Electronic components will become the trend of Japanese cars

　　China economic weekly economic news (contributor Chen Yan) 2015 Shanghai auto show held at the Shanghai National Convention Center from April 22nd to April 29th, the show from the Shanghai auto show in the Japanese auto parts, through electronic to increase vehicle comfort and safety, which is an important development direction. After the electronics, auto parts are no longer a single component, but more of a module. The production of this kind of module needs the enterprise to have higher conformity technology, not be able to imitate simply. After the electronic components, so that the profitability of Japanese companies, the Japanese auto industry has further improved the guarantee.

　　After entering twenty-first Century, the automobile industry began to change a lot. Auto parts enterprises in the product design, began to pursue comfort, safety, in the use of energy, began to gradually get rid of the limitations of gasoline and diesel, to the electric transformation. Japanese cars, TOYOTA's annual output of 10 million units up and down. By the end of March 2015 2014 fiscal year, TOYOTA's total sales of nearly 26 trillion yen (about 1 trillion and 300 billion yuan), a profit of 2 trillion and 700 billion yen (about 140 billion yuan). TOYOTA's production, sales and profit margins, unique in the world's auto companies, which is inseparable from the Japanese auto parts manufacturing industry has the ability to produce technology.

Electronic pay more attention to vehicle safety

　　"The use of motor vehicles in the motor, there will be great room for development in the future. The increase in the use of electricity, but also brought new demand for batteries." During the Shanghai auto show, Hitachi Automotive Systems (Chinese) Co. Ltd. Research & Development Center master chief Watanabe Go says to the author.

　　From the whole car show, the electronic component is an important direction for future development.

　　Car navigation, audio, electronic car is visible. Hitachi automotive systems booth, have a kind of an orange, sitting in this car immediately shut the door, will show a variety of broadcast music from time to time off, listen to a violin music, make people feel that here is the music hall. Modern cars can satisfy the demands of people in acoustics.

　　The combination of navigation and the Internet is an indisputable result. Navigation is no longer just to indicate the direction of the destination to go, but also will be displayed on the screen in a timely manner on the road, in a timely manner to bypass the congested road, take a fast and efficient way to reach the destination. Through the voice service, people don't see the navigation situation, can focus on the road ahead.

　　However, the automotive electronics is not at this level. If the above mentioned in the emphasis on the comfort of the car, then from the Shanghai auto show, we can see more of the role of electronic security in the automotive play.

Reporters in the booth of Hitachi automotive systems, experience a car driver feeling. Racing car is faster than the speed and adverse reaction conditions, sharp turn, avoid obstacles and other essential driving skills. Do not use the integrated control system of Hitachi vehicles, the reporter drove the car to walk not far away and ran out of runway, and there have been other vehicles rub. But after using this system, the vehicle in the case of acceleration, can still be stable on the runway. Senior manager of Hitachi research and development center director Xie Jun told reporters: "the integrated control system of Hitachi vehicles, intelligent cockpit HMI, stereo camera, external environment sensor, so that the car before and after the party and the surrounding information can be timely treatment. This set of integrated control system can provide the function of auxiliary driving, in the same speed of the situation, deal with the risk of the action will be much less."

"The driver assistance system is the primary stage of automatic driving." Watanabe center long told reporters. Hitachi car system through the external environment sensor, as far as possible to avoid the car ran out of the road, the sensor can also be timely to pedestrians, obstacles and other judgments, to prevent the occurrence of accidents. With these, autopilot will have the basis for the realization of.

　　Another Japanese electronics company Panasonic, but also a great deal of time in the car safety. At the Shanghai auto show, Panasonic is trying to promote the company's full range of cameras, vehicle proximity alarm equipment, intelligent access system, etc.. In the car comfort, the Panasonic Corp will nano water ion generator, multi function car audio, mobile navigation equipment, such as the rear seat entertainment system mounted on a vehicle, so that visitors from the specific experience of automobile comfort concept.

Parts upgrade to a system

　　In recent years, the development of hybrid electric vehicles, plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, so that electronic component manufacturers to see their new opportunities in the automotive field.

　　In the Hitachi system's booth, can see is the frequency conversion machine, engine, motor drive current commutator regeneration etc.. As for the hybrid electric vehicle, using a variety of generators, coaxial slow starter, starter generator and so on, so it is hard to imagine that these are loaded in the car parts.

　　With the increase of power, let the battery in the car's role is becoming increasingly important. Watanabe Go took a look at the Hitachi car system lithium ion batteries and hybrid vehicles on the use of lithium ion batteries, plug-in hybrid use of lithium-ion batteries. The size of the laptop battery module, with a few can be driven into a ton of cars, it is difficult to imagine.
