Raytrix light field 3D cameras offer

Completely New Possibilities

With a single Raytrix light field 3D camera you can capture both: 3D object surface and the 2D object image. The patented micro lens array design used in Raytrix cameras extends the depth-of-field compared to standard cameras and offers a high effective resolution, which makes them the highest resolving light field cameras on the market.

  • 2D & 3D data from a single camera

    A standard 2D image and the 3D surface profile can be calculated from a single exposure with a single Raytrix camera.

  • Fast image capture

    Since only a single image is needed, images can be taken at high frame rates also with flash light.

  • Goes where other 3D systems can’t go

    Ideally suited for small objects or deep-seated structures.

  • Single camera, single exposure

    Capture 2D & 3D data with a single camera in a single exposure.

  • Measure in all dimensions

    Metric calibration of the light field camera allows you to measure in all three dimensions: pin heights and pin 2D positions.

  • Independent of Pin Material

Microscopic dimensions

3D Bonding Wire Inspection

  • Inspect microscopic parts

    With our light field cameras for microscopes you can inspect microscopic parts in 3D – with a single shot, a standard microscope and no special lighting.

  • Extended Depth-of-Field

    The patented multi-focus light field technology increases the depth-of-field dramatically.

  • Metric Calibration

    The software RxLive makes it easy to metrically calibrate the microscope light field system, enabling you to measure directly in the recorded images.

  • Single camera, single exposure

    Capture 2D & 3D data with a single camera in a single exposure.

  • Measure in all dimensions

    Metric calibration of the light field camera allows you to measure in all three dimensions to create an exact copy in all three dimensions.

  • No special lighting

    The 3D surface model can be generated with standard light if the object surface offers sufficient structure.

  • Security Key Top View

    Security key has indentations on its side. To duplicate key one needs to know the exact position and depth.

No Compromises

All with one camera

Single Camera

Only a single Raytrix light field camera is needed to capture a 2D image and 3D data in a single shot.

Metric Calibration

Raytrix cameras can be easily metrically calibrated using the Raytrix software RxLive.

Robust

Camera does not become de-calibrated by shaking or moving it.

High Resolution

Raytrix cameras offer a maximal effective resolution of one quarter of the sensor resolution, which makes them the highest resolving light field cameras on the market.

Precision

The measurement volume depends on the lens chosen and the focus setting. For example, the R42 focused to 100mm distance with a field-of-view of approx. 50x35mm, results in a depth-of-field of approx. 10mm, a lateral resolution of 0.02mm and a depth resolution of about 0.1mm. In general, the depth resolution is about 1% of the total measurement depth range.

3D Analysis Software

Raytrix developed the software RxLive that allows you to easily compute and analyze the recorded light field images.
