Message from the President

Since our founding, INTERACTION Corporation has upheld the unwavering philosophy of being “Client First.” Driven by this principle, we have supported the world’s most advanced manufacturing through our optical and mechatronics technologies, spearheaded by our light source equipment for image sensor testing.

The reason we have consistently been the partner of choice for the world’s top-tier factories is not simply because we build “excellent machines.” It is because we have aligned ourselves more deeply than anyone else with the “greatest pain points” faced on our clients’ front lines. We achieve this through our highly sophisticated—and at times painstaking—know-how: understanding exactly “how to illuminate a target to reveal the invisible root causes.”

As the evolution of technology enters uncharted territory, even a drop of a few percent in the yield rate on cutting-edge production lines instantly results in massive opportunity losses amounting to billions of yen.

In response to this profound challenge our clients face, we are making a quantum leap, boldly transcending the traditional framework of merely “providing hardware.”

The key to this breakthrough is the fusion of our proprietary “primary data” and “cutting-edge AI.”

Holding the top global market share, our light source equipment is already operating at the forefront (the edge) of the world’s manufacturing. The exceptionally pure physical data generated from these robust customer touchpoints and our optical know-how continuously makes our AI smarter the more it is used. No matter how much massive capital late-coming tech giants may invest, there exists an absolute competitive moat here—”physical touchpoints × optical technology”—that can never be overcome by the power of software alone.

Through strategic alliances with partners possessing outstanding technologies, we will introduce this solution to the market at an unprecedented speed. In manufacturing environments where confidentiality is absolute, we take full control of data sovereignty and securely complete processing at the edge. This is not merely a cost-reduction tool for the factory floor; it is a “future management infrastructure” that empowers top executives to make instant investment decisions worth hundreds of millions.

Solving our clients’ greatest pain points from the root through an altruistic approach. This chain of genuine contribution will ultimately build a robust ecosystem where INTER ACTION becomes an “absolutely indispensable presence” for our clients, dramatically transforming our business model into a SaaS architecture highly resilient to economic fluctuations.

“A beautiful and resilient lotus flower blooms only in the mud.” This is what I believe. We never turn our eyes away from the complex and difficult challenges of the front lines; instead, we create the supreme value out of them. It is the magic of transforming our “weapons” known as technology into “presents” that pave the way for our clients’ future.

The “Second Act” of INTER ACTION—a never-ending celebration of value creation—boldly begins right here, right now.

We will continue to brightly illuminate the future of the world with the power of light. Please look forward to our great new leap forward.
