Depth perception A Time of Flight sensor sends invisible infrared (IR) light pulses outward toward an object and then bounces it back to the sensor.

But just what is a Time of Flight camera? We asked an expert at Corning to find out how these sensors work and what fresh possibilities they bring to our phones.

The sensor emits a light signal, which hits the subject and returns to the sensor. The time it takes to bounce back is then measured and provides depth-mapping capabilities.

Time-of-flight sensors work differently: by using the time-of-flight data to calculate how long it takes the lasers to reach the object, it’s getting real-time, 3D depth data instead of a 2D map ...
