Panasonic Unveils LUMIX DMW-DMS1 All-in-One Microphone

Panasonic unveils LUMIX DMW-DMS1 all-in-one microphone. Panasonic has introduced the LUMIX DMW-DMS1, a highly adaptable all-in-one microphone engineered to deliver professional-grade audio across a variety of filming environments. Featuring a large-diameter 10mm microphone array and an internal floating shock-mount, the device is designed to capture crisp audio while minimising vibration noise during movement. As of February 2026, the DMW-DMS1 is compatible with several LUMIX models, including the S1II, S1RII, S1IIE, S5II, and S5IIX, with support for the GH7 and G9II expected in the future. The DMW DMS1 is designed for creators and professionals who want uncompromising audio quality without complexity. Whether you're filming a travel vlog in a busy city, recording an interview in a quiet studio, or capturing the excitement of a live event, this microphone adapts to your needs so you can focus on your story. As of February 2026, the DMW-DMS1 is compatible with LUMIX S1II, S1RII, S1IIE, S5II and S5IIX.*1 Compatibility with GH7 and G9II is planned in the future. The DMW-DMS1 features a newly developed large-diameter 10mm microphone array that delivers crisp, focused audio even in challenging environments. For run-and-gun workflows, an internal floating shock-mount minimizes vibration noise from movement, while the included windscreen reduces wind interference. The new wind noise cancellation system leverages float-recording technology, suppressing wind without compressing the intended signal, maintaining an open, natural vocal tone even in adverse weather. To accommodate a wide range of recording situations, the DMW DMS1 offers six directional modes, reducing the need for additional accessories and setup. It supports 32-bit float recording*2 to capture audio without distortion at sound pressure levels up to approximately 120 dB, comparable to a front-row concert or close proximity to an emergency siren - conditions that can challenge conventional microphones. To prevent any missed takes due to accidental setting errors, or to capture ambient sound, the device offers two backup recording modes*2. When recording in 4-channel mode, channels 3 and 4 can be used as backups to reliably capture important audio. Lightweight at approximately 100g, the compact form factor draws power and transmits digital audio via the hot shoe, eliminating cable management. Physical switches are intuitive, and directional mode buttons feature adjustable brightness for low-light environments. A dedicated pouch provides convenient storage and transport with the windscreen attached. The DMW-DMS1 will be available from mid-March at RRP €399 / £349 / $399.

Panasonic's AI Ambitions Stumble As Consumer Apps Hit Delays and Closures

Panasonic's AI ambitions stumble as consumer apps hit delays and closures. Panasonic is struggling to turn its AI vision into new growth, with the Japanese company delaying the launch of a high-profile app and preparing to shut down a consumer services platform early next year. The company confirmed this month that Umi, a family-focused AI application unveiled at CES in Las Vegas in January 2025, will not launch as planned. The delay raises questions over Panasonic's ability to execute on its push to make AI a core growth driver. Umi was positioned as a cornerstone of Panasonic's long-term strategy to lift the share of AI-related businesses to 30% of group revenue by 2035 - triple current levels. Designed as a personalised "family AI", the app learns household members' habits and preferences to offer health and lifestyle suggestions, including diet and exercise advice. The service was expected to use AI technology from US startup Anthropic. However, speaking at an investor briefing in early December, Panasonic Group CEO Yuki Kusumi (pictured) said a "definitive decision" still needed to be made on Umi, without providing a revised launch timeline. The app was notably absent from Panasonic's announced plans for CES 2026, which instead focus on business-to-business technologies such as energy storage systems for data centres. The uncertainty around Umi follows another setback in Panasonic's consumer software efforts. The company will close Yohana, a household support app launched in the United States in 2021, on January 30. Yohana allowed users to outsource everyday tasks such as shopping and travel planning to dedicated staff via a subscription model. The service later expanded to Japan, rolling out nationwide earlier this year. Panasonic said the closure was based on a "comprehensive assessment of the business environment". Both Umi and Yohana have been overseen by Yoky Matsuoka, a former Google executive recruited to bring Silicon Valley-style software development to the traditionally hardware-focused group. The challenges come as Panasonic undertakes broader structural reforms, including cutting 10,000 jobs and exiting low-margin businesses.

Panasonic glass-based perovskite solar panels tested in office windows

Panasonic glass-based perovskite solar panels tested in office windows. Japanese electronics manufacturer Panasonic is testing its glass-based perovskite solar PV technology in office windows made by YKK AP, a construction and building materials company. Image: Panasonic Japanese electronics manufacturer Panasonic Holdings and YKK AP, a construction and building materials company, are testing the installation of windows made with Panasonic glass-based perovskite photovoltaic (PV) solar panels. The focus of the test is "examining installation methods for inner windows and confirming workability," a spokesperson told pv magazine. In the study, the Panasonic glass-type perovskite solar PV is used in four YKK inner windows with weatherproof wooden sash frames, measuring 723 mm x 1,080 mm. The project does not include the verification of power generation performance. The transparency and patterning of the thin film perovskite material is customised in each of the four prototypes, with a decorative pattern in one, and semi-transparent to almost transparent finishes in the others. The company said that the PV transparency is precisely controlled by the degree of processing, with power generation performance changing accordingly. "This makes it possible to make flexible choices according to the building application and installation environment," said Panasonic in a statement. Panasonic has been developing perovskite solar technology for over a decade. It recently advanced the use of inkjet printing for large area devices. As of 2023, its 802 cm2 device glass-based perovskite devices had a certified power conversion efficiency of 18.1%, an efficiency result that was up from 17.9% for a device with the same size, reported in 2023 by pv magazine.
