3D imaging using the triangulation
technique
About the C3-1280-CL camera
Acquiring height profiles and height images by means of laser sheet-of-light
(triangulation) technique, a laser line is projected on the object, the
resulting sensor image being evaluated by the camera core and converted
into a single height profile By scanning the laser line over the object,
a complete height image of the object can be acquired.
The camera's ability to complete the 3D calculations inside the camera
enables it to acquire up to 47 000 profiles per second with more than
60 million 3D points per second. For maximum flexibility, three profile
algorithms are included without the choice of the profile influencing
the profile speed. This results that the profile date are always output
at the same maximum speed.
The C3 sensor is capable of delivering position data as well as additional
features (eg intensity, line width) without sacrificing profile speed.
An additional feature of the camera is that up to eight sensor AOIs can
be designed for dividing the sensor in separate subwindows. The sensors
are equipped with a global snapshot shutter for capturing sharp, undistorted
images and profile data even for fast-moving objects.
The camera's advanced trigger options assures precise profile triggering
even at changes of movement velocity.
