Mobile World Congress 2018

Introducing the latest 3D Time-of-Flight imager for mobile devices from Infineon and pmdtechnologies. The world’s smallest 3D Time-of-Flight module, developed by pmd, has become even smaller – and better! Featuring the new, smaller imager, integrated eye-safety features, a reduced PCB area and component count, SPI flash support and an optimized illumination concept with bare die VCSEL.

  • World’s smallest form factor
  • Sunlight robust
  • Minimal power consumption
  • Proven in mass production
  • Easy design-in
  • Fast once-a-lifetime calibration
  • BoM cost-optimized


It fits perfectly into today’s smartphones top bezel and unlocks a completely new level of applications for user experience. From secure 3D face unlock, face tracking and avatar animation to selfie background removal. On the world-facing side, the depth camera sets new standards for high sophisticated augmented reality, accurate 3D scanning and environmental monitoring.

Welcome to state-of-the-art 3D depth sensing, jointly developed by Infineon and pmdtechnologies!

Older robot vacuum cleaners used a random, inefficient, and slow cleaning pattern. Smart robots generate a map of their environment using sensors and simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) to localize, providing users with a floorplan from which areas can be selected for cleaning, or restricted from access. This whitepaper describes designing slimmer robots with new features using an approach with novel time-of-flight cameras.
