CES 2025 apr.ai Peering Depth Camera

Aprai Peering Depth Camera

It's not often I see something completely new in the computer vision space. There has been very little innovation in depth camera technology in the past decade. Oddly enough, Aprai have taken inspiration from insect neuroscience from the 1950s and turned it into a completely novel depth camera. They use a single camera and a motion mechanism to produce depth estimations. They move the camera in what they call a "peering motion" in order to create the motion parallax necessary for depth triangulation. I'm really interested to see where this technology goes.
