Stereo vision system increases safety in industrial machinery applications

Blaxtair is a stereo vision system that detects pedestrians in mobile industrial machinery applications and can be used to secure the surroundings of dangerous stationary machines as well. Blaxtair’s sensor head contains two RGB CMOS image sensors (1 MPixel each), a lens providing a 130° field of view, and an FPGA and ARM processor for 3D scene computation and analysis. Blaxtair detects pedestrians within a range of 0 to 6 meters around the machines, and will set off an alarm (audible, included in the Blaxtair monitor, or as a separate device, as well as a visual alarm installed in a cabin) if there is a risk of collision. Algorithms developed by CEA LIST, a laboratory of the French CEA organization, are utilized by Blaxtair to detect and locate obstacles using triangulation and a shape analysis of the obstacles determines whether they are pedestrians or not.
