In manufacturing and product development, it is necessary for us to consider the global environment and resources for development purposes, to have theoretical and ethical ideas, and to embody those ideas. We are in an era where consumers cannot accept product development that does not consider the global environment, resources and ethics.

A desire such as "I wish there could be a convenient product like XXX" is important and it is the starting point for product development. However, unless the inventor can actually realize that desire, it is not possible to even test for a third party to recognize the expected effect. In other words, the idea must be made concrete in order to be recognized by a third party.

It took me a few more days to confirm that the three movements (mentioned previously) of the Setsuden-mushi (a profitmaking device), which was born in the early morning of June 29, 1994, will definitely be performed.

The next thing I did was to inform the designing and prototype manufacturing company of electrical and electronic equipment in Hiroshima of the completion and function of this Setsuden-mushi No.1, and to have them actually verify the movements to save electricity. It was to ask for development cooperation.

The purpose of requesting product development cooperation from that company is to reproduce the similar one as the handmade Setsuden-mushi No.1 using the best parts at that time. It was to have the second prototype Setsuden-mushi made.

As an amateur in electrical and electronic technology, I asked them to see the movements with their own eyes on the first handmade Setsuden-mushi, and make a better Setsuden-mushi as the next product development work. In other words, the idea is that " One should go to specialists for the best results " to turn a prototype product into a commercial product. The idea is that it is best to ask for cooperation without invading each other's territory.
