Cost of Automated Visual Inspection
Visual inspection does not add value. We cannot spend much on its automation. I am considering how to proceed with "automation of visual inspection" based on this premise. Although it depends on the specifications, the approximate cost is 15 million yen including automatic supply and discharge. Supply, [...].
3D shape comparison inspection
At the Image Sensing Expo in June, we gave a demonstration of 3D shape imaging using structured light, saying "We have started 3D visual inspection. As expected, in December, we will be at the same level... and we are working on implementation so that we can demonstrate 3D shape comparison inspection. For now, a sample [...].
Blackwell support for HALCON
As GPUs continue to evolve, we are concerned about delays in software support. In this context, HALCON will soon release 25.11, which will "support Blackwell". On the other hand, GPU suppliers have been saying, "Ada generation [...].
Business Matching Session" Presentation Completed
We have just finished our presentation at the Kyoto City Venture Business Connoisseur Committee's 5th "Business Matching Meeting for A-Rank Certified Companies" on November 13. Since there was a time limit of 9 minutes, I put on the brakes this time and gave my presentation "exactly as written". The usual [...].
We want to attract experienced people.
I believe there are two kinds of work. Work that, if you move your hands, is guaranteed to generate sales and profit. Work that, even if you move your hands, has no guarantee that sales will increase. Work that may result in zero sales even if you do your best. There may be jobs where sales will increase without moving hands [...].
Exhibit at International Technical Exhibition on Image Technology and Equipment 2025
We will exhibit at International Technical Exhibition on Image Technology and Equipment 2025, which will be held at Pacifico Yokohama from December 3 to 5, 2025. We will be exhibiting in the Robotics Zone (Booth No. RT-D5). Visual inspection equipment requires "eyes" and "hands". We will focus on the "hands" of the "eyes" and "hands" of the "eyes" and "hands" of the "hands" of the "eyes".
Mechatronics Engineer wanted!
We are looking for a mechatronics engineer who can plan and develop the "hands" of visual inspection equipment. Most visual inspection equipment is generally "site-specific, product-specific, and tailored to the customer's specifications. However, the degree of difficulty is high to begin with, and in addition, it is not easy to develop "production equipment" such as [...].
Kyoto City Venture Business Connoisseurship Committee 5th "Business Matching Meeting for A Rank Certified Companies
I will be speaking at the "Business Matching Session for A-rated Certified Companies" on Thursday, November 13, 2025 at 3:00 p.m. via Zoom webinar. For details, please click here. In 2007, our company was recognized by the Kyoto City Venture Business Connoisseur Committee as an "A" ranked company.
Like a "private business cooperative."
Since automation of visual inspection is "automation of non-value-added work," we do not think that a large budget will be allocated for it. I think the upper limit for equipment would be around 10-15 million yen. In that price range, a team of several people will develop [...].
Equal sales, equal pay
We believe that "sales = contribution to the customer's business. If we contribute a lot to our customers and make a lot of sales, we would like to pay wages in proportion to the sales. (To be precise, it is "in proportion to profit"...) We want to create a form that rewards engineers who work hard. We want to create a form that rewards hard-working en [...].
