unveiled the Gemini 435Le, the latest addition to its stereo vision lineup
The Troy, Mich.-based company said it delivers substantial enhancements for industrial applications and offers leading depth-sensing
performance.“The Gemini 435Le represents another important milestone in our pursuit of industrial-grade 3D vision excellence,” stated
Brad Suessmith, robotics sales manager at Orbbec. “It’s not about disrupting for the sake of disruption, but about delivering highly
adaptable, high-performance solutions that empower customers to succeed across even the most diverse and fragmented industrial automation
scenarios.”Founded in 2013, Orbbec is a leading provider of robotics and artificial intelligence vision, offering products that it said
deliver performance and value spanning structured light, stereo vision, time-of-flight (ToF), and lidar technologies
The company claimed that its technology powers robotics, manufacturing, logistics, retail, 3D scanning, health tech, and fitness
systems.With in-house research and development, a state-of-the-art factory, supply chain management, and global support, Orbbec said it also
offers OEM engagements for custom and embedded designs specifically tailored for robotics applications.Gemini 435Le includes sensing
improvementsAs robotics applications expand into more complex and precise scenarios, the market demands higher accuracy and greater
reliability in 3D perception, noted Orbbec
Drawing on more than a decade of experience, the company said it designed the Gemini 435Le not to disrupt, but to complement its product
portfolio.Orbbec asserted that the new system addresses the technology gap between high-demand and fragmented use cases, with a focus on
precision and adaptability
It also listed the following key features of the Gemini 435Le:Long-range, high-precision sensing: Optimized for robotic vision, the Gemini
435Le provides low-noise, high-density depth data even while in motion, said Orbbec
This is crucial for large robots such as forklifts to achieve stable positioning, navigation, precise obstacle avoidance, and object
recognition in complex environments, significantly enhancing robotic path planning efficiency.Reproduction of object edges and contours:
Even with intricate object contours, Gemini 435Le can accurately reproduce target edges and effectively identify pallets made from various
materials, meeting high-precision recognition and measurement needs
Orbbec said that visitors to its booth at Automate can see direct performance comparisons in which Gemini 435Le will outputs complete depth
images in complex, mixed-material scenes
It asserted that this will demonstrate its environmental adaptability and sharp, distortion-free geometric edges for smoother, clearer
object contours.Scene-configurable depth modes for flexible adaptation: Gemini 435Le comes with multiple preset depth modes and supports
easy switching through software configuration.The new Gemini 435Le sensor can guide dimensioning, materials handling, and other processes
Source: OrbbecNew system supports multiple perception modesFor example, in AMR Perception Mode, the camera prioritizes depth data
completeness and stability, optimizing for autonomous mobile robot (AMR) navigation and obstacle avoidance.In Dimensioning Mode, the Gemini
435Le can deliver highly accurate edge imaging of pallets, even in low-light “dark factory” environments or under complex lighting
conditions, said Orbbec.“With versatile functionality consolidated into a single device, Gemini 435Le significantly reduces customers’
hardware costs and simplifies system integration,” the company said
“Users can easily switch modes through a straightforward SDK interface, effectively addressing imaging challenges in emerging, fragmented
application scenarios across industries.”For industrial-grade reliability, the Gemini 435Le features IP67 protection against dust and
water, has passed rigorous electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) testing, operates stably across a wide temperature range (-10°C to 50°C),
and meets ESD Class A standards for vibration and shock resistance
Orbbec said this ensures long-term, dependable operation in harsh industrial environments.Orbbec expands global channel networkAs a key
element of its global business expansion strategy, Orbbec announced new partnerships with five leading technology distributors to
strengthen its worldwide 3D vision ecosystem.Image S: Italy’s leading machine vision system integration and distribution expertPhase 1:

network is a critical step in broadening Orbbec‘s market reach and enhancing customer-support capabilities,” said Mike McSweeney, vice
president of sales at Orbbec. “These new partnerships will help bring our leading 3D vision technology to customers in more regions while
providing localized technical support and service.”The Gemini 435Le will be available for order beginning in June 2025
Through these strategic partnerships, Orbbec said Gemini 435Le and other 3D vision products will be more widely available across Europe and
North America, offering customers streamlined procurement and technical support services.See Orbbec sensors at Automate 2025During Automate
this week, Orbbec plans to show its complete product portfolio at Booth 9004
Technical experts will demonstrate the Gemini 435Le’s performance across multiple real-world applications, the company said.In addition,
Orbbec said it will show its comprehensive 3D vision platform, including a wide range of stereo cameras, lidar products, ODM/OEM
customization services, and integrated solutions developed with leading technology providers.Now accepting session submissions!The post
