RoboBusiness Robotics Vision TechnologyAt the 9th Annual RoboBusiness Conference, Velodyne Acoustics Inc.’s LiDAR division will exhibit the latest real-time, 3D LiDAR vision technology used in robotic applications and, in a Thursday afternoon presentation, Wolfgang Juchmann, Ph.D., Director of Sales and Marketing, will elaborate on what he sees as emerging trends in robotic vision.

Lunar Rover with Velodyne HDL-32EIn Booth #518, Velodyne will demonstrate its live sensor operated with VeloView, the company’s free and open-source visualization and recording software. VeloView provides an easy-to-use, thoroughly modern tool for visualization and processing of Velodyne’s data-rich, 3D LiDAR sensors, supporting live sensor streams and run-time display of previously captured data.

VeloView’s visualization tools include a 3D point cloud display with support for custom color maps of variables such as calibrated reflectivities, time, distance, azimuth, and laser ID.

NASA Lunar Rover with Velodyne HDL-32EVelodyne’s RoboBusiness presentation, which will take place at 3:45PM on Thursday 24th October at Santa Clara Convention Center, Santa Clara, Calif, is titled “Emerging Trends in Real-Time, 3D Vision for Robots”. Details for the presentation are shown below:
