Modulator Enables Simple Cameras to Capture Images in 3D
A team at Stanford University has developed a device that that enables lidar functionality with ordinary CMOS image sensors. The device makes it possible to obtain 3D data from technology that, on its own, is capable of seeing only in two dimensions. The team envisions the technology finding use in applications such as self-driving cars, drones, and extraterrestrial rovers.
