The systems address industrial challenges like transparent objects and reflective surfaces, targeting applications in logistics, assembly, and lab automation.", "body_md": "In Chicago this week, Orbbec showed off its latest 3D vision products to meet growing industry demand for intelligent automation. The Shenzhen, China-based company said it has tailored its industrial-grade 3D cameras for challenging scenarios. Its portfolio also includes integrated AI systems designed to enhance robotic perception capabilities.\n\n## AI-enhanced 3D vision addresses industrial blind spots\n\nAs industrial [vision](https://www.therobotreport.com/category/technologies/cameras-imaging-vision/) increasingly converges with edge [AI](https://www.therobotreport.com/category/design-development/ai-cognition/), Orbbec said it has combined high-precision 3D vision hardware with an advanced AI model. The [company](https://www.therobotreport.com/tag/orbbec/) claimed that this improves robots’ spatial perception and environmental understanding, helping overcome sensing challenges in complex industrial scenarios.\n\n### LingBot-Depth for Gemini 330 offers spatial intelligence at the edge\n\nCommon automation bottlenecks where conventional 3D vision hardware often struggles include transparent objects, low-texture or repetitive-patterned surfaces such as white walls and fences, and highly reflective materials. Orbbec has partnered with [Robbyant](https://www.robbyant.com/), also known as Ant Group, to introduce the LingBot-Depth for Gemini 330 Series.\n\nThe companies said the LingBot Enhanced Depth Filter offers key performance breakthroughs:\n\n**Empowering large models and robotic applications:** Trained with chip-level, high-precision data from Orbbec‘s Gemini 330 series as the standard input, the LingBot Enhanced Depth Filter integrates with Robbyant’s in-house vision-language-action (VLA) models. Robbyant said it hasdemonstrated that incorporating high-quality depth data directly into large models significantly enhances a robot’s manipulation capabilities and operational success rates. **Flexible dual-mode inference and** LingBot Enhanced Depth Filter is compatible with passive stereo inputs and achieves optimal performance when using the active stereo input of the Gemini 330 series cameras, said the partners. Fully compatible with NVIDIA Jetson Orin platforms, it can be extended via Orbbec’s software development kit (SDK). It uses NVIDIA CUDA and TensorRT for accelerated AI inference, enabling real-time edge inference for depth hole filling, noise removal, and edge refinement.[NVIDIA](https://www.therobotreport.com/tag/nvidia/)Jetson optimization:**Enhanced reliability for target applications:** By delivering a dependable sense of space, LingBot Enhanced Depth Filter supports reliable edge-based perception for demanding industrial tasks, including carton edge tracking in[logistics](https://www.therobotreport.com/category/markets-industries/logistics-warehousing-asrs/), reflective metal alignment in[assembly](https://www.therobotreport.com/category/markets-industries/assembly), and transparent vessel handling in[lab automation](https://www.therobotreport.com/tag/laboratory-automation/).\n\n## Orbbec says industrial-grade systems empower automation\n\nTo address key industrial challenges in precision assembly, dynamic warehousing, and vibration-heavy environments, Orbbec presented demonstrations for demanding industrial applications at [Automate](https://www.therobotreport.com/tag/automate/) 2026.\n\n### Customizable 3D DLP camera — high-precision 3D reconstruction\n\nDesigned for demanding industrial assembly and [inspection](https://www.therobotreport.com/tag/inspection), Orbbec exhibited its customizable 3D DLP structured light camera, delivering approximately 0.07 mm VDI/VDE accuracy and 0.05 mm Z-repeatability at 0.5 m. The camera has a compact, lightweight form factor optimized for integration with robotic arms.\n\nIn addition, Orbbec said its camera outputs high-resolution RGB data to support AI-driven object detection and deep learning. It also offers adaptive multi-mode capture, including fast, high-reflectivity, and accurate modes, to balance high-speed capture with precise 3D reconstruction across complex industrial scenarios.