US Patent 12128571 3D computer-vision system with variable spatial resolution

One embodiment can provide a robotic system. The robotic system can include a robotic arm comprising an end-effector, a robotic controller configured to control movements of the robotic arm, and a dual-resolution computer-vision system. The dual-resolution computer-vision system can include a low-resolution three-dimensional (3D) camera module and a high-resolution 3D camera module. The low-resolution 3D camera module and the high-resolution 3D camera module can be arranged in such a way that a viewing region of the high-resolution 3D camera module is located inside a viewing region of the low-resolution 3D camera module, thereby allowing the dual-resolution computer-vision system to provide 3D visual information associated with the end-effector in two different resolutions when at least a portion of the end-effector enters the viewing region of the high-resolution camera module.
