Seegrid to Sponsor Robotics Solutions Webcast on June 3, 2014

Seegrid, makers of automated guided vehicles (AGVs), is sponsoring an upcoming Robotics Solutions webcast for Warehouses and Fulfillment Centers on Tuesday, June 3 at 2:00 pm EST. Mitchell Weiss, Chief Operating Officer for Seegrid, will also serve as one of the panelists.

The webcast will address flexible and reliable robotic picking, handling, depalletizing, and palletizing solutions for wholesale, food service, and retail store replenishment and maximize order fulfillment efficiency. The webinar will also cover the labor cost savings through increased reliability, line speed, workplace safety, and order accuracy. This webcast presents an overview of robots and automation: together with monitoring, controlling, and supporting robot solutions for peak performance.


Weiss has extensive experience as a Senior Executive at High Technology robotics and automation companies. He has been involved in significant installed base of automation systems in semiconductor manufacturing, electronics manufacturing, automotive, and warehousing and distribution. Weiss is accomplished in product design and development. Additionally, Weiss holds twenty patents.

Dan Kara, Chief Research Officer, Myria RAS, addresses questions during this exclusive live webcast. He will offer an industry-wide look at how robots with advanced vision systems and robotic arm technologies are driving change in the entire goods-to-man process flow, which are leading to the inevitable reality of the "lights out warehouse."

3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!

3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!

This compact 3D camera series combines a very short working distance, a large field of view and a high depth of field - perfect for bin picking applications. With its ability to capture multiple objects over a large area, it can help robots empty containers more efficiently. Now available from IDS Imaging Development Systems. In the color version of the Ensenso B, the stereo system is equipped with two RGB image sensors. This saves additional sensors and reduces installation space and hardware costs. Now, you can also choose your model to be equipped with two 5 MP mono sensors, achieving impressively high spatial precision. With enhanced sharpness and accuracy, you can tackle applications where absolute precision is essential. The great strength of the Ensenso B lies in the very precise detection of objects at close range. It offers a wide field of view and an impressively high depth of field. This means that the area in which an object is in focus is unusually large. At a distance of 30 centimetres between the camera and the object, the Z-accuracy is approx. 0.1 millimetres. The maximum working distance is 2 meters. This 3D camera series complies with protection class IP65/67 and is ideal for use in industrial environments.
