The Intel® RealSense™ Depth Camera D405 is a short-range stereo camera offering sub-millimeter accuracy, making it ideal for close-range computer vision applications. Its standout feature includes the use of an image signal processor (ISP) to enhance RGB data from the depth sensor, ensuring matched RGB and depth data for improved imaging capabilities.

Operating within a range of 7 cm to 50 cm, the D405 provides sub-millimeter accuracy with a minimum object detection of 0.1 mm at 7 cm. Despite its high precision, the camera maintains a small and lightweight design, measuring only 42 mm × 42 mm × 23 mm and weighing 60 g, making it compact and portable.

The D405 is well-suited for a variety of industrial automation applications. In manufacturing facilities, it enables defect detection with remarkable accuracy of 0.1 mm, facilitating automated inspections and precise pick-and-place operations for small objects at close range. Additionally, the camera finds application in robotics with gripping capabilities, assembly line inspections, and even wound management in healthcare settings, providing accurate 3D measurements without the need for physical contact. Its sub-millimeter accuracy opens up a new world of use cases requiring precise close-range depth sensing.

A guaranteed field-of-view concept simplifies commissioning, while GigE Vision and GenICam compliance contribute to seamless and cost-effective integration into various systems. The device's modular industrial design, complemented by its IP65/67 rating, ensures durability and adaptability to demanding environments, further solidifying its position as a top choice among machine vision system integrators seeking reliable and high-performance 3D cameras.

The compact Visionary-T Mini 3D snapshot cameras from SICK with their simple operation and excellent data quality provide the solution to virtually all industrial 3D machine vision requirements. Thanks to the advanced 3D time-of-flight technology, each pixel delivers extremely accurate depth and intensity data. The camera captures its surroundings extremely reliably even in strong light/dark contrast conditions and at long distances, and delivers precise data even for moving objects thanks to its very short image capture time. A clearly structured configuration tool makes it easy to parameterize the device and flexibly adapt the data to the specific application. This makes Visionary-T Mini an ideal, cost-efficient solution, e.g., for logistics, robotics or industrial vehicles.

At a glance:

• Up to 30 3D images per second at full resolution (512 × 424 pixels)
• Compact housing

• Enclosure rating: IP65, 67
• 3D data transmission over industrial Gigabit Ethernet

The Ensenso N-Series is designed specifically for use in rough environmental conditions. Thanks to its compact design, the N-Series is equally suitable for 3D detection of moving and stationary objects in a space-saving stationary or mobile application on a robot arm. Even under difficult lighting conditions, the integrated projector projects a high-contrast texture onto the object using a pattern mask with a random dot pattern, thus filing in the structures that are not present or only weakly present on the object's surface. All cameras are pre-calibrated and therefore easy to set up.

Industrial suitability
The lockable GPIO connectors for trigger and flash also make all models suitable for industrial use. For particularly high demands on robustness, both Ensenso N30 and Ensenso N40 3D camera series are available with IP65/67 protection class and thus protected against dirt, dust, splash water or cleaning agents.

Lightweight and cost-optimised - the N40 series
The completely decoupled 3D stereo electronics of the new N40 series allows the use of a lightweight plastic composite as housing material, which makes it possible to manufacture the 3D camera family more cost-effectively.

The reduced weight also makes Ensenso N40 models applicable to collaborative robotic arms, whose driving forces are limited to protect the human colleague. The haptics of the plastic surface and rounded edges also help to minimise injuries.

For highest demands - the N30 series
The aluminium housing of the N30 models ensures optimum heat dissipation of the electronic components and thus a stable light output even under extreme environmental conditions. This ensures the consistently high quality and robustness of the 3D data.

The metal construction also allows a very flexible and robust mounting of the CMOS sensors with vergence angles of 2° to 10°, which makes it possible to realise application scenarios with very short object distances.

The Hikrobot Line Laser 3D Camera is engineered to deliver precise real-time point cloud data, crucial for logistics and warehousing operations.
