Depth-Data and Infrared View
What you get out of the flexx2

Out of the box, the flexx2 gives you a stream of depth-data with precise distance information from each pixel, a 3D pointcloud as visual representation of the scene, and an infrared 2D image that is independent of external light. These data streams are the foundation for a lot of different use-cases like:
Powerful SDK
The flexx2 comes with our powerful pmd Software Suite "Royale Viewer" and the "Royale API". We support many different software frameworks, libraries, and programming languages out of the box. Start developing with ROS 1/2, Python, OpenCV, OpenNI2, Matlab, Windows, and Linux/ARM. Just to name a few.

Real Time Data
ToF cameras provide real-time depth sensing, allowing for quick and accurate measurements. This makes them suitable for applications that require fast response times, such as augmented reality, robotics, and gesture recognition.

Aligned depth data and IR data
Depth data and IR data are based on the same set of rawdata and so they are perfectly aligned in both time and spatial domain. This offers advantages for image processing such as object detection and tracking.

Low-light and night vision capabilities
ToF sensors emit their own IR light and measure the reflected light to determine depth. This feature allows them to work effectively in low-light or even complete darkness, making them suitable for applications such as night vision cameras, security systems, or monitoring devices.

Robustness to environmental conditions
ToF sensors are less affected by environmental factors like ambient light, temperature, or humidity compared to other depth sensing technologies. This makes them more reliable and consistent in various settings, both indoors and outdoors.

Compact Design and low system complexity
ToF sensors are compact and can be integrated into different devices and systems easily.
