3D Imaging of Transparency: The Next Frontier in Automated Item Picking

Warehouse automation has proven to be difficult due to a huge number of different item SKUs (stock-keeping units) and challenging parts to image. Items can come in any type of packaging: matte boxes, plastic bags, poly bags, windows, transparent bottles. Transparency has been a roadblock to getting to a fully automated warehouse. Why is it so hard to get a 3D point cloud of transparent surfaces? In this webinar, the innovations shaping the future of robotic item picking are explored.
