- Autonomous robotic platform for wagon inspection: RTK, robot and 3D scannerA tracked platform follows an RTK route while a Motoman robot aims a Photoneo 3D scanner at wagon bogies. Rail freight pilot by ROBOMATICS (Lithuania).
- 3D scanning of shiny surfaces without matting sprayWhy shiny metal surfaces disrupt 3D scanning, why matting spray does not suit production, and how we scan reflective parts without it - ROBOMATICS (Lithuania).
- Photoneo PhoXi and MotionCam-3D: high-accuracy 3D scanningPhotoneo PhoXi and MotionCam-3D 3D scanners: how they work, how they differ, when to choose which, and how we use them with robots - ROBOMATICS (Lithuania).
- 3D machine vision in industry: how it works and when you need itHow 3D machine vision works: structured light, ToF, laser triangulation and stereo vision. When 2D is enough and when you need 3D - ROBOMATICS (Lithuania).
- Time-of-flight (ToF) 3D cameras: how they work and where they fitHow a time-of-flight 3D camera works, its strengths and limits, Basler blaze-101 specs and our log pile picking project - ROBOMATICS (Lithuania).
- Robot Path Correction Based on a 3D ScanWhen the part or robot is in a different place each time, a 3D scanner finds a reference feature and the robot path is recalculated. ROBOMATICS (Lithuania).
- AI Segmentation in Manufacturing: How Neural Networks Separate Objects in an ImageWhat AI segmentation is, how SAM finds logs and axle boxes, why it is paired with a 3D height map and why AI proposes, safety permits. ROBOMATICS (Lithuania).
- Bin picking: how a robot with a 3D camera decides what to pickBin picking explained: how a robot with a 3D camera finds parts in a pile, chooses a pick point and checks for collisions - ROBOMATICS (Lithuania).
- Hand-eye calibration: how to connect a camera and a robotWhat hand-eye calibration is, eye-in-hand vs eye-to-hand, how a camera and robot are calibrated and why accuracy depends on it. ROBOMATICS (Lithuania).
- Industrial Cameras: Types, Selection and CalibrationIndustrial cameras for machine vision: area-scan, line-scan and 3D types, choosing resolution, lens, lighting, interface, calibration. ROBOMATICS (Lithuania).
- Industrial Robot Programming: KUKA, Yaskawa Motoman and CobotsHow industrial robots are programmed: teach pendant, KRL and INFORM, offline programming, PC control and what makes a good program. ROBOMATICS (Lithuania).
- Process Automation in Manufacturing: Where to StartProcess automation in manufacturing: what to automate first, what a system consists of, how a project runs, common mistakes. ROBOMATICS (Lithuania).
- Quality Inspection with Machine Vision: What a Camera Can CheckQuality inspection with machine vision: 2D and 3D checks, what a camera can detect, trials on real parts and where results go. ROBOMATICS (Lithuania).
- Reading Instrument Displays with Cameras: LCD Readings Without Manual NotesHow cameras read LCD displays: meter testing on a metrology bench, QR identification, CNN character recognition, results to Excel. ROBOMATICS (Lithuania).
- RTK GNSS: centimetre accuracy for mobile robotsHow RTK GPS works, why you may want your own base station and what to expect near tall objects. Test figures from our mobile platform - ROBOMATICS (Lithuania).
