AD-FXTOF1-EBZ
Introduction
The AD-FXTOF1-EBZ is a proven hardware platform for depth perception. When paired with a
processor board from the Raspberry Pi or Nvidia family, it can be used for 3D software and algorithm
development. The solution has VGA resolution which means that objects can be detected to a higher
level of granularity than other 3D ToF solutions, an ability to detect depth in strong ambient light
conditions and multiple range detection modes for increased accuracy. A native and host SDK is
provided. The SDK also provides OpenCV, Python®, MATLAB®, Open3D and RoS wrappers so that
developers can use them to simplify application development.
The full system hardware includes:
ToF module
Interposer board
25 pins flex cable
15 pins flex cable
Screws and standoffs to attach the interposer board
to the ToF module
USB cable to supply 5V to the system
High level specification
Range
Near: 20cm to 180cm
Medium: 50cm to 300cm
Accuracy: < 2% for all ranges
Frame Rate up to 30fps dependent on processor board, OS and
interface to host computer
Resolution 640 x 480 pixels
Operating Temperature -20⁰C to 75⁰C
940nm VCSEL with 87⁰ x 67⁰ batwing profile diffuser
Receive lens: FoV 87⁰ x 67⁰ including 940nm BPF
5V @ 2A power input

Application Development
The system has options of USB, Ethernet or Wi-Fi to connect to a host computer, this
flexibility enables evaluation across a wide range of use cases and environments.
Sampling rates of up to 30fps are supported. Data is fed from the depth camera to the
processor board over MIPI-CSI interface. This data is read using V4L2 capture driver and
in-turn either feeds it to native SDK or sends it to the Host SDK over Ethernet, WiFi and
USB interfaces. Native/Host SDK provides this data to user applications for further use.
For ease of application, the SDK also provides OpenCV, Python and MATLAB wrappers
such that developers can simply use these wrappers to develop application.
The Depth Perception Rapid Prototyping Platform supports a wide range of operating
systems and programming languages. An open-source SDK that accompanies the
hardware platform enables you to extract depth data from the camera on the processor and operating system of your choice. Windows and Linux
support are built into the SDK as well as sample code and wrappers for various languages including Python, C/C++ and MATLAB. The SDK also
integrates with 3rd party technologies like OpenCV and RoS.
