  • Patent number: 11947013
    Abstract: Described herein is a detector for identifying at least one material property m. The detector includes at least one sensor element including a matrix of optical sensors, the optical sensors each having a light-sensitive area. The sensor element is configured for recording at least one reflection image of a light beam originating from at least one object. The detector includes at least one evaluation device configured for determining the material property by evaluation of at least one beam profile of the reflection image.

  • Publication number: 20230078604
    Abstract: A detector for object recognition includes an illumination source for projecting an illumination pattern on an area including at least one object; an optical sensor having a light-sensitive area and configured for determining a first image including a two-dimensional image of the area, and a second image including a plurality of reflection features generated in response to illumination, each reflection feature including a beam profile; an evaluation device for determining beam profile information for each reflection feature by analyzing their beam profiles, determining a three-dimensional image using the determined beam profile information, identifying the reflection features located inside and/or outside an image region, determining a depth level from the beam profile information of the reflection features located inside and/or outside of the image region, determining a material property of the object from the beam profile information, and determining a position and/or orientation of the object.
