## About

Based in Gyeonggi-do, South Korea, and founded in 2021 by CEO Park Chul-woo, iCore, Inc., aka iCore, provides imaging-based automatic inspection and analysis that acquire images with a camera, lens, and lighting, analyzes and processes that image to suit the purpose of the task to act, and provide direction to perform a specific task. In March 2023, iCore raised KRW 5 billion in Series A funding, led by SV Investment, with participation from Kolon Investment and the Korea Credit Guarantee Fund.

iCore product line includes a strobe controller, an autofocus module, lighting, a repeater, and a splitter that gives vision to machines to automate tasks that were previously handled by humans and allow them to be processed by machines. Through its strobe controller, the firm offers a power circuit that generates ultra-precise current pulses of 200.0 µs or less even at conditions above 5 A, enabling stable and precise strobe light control even with high-power LEDs. The high-magnification optical system of the AOI (Automatic Optical Inspection Machine) automatically adjusts the optimal image by measuring the position of an object in real-time so that defects of 1µm or less can be detected at high speed in semiconductor and display inspection, as well as by applying the optimized design for the interface, providing stable data transmission of various models for user convenience, and optimizing solution implementation. The company offers services in various fields, such as displays, semiconductors, secondary batteries, PCB, SMT, biotechnology, medical, and food.
