Himax Launches New HE Series iToF Depth Decoder ICs

AI Summary

Himax Technologies announced the launch of its new HE Series indirect Time-of-Flight (iToF) Depth Decoder ICs, expanding its 3D sensing and machine vision portfolio. These ICs deliver high-frame-rate and high-precision 3D sensing, supporting up to 640 × 480 RAW data input at 240 fps and outputting 2D grayscale and 3D depth at up to 120 fps. The solution has already been adopted by industry partners like OFILM for robotics and AI vision applications, with the advanced HE-2 model featuring RGB camera integration and an edge AI Neural Processing Unit.
