With the optimization of 3D applications, the complexity of working with camera hardware and its data increases inevitably. With the Ensenso SDK 2.2 and the new 5 MP camera models, IDS offers several solutions that simplify the work with 3D data for system integrators and developers. With further improved hardware and software, IDS supports the development of more powerful 3D applications. Even for difficult tasks such as bin-picking, the demands on quality, cycle rate and economy can now all be met, as well as the rapid availability of robot vision applications.
