Zivid to show high precision colour 3D camera for robotic inspection

April 3, 2019 by Anna

Zivid, a 3D machine vision camera company, will exhibit at Automate for the very first time with newly appointed imaging solutions partner MoviMED.

The company will showcase the Zivid One 3D colour camera integrated with a UR5 Universal Robot in a live demonstration of high-speed part inspection and quality control.

Using an advanced technique of time-coded structured light projection, Zivid’s real-time, high definition, colour 3D cameras capture high-quality point cloud XYZ and RGB data to equip Industry 4.0 robotic and industrial automation systems with a human-like vision capability.

With a 2.3 MPix image size, an acquisition rate of 13 Hz and unique HDR capabilities the cameras produce vivid high definition 3D colour images of challenging semi-shiny, partly reflective and dark objects.

Complementing the live demonstration, Zivid will also be featured in the Automation Solutions & Innovations track of the exhibition conference.

In a joint session, ‘The Latest Advances in 3D Vision’, on Monday, April 8, 2:30pm-4:30pm, Zivid’s VP of Sales and Marketing, Americas, Raman Sharma will give a presentation entitled, ‘Robot Automation Using Human-Like 3D Vision’.

Sharma’s 30-minute presentation will reveal how Zivid’s ground-breaking approach to 3D image capture effectively removes long-endured compromises between system accuracy and speed.

And designed to match the specific needs of a broader spectrum of robotic and industrial automation systems, the company’s new Zivid One Plus (Small, Medium and Large) camera range will also be reviewed.
