Abstract(in English) Since the 1970's, we have been developing machines aiming for factory automation, office automation, and social automation. As time has passed, our major research objective has changed from factory automation to office automation and from office automation to social/security automation. Consequently, the demand for machines that are capable of dealing with more complex and difficult automation tasks has grown. In my talk, I will first introduce a brief history of the industrial machine vision and the intelligent character recognition technologies in applied fields. Then I will discuss the strategies of the developments as explaining actual automated machines such as semiconductor inspection machines, mail sorting machines, automated teller machines, etc, working in real world. Finally, I would like to touch on my experiences as an industrial researcher, which can be summed up by the phrases "practicality first, novelty second," "development first, research second," and "non-vision first, vision second."
