Jabil Optics Introduces Omnidirectional Sensor for Mobile Robots
ST. PETERSBURG, FL—Jabil Inc. is developing a novel omnidirectional sensor for mobile robotic and industrial equipment.
The 3D time-of-flight (ToF) depth sensor combines a custom optical assembly with an active illumination approach to provide a 360-degree by 60-degree field of view. Currently in beta-testing, the solid-state sensor is designed to support lower-cost autonomous mobile robots and collaborative robots.
