🟧 EpicEye Camera

Function Description

This operator can establish connections by specifying camera IP and port numbers, configure camera parameters (such as exposure time), and trigger camera shooting to obtain data.

Usage Scenarios

Can directly connect to real cameras or virtual cameras for photography and data collection.

Input Output

Input

Empty input.

Output

Image: 2D image captured by the camera under current parameters.

Point Cloud: 3D point cloud data captured by the camera under current parameters, containing only XYZ coordinate information for each point.

Camera Intrinsics: A 3x3 matrix that can project 3D points in camera coordinate system to 2D image plane.

Camera Distortion: Distortion coefficient list used to describe and correct image distortion caused by lens physical characteristics.

Parameter Description

Camera IP

Parameter Description

Specify the IP address of the EpicEye camera for camera connection.

Parameter Adjustment

Please set the IP address correctly to ensure successful camera connection. Wrong settings will lead to connection failure. Default value is "127.0.0.1". Camera IP addresses can be obtained through different methods such as soft camera IP management tools, Epic Pro camera search tools, etc.

Camera Port

Parameter Description

Specify the port number of the EpicEye camera for data communication.

Parameter Adjustment

Please enter the correct port number to ensure normal communication. Wrong settings will lead to connection failure and affect data acquisition. If there are no special modifications, use the default value "5000".

2D Exposure Time

Parameter Description

Set the camera’s exposure time for collecting 2D images.

Parameter Adjustment

Appropriate exposure time can improve image quality. Too high may cause overexposure or blur, too low may cause images to be too dark.

Parameter Range

[0,2000], Default value: 100

3D Exposure Time

Parameter Description

Set the camera’s exposure time for collecting 3D point clouds.

Parameter Adjustment

Appropriate 3D exposure time can improve quality and completeness of point cloud data. Too high may increase noise, too low may cause point cloud missing.

Parameter Range

[0,300], Default value: 10
