It is becoming commonplace to find more and more companies excited about adding in some form of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning within their product, system, or facilities. One major focus has been vision and how object detection and motion tracking capabilities can revolutionize robotics, automated production lines, logistics, and more. Using cameras can certainly be a sure-fire way to add great features to products or systems, though sometimes something more is required.
Time of Flight (ToF) technology takes typical 2D optical imaging to the next step, introducing depth mapping for objects and environments within the field of view. This exciting new technology can inevitably hit a barrier when the task goes from ideation to implementation as the hardware designs and the software are quite complex. One large hurdle to pass is constructing the proof-of-concept stage, and the easiest way to alleviate any difficulty is to utilize readily available development platforms and kits that remove the headache and let you start designing effortlessly.
The Analog Devices AD-96TOF1-EBZ is an innovative ToF development kit that pairs with the powerful 96Boards, NVIDIA Jetson, AGX, or Raspberry Pi tools to provide complete visibility into the hardware design. Another option is the AD-FXTOF1-EBZ, which is a ToF module in an optimized form factor, suitable both for prototyping as well as integration into final products. These kits come with a complete open-source software development kit (SDK), full system-level design and additional collateral, application examples, and AI machine vision algorithms to get you started. Using any of these kits, you can start truly experiencing the benefits of ToF sensing, allowing meaningful reactions to surrounding environmental and object position changes.
In a world where people and objects are interacting at an ever-increasing pace, we need to design products that react swiftly with accurate positional data to provide great functionality, service, and most importantly maintain safety. So, whether you are designing an augmented reality system that can recognize gesture controls for dangerous industrial environments, producing autonomous warehouse vehicles to assist in order fulfillment, or utilizing drones to actively avoid and map an area, time of flight is key and the AD-96TOF1-EBZ or the AD-FXTOF1-EBZ kits can help jumpstart your development.
