Description:
3D Vision Lab is part of the Measurement and Experimental Techniques area, in the Mechanical Engineering Department. Our expertise focuses on non-contact measurement techniques, with particular interest in the application of 2D and 3D techniques for computer vision. A key characteristic of is the capability of designing both innovative machine vision hardware and novel algorithms for the data analysis. We cooperate with both academic and industrial partners to develop new solutions, working prototypes or products ready for the market.
High flexibility of the inspection techniques is guaranteed also by the UAVs equipped with 2D and 3D vision system developed in this laboratory.
