Both the light field and the use of lasers are common imaging methods in Machine Vision. But what is the difference between the two techniques, where are the respective advantages? Unfortunately, neither laser sword nor light show: laser triangulation is a widely used...

Doesn’t structured light already work with a special light field? The answer is a clear no. We clear up this misperception and show what unites the two image capture methods – and what distinguishes them. Monochrome and shimmering surfaces are a horror for...

In industrial machine vision, stereoscopic vision is standard – but it’s not the only way to capture images. Light field technology offers another approach that delivers a more precise result thanks to extensive information. One or the other may...
