Focus Robotics Partner Overview

Vision sensors will be the foundation of many commercial robotic and automation products in the coming years. The Focus Robotics nDepth™ vision processor overcomes the high computational cost and complexity of processing depth information. Using standard camera sensors, the nDepth™ processor provides 752x480 pixels of depth information at a rate of up to 60 frames per second all in a low cost, low power FPGA. By isolating the cost and complexity of vision in a separate processor, companies wanting to use vision in their products can focus on tasks that deliver value in their core business.

Focus Robotics is committed to creating relationships with robotic and automation firms to help them bring the value of depth perception to their products. Whether your design demands OEM level integration, or you just want an off the shelf PCI or USB stereo vision system, Focus Robotics has the right solution for you.
