If you need to measure a distance, it is tempting to reach for the ubiquitous ultrasonic module like an HC-SR04. These work well, and they are reasonably easy to use. However, they aren’t without ...

You can do all kinds of wonderful things with cameras and image recognition. However, sometimes spatial data is useful, too. As [madmcu] demonstrates, you can use depth data from a time-of-flight ...

Geneva, June 9, 2022 – STMicroelectronics (NYSE: STM), a global semiconductor leader serving customers across the spectrum of electronics applications, has announced its newest Flight Sense ™ ...

Osram has created an optical time-of-flight sensor with a 48 x 32 pixel receiving array that builds up a 1,536 point depth map as wide as 80° and at ranges from 10mm to 11m. “It is designed to detect ...

Automated inventory storage-andretrieval systems rely on error-free position sensing of overhead cranes and vertical lifts. Laser distance or displacement sensors use timeof-flight sensing to handle ...

CMOS image sensors have become a cornerstone of modern imaging, leveraging the advantages of low power consumption, high speed, and scalability inherent in complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor ...

The various ways your PC-screen “privacy” can be compromised. How a sensitive time-of-flight (ToF) transducer can be a critical privacy (and power-saving) building block. The many circumstances for ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics. Microsoft’s Kinect introduced XBox 360 gamers to 3D sensors and body gesture recognition. It utilized technology from PrimeSense that ...