\n\n### Gemini 435Le — high performance logistics automation\n\nOrbbec demonstrated an automated [forklift](https://www.automatedwarehouseonline.com/category/autonomous-forklifts/) powered by its latest industrial-grade stereo 3D camera, the Gemini 435Le. By delivering low-noise, high-density depth data in dynamic environments and supporting stable localization, navigation, and obstacle avoidance, the system can reliably detect forklift forks and ground-level obstacles, improving both operational safety and efficiency, it said.\n\nThe [company](https://www.automatedwarehouseonline.com/tag/orbbec/) also showed the Gemini 305g, an ultra-compact stereo 3D camera engineered for robotic wrist mounting. Fully compatible with the NVIDIA Jetson Orin platform, the Gemini 305g features GMSL2/FAKRA connectivity and low-loss cabling, ensuring robust, high-speed data transmission to withstand severe mechanical vibration and electromagnetic interference.\n\n## Orbbec takes manufacturing global\n\nOrbbec said its 3D vision [solutions](https://www.orbbec.com/products/) continue to gain validation through deployments with leading global automation companies. At Automate, [Teradyne Robotics](https://www.therobotreport.com/tag/teradyne-robotics/) used Orbbec’s Gemini 305g stereo 3D cameras within its [UR](https://www.therobotreport.com/tag/universal-robots) AI Trainer, a platform for high-quality data collection required for sophisticated AI and VLA model training. The trainer helps physical AI model builders and manufacturers handle complex manipulation tasks such as electronics assembly.\n\nOrbbec noted that it has served more than 1,600 robotics companies worldwide, achieving market shares of over 70% in both China’s service robot vision market, [according to](https://www.orbbec.com/news/industry-leader-orbbec-3d-camera-taking-the-1st-market-share-over-70-in-service-robot-industry/) GGII, and South Korea’s mobile robot vision market, [according to](https://www.orbbec.com/news/orbbec-captures-72-of-koreas-mobile-robot-3d-vision-market-new-report-shows/) [Interact Analysis](https://www.therobotreport.com/tag/interact-analysis).\n\nTo reliably deliver on this global scale, Orbbec continues to expand its [manufacturing](https://www.therobotreport.com/category/markets-industries/manufacturing/) footprint. In China, Orbbec’s intelligent manufacturing base in Shunde, Foshan, provides flexible, reliable contract manufacturing and joint design for manufacturing services.\n\nMeanwhile, the [upcoming](https://www.orbbec.com/news/orbbec-breaks-ground-on-new-overseas-manufacturing-base-rvmc-to-strengthen-global-delivery-and-supply-chain-capability/) RVMC factory in Vietnam will serve as the frontline for international delivery, replicating Orbbec‘s proven [China](https://www.therobotreport.com/tag/china/) manufacturing workflows for localized mass production. The company’s U.S. office is in Troy, Mich.\n\nThrough its multi-site manufacturing strategy, Orbbec said it aims to deliver a flexible, reliable global production capacity, with annual manufacturing capacity exceeding 6 million robotic units, further strengthening customers’ supply chain resilience.", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/orbbec-shows-ai-powered-vision-systems-at-automate-2026", "canonical_source": "https://www.therobotreport.com/orbbec-shows-ai-powered-vision-systems-automate-2026/", "published_at": "2026-06-26 13:54:35+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-06-26 14:36:11.180300+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["computer-vision", "artificial-intelligence", "robotics", "ai-products", "ai-infrastructure"], "entities": ["Orbbec", "Robbyant", "Ant Group", "NVIDIA", "Gemini 330", "LingBot-Depth", "Automate 2026", "Jetson Orin"], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/orbbec-shows-ai-powered-vision-systems-at-automate-2026", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/orbbec-shows-ai-powered-vision-systems-at-automate-2026.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/orbbec-shows-ai-powered-vision-systems-at-automate-2026.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/orbbec-shows-ai-powered-vision-systems-at-automate-2026.jsonld"}}
