Radiant Vision Systems Relocates Headquarters to Downtown Redmond, Washington

04/23/2018
Radiant Vision Systems, a leading provider of visual test and inspection solutions for lighting and displays, moved its global headquarters to a new location in downtown Redmond, Washington.

The new two-story facility is just six miles from the company’s previous single-story location in the Redmond Ridge area, but accommodates significantly larger square footage. The move supports expansion of the company’s engineering, support, and manufacturing teams to meet demands for solutions development in light and display measurement as well as advanced vision inspection. From its new headquarters facility, Radiant will continue to support its global office locations in North America, China, and Korea, and its extensive distributor network.

“The relocation of our corporate headquarters is a significant step forward for Radiant,” said Hal Yamazaki, Radiant Executive Vice President. “The move signifies business growth and provides an opportunity for Radiant to explore new technology development, applications, and production goals. Already, we have broadened our expertise beyond measuring standard flat panel displays and light sources.”

“In recent years, Radiant has developed measurement solutions for emerging markets like augmented and virtual reality, head-up displays, near-infrared for gesture detection or autonomous vehicle sensing, and new displays using high-resolution OLED and microLED technology. The growing number and variability of these applications demands a diversification of our offerings and a corresponding plan to implement resources to accomplish this,” he said.

Radiant’s new facility provides space for additional R&D activities and imaging labs, manufacturing and fabrication, and business operations, which greatly impact new solutions development and production capacity to support its global customers. Radiant counts many major brand names among its clients, including consumer electronics, automotive, lighting, and aerospace firms, who invest heavily in continuous product development to incorporate emerging technologies.

“The evolution of our customers’ products has been the driving force of Radiant’s growth,” said Yamazaki. “In order to meet a customer’s design and quality control needs, we must be agile to address new technology types that enable their competitive advantage. This means ensuring our investment matches that of our customers. We remain customer-focused in our strategy and, as we begin this new chapter in Radiant’s history, we look forward to continuing to provide industry-leading products and to serve our customers better than ever.”
