Konica Minolta / Radiant Vision Systems
April 7, 2026

Radiant Vision Systems, a leading provider of imaging systems for scientific evaluation of light sources and displays, announced the merger with its sister company, Konica Minolta Sensing Americas, to form a new company.

This integration takes place on April 1, 2026, combining two leaders in the sensing market to better serve customers.  The new company, Konica Minolta Sensing Americas (KMSA), has its headquarters in Redmond, Washington, and its other primary office in Ramsey, New Jersey. In addition, KMSA has offices in mainland China and Taiwan. 

The integration offers a broader portfolio of solutions and enables customers to obtain them from a single source. It brings together market-leading sensing products from Konica Minolta, Radiant, Instrument Systems, Specim, and Eines, and includes measurement solutions for color & appearance, light & display, surface inspection, hyperspectral imaging, gas monitoring, and paint quality.  

Yuto Saitoh will serve as Chief Executive Officer of the new company. Yuto previously served as EVP of Radiant Vision Systems, overseeing Finance and Human Resources, and guiding Radiant’s strategic planning to ensure long-term sustainable business development. Prior to Radiant, at Konica Minolta, Yuto adeptly navigated challenges and played a pivotal role in making key decisions, serving as Senior Manager of Business Planning in Sensing Business. He was responsible for growth strategies that encompassed M&A and partnering activities, and portfolio management. 

“I look forward to leading the integrated company,” says Yuto, “by unifying our broad product portfolio and deep expertise as one team, we truly become better together and are well positioned to provide more comprehensive solutions and greater value for our customers.”
