The 48th ITE 2026 at Pacifico Yokohama: Explore Cutting-Edge Image Technology

The 48th International Technical Exhibition on Image Technology and Equipment (ITE) 2026 will be held at Pacifico Yokohama, located in Minatomirai, Yokohama City, from December 2nd (Wed) to December 4th (Fri), 2026. This exhibition has been contributing to the advancement of image processing technology and its industrial applications as one of Japan's largest machine vision events.

Evolution of Image Processing and Expanding Applications

In recent years, advancements in AI and deep learning have dramatically improved the analytical capabilities of image processing technology. Consequently, its importance as a key technology supporting our lives has grown beyond traditional FA (Factory Automation) applications like quality control and process monitoring, extending into diverse fields such as social infrastructure, security, ITS (Intelligent Transport Systems), and medical/life sciences. Its role is expanding from optimizing manufacturing processes to contributing to the resolution of societal issues, including accident prevention, medical diagnosis support, and the realization of smart cities, making it an indispensable element for building a sustainable society.

Fusion Technologies Showcased in the Robotics Technology Zone

This year's exhibition will feature a special "Robotics Technology Zone" focusing on robotic technologies that offer solutions to current industrial challenges like improving productivity, quality, and labor efficiency. The zone will showcase solutions directly addressing on-site issues, including robot components and materials, control systems, automation systems, and RPA, highlighting the creation of new value through the fusion of image processing and robotics.

International Image Seminars for Learning Latest Technologies

During the event, the "International Image Seminar" will be held. This seminar offers a platform to learn about the latest trends in image processing technology, new products, and technical developments. Experts from the forefront of machine vision, the Imaging Science and Technology Association, and exhibiting companies will deliver lectures and product presentations. These seminars are free to attend and provide an excellent opportunity to grasp the cutting edge of machine vision and imaging technology.

Other Highlights
