Basler BLAZE
Time of Flight (TOF) 3D Camera
The Basler blaze industrial 3D camera operates on the pulsed Time-of-Flight principle. Its laser diodes (VCSEL) work in the NIR range (940 nm), generating 2D and 3D data in one shot with a multipart image, incorporating range, intensity and confidence maps.
The Basler blaze offers high precision via Sony’s innovative DepthSense™ Image Sensor Technology.
Outstanding 3D imaging with the latest Sony DepthSense™ IMX556PLR sensor technology
Precise, almost millimeter-accurate optical measurement with the time-of-flight method
Large measuring range, covering approximately two Euro pallets or a small car
Real-time streaming of pre-processed 3D point clouds and 2D intensity images
Daylight capability and IP67 protection for stable results under difficult conditions
Light and contrast independent
Easy system integration thanks to compact design and Gigabit Ethernet
User-friendly and platform-independent programming interface with sample programs
Reliable operation in multi-camera systems without mutual interference

Artificial Intelligence and 3D Vision for Fruit Sorting
To master this task, Basler has teamed with the software provider Data Spree to develop a vision solution for the detection and classification of individual fruits, using 3D data as raw material. The spatial information gained during the teaching of the neural networks creates a robust real-time solution for fruit sorting. |
Time-of-Flight Technology Meets Labeling Robot
To meet these requirements, Basler, together with Vanomation Inc., a leading supplier of industrial labeling machines, has developed a system for printing and applying shipping labels in warehouses and distribution centers that handle large quantities of packages on a daily basis. |

Freight dimensioning
Thanks to its precision, speed, robustness, compact size and GigE interface, the Basler blaze camera is suitable for precise, flexible measurements collected when passing by. When color is needed, it can be combined and synchronized with all Basler 2D cameras. |
Agricultural products can vary greatly in shape and color, which poses a great challenge for traditional image processing methods. One example is the recognition and sorting of fruit.
