LIPSedge AE430 vs AE450: shutter type, IP rating and weight

Asked as: “For a dock-door project, compare the LIPSedge AE430 and AE450 on shutter type, IP rating and weight.”

Here's the comparison of the two LIPSedge active stereo depth cameras on the attributes you asked about:

For a dock-door deployment, the AE450's global shutter and IP67 rating are the distinguishing factors — a global shutter avoids motion distortion on fast-moving vehicles or pallets through the doorway, and IP67 gives it strong protection against dust and water ingress at the door. The trade-off is that it weighs about 390 g more than the AE430. If you need the AE430's IP rating for a wet or dusty dock environment, I couldn't find it listed in the catalog, so I'd recommend confirming ingress protection directly with LIPS or checking the AE430 datasheet before committing to it; the AE450 datasheet is also available for full details.
