Hardware description
4.3.1 Sensor
The Ranger3 camera is based on a unique SICK CMOS sensor which has a 2D pixel
matrix, row-parallel AD-converters, and a processor architecture that enables image
processing directly on the sensor. The technology is called ROCC, which means Rapid
On-Chip Calculation. For technical details, see "Technical data", page 80.
