Summary:
In order to improve efficiency of material research and development, we build a new material search method "Materials Exploration Platform", utilizing experience which is Japan's strengths.
POCs are following three for KPI of 1,000-times throughput on battery materials synthesis;
(1) High-throughput autonomous exploration systems;
- "Prototype" : autonomous experiment system
- "Measure" : automatic crystal structure analysis
- "Accumulate" : properties prediction system
(2) Data-driven/hypothesis-driven hybrid research style;
"Understand (induce inspiration based on experience)" is connected to "P"→ "M"→ "A" by machine learning.
(3) Knowledge shearing;
Knowledge obtained from data, inspirating researchers, is shared with R&D institution, R&D company, and measuring instrument manufacturers
for future materials R&D ecosystem.
