Scaling Real-World Data for Physical AI: Orbbec Showcases Robot-Free Data Collection Hardware Platform at ROSCon JP 2026

Share

TSUKUBA, Japan, Aug. 5, 2026 – Orbbec, a leading robotics and AI vision technology company, showcased the Robot-Free Data Collection Hardware Platform for Physical AI at ROSCon JP 2026, marking its first dedicated introduction in Japan.

Leveraging its robotics vision expertise and product breadth, Orbbec is among the few data collection platform providers combining multi-sensor fusion, calibration and synchronization, a full-stack vision portfolio, and global mass-production and delivery capabilities.

 

Covering Key Data Collection Needs

Built around EGO, UMI, and WristCam, the platform supports first-person observation, detailed hand-object interaction, and wrist-level near-field data collection. It can be configured by task type, collector scale, and sensor combination.

Orbbec also provides contract manufacturing and joint design manufacturing services, from volume production for existing designs to joint design covering vision module integration, calibration, synchronization, and mass-production ramp-up.

At ROSCon JP, Orbbec demonstrated live output from its Dual-Ego prototype, featuring dual 2-megapixel fisheye cameras. With synchronization accuracy within 1 ms, a six-axis IMU operating at up to 1,000 Hz and a lightweight 200 g design, Dual-Ego captures aligned visual and motion data for mobile, first-person collection.

In addition, another core product series within the platform, EGO RGB-D series combines chip-level native depth output with LingBot-Depth enhancement to improve depth completeness for transparent, reflective, and other challenging objects.

 

 

Consistency at the Core

Orbbec supports high-quality data collection at scale through four capabilities:

  • High-precision multimodal calibration for spatial consistency: Accurate 3D alignment across RGB, depth, IMU, and other sensors.
  • Hardware-level multi-device synchronized triggering for temporal consistency: Microsecond-level clock synchronization and frame-level alignment.
  • Scaled manufacturing and global delivery for product consistency: Million-unit production experience, digital quality management, and manufacturing capacity in China and Vietnam.
  • Deep technology depth and product breadth for flexible scenario customization: A full-stack matrix spanning RGB, structured light, stereo vision, ToF, and LiDAR.

 

Orbbec has already established strong partnerships with leading Japanese companies. Its 3D vision technologies support Hitachi’s CO-URIBA “hands-free shopping” retail solution and an autonomous hospital logistics robot developed by one of Japan’s top three automakers.

“Japan has an advanced robotics industry and high standards for data quality and deployment,” said Felix Zheng, Managing Director, APAC Region at Orbbec. “We look forward to helping more customers scale real-world data collection efficiently.”
