Stereo Imaging Use Cases and Challenges

Depth perception is a requirement for various warehouse robotic applications such as autonomous navigation, pick & place and palletizing. The common methods to achieve depth perception are stereo, time-of-flight, and lidar.

In this talk, we will discuss the following:

1. Trade-offs between 3D vision technologies for robotic applications,
2. Stereo imaging and its key design drivers,
3. Use cases of deploying stereo imaging in various warehouse robotic applications, and
4. Common challenges in real-world scenarios and tactics to tackle them.
