FY2012 Major Achievements in Research & Development
Our SCiB™ rechargeable batteries have been adopted for use in the “ENE-
CHARGE” idling stop systems of Suzuki Co., Ltd.’s “Wagon R” and “Wagon R
Stingray.” The SCiB™ was selected on the strength of high ratings for long life and
fast charging performance (fast regenerative performance).
The hybrid drive’s integration of a 2.5-inch hard drive and NAND  ash memory
achieves high-level performance that delivers high speed read and write speeds.
Two models have been developed, o ering storage capacities of 1 terabyte (TB)
and 750 gigabytes (GB).
The combined cycle power generation system we will supply to Chubu Electric
Power Co., Ltd.’s Nishi Nagoya Thermal Power Plant combines an advanced gas
turbine with a high-e ciency steam turbine generator, and will realize the world’s
highest e ciency for a thermal power plant, 62% (lower heating value basis).
Achieves high magnetic force in the required temperature range but uses no
dysprosium, a rare earth mineral at risk of price hikes and unstable supply. The
magnet is ideal for the motors in automobiles, railway cars, machine tools and
elevators, which must be small, heat-resistant and offer high performance.
Development was conducted in part with grant aid from NEDO.

We have launched a service based on the concept of social network
services that enables users to share comments on the contents of TV
programs. Users can search for scenes from programs that are temporarily
stored using the “time-shift machine” function, and we hope this will
encourage a new way of enjoying TV that will spread through the cloud.

With a possible range of 160mm in one rotation, and new 320-slice Area Detector
CT (computed tomography) technology, this CT diagnostic system is easier to use
and requires lower exposures, making it possible to reduce doses by up to 90%
compared to older 16- and 64-slice systems.
