Research and development of polymer actuator and joint application development with customers of broad spectrum of mechanical device products (one and only company in the world to deal with polymer actuator).
- Polymer actuator is a novel type of actuator device, which is small, light weight, and low power consumption due to the low voltage drive of polymer motion
- Many applications are under examination, since small and light weight actuators are demanded to meet the development of minituarization technology
- Particularly suited to moving camera lens of a mobile phone and becoming increasingly important in the course of the development of industry and advanced technology
Also involved in research and development of ion conduction actuator, conductive polymer actuator, sensor, and capacitor, artificial muscle (for care equipment, auxiliary muscle, rehabilitation equipment, etc.)
