Intel has announced it is taking preorders for its new RealSense Tracking Camera T265. The Intel RealSense Tracking Camera T265 will allow developers to build autonomous devices, delivering high-performance guidance and navigation. The T265 uses proprietary visual inertial odometry simultaneous localization and mapping (V-SLAM) technology with computing at the edge and is key for applications that require a highly accurate and low-latency tracking solution, including robotics, drones, augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality. The T265 excels in situations where GPS isn't available such as a warehouse or agricultural usages.
The Intel T265 uses an Intel Movidius Myriad 2 vision processing unit (VPU) and motion sensors to enable it to be integrated into devices such as a mower that cuts perfectly precise swaths in a yard or field. It can use a combination of known and unknown data to navigate to its destination while avoiding obstacles such as humans and buildings. By using inside-out tracking, the device doesn't rely on external sensors to understand the environment. 6-degrees-of-freedom (6DoF) inside-out tracking is supplied by two onboard fish-eye cameras; each with a 170-degree range of view. The T265 costs $199 and will be available for shipping on February 28, 2019.
"Understanding your environment is a critical component for many devices. The T265 was designed to complement our existing Intel RealSense Depth Cameras and provide a quick path to product development with our next-generation integrated V-SLAM technology." -- Sagi Ben Moshe, vice president and general manager, Intel RealSense Group
