Satoshi Amagai’s Blog : 15th Anniversary of Our Founding

On December 6th, our company celebrated its 15th anniversary.We would like to express our sincere gratitude for the stern yet encouraging guidance and support we have received from all those involved. We continue to receive new inquiries, requests, and opportunities every day, which reminds us how quickly time passes.Thanks to your continued support, we have rarely experienced a “silent” period over these past 15 years.— That said, during the COVID-19 pandemic, communication with the rest of the world was temporarily disrupted. However, we devoted ourselves to restructuring our internal operations to meet the needs of that critical situation, and our daily activities remained as busy as ever. To summarize our

Exhibiting at CES, One of the World’s Largest Technology Trade Shows

VSTech Sensors (https://vs-tech.fr/), our partner in the joint development of next-generation vein authentication sensors, will be exhibiting at CES (https://www.ces.tech/), one of the world’s largest technology trade shows, to be held in Las Vegas, USA, from Tuesday, January 6 to Friday, January 9, 2026. At the event, VSTech Sensors will showcase examples of their deep-tech expertise in sensor miniaturization, including applications for smart rings and an ultrathin vein authentication film sensor. Our current products will also be on display, and visitors will be able to experience demonstrations of comfortable and secure vein registration and authentication. If you are attending CES, please be sure to stop by our booth. The booth

Satoshi Amagai’s Blog : multi-function vs. single-function

This “multi-function vs. single-function” issue might also be considered a type of trade-off, similar to what we’ve discussed in the past two sessions. Take smartphones, for example.Nowadays, many people feel they can’t live without their smartphones. Everything is packed into a single device through apps.As long as the phone is working well and in your possession, it’s incredibly convenient — it feels like you can go anywhere in the world with just your smartphone. However, if the smartphone malfunctions, runs out of battery, gets misplaced, or is stolen, it becomes a serious problem.Also, when too many apps are installed, it must be frustrating if you can’t quickly find and launch

OKI’s recycling-type cash handling machine ‘USCOS III’ now comes standard with mofiria’s vein authentication module.

mofiria Corporation (Head Office: Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo; President & CEO: Akira Shibata; hereinafter “mofiria”) is pleased to announce that its vein authentication module has been adopted as a standard feature in the “USCOS III” recycling-type cash handling machine developed by OKI Electric Industry Co., Ltd. (Head Office: Minato-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Takahiro Mori; hereinafter “OKI”). The “USCOS III” is an advanced recycling-type cash handling machine designed to address the needs of various industries where cash is handled—such as retail, transportation, and logistics. Sales of the unit began in March 2025. By standardizing the use of vein authentication, which utilizes internal biological information, the machine offers both high security through reliable

Satoshi Amagai’s Blog : Trade-off between hardware and software

Following up on the previous discussion, I’d like to talk again about trade-offs from a business model perspective—specifically, the classic dilemma of “gaining on one side while losing on the other.” <Hard Business vs. Soft Business> Of course, in reality, the distinction isn’t this clear-cut. And if you ask, “So where does Mofiria stand?”—our core strength lies in our algorithm that can authenticate individuals with exceptional precision. From that standpoint, we fall under “soft.” However, to properly perform vein authentication, we need to integrate optical components such as LED lights (as near-infrared light sources) and CMOS sensor cameras (to capture vein images), along with a chip to run the algorithm—all

Trade-Offs

On a personal note, today, January 9th, marks six months since I underwent laparoscopic kidney surgery. I’ve written about various episodes from that time in a previous blog, so if you’re interested, please take a look: This time, I’d like to discuss something I’ve been contemplating since the very beginning of our vein authentication business, long before my hospital stay: trade-offs. A trade-off refers to a situation where achieving one goal means compromising another—essentially, a relationship where “you can’t have your cake and eat it too.” However, since its inception, mofiria has been advocating that our vein authentication technology resolves the trade-off between “high security” and “simplicity and convenience”, making
