How e-con Systems enables Reliable Low-Level Obstacle Detection in AMRs with a 3D CW-iToF Camera – DepthVista Helix

Suresh MadhuOctober 7, 20260

It’s common knowledge that Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) usually navigate confidently until something small gets in the way. For instance, pallets, pipes, toolboxes, and loose packages can be found below the scanning plane of a 2D LiDAR yet remain invisible to the navigation stack until the robot reaches them. e-con...

Introducing NetraVis, e-con Systems’ 1MP Active Stereo Depth Camera for Accurate Robotic Perception

Prabu KumarOctober 8, 20260

e-con Systems’ recently launched NetraVis is a 1MP active stereo depth camera for indoor robotics applications. NetraVis measures the space around a moving platform and calculates depth inside the camera. Powered by e-con Systems’ proprietary depth-processing algorithm, it is designed to deliver accurate and consistent depth data for robotic perception....

How e-con Systems Solves Motion and Lighting Challenges in High-Speed Imaging

Vinoth RajagopalanOctober 5, 20260

Capturing fast-moving objects requires both precise image capture and controlled illumination. Fast-moving objects can introduce motion-related distortion, while the short exposure times used to freeze motion can reduce the light reaching the sensor. A global shutter camera addresses motion-related distortion by capturing the entire frame simultaneously, making it suitable for...

Edge AI vs. Cloud ANPR: Where Should the Decision Happen for Traffic Enforcement?

Dilip KumarOctober 1, 20260

When a vehicle crosses the trigger point, the camera has a fraction of a second to capture the plate, process it and recognize it. Then, if it matches a watchlist or a violation, the system must act on this information. This timing pressure raises a critical question that every traffic...

Building a Vision System for a Next-Gen Robot? Here’s What You Must Know

Suresh MadhuSeptember 23, 20260

Although a camera might seem to be just one part of a robot, its output has an effect on a much longer engineering chain. The lens and sensor that are selected determine what enters the image signal processor. The image produced then passes on to the perception system, sensor fusion,...

Common Challenges in Rear-View Vision Systems – and How STURDeCAM12 Solves Them

Suresh MadhuSeptember 1, 20260

Rear-view cameras operate in conditions that can change within seconds. Direct sunlight may fall on one part of the scene. At the same time, another remains shaded, and the camera may still need to keep approaching vehicles, pedestrians, or loading docks visible during reversing and docking. Therefore, a rear-view camera...

What is Vehicle Make and Model Recognition (MMR)? A Guide to AI-Based Vehicle Recognition

Dilip KumarAug 27, 20260

Modern roads generate more vehicle data than ever before. Traffic management systems, security checkpoints, parking facilities, tolling infrastructure, and law enforcement agencies all depend on fast, accurate vehicle identification. While Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) has become critical for vehicle identification, a license plate alone doesn’t always tell the complete...
