Which group Xiaomi Mi-Sense Depth Vision Module belongs to and how it is built
A subcategory covering cameras designed for depth measurement and spatial perception of the environment. It includes RGB-D devices, stereo cameras, and other solutions used in robotics, autonomous systems, and 3D perception pipelines.
A depth camera is a vision sensor capable of measuring depth — that is, the distance from observed objects to the camera. In robotics, depth cameras are used for 3D perception, obstacle avoidance, object detection, environment mapping, and manipulation support. They may operate on the basis of stereo vision, structured light, or ToF (Time-of-Flight) measurement. Depth cameras are an important component of perceptual systems in humanoid, mobile, and service robots.
A design class encompassing perceptual cameras that use active or passive stereo vision combined with RGB imagery to generate depth and spatial structure information about the environment.
