SGWRD Launches Falcon-Zx Series Stereo Vision Cameras for Robotics

As artificial intelligence and robotics technology continue to advance, stereo depth cameras are increasingly being utilized as a crucial sensor in various robotic systems. As an indispensable perception device for robots, stereo depth cameras provide high-precision depth information, enabling robots to perform tasks such as environment perception, stereo vision, posture recognition, intelligent navigation, human-computer interaction, and target tracking.

SGWRD Falcon-Zx Series Stereo Vision Cameras

Recently, SGWRD has leveraged its technical expertise and product experience in high-quality AI imaging to launch the Falcon-Zx series of stereo vision cameras, designed specifically for robotic applications. This product is composed of two IR image sensors, one RGB image sensor, one infrared speckle projector, and one IMU, all supported by a USB 3.0 interface in a 3D stereo camera.

The SGWRD Falcon-Zx series stereo vision cameras utilize an active stereo vision principle to capture depth information more accurately. This series not only provides high-resolution and high-frame-rate image data but also delivers excellent imaging performance, offering high-quality images across various application scenarios. This ensures that AI robots maintain clear vision in diverse environments.

The Falcon-ZF stereo vision camera within the Falcon-Zx series supports both active stereo technology for 3D imaging based on structured light and passive stereo technology based on visible light. It can achieve depth measurement over a range of up to 25 meters, aiding robots in reliably perceiving their surroundings in complex and dynamic environments.

The SGWRD Falcon-Zx series stereo vision cameras can output image data at a maximum resolution of 1280x800@30fps. The IR and RGB image sensors use global shutter technology to minimize motion artifacts, ensuring high-quality perception performance even in high-speed movement environments. Additionally, the stereo camera integrates a 6-axis IMU, providing robots with high-precision 3D positioning data across various application scenarios.

The SGWRD Falcon-Zx series stereo cameras combine stereo vision with an RGB camera. The RGB image data offers additional support and information for robot perception and decision-making, enabling robots to capture features such as color and shape of target objects for more precise identification and grasping, thereby meeting the demand for more flexible robotic operations.

In terms of design, the SGWRD Falcon-Zx series stereo vision cameras feature a compact design, with dimensions of 90.75x25x30mm, making them highly adaptable and seamlessly integrable into more robotic and spatial perception applications. Moreover, these stereo vision cameras are widely applicable for AGV/AMR, drone obstacle avoidance, navigation, and other similar uses.

Falcon-Zx Stereo camera solution based on NVIDIA platform

As an NVIDIA partner, SGWRD has deeply integrated the Falcon-Zx series stereo vision cameras with the Jetson AGX Orin platform using software driver technology on Jetson AGX Orin. This integration allows developers to more efficiently create various applications, and conduct learning and research.

The Falcon-Zx series stereo vision cameras can connect to the Jetson AGX Orin platform via a USB 3.0 interface and operate on the ROS system. Building on the Jetson AGX Orin development platform, SGWRD will also launch a development kit for the Falcon series stereo vision cameras, offering full-stack technical support and services for developers requiring high-precision 3D stereo camera solutions in the field of robotics vision, further supporting the deployment of robotic applications across more scenarios.
