DoCoMo’s Fuel Cell for Mobile Devices
The Fuel Cell Development Information Center (FCDIC) recently held a seminar titled “Dawn of the age of fuel cell for mobile devices” with lecturers were invited from leading companies involved in fuel cell development such as NTT DoCoMo, Inc., NEC Corp., Toshiba Corp., Hitachi, Ltd. and Canon Inc. In the lecture, the company mentioned not just the basic performance as a power source for mobile devices but also specific requirements with respect to reliability and safety in actual usage.
First, NTT DoCoMo talked about the following four requirements of the fuel cell for use in mobile phones: (1) power at generation point; (2) orientation-free property; (3) improvements in safety and maintenance; and (4) other issues. NTT DoCoMo co-developed a fuel cell that can be used as an exterior recharger with Aquafairy Co. in July 2006 in a bid to commercialize it as early as in 2007. In the lecture, the company mentioned not just the basic performance as a power source for mobile devices but also specific requirements with respect to reliability and safety in actual usage.
