Tokyo Motor Show 2005
The Company presented a variety of spark plugs (mainly iridium spark plugs) and sensors for automotive uses which take into consideration environmental issues.
-Plugs for gasoline engines (Factory installed)
High Ignition Iridium Spark Plug
Upgraded version of the current iridium plug with greater ignition capability. Two types were presented, namely the projected angle type and the DFE (double fine electrode) type, and their application depends on the intended use. These plugs are for gasoline engines.
Iridium Long Reach M10 Spark Plug
Almost the same level of performance as the current M14, but in a smaller package. These are for use in gasoline engines. Their advantages include:
-Plug hole caliber was able to be made more narrow.
-Valve holding angle was able to be made more narrow.
-Valve caliber was able to be enlarged.
-Water-jacket was able to be expanded.
Iridium Hybrid Spark Plug
Under normal conditions sparks are generated between main electrodes, but when they smolder, sparks occur between side electrodes and burn off all carbon, so they are highly effective against pollution (as their insulation properties don't dissipate quickly). These are being used in direct-injection diesel engines as well as in high output engines.

-Starts to activate within 8 seconds of the engine being ignited, further improving on conventional FLO (U) types.
-Sub-feedback system for use by downstream catalyzer in response to OBD determination.
-Highly water-proof in responding to installation of catalyzers downstream.

Non-Resonant Knock Sensor
-High revolution control is possible due to excellent response performance.
-The same component is compatible with a variety of engines by merely changing only the band bass filter because of its flat frequency properties.
-Long term warranty

Air Quality Sensor
-Equipped with two types of sensor elements, one for gasoline engines and the other for diesel engines, the sensor has a high degree of detection capability.
-Various auxiliary functions such as one that reduces the frequency of errors in detecting noise, other than gas.
-Automatic ventilation control systems for car air-conditioners.

Oil Level Sensor (still in R&D stage)
-Detects water level by electrical capacitance, and thus eliminates moving parts while heightening reliability.
-Linear detection of oil level and temperature is possible.
-Quick to start up (about one second)
-It is possible to monitor electrical capacitance changes caused by deteriorating oil.
-These sensors monitor when oil changes are need and when oil needs to be added.
