Realization of safe, secure, comfortable, and sustainable innovation society by advanced optronics technology

Headquarters of Hamamatsu Knowledge Cluster, Shizuoka prefecture, Japan Hamamatsu Optronics Cluster Initiative

The Hamamatsu Optronics Cluster Initiative intends to integrate businesses, institutes, and researchers in the field of optronics. Such integration will help foster an environment conducive to the creation of new business enterprise. At its core, this large-scale repository of art and knowledge will encompass the Greater Hamamatsu Area and will incorporate the east Mikawa region extending around the City of Toyohashi in Aichi Prefecture. It will also include other advanced areas in both domestic and overseas regions.

OPTRONICS CLUSTER OPTRONICS Potential of the Greater Hamamatsu Area Vision The Greater Hamamatsu Area is located 240km The Hamamatsu Optronics Cluster is the driving force southwest of Tokyo and is blessed with a balmy climate behind promoting research and development in the field and much natural beauty. The area has a unique local of optoelectronics and supporting the creation of new cultural spirit referred to as 'Yaramaika' in Japanese, industry. Our aim is to create more value within a chain which means 'Go for it!' or 'Just do it!' in English. This of innovative technologies and products with a focus on medical technologies, agribusiness, biotechnology, spirit encourages people to tackle all challenges and it transportation, machinery, musical instruments, and especially thrives in the technology sector. It is evident textile industries. by the number of internationally renowned companies which have roots in Greater hamamatsu Area. The most notable successes are in the fields of transportation, Transportation machinery and machinery, and musical instruments. In addition to the mechanical component global companies, these fields include numerous state- of-the-art business entities and R&D enterprises. In this Optronics industry area, academic research institutions including Shizuoka Musical Medical University (Faculties of Engineering and Information, Core technology : optelectronics equipment, instruments, Agriculture, the Research Institute of Electronics), the Hamamatsu Textile Imaging, Sensing, Biotechnology University School of Medicine, The Hamamatsu Industrial ICT, Nanotechnology, etc. Research Institute of Shizuoka Prefecture, various R&D companies possessing advanced technologies, and other public testing and research organizations, have been Electrical and electronic equipment, Musical instruments working together in order to develop new technologies and products. Local industry organizations such as the Hamamatsu Chamber of Commerce and Industry and the organization for Hamamatsu Technopolis are closely tied together to provide substantial support and increase cooperation between industry, universities and local government. Toyohashi City is in the east Mikawa region of Aichi Prefecture and the University of Toyohashi serves as a core institute in this area. It is geographically close to the greater Hamamatsu area. Hamamatsu and Toyohashi are jointly promoting the Industrial Cluster Project.
