TRANSCRIPT
We at DENSO have a mission, as
stated in our Philosophy: Contribute
to a better world by creating value
together with a vision for the future.
Tackling that mission is more
important than ever.
The world’s population will exceed
eight billion people by 2025, and
global emissions of carbon dioxide
will exceed the amount that the
Earth can absorb by more than
threefold. The continuing growth
in vehicle ownership is a factor,
of course, in that output. It also
presents other challenges, including
an increase in traffi c accidents. We
need to maximize the convenience
and other benefi ts of motor
transport in ways that minimize the
drawbacks.
Our Long-term Policy articulates a
shared commitment by all DENSO
employees to optimize our social
impact in all our operations. The
Long-term Policy covers the 10
years to 2020. It calls for us to
step-up our efforts to preserve
environmental quality and to ensure
safety while continuing to provide
people everywhere with the comfort
and convenience of driving.
In non-automotive operations,
we are working to improve
the quality of life by deploying
technologies nurtured in our
automotive operations as well as
completely new technologies. Those
technologies include advances in
home energy management systems
and in health maintenance and
medical care.
At DENSO—all 150,000 of us
worldwide—are working in the spirit
expressed in our Long-term Policy’s
slogan: Protecting Lives, Preserving
the Planet, and Preparing a Bright
Future for Generations to Come.
Protecting Lives, Preserving the Planet,
and Preparing a Bright Future for
Generations to Come
Automotive At DENSO, we work to improve the three
basic functions of the automobile: moving,
turning, and stopping. In addition, we
strive to enhance the driving experience for
people worldwide. This means minimizing
the adverse effects of vehicles, such as
environmental degradation and traffi c
accidents, while providing the convenience,
the comfort, and the other benefi ts of
motor transport.
As a leading automotive supplier, we
strive to help shape a world where
people, the environment, and cars
coexist in harmony. We are an automotive
industry leader in R&D spending,
allocating approximately 9 percent of our
revenue to research and development.
In 2015, this totaled 399.3 billion yen
(US$3.5billion). This supports the work
of our engineers who, day after day,
conduct R&D and product design at our
technical centers around the world.
Continuous innovation to build a sustainable
automotive society

When manufacturing the
nozzles of injectors, there’s
an allowable gap of just one
micron*. That’s 1/60 the
width of a human hair. A gap
any bigger than this results in
a loss of the airtight seals. A gap any smaller prevents the
injector from operating smoothly.
After many trial and error, our engineers and technicians
worked together to overcome this challenge. They
developed a micron-machining technology of fl owing clay
mixed with micro-gain whetstones. The main reason for
this success was our technicians’ miraculous ability to
detect by sight and
touch differences
of less than one
micron.

environmentally-friendly
vehiclesDENSO developed a new fuel cell monitoring unit, pressure
sensor, and hydrogen-charging electronic control unit
(ECU) in 2014 using technologies from developing hybrid
vehicle components. Our products and technologies such
as power control unit, cooling module and cooling pump
are used in “Mirai,” Toyota Motor Corporation’s fuel cell
vehicle.
Common rail systems exhibit revolutionary environmental
performance by delivering jets of ultra-fine, ultra-high
pressure fuel into diesel engine combustion chambers for
complete fuel combustion. Introduced in 2013, DENSO’s
diesel common rail fuel injection system has an injection
pressure of 2,500 bar, helping increase fuel efficiency by
up to 3 percent while also reducing particulate matter (PM)
by up to 50 percent and nitrogen oxides (NOx) by up to 8
percent.

Striving for Ultimate Effi ciency in All We Do to Reduce CO2
DENSO creates products that work to improve performance and preserve the environment. DENSO’s gasoline/diesel
engines, hybrid/electric vehicles and other powertrain products such as fuel cell vehicles aim to reduce CO2 emissions.
For gasoline/diesel engines, we develop technologies to improve fuel combustion effi ciency and create cleaner emissions,
making internal combustion engines more effi cient. For hybrid/electric vehicles, we aim to provide small, light, and cost-
effective products to improve fuel economy and expand the use of hybrid/electric vehicles. We apply our technical
knowledge from developing hybrid vehicle components to improve reliability and use of fuel cell vehicles.
We also strive to make cars environmentally–friendly throughout their lifecycle. Our activities include: Making “Clean
Factories” to minimize emissions and hazardous materials used in our production processes; reduce the use of natural
resources and environmentally hazardous substances, and improve recyclability of components.

