5 Incredible Things You Can Do With Intel® RealSense™ Technology
With the rapid changes in technology over the last decade it has started to feel like we live in the future and now even more so with the advent of Intel® RealSense™ Technology in commercially available products. Imagine being able to control your device with natural hand movements or being able to get life-sized measurements from a photo. With Intel® RealSense™ Technology you don’t have to imagine, you can just do it!
So how does it work?
Devices sporting the Intel® RealSense™ 3D camera have three lenses: a conventional camera, an infrared camera, and an infrared laser projector. The lenses work together to allow the device to “sense” depth by detecting the infrared light bouncing off objects in front of it. The device then takes the visual data and in combination with innovative motion-tracking software is able to create a touch-free interface that responds to hand, arm, and head motions as well as facial expressions.So what can you do with the Intel® RealSense™ Technology found in the latest and greatest devices out there? Read on to find out!
1) Control Your Device With Natural Gestures
Imagine being able to interact with your computer as you would with people through facial expressions and natural gestures? Intel® RealSense™ 3D camera has made this a reality as it sees and processes more like we do, enabling it to respond to natural movement in three dimensions. Forget your mouse and touchscreens, controlling your device can be as simple as a wave! This is an especially exciting feature for gamers as it will allow them to play using head, hand and finger movements to play.
3) Green Screen without the Screen
Ever setup a video chat meeting only to realise last minute that your laundry couch is in full view? No problem with devices sporting an Intel® RealSense™ 3D camera as it is able to remove your chat background altogether, and even allows you to swap in a replacement and share content as if participants were in the same room!

3D scanning at home is super cool. I would love to be able to do that!
What amazing technology. It seems every day we get better and better products. This is definitely on my must try list. Would make blogging a little easier and I love all the features and ways intel just stepped it up once again. Thanks for sharing.
The background has to be the coolest thing ever! I always go crazy cleaning up the office when I have video conferences!
Love the green screen function–that’s amazing! I’d never clean again! 😉 Just kidding!
I have heard some great ideas here. I can only imagine how cool it is to control it with gestures… Thanks for sharing.
I didn’t know about point, shoot, and measure. That is a really nice feature.
Changing focus after shooting would be so useful. I had no idea that was possible!
the technology is amazing. I want to start making You tube videos at home and this would be incredible!
I’ve never even heard of this technology but it sure sounds really cool. So can you record yourself with the non-green screen and make family think you’re someone else in the world? haha!
The green screen part is really cool! I have always loved Intel!
This looks incredible! 3D scanning? Holy cow!
Wow, that is really cool! Such amazing features, so impressed!
These look really cool and could provide a ton of fun! The green screen seems like a great feature!
They are doing such amazing things with tech now! I love that background thing!! And changing focus!
technology is really amazing. It is truly the way to downsize the den
I didn’t know much about realsense tech before this post and it was really interesting. I’d love to have a 3D home scanner.
