In Chicago this week, Orbbec showed off its latest 3D vision products to meet growing industry demand for intelligent automation. The Shenzhen, China-based company said it has tailored its industrial-grade 3D cameras for challenging scenarios. Its portfolio also includes integrated AI systems designed to enhance robotic perception capabilities.
As industrial vision increasingly converges with edge AI , Orbbec said it has combined high-precision 3D vision hardware with an advanced AI model. The company claimed that this improves robots’ spatial perception and environmental understanding, helping overcome sensing challenges in complex industrial scenarios.
Common automation bottlenecks where conventional 3D vision hardware often struggles include transparent objects, low-texture or repetitive-patterned surfaces such as white walls and fences, and highly reflective materials. Orbbec has partnered with Robbyant , also known as Ant Group, to introduce the LingBot-Depth for Gemini 330 Series.
The companies said the LingBot Enhanced Depth Filter offers key performance breakthroughs:

To address key industrial challenges in precision assembly, dynamic warehousing, and vibration-heavy environments, Orbbec presented demonstrations for demanding industrial applications at Automate 2026.
Designed for demanding industrial assembly and inspection , Orbbec exhibited its customizable 3D DLP structured light camera, delivering approximately 0.07 mm VDI/VDE accuracy and 0.05 mm Z-repeatability at 0.5 m. The camera has a compact, lightweight form factor optimized for integration with robotic arms.
In addition, Orbbec said its camera outputs high-resolution RGB data to support AI-driven object detection and deep learning. It also offers adaptive multi-mode capture, including fast, high-reflectivity, and accurate modes, to balance high-speed capture with precise 3D reconstruction across complex industrial scenarios.

Orbbec demonstrated an automated forklift powered by its latest industrial-grade stereo 3D camera, the Gemini 435Le. By delivering low-noise, high-density depth data in dynamic environments and supporting stable localization, navigation, and obstacle avoidance, the system can reliably detect forklift forks and ground-level obstacles, improving both operational safety and efficiency, it said.
