Compared to 2D imaging technology, 3D camera imaging technology can record the depth values of the target object, enhancing the ability to recognize the target. Among them, 3D Time-of-Flight (ToF) camera imaging technology is cost-effective, has a wide frame rate threshold range, better real-time performance, low system computing power requirements, and is suitable for capturing moving targets. It effectively resolves issues such as motion blur, making its application in the field of industrial 3D camera recognition increasingly widespread. This article mainly introduces the imaging performance of the Vzense NYX series ToF cameras in moving scenarios. This series of cameras, based on the pulsed indirect Time of Flight (P-iToF) working principle, provide well imaging performance for moving targets and are characterized by their ability to easily capture the trajectories of fast-moving objects.

Product introduction
The Vzense NYX series includes two products, the NYX650 and NYX660, which use P-iToF technology combined with a global shutter exposure lens, making it easy to capture the trajectories of fast-moving objects. Additionally, this series of cameras features strong light resistance, prevention of rang aliasing, and multi-machine coexistence. The cameras are designed to industrial standards, providing high reliability and stability. The bottom of the cameras has a dual mounting screw hole design, facilitating structural integration and fixing. There is an optional waterproof design with aviation plugs, supporting IP67 high protection level. This article tests the NYX650, as the imaging performance of the NYX660 is identical to the NYX650, so the performance of the NYX650 can represent that of the NYX660.

Summary
From the imaging results demonstrated above, it is clear that when capturing moving objects, the NYX series cameras based on P-iToF technology can achieve complete imaging, effectively solving the motion blur problem. With a maximum frame rate of up to 30 frames per second, they are suitable for capturing the trajectories of moving targets and can be widely applied in scenarios requiring high dynamic imaging performance.
