Basler AG and Orbbec Launch Technology Partnership for Industrial 3D Vision in Logistics and Factory Automation

Date
March 25, 2026

The first result of the partnership is the Basler Stereo mini 3D camera, which will be presented at LogiMAT 2026.

Basler AG, a leading provider of machine vision components and solutions, and Orbbec Inc., a 3D vision technology and robotics specialist, have announced a strategic partnership to develop industrial 3D solutions for factory and logistics automation. The first result of this partnership will be presented at LogiMAT 2026 (the international trade fair for logistics): the Basler Stereo mini camera. This new camera expands Basler's existing 3D portfolio and enables numerous applications, such as those involving autonomous mobile robots (AMRs/AGVs).

Basler AG and Orbbec Inc. are combining their expertise with the aim of providing OEMs and system integrators with cost-effective solutions, long-term availability, and consistent software integration via Basler pylon. Basler offers a proven industrial ecosystem consisting of a comprehensive portfolio of vision solutions from a single source, including cameras, vision software, and compatible accessories. This is supported by global sales and support.

The Stereo mini camera, developed as part of the partnership, benefits from deep integration with Basler's pylon SDK. This allows industrial users and system integrators to integrate the camera directly into existing vision workflows. The companies plan to expand their collaboration further in the future to develop additional industrial 3D solutions.

The collaboration with Orbbec strengthens Basler's 3D portfolio

"With Orbbec as our technology partner, we are specifically strengthening our 3D portfolio. With the Basler Stereo mini camera, we are expanding our range of solutions in the field of navigation, obstacle detection, and environment mapping for autonomous mobile robots. The Basler Stereo Mini is also well suited for general 3D applications where price-performance and small size are important factors."
