We are currently working on developing a wide array of new products, including the launch of haptic devices this year. Just as the slide says, we are re-entering the haptic device business. We were once the world's number one maker of vibration motors for mobile phones but posted a huge deficit due partly to the fall off in prices. We finally decided to withdraw from the market because of the coreless design of vibration motors. Although coreless motors boasted a superior response, they were difficult to manufacture in small sizes and would cost too much to make. Today we have Mitsumi's haptic technology, and it is fantastic. It really amazed Minebea's motor engineers. We already have a customer base plus several more potential customers. Production will start at our Cambodian plant between the second half of this fiscal year and next fiscal year. This is one of the product categories we can look forward to seeing good things from. These haptic devices will mark the launch of a host of new products we have in the pipeline.
