SICK Visionary-T-Mini
3D machine vision has never been easier
The compact Visionary-T Mini 3D snapshot cameras from SICK with their simple operation and excellent data quality provide the solution to virtually all industrial 3D machine vision requirements. Thanks to the advanced 3D time-of-flight technology, each pixel delivers extremely accurate depth and intensity data. The camera captures its surroundings extremely reliably even in strong light/dark contrast conditions and at long distances, and delivers precise data even for moving objects thanks to its very short image capture time. A clearly structured configuration tool makes it easy to parameterize the device and flexibly adapt the data to the specific application. This makes Visionary-T Mini an ideal, cost-efficient solution, e.g., for logistics, robotics or industrial vehicles.

Compact housing and outstanding data quality thanks to 3D time-of-flight technology
Automation applications for robotics, transport vehicles and logistics depend on precise and reliable 2D and 3D distance data. Vision systems need to be able to be effortlessly integrated into the particular machine design even when space is at a premium. The Visionary-T Mini product family combines performance with a compact construction and very high cost efficiency. For data evaluation, the 3D vision sensor provides, amongst other things, detailed 2D and 3D point clouds with a high pixel density. Automatic operating modes make it easier to integrate the device into a machine and ensure ease of use.
Compact design, excellent data quality, and user-friendly operating modes for ease of use
Cost-efficient solution for a multitude of 3D applications: The compact Visionary-T Mini can be integrated into almost any machine design and tailored to the application. The sensor provides a reliable data basis for demanding applications.
At home in countless industrial applications
The Visionary-T Mini 3D vision sensor was developed especially for fast 3D environment perception in dynamic industrial applications. Example: When used in an automated guided vehicle system (AGV), the sensor records its environment at 30 images per seconds and does so over large distances. It thereby delivers continuous data for AGV system or object positioning. In robotics applications, the 2D and 3D images can be used, for example, as a basis for palletizing and picking tasks. The Visionary-T Mini can also be reliably used in static applications such as completeness checks at packaging machines.
During data integration, the Visionary-T Mini CX variant provides quick access to custom pre-configured and pre-filtered data. The Visionary-T Mini AP variant is programmable. This even makes it possible to perform custom further processing of data on the sensor and to solve applications partially or even fully on the sensor.
3D data acquisition in a dynamic environment, precise measurement data, and reliable object detection
The Visionary-T Mini ensures more efficiency in industrial production wherever reliable 3D depth values for dynamic processes are needed.
Precise 3D data in real time – thanks to time-of-flight technology
The Visionary-T Mini uses the latest time-of-flight technology to measure distances. This method involves emitting modulated infrared light that is then reflected back in the direction of the sensor by an object. The distance between the sensor and object can be calculated precisely based on the phase shift of the light. Different phase shifts equate to different distances. The individual pixels thereby deliver a detailed, three-dimensional distance and infrared intensity image of the recorded area.
