e-motion modules
What’s this? It seems to be a demo car, doesn’t it? But oddly, there are only a few parts. This is the impression you might have. In fact, this exhibit shows NSK’s vision of the environmentally friendly and safe cars of the future.
Advanced Assist Steering II, Wheel Hub Motors, Ball Screw for Electric Brake Booster, and a New EV Drive System… Using an innovative technique combining narration and images on a transparent monitor, we will introduce the e-motion modules—made up entirely of original NSK technologies—making would could be complicated, simple, fun and easy to understand.
Advanced Assist Steering 2
This system automatically steers the vehicle when there is imminent danger of a collision. It has two key features.
First, when driver braking and steering are not going to be enough to avoid a collision, such as when a person or vehicle suddenly rushes out in front of the car, the system quickly senses the danger and automatically makes an appropriate maneuver to avoid the collision. Further, it quickly brings the unstable movement after avoiding the collision back into a stable driving condition.
Second, when the tires move suddenly, for instance when avoiding a collision, the safety steering mechanism restrains steering wheel movement to prevent the driver from accidentally making unsafe steering moves. We believe that these technologies will become indispensable for ensuring vehicle safety.
Thin Thrust Needle Bearing for Planetary Gear Side
Use of the world’s smallest rollers (diameter of 1 mm × 1.8 mm length, for planetary gears) means the measurements of peripheral components can remain unchanged as much as possible and enables replacement from the washer. We reduced the bearing torque by at least 70% compared to the washer. We also reduced the weight by about 50% by using plastic cages.
Stainless Bearing for Hydrogen Circulation Pump
We achieved longer service life, greater durability, and better hydrogen resistance than the conventional stainless steel (SUS440C) by using NSK’s proprietary stainless steel ES1.
High Reliability Seal Bearing for Electric Water Pump
We improved the seal performance by using three lips instead of the traditional two lips. Also, by using a seal material with coolant durability, we achieved at least five times greater water resistance than conventional seals.

A Seat that Senses a Passenger's Emotions (Ambient Seat)
If car seats could sense the emotions of their passengers and change the interior of the car to reflect those emotions, maybe people would like car seats even more...
This idea was born from Za Lab, a group of acute, young employees from our company who research seating. The seat measures brainwaves while individuals are relaxing or communicating with other passengers and changes color accordingly. We invite you to visit our booth and experience the future of seating.
zecOO Custom Seat
We bring the future one step closer through a collaboration with the electric motorcycle zecOO, created by designer Kota Nezu. We have added a mechanism that interlocks with the accelerator to gradually raise the back of the seat up. The seat even fully supports the driver's upper body during the rapid acceleration unique to the motorcycle's motor. Come and see its refined design and cutting-edge features.
Aibou Seat Ver. 2
The Aibou Seat (Buddy Seat) we exhibited in 2013 focused on a passenger's physical characteristics, making automatic adjustments to create his or her ideal driving position. However, this version shifts its focus to the inside of a passenger's body by featuring technology that senses biological information in order to monitor daily health information.
The basic concept is that muscular imbalance or deterioration results in poor posture. This is thought to be the cause of stiff shoulders and hip pain.
With an even greater focus on ideal posture, we are working to evolve the Aibou Seat so that it will tone antigravity muscles to create a healthy body.
[New Idea] Rear Seat "Escort Package"
This package delivers unprecedented hospitality technology to passengers from the time they enter the vehicle to the time they exit through its seats and door trim.
Cutting-edge Sports Seat for the Honda Access Honda Fit
We have further improved the seat's performance, enabling it to deliver a more secure fit and improved texture while still maintaining the safety and comfort of the original seat.

Visualized Things App
This App is equipped with a new safety mechanism for drivers.

While driving, we wanted another eye to see if a roof carrier is firmly attached or to monitor a baby in the rear seat, or any similar application. A variety of car accessories incorporating these sensors can transmit this visual information to a smart device. This exhibit visualizes this concept with the exhibiting roof box, roof carrier, child car seat and engine starter combined into one App.
