3D Structured Light Camera

The technical term “3D structured light camera” may puzzle you at the first glace but you will definitely have your “Aha” moment if I mention it is applied to facial recognition which you possibly use on a daily basis.

The technical term “3D structured light camera” may puzzle you at the first glace but you will definitely have your “Aha” moment if I mention it is applied to facial recognition which you possibly use on a daily basis. 3D structured light camera is a subclass of 3D camera. In terms of varied applications, it is comprised of laser structured light, speckle structured light, raster structured light and so on. The hardware to realize 3D structured light imaging is camera and projector. Based on its characteristics, it is applicable to facial recognition, disorderly sorting, path planning, package measurement, 3D defect detection, etc.

Challenge

One of limitations of some cameras is that they have to collaborate with light source to help them in seeing things clearer. However, with the advancement of machine vision technology and increasingly detailed demand towards various applications, 3D structured light camera is designed to deal with protean conditions outdoors. Apart from that, as the coding accuracy of 3D structured light camera can reach to 1 pixel or even sub pixel in principle, the quality and precision of point cloud will be better compared with other peer cameras. Therefore, it gradually becomes a mainstream in the industry.
