Product Description
Unsurpassed 3D resolution and accuracy when capturing dynamic scenes
Global commerce continues to move at an accelerating pace. To compete, players need to deliver products more quickly, without compromising yields, quality or efficiency. Automating 3D inspection and dimensioning tasks can increase manufacturing productivity and logistical throughput. But maintaining efficiency and accuracy at speed demands more sophisticated machine vision solutions
Zebra’s 3S Series of 3D Sensors Delivers It All Leveraging patented parallel structured light technology, Zebra’s 3S80 3D sensors offer the industry’s highest 3D image resolution and accuracy when capturing dynamic scenes. Designed for manufacturing inspection and dimensioning applications, Zebra’s two 3S80 sensor models are differentiated by their respective scanning volumes: • Model 3S80-4M is optimal for scanning medium-sized objects and scenes • Model 3S80-4L extends the dynamic scanning range up to 3 m to acquire 3D data for the largest objects and biggest volumes. At its optimal scanning distance of 1.25 m, the sensor captures high-resolution point clouds of objects within an area measuring 1027 x 836 mm. Each sensor can acquire up to 2 million 3D points (1680 x 1200) in a 45-ms scan and render the data in detailed RGB-colored point clouds. This high-speed and high-resolution acquisition means there is no motion blur when imaging objects moving on a conveyor and provides true per-pixel measurement.
3S80 3D sensors: At a Glance
• Fast acquisition of 3D data – Patented Parallel Structured Light technology enables parallel construction of multiple virtual images within one exposure window. As a result, 3S80 sensors can accurately capture high-resolution 3D images of moving objects without motion artifacts.
• Shorter cycle times – Paired with Parallel Structured Light technology, the 3S80’s 2-MP sensor enables faster bin picking with shorter cycle times, fewer errors and faster error recovery. It also supports ambient light suppression to deliver optimal results.
• Large scanning volume – The scanning volume of 3S80 sensors ranges up to three meters, allowing it to capture 3D data of both large and very small objects.
• Plug-and-play integration – The 3S80 sensors easily pair with Zebra’s powerful 4Sight EV7 vision controller and Aurora software. Just point the 3S80 device at a scene to capture an accurate high-density point cloud.
• Patented CMOS sensor – Combined with Parallel Structured Light technology, the CMOS sensor within 3S80 cameras can quickly and accurately capture moving and stationary objects. • Power-over-ethernet (PoE) and 24V powering options – A single PoE cable provides both power and a data connection.
• Dust and waterproof – Featuring protection class IP65, the 3S80 sensors are dust-tight and protected against low-pressure jets of water coming from any direction and at any angle.
Sophisticated Performance, Simple Implementation
Though highly advanced in performance, 3S80 3D sensors are as simple to implement as the rest of Zebra’s machine vision portfolio. The plug-and-play hardware — comprising a CMOS camera, laser projection unit, and GPU processor — is designed to support AIA’s GigE™ Vision standard. Compatible with PoE+ or 24V pluggability, each device integrates easily with existing machine vision systems. Users simply plug in and point the camera at a scene to begin capturing accurate high-density point clouds without sacrificing quality or speed.
Powered by Zebra Aurora™ Software and 4Sight EV7 Vision Controller
Every 3S80 3D sensor comes bundled with Zebra’s Aurora Design Assistant™ or Aurora Vision Studio™ software to quickly configure and deploy complex deep learning and traditional machine vision applications. Add Zebra’s 4Sight EV7 for demanding single highrate or multi-camera imaging and machine vision application
Easy to Deploy and Run
Zebra’s Aurora Design Assistant and Aurora Vision Studio software makes it easy for users to deploy and run applications without having to learn or implement multiple software environments. Both software platforms enable 3S80 3D sensors to leverage a deep collection of tools for image capture, processing, analysis, annotation, display and archiving
Deep Learning to Further Enhance Solution Quality
Use 3S80 3D sensors with Zebra’s advanced deep learning tools to solve difficult machine vision problems that would be impossible to achieve with traditional tools. Locate complex and irregular surface defects and enable other challenging 3D vision tasks to improve the quality and operational efficiency of your workflow
