Overhead Camera Mount for SO-ARM100/SO-ARM101 Robotic Arm Realsense Compatible
Product Overview
The LeRobot Overhead Camera Mount Kit is a standardized vision acquisition solution designed exclusively for SO-ARM100/101 robotic arms, eliminating the hassle of custom camera mounting and inconsistent data collection caused by non-standard positioning in embodied intelligence development.Available in 6 flexible configurations with optional auto-focus RGB camera or D405C depth camera (RealSense D405 equivalent), it supports both single and dual follower arm setups, delivers consistent top-down panoramic view of the entire working area, and can be combined with arm-mounted cameras for multi-perspective vision acquisition without repeated position adjustment.
Key Advantages
-
Standardized Positioning for Consistent Datasets
Precisely calibrated mounting holes and fixed arm spacing ensure uniform camera positioning across all user setups, eliminating data inconsistency issues that break AI model generalization. Trusted by 2000+ LeRobot developers worldwide for standardized dataset collection.
-
Multi-Perspective Vision Support
Supports overhead + arm-mounted camera combinations for full coverage of the robotic work area, no need for additional mounting brackets or adjustment. D405C depth camera option provides sub-millimeter 3D perception for advanced manipulation tasks.
-
D405C Depth Camera (D405 Equivalent)
Uses the same RealSense D401 sensor module as official D405, delivers 0.1mm detection accuracy at 7cm working distance, 87°×58° FOV, up to 90fps depth output at 640×360 resolution, at 30% lower cost than official D405.
-
Dual Focus Mode Switchable
Auto-focus mode for arm-mounted dynamic operations (real-time target tracking during grasping), fixed-focus mode for overhead static monitoring (stable image without shift from vibration), adapts to all use cases.
-
Plug-and-Play Compatibility
Fully compatible with SO-ARM100 and SO-ARM101 single/dual follower arm setups, all assembly hardware included, no custom modification required.
