Basler Time-of-Flight Camera

Cut System Costs with 3D Technology

The Basler Time-of-Flight (ToF) Camera is an industrial 3D camera operating on the pulsed Time-of-Flight principle. It is equipped with eight high-power LEDs working in the NIR range (850nm), and generates 2D and 3D data in one shot with a multipart image, comprised of range, intensity and confidence maps. The Basler ToF Camera stands out in particular for its combination of high resolution (VGA) and powerful features at a very attractive price. This outstanding price/performance ratio puts the Basler ToF camera in a unique position on the market and distinguishes it significantly from competitors' cameras.

Our camera is suitable for a variety of applications, including robotics, industrial automation, logistics and medical & life sciences, as well as in many areas of the "Smart Factory."

How Does a ToF Camera Work?

The measurement principle is based on the time the light needs to travel from the light source to the object and back to the camera; the further the distance, the longer the time taken. Both light source and image acquisition are synchronized in such a way that the distances can be extracted and calculated from the image data.