Safety
For an accident-free society where drivers, passengers, and pedestrians can have peace of mindDriving a car brings joy and convenience. However, as long as humans are driving, we cannot prevent all driving
errors.
DENSO combines high-precision sensors, Human Machine Interface, and communication technologies to develop
active safety products for preventing collisions and passive safety products for protecting the driver, passengers, and
pedestrians by minimizing the impact of the collisions when accidents occur. Furthermore, DENSO accelerates the
technology development of advanced driving support to keep the driver away from danger and automated driving.
Safety
Safety technology demonstrations at ITS World Congress 2014 in Detroit
DENSO is working globally with governments and
companies from different fi elds to test advanced driving
support systems on public roads.
At the 21st World Congress on Intelligent Transport
Systems in Detroit held in September 2014, DENSO
presented safety technology demonstrations. By
communicating the position data of the lead vehicle,
the follow vehicle demonstrated various scenes such as
starting, stopping, and changing lanes while automatically
following the car ahead even without a lane-separating
white line.
In Japan, we executed tests on public roads to evaluate
technologies to support and minimize the burden of
drivers. A public road test was done in 2014 in Aichi
prefecture. DENSO’s goal with public road testing is to
identify, analyze, and solve real-life problems that do not
occur on test courses.
Testing technology on public roadsSensor fusions contribute
to an advanced driving
assistance system
The head-up display (HUD) is a technology that takes the
vehicle speed, various critical warnings, and other information
needed in driving and displays it on the windshield. This
allows the driver to get information quickly while driving,
without having to make large movements in the line of sight.
This provides the driver with greater safety and assurance
and is expected to help reduce accidents.
DENSO is working toward commercializing the TFT* liquid
crystal HUD in 2017. Aiming to improve the visibility, we plan
to produce about 20 inch (50.8cm) models that will be the
world's largest HUD for use in cars.
DENSO's strength is our capability to incorporate our
car navigation systems and image-sensing technologies
to the new HUD technology which will provide "turn-by-
turn guidance" using arrows, warnings when the distance
between the vehicle and the car in front is too close, and
other technologies and functions.

"Turn-by-Turn Guidance" indicates the driver's
path with arrows
Arrow length and color call the driver's attention to the decreasing
space between the vehicle and the car in front of it
To avoid traffi c accidents, technologies that sense what is
happening around the vehicle are key. However, that is not
an easy task. Roads and traffi c situations vary by country and
regions. We need a combination of sensing technologies to
accurately differentiate pedestrians, animals, cars, and things.
DENSO developed millimeter-wave radar and a vision
sensor, both of which help drivers avoid collision and reduce
their physical damage by sensing obstacles in front of the
driver’s vehicle and following the lead vehicle while keeping a
predetermined distance from the car ahead.
We also worked with our customers to develop and
manufacture automatic braking systems using the laser radar
sensor, which is less expensive than the millimeter-wave radar
sensor. This product
helps make safety
systems possible for
smaller vehicles.

ComfortCold Storage Evaporator
DENSO technologies ensure
environmental performance
and comfortA vehicle’s air conditioner cycle runs on power from the engine. The stop/
start function thus interrupts the supply of cooled air, and the temperature in
the vehicle interior rises. Our challenge was to fi nd a way to keep drivers and
passengers comfortable without increasing fuel consumption and carbon
dioxide output. Our answer was the DENSO Cold Storage Evaporator.
An evaporator exchanges heat between warm air and cold refrigerant to
supply cooled and dehumidifi ed air. Our evaporator contains cold-storage
material that can retain a low temperature. The air conditioning system cools
the cold-storage material while running on power from the engine, and the
material serves as coolant during the engine stop.

You can search your destinations in your favorite compatible apps on
your mobile devices and send it to compatible in-vehicle navigation
systems with one tap on the devices. It eliminates time and effort to type-
in the destinations on your navigation system before you start driving.
With NaviBridge, you can also share your location and searched
destinations with your family and friends via e-mail and Social networking
service (SNS). It is a handy app for a meet-up.
DENSO has been developing and manufacturing car navigation systems
and technologies for more than 30 years. By taking full advantage of
its expertise, DENSO will continue to enhance convenience for more
users by providing services that connect car navigation systems with
smartphones.
Towards a society in which everyone can enjoy their “moving space” and their time in itRegardless of how extreme conditions outside the vehicle may be, we want the cabin interior to remain a calm, comfortable space.
That way, we can realize the usefulness of the vehicle and enjoy driving to the fullest.
As a leading manufacturer of automotive air conditioners, DENSO continues to spur advanced climate control technology in pursuit
of that “quality sense” that allows the driver and all passengers to truly enjoy this moving space and the time they spend in it.

Convenience
For a world of luxurious drivingallowing smooth, stress-free movementDENSO anticipates those features that are likely to prove convenient, and then goes on to create products incorporating these features.
Examples include meters with superior visibility to reduce driving stress, anti-theft systems that utilize information and communications
technologies, car navigation systems that allow vehicle occupants to enjoy a wide variety of entertainment news and information, and
more. When it comes to convenience, we continue to provide new products using a broad range of DENSO technology.
