We have established a "Social Collaboration Course" with the University of Tokyo.

Our company is currently working with the Graduate School of Frontier Sciences at the University of Tokyo on a collaborative research program on vibration measurement and control in electric vehicles. A collaborative research program is established within an educational and research institution, such as a faculty or graduate school, utilizing funds received from external organizations, such as private companies, that wish to conduct joint research on a common issue of high public interest.

This course is established within the Graduate School of Frontier Sciences, University of Tokyo, and is scheduled to run until March 31, 2026.

In this course, Professor Hiroshi Fujimoto and two other faculty members, along with several researchers and graduate students, are conducting research and development with the aim of realizing a clean and comfortable electric vehicle society.

Cooperation in Japan's first demonstration experiment of in-vehicle power supply

The University of Tokyo, along with Bridgestone Corporation, NSK Ltd., ROHM Co., Ltd., Toyo Electric Mfg. Co., Ltd., DENSO Corporation, Mitsui Fudosan Co., Ltd., SWCC Corporation, CARMATE Co., Ltd., and the Miyagi Laboratory at Chiba University (hereinafter referred to as "this research group"), has been conducting research on in-vehicle power supply systems since 2018.

On October 3, 2023, Japan's first "on-road charging demonstration experiment" was launched within Kashiwanoha Smart City. This experiment was conducted as part of the "Initiative to Develop On-Road Charging Technology for Electric Vehicles," a framework established by the University of Tokyo, Kashiwa City, other related organizations, and the Kashiwa ITS Promotion Council.

In this initiative, our company provides an RC-S actual vehicle Transient Bench to recreate slopes and driving environments. We are contributing to research aimed at optimizing driving routes using in-run power supply.
