Description:
The O3R platform consists of compact camera heads (VGA cameras and time-of-flight sensors) and a vision processing unit (VPU) with NVIDIA Jetson TX2 for the evaluation of the data. Up to six camera heads can be connected to the Linux-based device, including sensors from other companies.
The software architecture on the VPU is Open Source (Linux + Docker), allowing the customer full access to the CPU/GPU with the ability to deploy their preferred software platform.
The camera heads are about the size of the Intel RealSense D Series cameras, but with full industrial specifications rated for shock, vibration, and dust. As different use cases require different visibilities, heads are available with both low (38K) and high (VGA) depth resolutions and both narrow (60x45°) and wide (105x78°) opening angles to increase flexibility.
