Introducing a toolkit for building immersive worlds with ToF AR

We are proud to introduce the ToF AR toolkit for AR developers. Developers can now download the toolkit as a library to efficiently develop Unity AR applications and as in-device apps for supported Android and iOS devices.

Use the 3D iToF sensor/Lidar Sensors

ToF AR uses the back-illuminated Time of Flight (ToF) 3D image sensor to obtain high-precision and high-resolution 3D depth information in real time. ToF AR can also use the Lidar sensor on supported iPhone and iPad models.

ToF is a system to measure the distance (depth information) to the target by emitting optical pulses from an emitter (laser source) onto the object and detecting how long it takes for the reflected light to reach the sensor (time difference). The distance information is obtained per pixel, enabling high-precision, high-resolution 3D depth information to be generated in real time. This is ideal for 3D scanning and 3D face recognition, as well as autofocus assistance and bokeh effect for cameras.

The ToF AR toolkit supports a number of devices from Sony, Samsung, Huawei, and Apple. See Compatible devices for an ever-expanding list of makes and models.

Download the ToF AR toolkit

The ToF AR toolkit expands the scope of the ToF sensor to support the fast-developing technologies of Augmented Reality (AR) and Mixed Reality (MR) with greater precision and detail, as well as providing application developers with tools to start building immersive worlds.
