Vivo today revealed its Time of Flight (TOF) 3D Sensing Technology at
MWC Shanghai 2018, with the promise of a paradigm shift in imaging, AR
and human-machine interaction, which will elevate consumer lifestyles
with new levels of immersion and smart capability. Vivo’s pioneering TOF
3D Sensing Technology detects the time it takes emitted pulse light to
return to the sensor to accurately map objects at up to three meters in
front of it. It enables new opportunities in facial, gesture and motion
recognition, 3D photography and AR, expanding the capabilities of the
next generation of smart devices.

“From last year’s debut of In-Display Fingerprint Scanning Technology,
the recent launch of the truly bezel-less
Vivo NEX, to our
ground-breaking TOF 3D Sensing technology, we continue to forge ahead
and evolve towards the truly intelligent future by opening new ways for
the AI to help the consumer,” said Alex Feng, Senior Vice President of
Vivo. “By combining TOF 3D Sensing Technology with AI, we will continue
to explore new possibilities for a better future”, he added.
Industry’s Highest Resolution 3D Sensing:
Vivo’s TOF 3D Sensing Technology features industry-leading performance
in depth of information captured with its 300,000 sensor points, which
is 10 times the number of existing Structured Light Technology. This
raises the bar by enabling 3D mapping at up to three meters from the
phone while having a smaller baseline than Structured Light. TOF 3D
Sensing Technology is also simpler and smaller in structure and allows
for more flexibility when embedded in a smartphone. This will enable
much broader application of this technology than was previously
possible.
New Possibilities for Entertainment & Work:
Vivo's TOF 3D Sensing Technology is no mere proof of concept. The
technology is tested and meets industry standards required for
integration with current apps soon. Beyond facial recognition, TOF 3D
Sensing Technology will open up new possibilities for entertainment as
well as work.

Through precise and accurate tracking of gestures and movements of the
user’s entire body, TOF 3D Sensing Technology creates entirely new ways
to interact with and experience the world. Using AI to beautify a photo
according to the entire person is a whole step above current photography
applications.
TOF, AI & AR – The Perfect Combination:
Merging this technology with AR capabilities could take users one step
further and allow them to try on clothes virtually with enhanced 3D
virtual fitting. It can also track gestures for mixed reality (MR) games
and provide an entire new way to immerse yourself in a virtual world
through MR games.
By combining AI recognition with TOF 3D Sensing Technology’s precise
understanding of what it sees, users can even capture entire objects
using 3D modelling. Users can therefore scan and recreate entire objects
digitally. This technology can be used to scan lesson props for
education, or even help scan critical parts of the body for medical
purposes. |
