Standard 3D processing library provides higher yields

The standardization of this framework permits the synergistic integration of available digitizing technologies and configurations like laser triangulation with single or multi camera set-ups, stereo vision, Time of Flight devices, and other sources of organized sets of points with a CoP (Cloud of Points) processing software. The result is an extremely accurate and precise 3D digital model. Ease of use and very high processing speed have been key factors for the development and success of this library. As an example, two CoPs of one million points each can be aligned and compared in less than 0.5 seconds with just two operations.

The latest release of AQSENSE’s library, SAL3D 9.3 includes functionalities for an extended compatibility with 2D operations suitable for inspecting three dimensional bodies. For combining the outcome of a 3D process to conventional 2D processing, CoPs are projected on a plane, originating flat data sets or ZMaps. The ZMap representation keeps the metric characteristics of the CoP, without the undesired perspective distortion present in range-maps.

The implementation of the 3D Shape Analysis Library is currently providing machine builders from the food processing industry with strategic advantages like 3D portioning and slicing technology capable of ultra accurate volume measuring for obtaining higher yields.
