Alps Alpine President Says Feeding the Right Data Is Key to AI in Cars, Bets on Multimodal Sensing

Alps Alpine President Hideo Izumi has put "feeding the right data" at the center of the company's strategy for artificial intelligence in vehicles, arguing that the shift toward multimodal AI makes it essential to extract only the information that matters from a growing array of sensors. The Japanese automotive electronics maker is positioning what it calls "multimodal sensing" as its next core technology, combining its in-house sensors with proprietary integrated circuits to deliver curated data rather than raw signals.
