| The Sharp
Corporation was founded in 1912 by Tokuji Hayakawa and takes its
name from one of our founder's first inventions, the Ever Sharp
propelling pencil, developed in 1915. Sharp has continued this creative
tradition, developing technologically innovative products to enhance
our lives, add to our comfort, broaden our perspectives and boost
our productivity. |

| Sharp is
recognised for its pioneering research into Liquid Crystal Display
(LCD) technology. Sharp introduced the first LCD electronic calculator
back in 1973. Since then, it has continued to develop revolutionary
LCD products such as the ViewCam, Ultra-Lite notebook pc and touch-screen
personal organisers. Perhaps the best illustration of the impact
of liquid crystal display technology on product development is with
the simple calculator. Sharp introduced the world's first all-transistor
desktop calculator in 1964. By 1979, just 15 years later, Sharp
announced the world's first super-thin (1.6mm) card sized calculator.
Today, Sharp leads the way in LCD and is a worldwide developer of
core technologies that will play an integral role in the development
of digital technology such as optoelectronics, infrared, semiconductors
and flash memory. |
