Join Course ‘Foundations of Robotics’ in Barcelona

We are looking forward to hosting a course on the ‘Foundations of Robotics’ together with the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya on July 13 and 14 at the UPC's premises in Barcelona. Held in the context of the 5GSMARTFACT project, the course is designed for its Early Stage Researchers with little or no background on robotics, perception and ROS. However, some seats remain and we are hence opening the registration –if you’re interested (or know someone who might be), read more and sign up here... 5GSmartFact is an MSCA-ITN project whose objective is to study, develop, optimize and assess the deployment of 5G networks for the benefit of industrial automation. 5GSmartFact has received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under the Marie Skłodowska-Curie grant agreement ID 956670

News: Roboception Presents High-Resolution 3D Stereo Sensor rc_viscore

The rc_viscore offers 12 Megapixel (MP) resolution for maximum accuracy and level of detail, and is particularly suitable as a sensor component for more complex robotics applications that require a high level of precision coupled with larger workspaces. Munich-based technology leader Roboception GmbH expands its range of high-performance sensors for industrial 3D image processing in robotics by adding the rc_viscore high-resolution 3D stereo sensor to its product portfolio.The rc_viscore delivers an image resolution of 12 MP and hence generates a very detailed point cloud as well as depth, confidence and error images. The impressive image quality allows its use in complex automation applications that require high-quality image processing. It is suitable for the reliable detection of small parts with a size of just a few centimeters, even in large detection areas with a working distance of up to four meters - specifications relevant for automated machine loading, for example. "We simply wanted to put 'more pixels in the bin' to further increase the applicability of image processing solutions in automation," explains Dr. Michael Suppa, co-founder and CEO of Roboception. "We focused on achieving both a high-quality point cloud and a maximum accuracy and level of detail. And, of course, on maintaining the intuitive usability and unique price-performance ratio that our customers appreciate in our products." Coupled with Roboception's rc_cube, the rc_viscore provides the image data for object detection and the computation of grasp points, for example in industrial automation and logistics. The new stereo ...
