Zivid 2M+ 60 leads commercial depth sensors in medical accuracy tests

A new research paper compares the accuracy of four commercial depth sensors for medical applications. The study evaluated stereo, structured-light, and time-of-flight sensors on various specimens, including bone, tissue, and a phantom, to assess performance under challenging conditions like homogeneous and specular surfaces. The Zivid 2M+ 60 sensor demonstrated the best overall accuracy across all tested objects and metrics. AI

IMPACT This research could inform the selection of depth sensing hardware for AI-driven medical imaging and surgical robotics.
