Female College Students, Here Is A Tech Connection

January 10, 2023,

Technology is the future.

Technology is here to stay.

Technology keeps the world humming and churning, right now.

The good news is that young women are becoming a part of that growth, movement and innovation.

The informative team at news.vmware.com share, “According to research by Deloitte, large global technology firms, on average, will reach nearly 33% overall female representation in their workforces in 2022, an increase of two percentage points from 2019. This increase, though small, is indicative of real progress.”

Good to know.

According to the National Science Foundation, women comprise 43 percent of the U.S. workforce for scientists and engineers (S&E) under 75 years old.

For those under 29 years old, women comprise 56% of the science and engineering workforce.

Of scientists and engineers seeking employment, 50% under 75 are women, and 49% under 29 are women. About one in seven engineers are female.

Much of what propels success in any industry is connections.

If you are a female college student studying in the tech industry or desiring to be a part of it, there is a person you might want to contact. Take a look.

Exhibiting advanced energy-related technologies and in-vehicle solutions that may help contribute to carbon neutrality

LAS VEGAS, Dec. 27, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Sharp Corporation (Sharp) will participate in CES 2023 in Las Vegas, Nevada, United States, to be held from January 5 to 8, 2023. CES is one of the largest and most influential tech events in the world. Focusing on ESG fundamentals, Sharp will exhibit advanced technologies and products under the four umbrellas of New Energy, Automotive, AR/VR, and TV.

Exhibit Highlights

The latest New Energy technologies that may help contribute to carbon neutrality

Sharp will unveil for the first time outside of Japan the LC-LH (Liquid and Crystal Light Harvesting), an indoor photovoltaic device developed by integrating dye-sensitized solar cells and the company’s long-cultivated LCD technology. Sharp will also exhibit perovskite solar cells, which are attracting attention as the next generation of solar cells. Because they are thin, lightweight, and flexible, Sharp expects they could be used in a greater variety of products, which could contribute to even wider use of solar power.

Advanced Automotive devices that support safe and environmentally conscious drivingSharp will introduce the Passenger Information Display utilizing viewing angle control. By controlling the viewing angle, the driver will not be able to see the display on the passenger-side, so they can concentrate on driving. Sharp will also exhibit a prototype of a Driver Monitoring System. A camera module integrated within the display keeps an eye on the driver. In addition, Sharp will show a compound photovoltaic module with the world’s highest*² conversion efficiency, which could be installed on vehicles such as EVs, as well as used in aerospace and aviation applications.
Various devices and head-mounted displays (HMD) for AR/VR

Sharp will exhibit for the first time an ultra-lightweight HMD prototype for VR equipped with its latest devices, such as an ultra-high-resolution display, ultra-high-speed autofocus camera, and ultra-compact proximity sensor. Sharp will also exhibit more new and exciting components including: the world’s thinnest*³ ultra-compact camera module, a distance sensor that helps HMD wearers with object detection and collision avoidance, and more AR/VR related devices that could provide users with a safe, comfortable, and immersive augmented reality experience.

Flagship AQUOS XLED TV model for the global marketSharp will exhibit the flagship AQUOS XLED TV model for the global market. Visitors can experience a new generation of images with outstanding brightness and color expression created by mini LED backlighting and quantum-dot technology. In addition, Sharp will unveil a prototype of one of the world’s largest*⁴ 120-inch model*⁵ for the first time.

■ Exhibit Highlights (Subject to Change)

Booth Area	Exhibits
New Energy	LC-LH Indoor Photovoltaic Device [exhibited for the first time outside of Japan] By combining dye-sensitized solar cells, which according to Sharp can convert indoor light into electricity with high efficiency, and Sharp’s LCD technology, this device achieves power generating efficiency approximately double that of typical solar cells used in clocks and calculators. Applicable not only to a variety of small appliances, it can also help reduce environmental impacts by replacing disposable batteries. Perovskite Solar Cell [prototype] Thin, lightweight, and flexible next-generation solar cells with high power generation efficiency that can be manufactured at low cost with low energy consumption. It makes installation possible in places that were previously difficult due to problems such as load capacity and configuration.
Automotive	Passenger Seat Monitor Using Viewing Angle Control Display (Passenger Information Display) [exhibited for the first time outside of Japan] Proprietary backlight technology controls the viewing angle of the display so that the image on the passenger seat monitor cannot be seen from the driver’s seat while driving, helping to ensure safe and comfortable driving. Driver Monitoring System [prototype; exhibited for the first time] A camera module integrated into the dashboard display detects the driver’s line of sight, head position and orientation, and eye blink pattern to assess driver status. Drowsiness can also be detected. Click Display [exhibited for the first time outside of Japan] A newly developed display that combines a highly sensitive pressure sensor and haptics technology. Arrow keys, volume control buttons, and the like can be formed with convex or concave shapes. Smooth touch operation similar to smartphones, plus operability with a click feeling like physical keys can be achieved on the same display. Supports smooth and easy operation of car navigation systems, air conditioners, audio systems, and the like. Technology that enables tactile feedback to be obtained through vibrations and other motions. Automotive Solar Cells [exhibited for the first time outside of Japan] In addition to lightweight and flexible compound solar cells of a practical size that have achieved the world’s highest conversion efficiency of 32.65%^*6, Sharp will introduce silicon-based solar cell modules for automobiles. Proposed applications include the aerospace and aviation fields, such as artificial satellites, which require high efficiency and light weight, and vehicles such as EVs.
AR/VR	Head-Mounted Display (HMD) [prototype; exhibited for the first time] Sharp will exhibit advanced devices such as an ultra-high-resolution display, an ultra-high-speed autofocus camera module (using a polymer lens), and an ultra-lightweight HMD prototype for VR equipped with an ultra-compact proximity sensor.
