Information
Technology

Cameras are moving on from film to digital; televisions are leaving behind
cathode-ray tubes in favor of LCDs; and cassette tape players have given way
to portable digital music players. The adoption of digital technology in home
electrical appliances such as these is transforming people’s daily lives for the
better. This change is being accomplished by advances in the technologies
used to manufacture such devices as semiconductors, optical glass lenses,
LCD panels and HDDs. Hoya, through its Information Technology business,
contributes significantly to this technological revolution.
