We are pleased to announce that Century Arcs Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Yoshinobu Oka) will officially release a new model of the improved "BothView C Mount Model," a derivative product of the event-based vision camera product "SilkyEvCam," along with an HD sensor module on Tuesday, October 28, 2025. For more details, please visit our website.

We are pleased to announce that Century Arcs Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; President and Executive Officer: Yoshinobu Oka) will hold a seminar on December 4, 2025 (Thursday) to learn about the current state and future of event-based vision cameras. This is the first comprehensive seminar in Japan* to systematically and practically learn about event-based vision cameras (hereafter referred to as event cameras). *According to our research Since last year, we have been conducting seminars on advanced technology event cameras, which have received positive feedback from many participants. In previous seminars, due to time constraints, we primarily introduced the features, mechanisms, and basic usage of event cameras, making it difficult to fully convey their potential. In light of this, we will invite experts deeply involved with event cameras to share their research, sensor information, application examples, and more in a special seminar. Please note that registration will close once we reach capacity, so check the details and apply early.

We are pleased to announce that Century Arcs Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Yoshinobu Oka) will hold a seminar on the "present" and future of event-based vision cameras on December 4, 2025 (Thursday). The event-based vision camera (event camera) SilkyEvCam operates with each pixel functioning asynchronously, responding only when brightness changes, and outputting time and coordinate information. Since last year, we have been conducting seminars that have received positive feedback; however, due to time constraints, we have only been able to introduce the features, mechanisms, and basic usage of event cameras. Therefore, we will hold a special seminar inviting experts deeply involved with event cameras to freely discuss their research, sensor information, application examples, and more. This is the first comprehensive seminar in Japan to systematically and practically learn about event cameras. We hope you will join us!

We are pleased to announce that Century Arcs Co., Ltd. will be conducting a limited-time 10% discount campaign on event cameras for students and researchers from June 10, 2025 (Tuesday) to December 19, 2025 (Friday). Event-based vision cameras (hereinafter referred to as event cameras) capture only changes in brightness at an independent pixel level and output time and coordinate information asynchronously and at high speed. They are gaining attention in various industrial fields, including academia, manufacturing, and security, and their adoption is progressing. This campaign aims to support research activities in a wide range of fields, not only in machine vision. It is an opportunity for you to experience and utilize advanced image processing technology, so please consider making a purchase.

Our company has been participating in the platform development of smart contact lenses announced by Seed Corporation since 2019. The development of smart contact lenses requires a fusion of diverse technologies and substantial investment. In this project led by Seed Corporation, various technologies and organizations collaborate to achieve a highly flexible platform, building a versatile product substrate at a low development cost. Leveraging the miniaturized circuit design and implementation technology cultivated through the design and manufacturing of camera modules, our company developed the creation of implementation substrates suitable for the curved surfaces inside contact lenses and the methods for their implementation. Additionally, utilizing currently available wireless power supply and communication technologies, we designed a communication and power supply system for smart contact lenses, formulated the specifications for the LSI, and, in collaboration with RAMXEED Corporation (foundry), achieved optimal circuit design.

The new product "SilkyEvCam BothView C-Mount Model" is a derivative of SilkyEvCam developed in response to requests from many event camera users. To simultaneously capture data from an event-based vision camera, which features ultra-fast detection of brightness changes at the pixel level and is less affected by the illumination of the environment due to its wide dynamic range, and frame-based data, it has been common to arrange both cameras in parallel. However, this method cannot avoid parallax, requiring additional correction processing, which does not fully utilize the advantages of the event camera's low data volume and low power consumption. This product eliminates parallax by capturing images with a single lens and utilizes a beam splitter to divide the incoming light from the lens into frame and event sensors, allowing for simultaneous acquisition of event and frame images. Additionally, data synchronization is achieved by sending timing signals from the frame sensor to the event sensor. This new product is expected to contribute to the promotion of understanding of event cameras and the expansion of academic research and applications.
