At ProMat 2025 , a premier logistics and supply chain trade show held in Chicago, Orbbec , a global leader in robotics and AI vision, introduced two groundbreaking products: the Gemini 335Le , an Ethernet-enabled stereo vision camera, and the Pulsar SL450 , a cost-effective single-line LiDAR sensor. These innovations are set to revolutionize industrial robotics and advanced navigation systems by delivering unparalleled precision, reliability, and versatility.
Gemini 335Le: A Game-Changer for Industrial Robotics
The Gemini 335Le is the latest addition to Orbbec’s acclaimed Gemini 330 Series , designed specifically for industrial robotic applications such as autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), forklifts, and robotic arms. With its Ethernet connectivity , the Gemini 335Le becomes part of the first suite of stereo vision cameras to support all three mainstream interfaces—USB3, GMSL2, and Ethernet—marking a significant milestone in the industry.
This versatility ensures that customers can integrate high-quality depth sensing into their robotic designs regardless of interface preferences. By meeting current demands and anticipating future needs, Orbbec is pushing the boundaries of vision solutions for next-generation robotics.
Key Features of Gemini 335Le:
- Industrial-Grade Interfaces : The camera features M12 X-Coded and M8 A-Coded connectors. The M12 X-coded interface supports simultaneous data and power delivery over distances up to 100 meters, while the M8 A-coded interface enables DC power supply, multi-device synchronization, and RS-485 communication.
- Durability in Harsh Environments : Rated IP67 , the Gemini 335Le is dustproof, waterproof, and resistant to extreme temperatures and varying lighting conditions, making it ideal for challenging industrial settings.
- Easy Integration : Using industry-standard protocols like Power over Ethernet (PoE) and Precision Time Protocol (PTP) , the Gemini 335Le simplifies setup with just a single cable for both power and data transmission.
- Comprehensive Ecosystem Support : The camera includes an open-source SDK, compatibility with ROS1/ROS2 , and pre-integration with NVIDIA Jetson platforms like AGX Orin, Orin NX, Orin Nano, and AGX Xavier for AI-powered edge computing.
Visitors to ProMat 2025 can experience the Gemini 335Le firsthand at Orbbec’s booth (Lakeside Center, Hall D — E12457 ) through live demonstrations showcasing its capabilities in real-world industrial scenarios.
Pulsar SL450: Redefining Robotic Navigation with LiDAR Technology
Alongside the Gemini 335Le, Orbbec unveiled the Pulsar SL450 , a cutting-edge single-line LiDAR sensor designed for advanced robotic navigation. Leveraging direct Time of Flight (dToF) technology, the Pulsar SL450 delivers exceptional accuracy and reliability, making it a perfect fit for applications in logistics, security, and 3D reconstruction.
Key Features of Pulsar SL450:
- Wide Scanning Range and Long Detection Capability : With a 270° scanning range and detection capability of up to 45 meters , the Pulsar SL450 ensures precise positioning and mapping for AMRs, autonomous forklifts, and commercial service robots.
- High-Density Point Cloud Scanning : Offering a scanning frequency of up to 72 kHz and an angular resolution of 0.075° , the Pulsar SL450 provides detailed surface detection even in complex environments.
- Robust Performance in Challenging Conditions : Its multi-echo design ensures accurate data feedback in dusty or foggy environments, maintaining consistent mapping across units for uniform results.
The Pulsar SL450 represents Orbbec’s commitment to delivering cost-effective yet high-performance LiDAR solutions tailored for modern industrial and commercial applications.
