The PCM-D1 is a linear PCM recorder that was developed in response to user demand for those who wished to have a recorder with better recording performance than that of DAT recorders commonly used by professionals in the broadcasting and music industries.

This product is manufactured using advanced digital technology, and yet it retains an analog touch, so as to impart a sense of familiarity and ease of use.

Processed titanium is used for the body to strengthen rigidity and create a unique sense of superior quality.

For the best recording environment, user friendliness was pursued in all aspects, resulting in a successful integration of unique styling and superior functionality.

The VPL-ES3/EX3 is an entry-level, 2000 lumens data projector. While being a versatile device that fits into every scene, the design especially takes into consideration the unit’s frequent use in classrooms or other educational venues, and used a shape that is neither angular nor rounded, but is a universal, gentle shape that is easy to hold like a basket. The flat top surface eliminates all frills, where major switches are laid out in an iconic and easy-to-operate layout. The subdued warm colors blend harmoniously not only with office furniture, but also with classrooms and other spaces with wooden furnishings.

The COM-1 is a compact mobile device that enables users to access the Internet via a wireless LAN connection, enabling website browsing and communication via chat or Internet phone. The design emphasizes a casual look rather than the business tool style of most mobile phones and PDAs. With the motif of two circles brought together like the infinity symbol, the design's rounded shapes fit naturally into the hands. Offsetting the casual look, a sliding-type full keyboard is incorporated. The coloring adds a touch of freshness and fun just right for a communication tool.

The SDM-G96D is an LCD computer display featuring a "rising design," where the form seamlessly expresses a rising line integrated with the keyboard. The inner sides of the frame are slanted inward, where the display panel and the speaker unit fit in. This basic structure is shared by the two models - with and without speakers - while setting off the distinctiveness of each design. The switches are discreetly positioned at the bottom edge of the screen panel, so that all of the user's attention goes to the on-screen images.

The CDX-HS70MW is a splashproof audio player for boats, jacuzzis, etc. The designer used round windows as the iconic motif for the product to harmonize with the round gauges in most boat cockpits. Large, easy-to-press buttons and easy-to-hold knobs facilitate error-free operation even on wave-tossed boats. Displays are large and the buttons glow red, to ensure high visibility even under the glaring sunlight at sea.
