Nowadays there exists a variety of 3D sensing techniques. In order to expand the use of 3D sensing for safety and security applications, it is essential to reduce the size and cost while ensuring reliability. The non-mechanical ranging methodology provides the simplest technique and best solution to meet those requirements.
There are three types of non-mechanical ranging.
- Structured Light: Depth is calculated by Triangulation
- Indirect ToF: Depth is calculated by the signal ratio proportional to the round trip time of light
- Direct ToF: Depth is calculated by directly measuring the round trip time of light
Each type has its own characteristics.
We are currently mass-producing indirect ToF sensors, which have the highest distance accuracy in 1-to-10 m range, aiming to develop applications that provide safety and security by making human situations visible, including biometrics, skeleton detection, condition detection, and behavior prediction.
We are also pursuing the development of direct ToF sensors for a range exceeding 10 m to achieve applications that cover a longer distance.
GPU Technology Conference (GTC) hosted by NVIDIA is the premier AI and deep learning event, being held March 17-21, in San Jose, California.We demonstrated our ToF 3D sensing solution and showcase the evaluation kit for NVIDIA's Jetson Xavier, the AI embedded platform.
"Imaging LiDAR" is an evaluation device for development that uses our 3D ToF Image Sensor based on the concept of "ambient information sensing technology for the autonomous control to achieve smart mobility".
Panasonic semiconductor showcased "Imaging LiDAR". This device senses the ambient information required to enable the autonomous control necessary for achieving smart mobility.
