The MotionCam-3D Color from Photoneo (Bratislava, Slovakia) is specifically designed for objects in motion. By mapping high-resolution color directly to 3D geometry even while the subject is moving, it enables automation in environments where it was previously impossible.
The new product features:
- Instant snapshot acquisition: Captures the entire scene at once in a configurable 60 – 800 ms, completely eliminating distortion and ghosting
- Extreme speed: flawlessly captures fast-moving objects traveling at speeds up to 40 m/s
- Surface performance: Delivers high-density, gap-free point clouds even on notoriously difficult shiny, black, and metallic objects.
Many applications need a camera mounted directly onto a robot arm. Often this means that the robot must move, stop, scan, then move again. With the MotionCam-3D Color, the robot arm can sweep continuously over large, complex automotive parts while capturing a constant stream of 3D data. The flexibility and reach in this setup allow a single camera to inspect massive or deeply self-occluded parts from multiple angles in a fraction of the time.
If the camera is mounted over a running conveyor belt, it can locate parts without stopping the line. Even at high conveyor speeds, the camera maps high-resolution color to the 3D geometry without motion blur. In static scene situations, the instant snapshot feature eliminates errors caused by ambient machine vibration. If a robot misses a pick, the MotionCam-3D Color allows for an immediate re-scan and re-try.
