Technology Transfer from Japan : The cases of Human F/A Support Engineering and ITS

抄録

Japan has been adopting new technology from abroad for many years, but the technology transfer from Japan was very rare. Many innovative technologies from foreign countries had been introduced to Japan and raised Japanese technology level very rapidly. In recent years the technology standard of Japan goes up to the world's highest level, and gradually technology transfer from Japan is seen to take place. In this paper recent technology transfer from Japan is discussed. The necessary conditions to be the sender of new technology are examined by taking some typical examples of innovative technologies such as Human F/A Support Engineering and Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS).
