Developers, hobbyists and electronic enthusiasts who
would like to add 3D vision to their next project may be interested in two new
realSense depth cameras unveiled by Intel this week in the form of the D415 and
D435. Designed to add 3D vision technology to any prototype development or
end-user ready device or machine the new cameras come equipped with a D400
depth module Intel RealSense vision processor D4. Enabling them to process
complex depth data in real time.
Intel is also made available the cross-platform
open-source Intel RealSense SDK 2.0, enabling the cameras to be used both
indoors and outdoors in any lighting environment, explains Intel. The embedded
vision processor uses 28nm technology and supports up to 5 MIPI Camera Serial
Interface 2 connections to process real-time depth images and increase output
performance.
Features of the new range of realSense depth cameras
include image sensors capable of capturing disparity between images up to a
resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels, a dedicated colour image signal processor for
image adjustments and scaling colour data, an active infrared projector to
illuminate objects and enhance the depth data in any lighting condition.
Both the Intel RealSense D415 and D435 Depth Cameras
are now available to preorder directly from the Intel online store priced at US$ 150 and US$ 179 respectively.
