Artificial intelligence (AI) made possible byadvanced, high-speed information processing
technology is expected to overcome labor
shortages, improve operational efficiency, andincrease the value provided to customers. Vacuum
technology is used in the production of thesemiconductors and electronic devices that
support this innovation.

Development ofIoT technology has
improved access to
medical care. Highquality telemedicine
using high-definition
displays is becomingavailable. Vacuum
technology is also
used to meetgrowing medical
needs, such as forvaccine production
and R&D of sterile
pharmaceuticalproducts.
