ShapeDrive G4 3D Sensors. Excellence in Shape.
The measuring principle of the 3D machine vision sensor ShapeDrive G4 is based on triangulation and structured light. Several patterns are projected onto the object via the illumination, while it is captured synchronously by a camera. Sophisticated algorithms are used to calculate a 3D point cloud from the various images. The internal calculation is carried out using the fastest electronics. The 3D sensors of the ShapeDrive G4 series, also known as snapshot sensors, are available with different measuring ranges or measuring volumes, so that a sensor can always be selected to suit the application. See the high quality of the 3D point cloud for yourself.

ShapeDrive G4 型 MLBS 3D 传感器测量体积大

MLBS 系列传感器采用对称结构。这意味着测量体积不在传感器的摄像头正下方,而是位于传感器的中心位置。这可通过照明系统和摄像头的对称倾斜来识别。对称性可降低阴影效果,例如板条箱。如此可以检测整个板条箱。
