- Sony Corporate Info (https://www.sony.com/en/SonyInfo/sony_ai/)

Sony Group Corporation (Sony) engages in the development, design, manufacture, and sale of electronic equipment, instruments, devices, game consoles, and software for consumers, professionals and industrial markets

At its peak, it was dubbed as a "corporate octopus", for its sprawling tentacles from private insurance to chemicals to cosmetics to home shopping to a Tokyo-based French food joint, in addition its core businesses such as electronics and entertainment

It currently operates the following segments: Game and Network Services, Music, Pictures, Home Entertainment and Sound, Imaging Products and Solutions (healthcare), Mobile Communications, Semiconductors (image sensors, camera modules, and quantum tunneling), Financial Services (life insurance and banking), and Others

In 2021, the WIPO's annual review of the World Intellectual Property Indicators report ranked Sony's as 9th in the world for the number of patent applications published under the PCT System

With 55% market share in the image sensor market, Sony is the largest manufacturer of image sensors, the 2nd largest camera manufacturer, and is one of the world's leading in semiconductors

Sony and Indian powerhouse Zee Entertainment are projected to merge sometime in 2024 after new executive management is installed in both companies (https://t.me/QuantumStellarInitiative/29963)

Healthcare and Biotechnology

Sony has targeted medical, healthcare, and biotechnology business as a growth sector in the future. Since 2010 it has acquired numerous medical companies and, in 2013, Olympus and Sony created a JV to develop new surgical endoscopes with 4K resolution (or higher) and 3D capability called Sony Olympus Medical Solutions Inc. (Sony 51%, Olympus 49%)

In 2014, Sony, M3 and Illumina created a JV called P5 Inc for genome analysis service for research institutions and enterprises in Japan

Prediction One and Sony Network Communications released a paper in 2021 using their AI to create a prediction model for automated medical diagnistics (https://assets.cureus.com/uploads/original_article/pdf/61998/20210715-8536-ch13pb.pdf)

Robotics

Sony revived its robotics division in 2016 when it partnered with autonomous driving startup ZMP INC to establish an aerial surveillance and reconnaissance drone manufacturer named Aerosense. They unveiled their drone brand Airpeak in 2021, the smallest of its kind that can incorporate a Sony Alpha camera

In 2020, Sony launched their "Gastronomy Flagship Project″ (https://ai.sony/articles/sonyai003/) featuring an AI-powered recipe creation app, sous chef cooking robot, and a community co-creation Initiative

Imaging & Sensing Solutions

Sony's semiconductor business started in 1954 and 3 years later their employees invented a tunnel diode ("Esaki diode") used to discover the quantum tunneling effect in solids (https://t.me/QuantumStellarInitiative/26354), for which Esaki won the Nobel in Physics in 1973 (https://www.nobelprize.org/prizes/physics/1973/esaki/facts/)

As of 2020, Sony is the world's largest manufacturer of CMOS image sensors as its chips are widely used in digital cameras, tablet computers, smartphones, drones and more recently, self-driving systems in automobiles. Sony Semiconductor Solutions also features products like emerging memory storage and holographic display

In 2020, Sony launched the world's first intelligent vision sensors with AI edge computing capabilities for auto-filming, auto-framing, and AI-enhanced video

Sony established Sony Research to undertake "unprecedented disruptive research in Sensing, AI and Digital Virtual Spaces" (https://www.ai.sony/articles/sonyai019/) in April 2023

Education

Through Hyperledger Fabric (https://blockchain.sonyged.com/), Sony works with universities to make learning more immersive and interactive via Smart Campuses, NFTs and metaverses, and innovative smart devices such via its partnership with Emerge to create TVs capable of transmitting touch feedback and other sensory experiences (https://t.me/QuantumStellarInitiative/29962)

