Basler Blaze Time-of-Flight 3D Camera
Industrial Time-of-Flight 3D camera for fast, cost-effective depth imaging.
The Basler Blaze is an industrial 3D camera that operates on the pulsed Time-of-Flight principle. Its laser diodes, VCSEL, work in the NIR range of 850 nm and 940 nm, generating 2D and 3D data in one shot with a multipart image incorporating range, intensity and confidence maps.
The Time-of-Flight Basler Blaze is easily installed, cost effective, simple to use and extremely fast.
Advantages of the Basler Blaze Time-of-Flight Camera
Basler's time-of-flight-based measurements have several important advantages compared to other 3D imaging technologies, such as laser triangulation or stereoscopic vision systems.
No external reference points required
Measurements are not dependent on external reference points or the presence of contrast in the surface of the measured object.
Real-time measurement
Provides real-time, video frame rate measurements independent of scanning cycles or limitations imposed by computer processing power.
Integrated scene illumination
Scene illumination is provided by the camera and is not dependent on illumination from external visible light.
Industrial operation
Daylight capability and IP67 protection help support stable results under difficult conditions.
Low system requirements
The Blaze offers a compact, cost-effective 3D imaging approach with low system requirements.
Applications
General machine vision applications require highly stable and reliable sensory systems. The Basler Blaze supplies reliable depth data that increases the robustness and flexibility of surveillance, inspection and logistics systems.
Single-camera-based factory automation through identification of an object's location, volume and orientation.
Can replace space-consuming infrared light curtains used to monitor workers in the proximity of dangerous equipment.
Supports autonomously guided vehicles, service robots and industrial robots in assembly, quality control monitoring, material handling and automation.
Detects and measures freight volumes quickly, with fast data acquisition, small system size and no need for mechanical scanning devices.
The third dimension delivered by the Basler Blaze allows easier image segmentation, including presence, location and number of persons or objects in target zones.
Supports emerging medical and biometric applications, including human-machine interfaces, patient-position monitoring and surgical imaging support.
Medical and Biometric Examples
- Human-machine interface for geriatric rehabilitation computer games.
- Clinical use of Time-of-Flight for patient-position and patient-movement monitoring to increase the effectiveness of therapy, including radiotherapy.
- Providing laparoscopic surgeons with a surface dimension to assist in endoscopic surgery procedures, enabling the marriage of the real-time image to previously generated scanned images.
