FRAMOS launches High-Accuracy, Long-Range D455e Variant in New Housing Design

FRAMOS, a global provider of custom imaging solutions and components, is expanding itssuccessfulD400edepth camera series with the D455e variant. This plug-and-play camera is based on Intel® RealSense™technology andboasts the best accuracy over its range. With a 95mm baseline – the longest in the productfamily- the D455e enables high depth accuracy at large working distances. The cameracanmeasure distances of up to 20mbut ismost accurate in the range from 0.4m to 6m. The measurement error ata distance of 4metersis less than 2%. With its high accuracy, large working range, wide field of view (FOV) of 86°x57°,and ability to capture fast-moving objects without distortion, this GigE industrial camera offers excellent capabilities for use in many different applications.

Targets Many Applications Thanks to Its High and Large Working Range

The D455e from FRAMOS is especially suited to robotics and industrial automation, driverless machines(AGV)in agriculture and construction, and interactive digital signage. It also offers capabilities for multi-camera setups to monitor large areas or different scenarios. The camera enhances the depth data from the stereo setup (1280 x 720 pixels, max. 90 fps) with image data from a global shutter RGB sensor (1280 x 800 pixels, max. 30fps). As the depth sensors and RGB sensor have the same field of view, the result is an optimalblendof depth information and colour images. The global shutter sensors make it possible to captureextremely fastobjects without distortion.

Industrial Housing with Optimised Mounting

The D400e series offersGigabitEthernet (M12) and an industrial-grade aluminium housing with IP66 protection. With the new housing design, theconnectorsare nowlocatedat the backof the D455e. In addition, four M4 threads offer more versatile mounting options compared to earliermodels in theD400eseries. Theconnectors forGigabitEthernet(M12)andthepower supply(M8 for 12V or 24V,or the GPIO)can be screwedto the camera enclosure. When securely fastened in this way, they are insensitive to vibrations in harsh industrialenvironments. Cable lengths of up to 100m are possible.
