A milestone breakthrough in industrial vision! Transfer Technology has officially unveiled its fully upgraded 3D smart cameras, marking a significant leap forward in the field. By embedding powerful computing capabilities directly into the cameras, this innovation replaces the traditional “camera + industrial PC + graphics card” system architecture. With an integrated design, it delivers significant advantages in saving space, optimizing costs, and enhancing deployment flexibility, offering customers a brand-new choice.

Significant Cost Reduction

No IPC Needed, Edge Computing Onboard

Transfer Technology has pioneered the integration of high-performance computing modules directly into the cameras. Equipped with 16GB of RAM and 128GB of storage, the smart cameras eliminate dependence on external industrial PCs. This highly integrated design not only greatly enhances deployment flexibility, but also directly reduces procurement and maintenance costs of industrial PCs and supporting equipment (such as graphics cards, switches, and cabinets), all while maintaining the cameras' fundamental performance.

Enhanced Stability

More Reliable than Deploying Industrial PCs

The 3D smart cameras are built upon Transfer Technology’s independently developed integrated hardware and software architecture, providing exceptional stability and reliability even in extreme environments. Its highly integrated SoC effectively eliminates common failures of traditional industrial PCs, such as hard disk malfunctions and graphics card damage. With an IP65 protection rating, it significantly reduces failure risks caused by dust accumulation in fans or water vapor condensation, ensuring long-term, stable operation and providing continuous and reliable support for industrial production.

Moreover, the 3D smart cameras can run independently without relying on an industrial PC, supporting plug-and-play use, which further reduces wiring needs and enhances deployment flexibility. Tests show that Transfer Technology’s industrial 3D smart camera installation time is cut to one-fifth of traditional solutions. It also supports quick replacements, with downtime due to failures reduced by over 60%. The built-in high-performance SoC enables rapid edge processing, and internal data transfer speeds can reach 10Gbps—ten times that of traditional solutions—cutting transmission delays by over 200ms. In terms of power consumption, the Pixel series 3D smart cameras have average power consumption as low as 12W (6.5W in standby), and the Laser series can go as low as 16W (12W in standby).

For maintenance and debugging, the 3D smart cameras support multi-platform device connectivity, enabling users to easily debug and manage it via computers, smartphones, or tablets. Engineers can monitor camera status in real-time, check device parameters, and timely identify potential issues, greatly improving management efficiency.

Additionally, the devices feature multiple redundant backup mechanisms to ensure stable system operation even under extreme conditions. This high-reliability design significantly enhances the availability and stability of the cameras, providing a solid foundation for efficient work in industrial scenarios. Testing data shows that the devices maintain a 99.99% uptime rate even in environments with dust concentrations of 15mg/m³ and temperatures ranging from -10°C to 45°C.

Improved Space Utilization

3D Smart Camera: The Ideal Choice for Automatous Mobile Robots

In autonomous mobile robot scenarios, space occupancy and energy efficiency are crucial. The 3D smart cameras, with its unique advantages, have become the ideal choice for thesescenarios.

The cameras' compact and refined design greatly saves space, perfectly fitting within the limited installation area of autonomous mobile robots. It requires no additional reserved space for external equipment, keeping the robot’s overall structure more streamlined and compact. Its highly integrated design is a major highlight—no need for external industrial PCs, yet fully capable of image capture, vision algorithm processing, motion planning, and obstacle avoidance. This avoids the volume increase and wiring complexity caused by external devices, further enhancing space utilization.

In terms of energy consumption, the cameras' low power design offers outstanding endurance advantages. Low power usage supports long operational times for robots, reducing the need for frequent recharging, and meeting the high endurance demands of mobile robots in motion. Even in complex industrial environments, the cameras can operate stably, continuously providing precise visual support for autonomous mobile robots.
