【若林秀樹教授のコメント一部抜粋】
“Japan has to make clear why it needs a strong semiconductor industry,” said Hideki Wakabayashi, a professor of technology management at Tokyo University of Science and a key member of METI’s semiconductor strategy panel. He argues that Japan’s semiconductor industry still has strengths, such as automotive chips and those specializing in power management, which could be used to help the rest of the world achieve the shift to electric vehicles and the “low-carbon economy.”
Semiconductors are important components in cars and will be more so in the future, Wakabayashi predicts. Graphic chips and image sensors are currently used only in smartphones and computer games, but they will be mounted on cars in the future as they become more connected and autonomous, he says. “This is a market Japan must cover,” he said. “Without semiconductors, Japan cannot make cars if they want to.”
