ToF cameras are the preferred method of depth sensing due to their smaller form factor, wider dynamic sensing range, and ability to work in a variety of environments. With the advancement of image sensing technology, to more common applications. ToF technology has been applied to smartphones, consumer electronics and gaming devices, and the future will not be limited to the consumer market. As the technology matures further, there will be opportunities to leverage mainstream manufacturing processes to improve system efficiency from design, manufacturing, and cargo transportation.
At present, logistics, quality inspection, navigation, robotics, face recognition, security, surveillance, safety, medical health and driver monitoring, all these applications have the opportunity to use 3D depth sensing ToF technology to solve many problems that traditional 2D technology cannot do. Combining high-resolution depth data with powerful classification algorithms and AI, tof camera will unlock many new application directions.
