Challenging object cells

Four challenges. One 3D foundation.

Reflective metal, dark plastic, translucent silicone and layered steel. One SolScan moves between four illustrated cells, from surface sensing and pose output to an integrator-developed handling example.

Application: Reflective Buckles

SolScan Scope

3D Sensing & Data Output

Show it

Show both faces of a reflective buckle.

The opening, raised bridge and reverse face provide distinct reference features.

Teach it

Learn the shape behind the reflections.

The reference cloud preserves the buckle outline and its front-to-back differences.

Locate it

Locate one buckle among overlapping metal.

One target is separated from the pile; its measured position and tilted pose are handed off.

View this integration case

Illustrated challenge

Without 3D guidance

Development Example

Integrator / Machine Builder Examples

One preset misses the buckle while a second grips it too high and off-centre, letting it slip.

Use the measured pose to grip the fallen buckle on opposite edges and load the fixture.

Place the located buckle in the fixture for the machine to process.

Application: Low-Contrast Plastic

SolScan Scope

3D Sensing & Data Output

Show it

Show the shape of a dark plastic housing.

Similar dark surfaces hide the differences between sockets, latches and keys.

Teach it

Distinguish the housing by its geometry.

The 3D reference describes the socket openings and moulded key, without colour coding.

Locate it

Separate one housing from its neighbours.

The selected identity, height and tilted pose remain distinct in the low-contrast pile.

Illustrated challenge

Without 3D guidance

Development Example

Integrator / Machine Builder Examples

One preset misses the socket while a second grips too shallowly, letting the housing slip.

Use the measured pose to align the fingers for a deeper grip inside the socket.

Fill the kit tray before moving it onward once the tool is clear.

SolScan application concept 2

Application: Translucent Silicone

SolScan Scope

3D Sensing & Data Output

Show it

Show the hollow, curved silicone shape.

A thin flange, curved shoulder and open cavity define the translucent reference sample.

Teach it

Capture the curved surface as a 3D reference.

Illustrated challenge

Without 3D guidance

Development Example

Integrator / Machine Builder Examples

Both presets misjudge the surface angle, leaving uneven cup contact that lets the silicone part peel away.

Use the measured surface angle to centre the suction cup evenly on the silicone part.

Place each silicone nipple upright in a separate fixture nest.

SolScan application concept 3

Application: Deep-Bin Steel

SolScan Scope

3D Sensing & Data Output

FAQ

Common Questions About SolScan

Answers about 3D vision, object recognition, robotic applications, and system integration.

What is the difference between SolScan and AccuPick?

SolScan is an industrial 3D camera with integrated AI software that provides accurate 3D imaging, object recognition, and positioning. Designed for system integrators and machine builders, it provides the vision capabilities needed to develop a wide range of industrial automation applications. AccuPick is a complete robotic picking solution that combines these vision capabilities with robot integration, grasp planning, and motion control. SolScan offers a versatile vision platform for customers developing their own applications, while AccuPick provides an integrated solution specifically for automated robotic picking.

What are the advantages of SolScan's integrated 3D camera and AI software?

SolScan combines accurate 3D imaging with intelligent AI software that performs 3D Object Recognition and determines object position and orientation. By providing these capabilities in one product, SolScan reduces the need to develop separate imaging and recognition systems. This simplifies vision integration, supports faster deployment, and allows system integrators and machine builders to focus on developing their own applications.

Can SolScan recognize both everyday objects and challenging materials?

Yes. SolScan combines 3D imaging with intelligent AI recognition to identify and locate a wide range of industrial objects, from everyday products and components to challenging materials such as textured transparent surfaces, reflective metals, dark objects, and polybagged products. These capabilities support applications ranging from routine object recognition and measurement to more demanding automation tasks. Imaging and recognition performance depend on material properties, object geometry, and operating conditions.

How quickly can SolScan learn to recognize new products without CAD models?

SolScan uses one-shot and few-shot learning to recognize new products from one or a few reference images, enabling quick onboarding of new items without collecting large training datasets. Its CAD-free 6D pose estimation can also determine an object's position and orientation without requiring a CAD model. These capabilities help developers introduce new products and adapt to changing requirements with less training and development effort. Actual onboarding time depends on the object and application.

What does SolScan provide for system integration and rapid deployment?

SolScan combines an industrial 3D camera with integrated AI software to provide 3D imaging, object recognition, and spatial positioning capabilities in one product. Its outputs include point clouds, object identification, and 6D pose data (X, Y, Z, Rx, Ry, Rz), which developers can incorporate into applications such as robotic guidance, automated handling, and dimensional measurement. By supplying these vision capabilities together, SolScan helps reduce development effort and supports faster deployment. Application-specific functions, including robot motion and grasp planning where required, are handled separately.
