Interview with Murata Masaru, CEO of Murata, China: Our robot is a technical card

Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Murata") is a well-known manufacturer of electronic components in Japan. It started with ceramic capacitors and has a history of more than 70 years. In 2005, Murata assembled its cutting-edge electronic technology and developed a robot capable of riding Murata urchins, including a gyro sensor for posture control, a Bluetooth module for receiving and receiving commands, and a translucent ceramic for an eye camera. Lens, ultra-thin piezoelectric speaker, battery device, power supply module, etc., and equipped with electronic circuit capacitors, EMI suppression filters and many other common electronic components. In combination with a high degree of control technology, circuit design technology, and software development, Murata urchins can ride bikes very skillfully, such as riding on the slope of a beam equal to the width of the wheel, and they can stay in the ground even if they stop.

Murata's urchins have received a lot of attention and evaluation in various countries of the world since they were released, and they are regarded as "Better INVENTIONS 2006" by Time Magazine. However, Murata did not intend to sell Murata urchins as a product, but used it as a card showing Murata's R&D level.

Afterwards, Murata announced the launching of the unicycle's Murata Shindo in 2008 and the 2014 Cheerleaders who could stand on the ball. Similarly, these robots exist to demonstrate Murata’s current level of product and technology research and development.

At the recent ELEXCON 2016 Shenzhen International Electronics Show, Murata showed Murata urchins and arranged performances. Chinese President Maruyama Yingyi accepted an exclusive interview with Lei Feng. He not only introduced the latest technological development results of Murata's urchins, but also described the future application of these technologies. Although robots have developed rapidly in the past two years, in the eyes of Maruyama Hideyoshi, smart cars are more promising.

The following are the full texts of the interviews. There are amendments and word order adjustments that do not affect the original intent:

Lei Feng Network (search "Lei Feng Net" public concern) : What robots have the latest R & D results?

Maruyama Eiji: This demonstration of the robot is mainly intended to demonstrate our application of technology in the car, there are three major blocks, one is the ultrasonic sensor, and its automatic obstacle avoidance function can be applied to the car's parking, can be When reversing, real-time monitoring of the reversing distance and the distance with the surrounding obstacles; a gyro sensor, combined with the acceleration sensor, can make the body more stable, when driving, such as when turning will be more secure; the other is Wireless communication module, it will be applied to the car, we are pushing the Bluetooth plus Wi-Fi module.

The products just introduced are not because of urchins, but the value of urchins is that Murata has such a technology and product. It can not only be displayed in the image of a robot, but also can be used in our actual life. To. So instead of bringing in the latest robots, we delivered the latest products and technologies that can be applied to cars. The functions and performance of the products and technologies on this robot are now up-to-date.

Lei Feng network: So you are more optimistic about the automotive industry, why? What are the developments in this area now?

Maruyama Eiji: Murata's main business is mobile phones, but now the mobile phone market has become saturated. We must also develop some of the more potential market, optimistic about the automotive industry, one is because the demand for cars is relatively large, one is Consumer demand for automotive electronics is also relatively large, such as entertainment and safety requirements, then the demand for electronic components is also growing.

We have just formulated a new three-year plan in May. Automotive electronics, medical care, and the Internet of Things are the main directions for our future development. Among them, automotive electronics will be our main area of ​​push. At present, we are already doing the automotive electronics market globally. Its share of Murata's business has continued to grow. It is now about 15%. In China, we are also cooperating with a number of auto companies. Now there is a clear and gradual progress. Before, everyone used to call to ask what this is and now they will come to negotiate cooperation with us.

Lei Fengwang: The robot has only been developing obviously in China in the past two years. However, it has been developing relatively fast in Japan. What do you think of robots?

Maruyama Eiji: As you said, the robot is better developed in Japan, but after all, its demand is limited. For Murata, its sales will not be too large, so it is not in our future. In the planning of the year. Of course, this is not to say that we will not be doing the robot market. We will do it if we need it. For example, industrial robots may also use our sensors, but they will not invest too much like car medical.

Lei Feng Network: You have been in China for many years. In your opinion, what kind of changes have taken place in China's component market? Has China's component companies formed competitive pressure on you?

Maruyama Eiji: Very straightforward, I do not know if it will harm China, but frankly speaking, China has support for chips and semiconductors in the national policy. However, for components, we cannot see a big support, so China’s Component companies are more of their own development. Judging from the history of development, Japan has a long history of development on the basic components, so it has accumulated technology, then there will be advantages in doing more advanced things on this accumulation, from Japanese manufacturers and Chinese manufacturers. Looking at it, there are still some technological gaps.

China’s learning ability is very strong. There are indeed significant improvements in components and components over the years. However, Japan can make components very small. On such small components, China’s competitive advantage is not obvious. Then we need What we do is continue to develop smaller products to keep ourselves ahead. In this case, we have fewer competitors to compete with us. Competing with China on larger components is certainly a fight because they have a price advantage, but they are still better. We still have our own advantages in sophisticated products.

Of course, there is a limit to the size of the components. It is not necessary to do too small. Therefore, we are also making preparations in these years, such as acquiring companies in the supply chain. Just like last month, we were talking to Sony about purchasing lithium. Battery business things. In other words, we will retain the advantages of technology, while adding other raw materials or other technologies, so that our corresponding market will be more extensive.
