「In core and fundamental technologies, we are advancing development aimed at delivering value in the areas of “emotion,” “safety,” and “the environment,” centered on multimodal sensing that combines elemental technologies corresponding to the five senses, including magnetic, radio-wave, electrostatic, acoustic, and actuation technologies, and integrates software, algorithms, and in-house IC design technologies. To accelerate these initiatives, we are also strengthening our technological capabilities through comprehensive collaboration with multiple universities and the sharing of courses, among other measures.」
