Team achieves 3D recognition of transparent objects in less than two seconds

What used to take 15 seconds now takes less than 2: Thanks to new single-shot technology, the goROBOT3D system, developed by researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Applied Optics and Precision Engineering IOF, will be able to measure three-dimensional objects even more efficiently in future—even if they are transparent or black. The institute will be presenting the technology for the first time at the automatica trade show in Munich from Ju…

Robots can now see invisible objects—in just 1.5 seconds

A major breakthrough from German scientists is helping robots do something that once seemed impossible: quickly recognize transparent, shiny, or jet-black objects. Thanks to a new system called goROBOT3D, developed by researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Applied Optics and Precision Engineering (IOF), machines can now “see” these hard-to-detect surfaces in under two seconds—a huge […] The post Robots can now see invisible objects—in just …
