Overview

Flexible automation of depalletizing with 3D color vision based on deep learning

The PALLOC robot guidance system makes it easy to locate boxes of various sizes and appearances with high accuracy. The 3D color camera delivers up to 30 full-frame images per second with sub-millimeter resolution. These 3D and color images ensure that the individual boxes and layers can be detected and measured in an accurate and reproducible way. The camera has a pre-installed and pre-trained deep learning neural network localization algorithm that allows it to locate virtually unlimited variations of boxes. PALLOC reports the position coordinates of the boxes to the robot, allowing it to pick them one-by-one or several at the time, in a configurable picking order.
