Medium voltage multi-level IGBT drives are smallest in class
The HIVECTOL-HVI-E2 series has been introduced by Hitachi, to expand its product line of HIVECTOL-HVI medium voltage multi-level IGBT drives, which contribute to energy conservation in process plants, as well as improvements in productivity and quality. Sale of E2 series, the smallest in class, will start on October 1st.
Image analysis system to detect signs of facilities failures
In collaboration with Daicel Corporation, Hitachi has developed an image analysis system that supports quality improvements and increased productivity by detecting signs of operational failures in production line facilities and deviations in worker activities on the front lines of manufacturing.
Solar thermal power system undergoes verification testing
Verification testing of the sunlight and thermal energy collecting performance of a unique solar thermal power system has been launched by Mitsubishi Hitachi Power Systems at dedicated facilities newly completed within its Yokohama Works. The testing will be conducted through March 2017 under contract from the Ministry of the Environment as a FY2016 project under its "Low Carbon Technology Research and Development Program."
Reliability of high speed trains sustained through gearbox bearings
More than 1,300 axlebox bearings and gearbox bearing sets have been successfully delivered to Hitachi Rail Europe’s flagship train maintenance centre in Ashford, by Schaeffler (UK). As part of an on-going bogie overhaul programme of Hitachi Rail Europe’s Class 395 ‘Javelin’ high speed trains further deliveries are planned this year.
AI technology enables logical dialogue in Japanese
Hitachi announced that it has developed a basic AI technology that analyses huge volumes of Japanese text data on issues that are subject to debate, and presents in Japanese both affirmative and negative opinions on those issues together with reasons and grounds. In this research, Hitachi applied deep learning to the process of distinguishing sentences representing reasons and grounds for opinions, eliminating the need for a dedicated program to ...
Hitachi adopts Cadence AMS model-based methodology
Cadence Design Systems has announced that Hitachi has adopted a Cadence Analog Mixed-Signal (AMS) model-based methodology and tools to shorten the verification cycle for one of its largest mixed-signal design projects. By upgrading its previous transistor-level methodology to a model-based methodology, Hitachi successfully accelerated mixed-signal verification for this project by 160X and reduced full-chip simulation time to 30 minutes.
Vehicle smart key's could feature alcohol detection device
Hitachi and Honda Motor's subsidiary Honda R&D have announced they have successfully developed a prototype of a portable alcohol detector that is tamper-resistant as it can distinguish human breath from alternative gases and that can be integrated into smart key.
Robotics IT platform developed for customer services
Hitachi has announced the development of 'EMIEW3', a humanoid robot, and its 'remote brain' robotics IT platform. EMIEW3, capable of autonomously approaching customers requiring assistance, was developed to provide necessary services and guidance in stores and public facilities.
Wireless technology could revolutionise airport systems
A partnership between NASA and Hitachi is testing a system known as Aircraft Access to System Wide Information Management (SWIM), to wirelessly send aviation information. The test was recently conducted on an FAA Bombardier Global 5000 test aircraft taxiing 60 to 70 miles per hour on the Cleveland Hopkins International Airport runway.
