to provide new value to people

Awareness of people's needs and wants (Sensing Technology)

To be able to continue to contribute to and gain awareness of the needs of each and every customer, not only while in contact with our products and services, we will focus on the values of our customers through "getting to know people" very minute and every second (e.g., emotion, voice, and facial expression detection)

  • Speech recognition to correctly understand what a person is saying
  • Development of AI sensing technology to grasp the position and characteristics of a person, and entire space.
  • Detection of an individual's identity using millimeter-wave sensors
  • Visualization of emotions
  • Technological development based on data analysis, AI analysis, and human engineering

Relaxation for people (Robotics technology)

One of our initiatives for directly assisting people is the Nicobo 'vulnerable' robot. We will continue to work to provide new values from new and different perspectives.

  • AI technology that learns and grows from conversations with people
  • Sensor-driven technology that enables natural robot movements
  • Development technologies that are not restricted by conventional ways of thinking, such as the imaginative amalgamation of yarn and home appliance technology.

Helping to build a sustainable society

To realize a sustainable society, we will work towards the decarbonization of society at large (carbon neutrality) and the building of a circular economy.

  • Power-saving technologies that lead to reduction of CO2 emissions (device control technology, battery control technology, etc.) - Use of ethical packaging and recycled materials
