| D次元へ。 | To the D dimension. |
| デジタルサウンド――それはテクノロジーがつくりあげた、ひとつの到達点。可視半導体レーザーというシャープの開発技術なくしては招来しえなかったコンパクトディスク時代。LSIや光(オプトエレクトロニクス)などの技術革新により、いちはやく着手、完成したデジタル録・再システム、DAT。そしてこれら高品位の基幹技術は、いまやすべてのオーディオ機器に息づいています。音楽のあるべき姿を求めて、シャープはD次元へ。 | Digital sound - a point of arrival that technology has built. The compact disc era could not have come about without SHARP's developed technology, the visible semiconductor laser. Through technological innovations in LSI and light (optoelectronics), the digital recording and playback system DAT was started on early and brought to completion. And these high-grade core technologies now live in all audio equipment. In search of how music ought to be, SHARP goes to the D dimension. |
| ニューライフ・ピープルとは情報化社会の暮し方をつくり出し、リードする新しい生活者です | New-Life People are new kinds of people who create the way of living in the information society and lead it |
