Intel RealSense D405 Short-Range Camera

The Intel RealSense Depth Camera D405 is purpose-built for close-range computer vision tasks where sub-millimeter precision is paramount. Optimized for an operating range of 7 cm to 50 cm, the D405 uses high-resolution global-shutter depth sensors with active IR stereo technology to detect objects as small as 500 microns at 7 cm distance. Its uniquely compact 42 x 42 x 23 mm form factor and lightweight 72-gram design make it the perfect depth sensor for mounting on robot wrists, end-effectors, and compact inspection heads. Canadian manufacturers in precision assembly, medical device production, and delicate agricultural handling rely on the D405 for trustworthy automated inspections and gentle robotic manipulation. Intel RealSense SDK 2.0 provides comprehensive APIs for depth alignment, point-cloud generation, and spatial mapping.

Integration & Software Ecosystem:

Intel RealSense SDK 2.0 provides comprehensive APIs for depth alignment, point-cloud generation, and spatial mapping, with built-in support for ROS, ROS2, OpenCV, and PCL. The D405's compact square form factor (42 mm) is optimized for mounting on robot wrists and cobot end-effectors, and its global-shutter RGB sensor eliminates rolling-shutter artifacts during fast motion. Active IR projection ensures reliable depth acquisition even on low-texture surfaces common in manufacturing. Dark AI Factories offers Canadian automation integrators robot-mounting bracket designs, cable strain-relief acces, and sample picplace code for Universal Robots and FANUC systems.

What's Included:
