Zivid

Zivid designs and manufactures industrial 3D colour cameras and accompanying software, based on structured light 3D imaging, that serve as the eyes of robots in manufacturing and logistics. The company is a pure-play provider of structured light-based industrial 3D vision, combining 3D computer vision, machine vision and robot perception software to let automated systems perceive and handle objects in real industrial environments.

Its cameras are built for autonomous industrial robot cells, cobot cells and other automation systems, and are designed to cope with transparent, reflective, dark and highly variable objects. The 3D vision software supplied with the cameras is intended to help robots manage the complexity of real environments, so that picking is faster and operation more reliable. Applications include bin picking and material handling, assembly, machine tending, depalletization, inspection and parcel induction.

The company serves a diverse global customer base and maintains offices in six countries, with its origins in Norway. It describes itself as one of Norway's most ambitious new technology companies, with a stated focus on shaping the future of machine vision and robotics automation.
