A robot is only as good as its sensors, so researchers at Stanford University and UC San Diego have developed a new "4D" camera that greatly enhances robotic vision. Billed as the first-ever ...

If you need your robot to pick and place different objects or handle objects in different orientations, you’ll need a robot vision system. Understanding the differences among 2D, 3D, and 2.5D cameras ...

Omron Automation’s 3D cameras and artificial intelligence-driven vision are designed for precise picking of objects with varying weights, shapes, and orientations. Danielle Belskis, automation ...

Shares of Shenzhen-based Orbbec have surged more than 315% over the past year, propelling Howard Huang, its 45-year-old ...

Cameras will hold the largest market share throughout the forecast period. The camera is the key component of robotic vision. Images are captured by cameras and sent to processing units or robot ...

18 years into the new millennium, there are a number of exciting and evolving electronic innovations taking place. Among them is the development of ‘intelligent’ robots for industry, especially in ...

It may resemble a human, but Fourier Intelligence’s GR-1 robot has six eyes instead of two — the robotics company recently updated its humanoid robot with six cameras that give it a full 360-degree ...

One of humankind's most important senses for navigating our world is our ability to see in three dimensions (3D), so it makes sense to give our robots the same capability. But how we see may or may ...

A project at the University of Maryland (UMD) has taken inspiration from the natural world for a camera that could improve robot vision. Bioinspired vision systems have already taken many forms, ...

Hiring a photographer or videographer to follow you around all day may not be the most practical (or more saliently, cost-effective) way of documenting your life and capturing its precious moments, ...

Hand-eye calibration is a core component of industrial robot vision systems, aiming to determine the pose relationship between the camera coordinate system and the robot coordinate system. An accurate ...
