Photoneo, a well established 3D machine vision developer, provider and enlightener known primarily for its award-winning PhoXi 3D Scanners and comprehensive end-to-end bin picking solutions, will be taking part in this year's VISION show. The company concentrates on its 3D vision products to be versatile and easy to use, allowing to push the boundaries of automation forward.
At Vision 2018 in Stuttgart, visitors of the Photoneo’s booth #1I45 will have a chance to watch the Scanners and the new PhoXi 3D Camera in action (check a teaser here). You can also stop by by if you want to be introduced to the AI-driven application called AnyPick, for picking almost any type of non-transparent and non-porous objects from 1x1 cm, with a strong depth of focus, ambient light suppression, customised manipulation after pick and 300-500 picks per hour; suitable for e-commerce.
The PhoXi 3D Scanners represent industry best sensors for an unbeatable performance in terms of low noise and overall efficiency. Applications utilising these include robot manipulation (bin picking, pick and place, trajectory correction, palletising, assembly, packaging), quality control/ inspection (CAD comparison, product completeness check, dimensions check), recognition (product type, product ID/ OCR) and engineering (3D model from scans, reconstruction).
The PhoXi 3D Camera has overcome a limitation of the Scanners - the ability to capture a dynamic environment. With the invention, Photoneo was shortlisted for the Vision Award 2018. Founders of the company proudly claim it’s the highest resolution and highest accuracy close and mid-range 3D camera for sensing in rapid motion (in addition to scanning static environments, too) on the market. The one of a kind performance is achieved by a patented technology called Parallel Structured Light, implemented by a custom CMOS image sensor.
The carbon fibre body of the camera ensures the same level of robustness and lightness at the same time, possessed by PhoXi 3D Scanners. This qualifies it to become another powerful tool for bin picking, palletising, de-palletising, machine tending, online quality control and metrology, autonomous delivery systems, object sorting, safety systems, food industry, harvesting and many others. You can also visit Photoneo's booth to witness key benefits of the Parallel Structured light by yourself: scanning in rapid motion (one frame acquisition, 40m/s motion possible); 10 times higher resolution & accuracy than the ones provided by other devices so far (more efficient depth coding technique with true, per pixel measurement); no motion blur (10 µs per pixel exposure time); rapid acquisition of 1068 x 800 point-clouds + texture up to 60 fps; and active ambient light rejection.
