With the various competitions of smartphones, especially in terms of cameras, wide-angle camera modules, telephoto camera modules, periscope telephoto camera modules, 3D camera modules, portrait camera modules, punch-hole camera modules, etc., of course A new term ToF camera module, in fact, this is not a new technology, it has been applied in some previous flagship mobile phones. So what is a ToF camera module?
Principle of ToF technology
According to the ToF camera, a set of data with depth is calculated. The effective depth information points of the ToF camera module reach 300,000, so that various applications can be done through the 3D model.
ToF camera module can make the depth of field more realistic when taking photos, no longer rely on algorithms to blur the background, and is more accurate in object recognition. The camera module can scan the objects in front, recognize gestures, indoor navigation, etc., to enhance the perception ability of the smartphone.The AR experience will definitely be improved. In some games with AR, the ToF camera module can also recognize human posture and gestures more accurately, and in some applications that require deep scanning, it can also highlight the details. In fact, ToF camera modules have been applied in various fields, such as UAV obstacle avoidance, obstacle avoidance of driverless cars or robots, automatic handling of robotic arms, medical monitoring and so on.
