Hi all,

We are making flexible feeders (vibrating platforms) and our feeders could be a good match with your wirst camera.
In order to manage correctly our feeder, the following information are requested :
- number of parts on the platform (in order to manage the hopper correctly and add the correct amount of parts onto the feeder)
- position of the gravitiy center (agglomerate) of parts on the platform (see example below where the parts are all on the left side of the feeder)

zoom

so my question to you is :
is it possible to get this information from your wirst camera ? I know that it is possible to get the coordinates of 1 part in the field of view of the camera, but in our situation, we will have much more parts ...

Thanks for your answers !
Aymeric

@Aymeric very interesting post, thank you, as of today the Wrist Camera can only input the target robot pose for a single part and will not be able to output more. I've sent your request to our product manager.
