– HUD Screen Remote Control Touch Panel (F1 Sensor + HAPTIC™ Reactor)

– Various switches (TACT Switch™, Encoders, ThumbPointer™)

  A demonstration envisaging the area around a vehicle’s cockpit featuring numerous exhibits of control devices used particularly by the driver. Visitors will be able to experience the operating feel and operating sound that Alps Electric has refined over many years.

<Exhibit Highlight: IoT Sensor Network Modules>

  Sensor network modules for collecting a variety of data, essential for IoT business creation. Integrating low-power, high-precision and compact sensors with a Bluetooth® communication module, these products are capable of acquiring pressure, temperature, humidity, ambient light and other environmental data, as well as six-axis (geomagnetism + acceleration) sensing.

  A special app (for Android) is available for viewing data and changing sensing settings on a smartphone or tablet. In addition, radio certification has already been acquired for various regions around the world, allowing smooth, low-cost progression to demonstration testing.

  At electronica China 2018, we will present actual application examples in areas including abnormality detection in factory facilities and logistics management.
