In recent years, "STEAM education" has rapidly spread in educational settings, increasing the importance of experimental environments and measurement technologies for experiential learning in science and technology. Among these, spectroscopic techniques that analyze substances and environments using light have gained attention. Not only in cutting-edge research fields such as spectroscopic measurement, laser experiments, and biosensing, but also in universities, technical colleges, and high schools, there has been an increase in experiments utilizing optical technologies. The foundation of these technologies is optical thin films (optical filters) that control the wavelength of light. Optical thin films significantly improve the accuracy of spectroscopic measurements and optical sensing by allowing only specific wavelengths to pass through or by blocking unwanted light. Furthermore, they hold potential as educational materials that enable intuitive understanding of the physics of light through phenomena such as interference and structural colors. 1.

The evolution of food tech goes beyond mere efficiency and automation. Alternative proteins, cultured meat, smart agriculture, food waste reduction, personalized nutrition design—what supports the forefront of these advancements is sensing technology that visualizes "invisible information." At the core of this is "light." Optical thin films are key components that read the state of food and raw materials non-contact, quickly, and with high precision by selectively transmitting, reflecting, or blocking specific wavelengths. We, Adachi New Industry Co., Ltd., propose co-creation with the food tech sector as a partner that selects, controls, and designs light, including environmental resistance. 1. Entering an era of "seeing" food quality through wavelengths 2. Advancements in "foreign substance inspection" and optical thin films 3. Co-creation with food tech companies! 4. Technical support from the conceptual stage Adachi New Industry Co., Ltd. integrates spectral design, film formation technology, and environmental durability evaluation, accompanying you from the conceptual stage to mass production implementation as a co-creation partner that supports food safety, quality, and experiential value. Shall we create next-generation food tech products together, starting from the design of light? For more details, please check our company website.

In the medical and healthcare fields, light has already become an indispensable infrastructure. From endoscopes, fluorescence observation devices, blood analyzers, pulse oximeters, and wearable vital sensors to regenerative medicine and phototherapy devices, optical control technologies such as "wavelength selection," "reflection control," "stray light suppression," and "high-sensitivity detection" are required in every scenario. However, in actual design settings, it cannot be said that there are many cases where equipment manufacturers and optical thin film manufacturers engage in sufficient discussions from the early stages. As a result, filters and mirrors are often "added later" in the optical system's post-processing, leaving room for improvements in S/N ratio, miniaturization, and low power consumption that should have originally been achieved. We will redefine the role of optical thin films in the medical and healthcare fields and explore the possibilities from the perspective of "functional co-creation" rather than just "material supply." 1. The essence of wavelength design in biosensing 2. How reflection and absorption control change the image quality of endoscopes and observation systems 3. Wearable medical devices and angle-dependent design 4. High-durability thin films in phototherapy and sterilization fields The option of co-creation - a proposal from Adachi New Industry Co., Ltd.

Sports are constantly evolving. The lightweighting of equipment, the high-strength of materials, form optimization through data analysis, and the high functionality of apparel—technological innovations for improving competitive performance are now spreading not only among top athletes but also across all sporting environments. In recent years, advancements in sensor technology and AI analysis have significantly shifted sports from "sensation" to "science." However, what underpins this transformation is, in fact, "light." Visibility, tracking, sensing, and presentation—all these aspects utilize light information, and it is optical thin film technology that influences their accuracy and comfort. Now, this "technology that controls light" is poised to unlock new possibilities in sports. It is not just a simple coating; it is an advanced spectral design technology that selects wavelengths, controls reflection, and blocks unwanted light. This technology enhances athletes' decision-making abilities, improves sensor accuracy, and serves as a foundational technology for optimizing the competitive environment itself. ◆ Enhancing athlete performance × Optical thin films ◆ Data sports × Optical filters ◆ Integration with biosensing ◆ Towards future sports devices For more details, please check our company website.
