Robeye®, the standard for body shop rack unload at automotive OEMs. 

Learns from 1 image in 1 second. No training datasets, no tuning calls, no waiting.

 

Install on Saturday, run production on Monday.

Robeye®

Vision so advanced, it looks simple.

Humans see in 2D and navigate a 3D world, Robeye® gives your robot the same ability. One 2D camera. Full 6 degrees of freedom guidance. One second to teach. That’s it.

 

ROBEYEInUse2

Features

No CAD required

The system does not rely on pre-existing CAD models for object recognition or localization.

Teach real object

Objects can be taught directly from real-world samples instead of digital models, making setup quick and intuitive.

Recognize long part with 2 cameras

The system can accurately detect and recognize elongated, thin parts using a dual-camera setup for enhanced visibility.

Cable issue reporting

It automatically detects and reports issues related to cable integrity, routing, or disconnection.

Camera disconnection reporting

The system alerts users when a camera is disconnected or experiencing issues, ensuring continuous operation.

Detailed database

A comprehensive database stores object data, calibration details, and recognition parameters for efficient retrieval and analysis.

Calibration to find object with one shot

The system calibrates to precisely locate objects in a single capture, reducing processing time.

Finds objects in X, Y, Z, Rx, Ry, Rz

The system identifies object positions in 3D space, including rotational alignment along all axes.

No structured lighting

Object detection works without the need for structured lighting, allowing flexible deployment in various lighting conditions.

Benefits

Simplifies Line Feeding

  • Replaces precise mechanical solutions (pre-centering tooling, conveyors, high precision racks and rack stands, etc.).

Reduces Production Time

  • A re-engineering solution that eliminates added process time due to human operator error. This also allows for a reduction in manpower.

Increases Flexibility

  • New models only require additional programming and do not require additional vision hardware.

Quick and Easy Setup

  • Mount a single camera with a gigabit Ethernet cable attached to the vision controller. Teaching a new model to the system takes less than five minutes.

Robotic Guidance

  • No CAD data or calibration required. Connect, teach, and recognize all in less than five minutes.

Low Mean Time to Repair

  • Uses off-the-shelf components for easy system repairs.

 

How We Differ

No Calibration Required

  • No machine vision pixel-to-millimeter calibration required.

One Image Object Teaching

  • Recognition based point-and-click object teaching.

One Camera

  • Utilizing a 2D camera, Robeye® can provide a robot with highly accurate 3D guidance data.

No Need for Structured Lighting

  • Allows for a multitude of lighting solutions.

Vast Operating Range

  • Robeye® can find any object as long as it’s in the field of view of a regular camera image.

Software

CortexRecognition® is a groundbreaking piece of visual recognition and guidance software developed by Recognition Robotics. It functions very similarly to the human visual process and can be taught, and learn a large number of objects, then recognize and locate any of the learned objects in the camera’s field of view.

Frequently Asked Questions

How quickly can Robeye® identify and localize an object?

This depends on the size and level of detail that the object possesses. Generally, automotive applications see acquisition times of less than 500ms for recognition, localization and data availability to the robot.

What object sizes can Robeye® work with?

Robeye® works with objects as small as 1 x 3 inches, and others as large as the side body panel of an SUV.

What degree of accuracy can a Robeye® system achieve?

Our applications employ our patented iterative process to verify the robot’s position and calculations. This ensures accuracy limited only by the robot itself. One production scenario performs piston stuffing with an accuracy of 100 microns.

Does the visual recognition software come with Robeye®?

Yes. The system includes CortexRecognition® software, the Robeye® panel, a 2D camera, communication and lighting cables, and the lighting system.

Does Robeye® need additional software?

CortexRecognition® is a standalone software suite. Real-time output is currently limited by latency between the robot and the Robeye® panel.

Should certain objects be avoided?

The system performs best with objects that have many details. It is less robust when recognizing small, simple shapes that lack contrast.

Is a CAD model required?

No CAD model is required. CortexRecognition® uses a simple point-and-click object teaching method.
