(Phys.org) —Anil Nanduri, director of perceptual products and solutions at Intel has revealed to IDG News that the company is hard at work developing camera systems that will not only replicate what users have come to expect from products like Microsoft Kinect, but will surpass them in ways that until now have only been seen in science fiction movies. He says new 3D camera systems will be geared towards people and objects that are much closer, and because of that will be able to recognize much more detailed characteristics of objects they see.
