Project Difficulties
The difficulties of this solution are as follows:
-
Stable imaging: The vision system is expected to generate quality point clouds despite the high reflectivity of the target objects, which poses great challenges to imaging algorithms.
-
Positioning accuracy: Target objects of this type are thin and narrow. To avoid damaging them, it is necessary to ensure high accuracy in positioning and picking.
-
Object segmentation: The target objects are closely placed together. Without obvious gaps between adjacent target objects, it is difficult to segment them.
