Structured Light 3D Camera Market Forecasts to 2030 – Global Analysis By Type (Stereo Vision Systems, Time-of-Flight Cameras, Handheld 3D Scanners and Other Types), Technology, Application and By Geography


According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Structured Light 3D Camera Market is growing at a CAGR of 21.3% during the forecast period. A Structured Light 3D Camera is a type of imaging device that uses projected patterns of light onto a scene or object to capture and create a three-dimensional representation of its surface. This technology is commonly used in various applications such as 3D scanning, computer vision, industrial metrology, robotics, and augmented reality. The light projector emits a known pattern onto the object or scene, and the camera captures the distorted pattern based on the object's surface geometry. By analyzing the deformation of the projected pattern, the 3D camera can calculate the depth information for each point in the captured image, thus creating a detailed 3D model.

According to the IFR (International Federation of Robotics), the 2022 World Robotics report revealed an all-time high of 517,385 new industrial robots installed in companies around the world in 2021.
