Wrist Camera

Topic outline

• Your Robotic Vision Through the Robotiq Wrist Camera!

  Locate objects the fastest and easiest way with Robotiq’s Wrist Camera! The following introductory video will present you the Wrist Camera, defined by the Visiion and Vision System. The Vision System uses the Robotiq Wrist Camera and the URCap software on Universal Robots to provide you with a simple object teaching interface. The interface allows to set up the Vision System so it can recognize object locations and orientations automatically. The Camera is designed to work in industrial applications in combination with the Robotiq Hand-E, 2F-85 and 2F-140 Adaptive Grippers. Get a glimpse of what the Wrist Camera can do to help you automate your robotic tasks faster!

• Lesson 15 - Import CAD Model

  In this lesson, learn how to use the Robotiq Wrist Camera’s Import CAD Model feature to create a visual model of any part. Simply create a 2D drawing of the important edges of your CAD model and save it in DXF format. Import it into the camera software application… and you’re ready to go! This easy way to import models will help you capture highly reflective objects and speed up your cycle time. Watch as David Rochette, a Robotiq technical trainer, shows you how to create a CAD import model in this short tutorial.
