PMD Camera Enhances 3-D Imaging
Nov 5, 2014 — A CMOS-architecture imaging array where each pixel is a photonic mixer device overcomes challenges in 3-D image capture. Gauging the distance, size and shape of an object is of paramount and self-evident practical importance in everyday life. Nature has evolved a variety of ways for organisms to obtain 3-D information: stereoscopic vision utilizing two or more eyes, and sonar ranging are two examples. Extending this ability to inanimate systems such as robots, “decision makers”
