3D Cameras
Hardware and software for 3D vision and robot vision
3D image processing is considered to be the future of Robot Vision. The integration of 3D data makes it possible to precisely capture and interpret the environment, enabling tasks in robot technology to be solved more efficiently. This applies both to demanding assembly processes, such as gluing or welding, and to the notoriously tricky process of "bin picking". With the Ensenso 3D cameras and the Nion ToF camera, IDS offers powerful camera systems for 3D imaging – with a focus on precision, cost-effectiveness and easy integration.

Areas of application of our 3D cameras: Automate with 3D vision
Robot vision
Our compact 3D cameras can be used in a variety of ways for robot applications in factory automation and logistics. For example, they support de-(palletizing), conveyor belt loading, bin picking during loading and unloading of trucks, in worker assistance systems or weld seam or adhesive bead inspection.
Medical equipment
3D cameras are used, for example, for precise patient positioning during magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computer tomography (CT) examinations or radiotherapy. 3D image processing also helps in orthopaedic applications and services, e.g. for measuring feet to produce custom-fit insoles and splints or for precise measurement of the back.
Object detection and classification
3D cameras enable precise classification and counting of objects. Identification is further optimized by additional color information. Another application is the sorting out of defective parts based on detected size deviations. In addition, fast volume determination enables efficient size classification. This versatile technology is used in order picking and quality control.
Outdoor and motion applications
3D cameras deliver reliable depth data even under challenging conditions – even with fast movements or strong ambient light. Thanks to active illumination and robust sensor technology, they are particularly suitable for dynamic scenes in factory automation, logistics or outdoor applications. Their high insensitivity to daylight and motion reliability make them the ideal solution for precise real-time detection in industrial applications.
