Intel Realsence 3D Technology with Windows Hello!

You may have heard the buzz about Windows 10's new feature named Windows Hello. In order to take advantage of this new feature you will need to have a special type of camera, this camera is called Intel realsence 3D. This takes advantage of 3D motion tracking to track your face in order to unlock your device. It can also be used for 3D scanning and interaction like Tony Stark has.

The revolutionary Intel RealSense 3D Camera uses depth-sensing technology so your PC sees more like you do. Use the added dimension to scan 3D objects, control your PC with gestures, or create a more lifelike video chat environment. Reinvented video chat lets you customize your background, and share content with friends as if you're in the same room together.

This 3D camera has some pretty interesting specifications to go with it's stylish build.

  • Full VGA Depth Resolution
  •  1080p RGB Camera
  • 0.2-1.2 meter range (Specific algorithms may have different range and accuracy)
  • USB 3.0 interface
At Microsoft's Launch of RealSense
At CES, Intel announced the RealSense technology to bring immersive, human interaction to devices. First products in the family include Intel RealSense 3D camera, the world's first and smallest integrated 3D depth and 2D camera module, and next-generation nuance Dragon Assistant designed for Intel RealSense technology. Both these will be shipping in various OEM devices from second half of 2014. 

An Intel RealSense camera contains the following four components. A conventional camera, an infrared laser projector, an infrared camera, and a microphone array. The infrared projector projects a grid onto the scene (in infrared light which is invisible to human eye) and the infrared camera records it to compute depth information. The microphone array allows localizing sound sources in space and performing background noise cancellation.
