Creating One-of-a-kind Technologies |
|
| |
|
Hitachi Appliance is actively undertaking measures for creating number-one
products by using one-of-a-kind technologies. Hitachi was the first in the
home appliances industry to introduce air conditioners equipped with PAM
control technology. This technology is currently contributing to high
efficiency and energy savings of products such as refrigerators, Eco Cute,
washing machines and microwave ovens. Additionally, we are continuously
developing innovative technologies. For example, the application of the
world's first highly efficient and reliable scroll compressors developed by
Hitachi are currently being expanded from room air conditioners to
commercial-use packaged air conditioners, as well as ice storage air
conditioning systems and Sokai Jyoshitsu building air conditioning systems
equipped with multiple functions such as heating, cooling, humidifying and
dehumidifying.

Conducting Research from User's Perspectives |

| It is important to carry out the development of electrical home appliances
that support people's daily life from the customer's point of view.
In addition to conducting verification from various angles that include user
friendliness and usability at the Lifestyle Research Center, we are also
meticulously carrying out monitoring tests in order to utilize such
information to develop future products.
