White Paper Overview

Robotics is transforming industries, and image sensors are at the core of that change. From warehouse automation to delivery and service robots, mobile robotics like AMRs and AGVs are reshaping how work gets done. This white paper explores the role of image sensors in enabling autonomy, obstacle avoidance, and real-time decision-making in robotic systems—especially those navigating dynamic, complex spaces.

Dive into the sensing technologies that power today’s mobile robots. Learn how image sensors contribute to 3D mapping, simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM), and depth detection. The paper compares rolling and global shutter technologies, explaining how motion artifacts, shutter efficiency, and pixel size affect sensor choice. It also breaks down the benefits of key technologies like iToF, LiDAR, and stereo imaging—critical for enabling reliable depth sensing in fast-paced industrial and commercial environments.
