Time of Flight (ToF) Sensors
Time-of-Flight 3D sensing technology which is able to resolve distance between the camera and an object for each point of the scanned image, by measuring the time between emission of a light signal provided by a laser (VCSEL) and detection of the reflected signal. Measurement can be achieved via a direct (dToF) or an indirect (iToF) method requiring different sensing systems.
