The automobile industry is changing rapidly with CASE (connected, autonomous, shared, electric) and other new technological trends. In order to respond to these changes, Toyoda Gosei is seeking to achieve greater added value of products with the integration of sensors and other electronic components into the plastic and rubber parts that are its core technologies. For this aim, the development of high functional materials that can accommodate electronics technology is an urgent task.

With this investment, Toyoda Gosei will combine Tryeting’s AI technology with the knowledge in materials design it has built up over many years. The ability to quickly simulate large numbers of material compounding patterns will accelerate the development of materials with superior functionality, such as new materials for LiDAR2 and other sensors.

The investment amount is JPY50m (US$33.91m).
Light Detection and Ranging, a sensing method that measures distance and direction by the time it takes emitted infra-red laser light to reflect off of an object and return.
