The Intelligent Electric Vehicle Industry Service and Talent Development Center at National Yunlin University of Science and Technology (YunTech) has been developing automotive driver assistance systems since 2010 and has continued to advance research and development in automotive electronics and artificial intelligence (AI). In 2023, YunTech and JI-MING Industrial Co., Ltd. initiated their first industry–academia collaboration project, the "Development of Rearview Mirror Control Signals and Technical Service Project." Through this collaboration, the two parties successfully completed electronic rearview mirror signal extraction and technical training, enabling JI-MING Industrial to internalize the technology and establish a strong foundation for team collaboration.
In 2024, the two parties continued their partnership through the "Development of Rearview Mirror Image Signals and Technical Service Project." The project successfully established technologies for rearview mirror image signal analysis environments and signal analysis methods, accompanied by professional training programs that further enhanced JI-MING Industrial's employees' expertise in automotive electronics.
With the support of Chairman Tsung-Ming Huang of JI-MING Industrial, both parties discussed deeper cooperation models in 2025 and decided to establish the "JI-MING Industrial and YunTech Joint Research and Development Center." The center aims to provide a more flexible and long-term collaboration framework aligned with JI-MING Industrial's future development strategies while promoting talent exchange and shared use of research facilities.
The JI-MING Industrial Co., Ltd. and YunTech Joint Research and Development Center is a three-year project, with JI-MING Industrial investing a total of NT$6 million. The collaboration aligns with the two major development directions of the JI-MING Group: industrial development and construction development.
For JI-MING Industrial's manufacturing business, the collaboration leverages the company's existing strengths in the automotive aftermarket sector and focuses on long-term development needs in automotive electronics, vehicle cameras, and related technologies through cooperation with YunTech. For JI-MING Construction, the collaboration introduces smart home technologies to incorporate more human-centered and energy-efficient concepts into future residential developments.
Through this three-year joint initiative, both parties will establish a comprehensive research and development platform to achieve these goals, creating a mutually beneficial outcome that promotes industrial upgrading and talent development for the JI-MING Group.
The Inauguration Ceremony of the JI-MING Industrial Co., Ltd. and YunTech Joint Research and Development Center was held on July 13, 2026, in conjunction with the launch and inauguration ceremony of YunTech's Regional Talent Development Center for Intelligent Electric Vehicle Control Systems. This milestone represents an important step toward achieving the Ministry of Education's goal of sustainable operation and long-term development for regional talent cultivation centers.
