Can be integrated into commercially available collaborative robots and lightweight industrial robots
Measurement possible with a single image capture, complexity eliminated
Suitable for most unstructured applications


Robot arms sometimes have to perform a picking process that involves picking up products of varying shapes and sizes from different directions.

Manufacturers often add devices such as fixtures or machine feeders to ensure process consistency, but this approach is difficult to apply to different products and hinders rapid process changeovers, thereby increasing operational costs and complexity.

OnRobot announced on the 17th that it is launching the 'Eyes' vision system equipped with 2.5D vision technology.

Unlike conventional vision systems, the Eyes Vision System only requires a single image capture to measure and recognize parts, and it also features an autofocus function that allows working at different distances within the same application. It is also equipped with depth perception capabilities using 2.5D vision technology.

Eyes can be easily mounted on the wrist or exterior of a robot arm. It can also be integrated with major collaborative robots and lightweight industrial robot arms through OnRobot's 'One System Solution'. The One System Solution serves to integrate all of OnRobot's products through an integrated machine and communication interface based on OnRobot's Quick Changer.

The new product interfaces directly with other OnRobot devices, allowing for easy integration with OnRobot's gripper products. By utilizing the Dual Quick Changer to install the Eyes in duplicate with the gripper, the gripper's Tool Center Point (TCP) can be automatically configured, preventing software conflicts that may occur with products from other companies.

The new system is suitable not only for pick-and-place applications where the gripping direction is important, but also for CNC machine tending for sorting various products or metal parts.
