ToF cameras are powerful solution that provides high depth accuracy for applications requiring high quality 3D information. There are many factors to consider in order to ensure optimum performance levels. Factors such as modulation frequency, demodulation contrast, quantum efficiency, and readout noise determine image sensor performance. Other factors are system-level considerations, including lighting subsystems, optical design, power management, and deep processing algorithms. All these system-level components are essential to achieve the highest precision 3D ToF camera system.
What are the parts of a ToF camera?
Light sources, such as vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELs) or edge emitting laser diodes, emit light in the near infrared domain. The most commonly used wavelengths are 850 nm and 940 nm. The light source is usually a diffuse source (flood lighting) that emits a beam of light with some divergence to illuminate the scene in front of the camera.
A laser driver, which modulates the intensity of the light emitted by the light source.
A sensor with an array of pixels that collects return light from the scene and outputs a value for each pixel.
lens, which focuses the return light onto the sensor array.