?️[Blockchain] will enable people to handle their own academic progress record, and to have control over how to improve their learning cycle. I believe this will change education as we know it, and make it substantially more efficient. In Japan, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications is investigating the effectiveness of educational blockchain technology as part of its Smart School Platform Demonstration Project. AI simulates the workings of the human brain, so it has a complementary relationship with blockchain, which accumulates data. Making the two inseparable should take society in a more prosperous direction?️
- Masaaki Isozu, President of Sony Global Education

EV and Batteries

In 2015, Sony invested $842k in ZMP INC, drawing speculations it is contemplating developing self-driving cars. In January 2020, Sony unveiled a concept electric car at CES, named Vision-S, where they also announced their goal of developing technology for the automotive sector, especially autonomous driving, sensors, and in-car entertainment

Sony and Honda launched a JV in 2022 called Sony Honda Mobility (SHM) for their EV partnership, which will deliver its first product around 2026

Humanitarian Missions

Sony has been working on projects such as:
- S.RIDE (https://www.sony.com/en/SonyInfo/sony_ai/taxi.html) (demand prediction) to optimize transportation
- Synecoculture (https://www.sony.com/en/SonyInfo/sony_ai/synecoculture.html) to artificially create agricultural ecosystems for cultivating a rich variety of crops while also enriching local biodiversity. They have conducted successful pilot tests in both Japan and sub-Saharan Africa (https://www.sonycsl.co.jp/tokyo/407/) 
- Sony Semiconductor Solutions America, tinyML Foundation, and City of San José announced the winners for the Pedestrian Safety Challenge Hackathon competition to reduce pedestrian-involved accidents (distracted driving, distracted walking, illegally crossing roadways) (https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/sony-semiconductor-solutions-concludes-pedestrian-safety-challenge-announces-winners-with-tinyml-foundation-and-the-city-of-san-jos%C3%A9-1032682421)

Blockchain & AI

On 11 September 2023, Sony Network Communications and Astar Network’s spin-off, Startale Labs, formed a JV to build a new Web3 blockchain called Sony Network Communications Labs (https://t.me/QuantumStellarInitiative/29965)

As a Polkadot parachain, Astar provides EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine) and WASM functionality, facilitating Sony dApps to more seamlessly bridge into Stellar

Sony Network Communications's corporate vision is “INFRASTRUCTURE of CHANGE — For all humanity” and the primary goal of their new JV is to "Connect Souls Across Generations"

Recently, Sony researchers uncover bias against skin with yellow hues in AI algorithms ( (https://www.msn.com/en-us/health/other/ai-bias-tests-gloss-over-a-crucial-aspect-of-skin-color-sony-research-claims/ar-AA1hGlNf)affecting (https://www.msn.com/en-us/health/other/ai-bias-tests-gloss-over-a-crucial-aspect-of-skin-color-sony-research-claims/ar-AA1hGlNf) East Asian, South Asian, Hispanic, and Middle Eastern people) (https://www.msn.com/en-us/health/other/ai-bias-tests-gloss-over-a-crucial-aspect-of-skin-color-sony-research-claims/ar-AA1hGlNf). They plan to use AI to propose new solutions (https://news.yahoo.com/sony-researchers-uncover-bias-against-230435654.html) to course correct generative models trained on false datasets

Sony's R&D lab (https://www.sony.com/en/SonyInfo/research/projects/blockchain/) is focused on connecting users and creators through communities, metaverses, tactile and sensory AR/VR devices, and exchanges via crypto, rights & licenses, and KYC services

Sony intends to use AIML, NLP, deep learning, behavior learning, data analytics, and Explainable AI (https://www.sony.com/en/SonyInfo/sony_ai/technology/) across electronics, music, gaming, movies, finance, and medicine. Sony's dedicated supercomputer (GAIA) (https://www.sony.com/en/SonyInfo/research/research-areas/ai-machine_learning/) will focus on 3 technologies:
- AI-Optimized Architecture
- Resource Management
- Large-Scale Deep Learning
It's aim is the ultra-acceleration of AI development and the creation of new ethical and moral values while also integrating “sData” training data
