Stereo Systems

Our specialty is stereo vision hardware and software. Stereo vision provides realtime, full-field distance information, and is useful in many applications in a wide variety of fields, including robotics, people-tracking, environment modeling, obstacle avoidance, mapping and navigation, and digitizing books.

We use the Small Vision System for realtime stereo analysis from SRI's Artificial Intelligence Center.

Monocular Cameras

With high performance and low power in a compact package, our all-digital monocular cameras are designed for machine vision tasks.

Our cameras use low noise, high sensitivity CMOS imagers with either VGA and megapixel resolutions, and are available in either color or monochrome.

Mobile Robots

Our industrial strength PC-on-Wheels is designed for Research, Education, and Applications.

The ERRATIC robot platform is compact, powerful, and capable of carrying a full load of robotics equipment, including an integrated PC, laser rangefinder, sonar, and stereo camera.
