Review Orbec Persee. Better than a nettop

During the announcement of the device manufacturers themselves prototype called Orbec Persee 3d-camera with built-in computer. That is, it is not a computer with a camera, namely the camera with a computer. What is the difference? The difference in potential applications. If in the case of computer gadget you put on the table near the monitor and type on the keyboard, in the case of a camera are all a little different.

Applications Orbec Persee

Developers named areas in which their device will be most productive. For all creative individuals chamber opens up new possibilities in the creation of content – more interesting presentations, high-quality photos and drawings by scanning objects, new opportunities for 3D-construction. Further, the camera is ideal for home – turn on or off lights, adjust the audio system, switch tracks without going to the console, turn on or off the power. The platform is ideal for research and 3D-printing, you can scan any object in detail, refine it in a professional application, and then print it. Ideal for medical, engineering and other areas that use volume printing. The last point is the ability to code – the camera much, you only need to create your application and perform the tasks that you want.

The case design Orbec Persee

On the front of the camera to the left-to-right: microphone, projector, depth sensor, RGB sensor, motion sensor, microphone. Two microphones are installed for noise reduction and better manage the voice commands. The projector uses clear why, but the depth of the sensor this is the part that allows you to scan 2D and 3D objects. Next comes the sensor responsible for the recognition of the color palette and ambient sensor that detects motion. The motion sensor has a breadth of 0.4 to 8 meters, so you can operate the camera even with the other end of the huge room.

Specifications Orbec Persee

Responsible for the graphics controller built Mali 600 MHz and support the performance of the platform as a whole will be memory of 2 gigabytes. It is worth noting that the camera module is equipped with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, a port Ethernet, memory card slot, a USB port and microUSB, as well as a full-size HDMI.

Results Orbec Persee
