Intel has already launched two new RealSense cameras that belong to the D400 series.. The two models that the firm has launched are prepared to connect to a device and thus provide it with 3D vision. Apparently, the idea of the company is that any device can obtain this vision in 3D. The models presented are the RealSense D415 and D435.
Both camera models stand out for being easy to use. In addition, they connect to any computer via USB, making it easy to connect them to any computer. With these models Intel is looking to capitalize on the popularity of augmented and mixed realities.
In this way, the company enters fully into a market segment that has been growing significantly in recent years. They have opted to develop solutions with these technologies. In addition, cameras with depth sensors are needed for these realities. Just what Intel has released.
Both models have depth sensors used for stereo viewing to calculate the depth of what they see. In addition, they also have a RGB sensor to scale the color data. Also with a infrared projector With which to illuminate objects and improve the depth data recorded by the cameras itself. The resolution is HD, but also 1280 x 720, with 90 fps and a maximum range of about 10 meters. They have a 4 nanometer vision D28 processor.
In addition, the company itself has commented that these cameras are aimed at software developers or those in charge of creating hardware prototypes using this technology. So they can be used in various processors. In addition to devices that can benefit from this 3D view.
Intel's plans also include offering these RealSense cameras to education professionals. Since they are easy-to-use cameras and can be connected to the computer by USB, they can give new uses in this field. Although it is not known very well how it is intended to integrate them in this sector. Not if there is enough need or knowledge in it to use them.
The two Intel cameras are already available on the company's website. The D415 is priced at $ 149. While the D435 is priced at $ 179. They are available on the Intel website and can be purchased from countries such as Spain or Mexico without problems.
